When a storm is on the way, the last thing you want is the wrong salt. Here’s a quick guide to the three types of salt we carry at Toronto Stone Supply, and how to choose.
Bulk rock salt
Bulk rock salt is the everyday workhorse for parking lots, driveways and laneways. It’s the most economical option when you’re covering large areas, and we sell it by the ton or by the triaxle and trailer load.
Treated salt
Treated salt is rock salt that has been treated with an additive, generally to help it start working faster and keep working in colder temperatures than plain rock salt. It’s a good choice for high-traffic areas and cold snaps. Ask us which treated product we have in stock.
Bagged salt
We carry both bagged rock salt and bagged treated salt. Bags are easy to store and spread by hand, which makes them a good fit for walkways, steps, storefronts and smaller properties.
Tips for a smoother winter
- Stock up before the storm. Demand spikes the moment snow is in the forecast.
- Store salt under cover to keep it dry and easy to spread.
- Match the product to the job: bulk for large areas, treated for high-traffic or very cold days, bagged for walkways and small sites.

We keep a large salt stockpile at our North York yard and we’re open for salt 24 hours a day, 7 days a week all winter. Pick up at 47 Ingram Dr, or have it delivered by the ton across the GTA or by the triaxle load across southern Ontario. See our bulk road salt page for details.
