Bulk Gravel Delivery to Colfax, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Colfax, ND for contractors and homeowners alike. Some orders here are a single load for a driveway or a path, and some are staged for a build.

Colfax sits in Richland County, on the flat floor of the old glacial Lake Agassiz. That ground is deep silt and clay with very little stone in it, so nearly every project here begins with material hauled in.

Ground and Conditions in Colfax

A thin base on Red River Valley lake plain clay shows its failure fast. The clay sheds water slowly, so snowmelt and summer rain sit on yards, drives and field approaches instead of running off.

Once that water works into a shallow gravel layer, the stone pumps into the mud and the surface ruts.

The fix is a base thick enough to bridge the soft ground, with Class 5 as the compacted layer under the surface. Across this part of the state, the working season runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall.

Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter, and spring load restrictions slow hauling while the frost comes out.

Winters here are long and severe, with deep ground frost and a hard spring thaw that heaves gravel drives, approaches and township roads. Frost depth runs about 4 to 5 feet in this region.

The City of Fargo sets footings at 54 inches, and other jurisdictions publish their own figure.

Materials for Colfax Projects

Fines and screenings do the fine work on this ground. Stone Screenings, also called screenings or crusher fines, pack into a firm walking surface and bed pavers and flagstone.

They fill the joints between units and leave a path that holds its shape without turning soft underfoot.

For a path or walkway that wants a firmer, more decorative finish, 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel works well. North Dakota yards say pea rock more often than Natural Pea Gravel.

It suits walkways, play areas, dog runs and pipe bedding.

Under any of that, Class 5 is the standard North Dakota base gravel. It goes under driveways, parking pads, and shop or shed bases.

Class 13 is the surfacing gravel for an approach, lane or gravel drive where a binding, blade-friendly material is wanted rather than a full base course.

Where water needs to move, Washed Rock is the clean, open stone for drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains. It stays open because it carries no fines to pack tight.

Riprap is the heavy answer for coulee and river banks, culvert outlets and shoreline, graded Grade I, II and III here.

For lawns and grade repair, Top Soil is what North Dakota yards and suppliers call black dirt. It handles lawns, grade repair and bed prep.
