Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Crystal, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Crystal, ND. Start with Class 5 for a drive, a parking pad or a shed base.

This is flat Red River Valley lake plain ground. Snowmelt and summer rain sit where they land, so the stone you put down has to move water as well as carry a truck.

Delivery to Crystal and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your quantity by the ton or by the yard. Each product page carries a calculator to help you size the load.

Choose a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the material on your site. The load arrives in one pile.

Crystal sits in Pembina County, and delivery covers the surrounding towns, including Cavalier, Walhalla, Drayton, Pembina and Neche.

Materials for Crystal Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of yards here. Beds, borders and ground cover hold up to wind far better than bark, and they do not need replacing each spring.

Use River Rock for decorative beds and rock mulch. Use Large River Rock for dry creek beds, shelterbelt edging and heavier erosion work.

For a dry creek bed that has to move water, line it with larger stone and let the smaller rock sit on top. Riprap armors banks, culvert outlets and shorelines against spring runoff.

A driveway starts with base. Class 5 is the standard North Dakota base gravel, and it goes under drives, parking pads and shop floors.

Surface an approach or a gravel lane with Class 13. It binds and blades well where you want a finished driving surface rather than a full base course.

Where a lane has thinned out, Driveway Gravel tops it up. For a red surface on paths, yards and parking areas, Scoria is the burned lignite clinker North Dakotans picture by that name.

Drainage stone matters on clay ground. Washed Rock goes in drain tile beds, sump discharge runs and foundation drains.

Pea rock and black dirt round out most yard work. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel covers walkways, play areas and pipe bedding, and Top Soil handles lawns, grade repair and bed prep.

Ground and Conditions in Crystal

The ground across the Red River Valley lake plain is deep silt and clay with very little stone in it. Sand and gravel beach ridges mark the old shorelines along the western edge.

That clay sheds water slowly, and the valley floor has almost no fall. Melt and rain sit on yards, drives and field approaches instead of running off.

An under-built base shows it first. Clay holds the water, frost heaves the surface, and the gravel ruts and pumps where the subgrade never drained.

Spring flooding along the Red and its tributaries scours banks and sheets across bare clay. Riprap at a culvert outlet or a bank face takes that hit instead of your ground.

Winters here are long and the ground frost is deep, then a hard thaw heaves and softens gravel drives, approaches and township roads. Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall.
