Large River Rock and Bulk Aggregates for Flaxton, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Flaxton, ND, and the surrounding part of Burke County. Start with Class 5, the base gravel this market builds drives, parking pads and shop floors on.

Each product page carries a calculator, and you order by the ton or by the yard.

Flaxton sits on the Missouri Coteau, where the ground is stony, uneven till with pockets of sand and gravel worked into it. That mix of hummocks and low spots shapes what you need under a drive and what you need to hold a bank in place.

Materials for Flaxton Projects

Slope, swale and bank work around Flaxton starts with coarse stone. Water that runs off a hill, crosses a culvert outlet or cuts into a coulee edge needs weight and open voids, not fines.

The coarse end of the yard does that job, and the finer materials finish the surfaces around it.

Riprap is the heavy end of that work. It is graded Grade I, II and III here, and it armors coulee banks, culvert outlets and dam faces against spring runoff and wave action.

The size you want depends on how hard the water hits and how steep the bank stands.

Large River Rock suits dry creek beds, shelterbelt edging and heavier decorative work where you also want some erosion control. River Rock covers the smaller beds, borders and rock mulch, which holds up better than bark in North Dakota wind.

For drainage that has to move water rather than hold a bank, Washed Rock goes into drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains. 3/4" Crushed Stone handles bin and tank pads, pole barn floors and construction entrances.

Once the base and drainage are set, the surfacing materials come in. Class 13 is the binding, blade-friendly gravel for an approach, lane or gravel drive.

Class 5 is the compacted base under drives and pads. Scoria is the red burned-lignite clinker from the west of the state, and it surfaces paths, yards, lanes and parking areas.

Ground and Conditions in Flaxton

Base, driveway and paver work on the Coteau 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.

Time a delivery for that window and the material goes down when it can actually be worked.

Drainage across the Missouri Coteau is unintegrated. The sloughs and potholes are not connected and no stream runs through much of it, so snowmelt and rain collect in closed low spots.

Drives between the hills stay soft well into spring.

That is where a drainage layer earns its place. Washed rock under a foundation drain or a downspout run gives water somewhere to go instead of sitting against the till.

On the steep flank of the Missouri Escarpment, gully cutting and slumping where saturated till sits on shale are the erosion you plan around.

Winters here are long and severe, with deep ground frost and a hard spring thaw that heaves and softens gravel drives, approaches and township roads.

Frost depth in this part of North Dakota is set by the city or county rather than by a statewide table, so check with the local building official before you plan footings.
