Large River Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in Galesburg, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Galesburg, ND to your site. Class 5 is the base gravel here.

Galesburg sits on the Red River Valley lake plain, where deep silt and clay hold snowmelt and rain on yards and approaches instead of shedding it. That ground rewards stone chosen for drainage and bank protection.

Materials for Galesburg Projects

Coarse stone does the heavy work on slopes, swales and banks around Galesburg. Where water runs and ground is bare, size is what holds the soil in place through spring melt.

Riprap is the coarsest option. It armors coulee and river banks, culvert outlets and shorelines against runoff and wave action.

It is graded Grade I, II and III here.

Large River Rock builds dry creek beds and shelterbelt edging. It also handles heavier decorative and erosion work where a rounded stone suits the look.

3/4" Crushed Stone covers drainage, bin and tank pads, pole barn floors and construction entrances. It is crushed rock sold by inch size, not by class number.

Washed Rock is 1 inch washed rock, also called clean rock. It goes in drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains.

Stone Screenings and Class 5 finish the finer end. Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and pack into a walking surface; Class 5 builds the compacted base under drives and pads.

Ground and Conditions in Galesburg

Base, driveway and paver work 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 thaw that heaves and softens gravel drives, approaches and township roads. The City of Fargo sets footings at 54 inches; other jurisdictions publish their own figure.

The lake plain soil is deep silt and clay with very little stone in it. It sheds water slowly, so snowmelt and summer rain sit on yards and field approaches, and bare clay ground ruts and washes in sheets.

Spring flooding along the Red and its tributaries scours meandering banks. Riprap and large river rock on those banks hold the soil where water moves fastest.
