Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Hoople, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Hoople, ND for contractors and homeowners alike. Some buyers are building a shop pad or a new approach; others are topping up a lane that has thinned out.

Class 5 is the base most of that work starts from here.

Hoople sits in Walsh County on the Red River Valley lake plain, where deep silt and clay carry very little stone of their own. That is why the material for a drive or a pad arrives by truck rather than coming out of the ground on site.

Materials for Hoople Projects

Base and driveway surfacing carry the work here, and Class 5 leads it. Class 5, also called Cl 5 or crushed gravel base, is the standard North Dakota base gravel.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, and shop and shed bases. Order it at Class 5.

Class 13 is the surfacing side of the same idea. It binds and blades well, which suits an approach, a lane or a gravel drive where you want a finished surface rather than a full base course.

See Class 13.

For topping up a lane, an approach or a yard that has thinned out, road gravel, also called driveway gravel, is the material to look at. It is ordered at Driveway Gravel.

Water is the other half of the job. Washed rock, also called 1 inch washed rock, clean rock or drain rock, is clean stone for drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains.

It is ordered at Washed Rock.

Sand and soil round out a site. Washed sand, also called concrete sand, is bedding and leveling sand under slabs and flatwork, ordered at Washed Sand.

Black dirt, which is what North Dakota yards call screened topsoil, is for lawns, grade repair and bed prep, ordered at Top Soil.

Ground and Conditions in Hoople

Start with where the water goes. Across the Red River Valley lake plain the ground has almost no fall, and the lake clay sheds water slowly.

Snowmelt and summer rain sit on yards, drives and field approaches instead of running off.

That changes what a base has to do. A drive that holds water at the edges softens, and a soft base ruts under a truck.

A clean stone layer under the surface gives that water somewhere to go before it works on the base.

Spring is the other pressure. The Red River flows north, so the lower end of the valley is often still frozen when the upstream thaw arrives, and flooding along the Red and its tributaries scours banks and cuts channels.

Bare clay ground also sheets and ruts through the melt.

Winters are long and severe, with deep ground frost and then a hard thaw that heaves and softens gravel drives, approaches and township roads. Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter, and spring load restrictions slow hauling while the frost comes out.

That sets the working season. Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall, and the timing of a delivery matters as much as the material on it.

Delivery to Hoople and the Surrounding Area

Order online, choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout. Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before you order.

A dump truck then tips the material on site in one pile.

Have the drop area clear before the truck arrives. Bulk loads are heavy, and soft ground after a thaw is the wrong place to put one.

A firm, dry spot near the work keeps the pile where you can move it.

Hoople is in Walsh County, and delivery covers the surrounding county as well, including Grafton, Park River, Minto, Fordville and Edinburg. If your site is outside the city limits, the same online ordering applies.
