Bulk Gravel and Stone Delivery in Pierce County, ND
North Dakota Rock Supply brings gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Pierce County, ND to driveways, pads and yards. Class 5 is the base most ground here is built on.
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.

Ground conditions across Pierce County
Pierce County sits on the Souris Basin and Lake Souris plain, the flat to gently sloping bed of glacial Lake Souris. Clay and silt lie near the middle, with wave-washed till around the rim.
Wind-blown delta sand covers much of the southern half of the old lake plain. Snowmelt comes down from the north onto flat, slow-draining ground, and low ground takes water first.
That flat, slow-draining ground is why drainage layers matter here. Washed rock and 3/4 inch crushed rock give water somewhere to go under a pad or along a foundation.
Wind erosion and blowouts work on the sandy ground, and sheet wash moves bare clay. Riprap armors banks and outlets against spring runoff and wave action.
Long, severe winters bring deep ground frost and a hard spring thaw that heaves gravel drives and township roads. Frost depth is set by the city or county rather than by a statewide table.
Choosing the right material
Ground conditions change as you move out of this county. Rolette County sits in the Turtle Mountains, a wooded upland of hummocky glacial sediment over a bedrock outlier, with stony till on the rises and peaty, mucky ground in the hollows.
That stony till and mucky hollow ground calls for a different base approach than the clay and silt here. Where the ground stays wet, a clean drainage stone under the base matters more than extra depth of fines-bearing gravel.
Benson County lies in the Devils Lake Basin, rolling glacial till around a closed basin. Lake silt and clay and salt-affected ground sit on shorelines that have moved a long way in living memory.
Wells County is Drift Prairie, rolling glacial till with stone and boulders through it. Bands of sand and gravel run through old meltwater channels such as the Sheyenne and the James.
Those differences are in the ground, not in what anyone builds on it. For Pierce County ground, match the material to the job: Class 5 for a compacted base, Class 13 for a gravel surface, washed rock where water has to drain.
