Bulk Material Delivery in Scranton, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Scranton, ND, by the ton. Class 5 is the base gravel this part of the state builds on, and it goes under drives, parking pads and shop floors.

Scranton sits in Bowman County, on ground where water moves fast and arrives all at once. That shapes what you put down and how you place it.

Materials for Scranton Projects

Water is the thing to plan around here. Drainage is well developed across the Missouri Slope, so runoff comes down the draws and coulees in a hurry instead of standing.

Washed stone, French drains, drywells and downspout runs are how you move that water away from a building.

Washed Rock, sold as 1 inch washed rock or clean rock, is the coarse end of the drainage work. It goes into drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains.

3/4" Crushed Stone is a clean, open stone for drainage, bin and tank pads, pole barn floors and construction entrances. It stays open so water passes through.

3/8" Crushed Stone handles fine drainage, pipe bedding and a topping course over compacted base.

For a packed walking surface or paver bedding, Stone Screenings give you crusher fines that lock together underfoot. They also fill paver joints.

When you are building the base itself, Class 5 is the standard North Dakota base gravel. It is a compacted base for drives, parking pads and shed floors.

Class 13 is the surfacing counterpart: a binding, blade friendly gravel for an approach, lane or gravel drive where you want a surface rather than a full base course.

Red Scoria is burned lignite clinker from the west of the state, and it is what North Dakotans picture for paths, yards, lanes and parking areas.

Ground and Conditions in Scranton

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.

Underneath, the Missouri Slope is soft Fort Union sandstone, siltstone, claystone and lignite under a thin soil cover. There is swelling clay in places and only patchy glacial material.

That ground matters because the water does not sit. It cuts.

Gully cutting in soft shale and claystone is the pattern on the Missouri Slope, and a drive that has no drainage under it gets torn apart by runoff arriving all at once.

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 is set by the city or county rather than by a statewide table.

So the drainage layer earns its place. Washed rock under a downspout or in a French drain gives the water somewhere to go before it reaches the base.
