Bulk Gravel Delivery to St. Anthony, ND

Planning gravel and aggregate delivery in St. Anthony, ND usually starts with one job: a driveway that needs rebuilding, a shop pad going in, or a drainage run that has to move water away from a foundation.

North Dakota Rock Supply sells the material for all three by the ton or the yard.

Most base work here starts with Class 5. Across the Missouri Slope it sits on soft Fort Union sandstone, siltstone and claystone under a thin soil cover, so a base has to carry the load the ground beneath it will not.

Ground and Conditions in St. Anthony

Ground across the Missouri Slope is soft Fort Union sandstone, siltstone, claystone and lignite under a thin soil cover. Swelling clay turns up in places, and glacial material is only patchy.

Water moves fast down the draws and coulees here instead of standing. The problem is runoff arriving all at once, and that is what cuts a drive apart rather than ponding on it.

Gully cutting in soft shale and claystone, slumping on steep cut slopes, and shoreline erosion along the Missouri are the erosion patterns this part of the state deals with. A thin base course fails first at the edges, where water leaves the gravel and takes the fines with it.

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

Materials for St. Anthony Projects

Fines and screenings do the detail work on paths and walkways around St. Anthony.

Screenings pack into a firm walking surface and bed pavers and flagstone, holding a line where clean stone would let a path edge wander.

Class 5 is the base course for driveways, parking pads, and shop and shed bases. It is also called Class 5 gravel, Cl 5, or Class 5 aggregate base.

If you are surfacing an approach or a gravel lane and want a binding, blade-friendly gravel rather than a full base course, Class 13 is the material for that job.

For paths, yards, lanes and parking areas, Scoria gives a red surface. It is burned lignite clinker from the west of the state, and it is what North Dakotans picture when they say scoria.

Drain work takes clean stone. Washed Rock, also called 1 inch washed rock, clean rock or drain rock, goes into drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains.

Stone Screenings, also called screenings or crusher fines, bed pavers and flagstone, fill joints and make a packed walking surface.

Walkways, play areas, dog runs and pipe bedding take 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel, which suppliers here call pea rock. For lawns, grade repair and bed prep, Top Soil is what yards and suppliers around the state call black dirt.
