Minnesota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Dunnell, MN. Class 5 is the base course most of this work starts from, a compacted aggregate base for driveways, parking pads and shed floors.

Dunnell sits in Martin County, on the prairie till that runs across this part of the state.

Materials for Dunnell Projects

Coarse stone does the heavy work on slopes, swales and banks around Dunnell. Water that sheets off a graded lot or a farm field has to go somewhere, and the right open rock gives it a path that will not wash out.

RipRap is the first size to think about where a bank is cutting. It armours shorelines, streambanks, culvert outlets and slopes against wave action, ice and spring runoff.

Large River Rock suits dry creek beds and heavier decorative work. Round washed stone also gives light protection on a gentle slope.

Drainage Rock is usually a 1 1/2 inch clear rock in Minnesota. It goes into French drains, drywells, footing drains and downspout runs, and clear rock means the fines are washed out so water moves through it.

3/4 Clear Rock is the finer washed option. It works in drainage beds, trench backfill and as foundation rock under a slab, including the gas-permeable layer a passive radon system needs.

Class 5 brings the fines back in. That is what lets it bind and compact into a driveway or a pad, and it is the reason it sits under the coarser stone rather than beside it.

Smaller sizes finish the same projects. Granite Fines bed pavers, flagstone and patio stone, and they hold a compacted garden path.

Natural Pea Gravel covers walkways, play areas and exposed aggregate work.

For soil, Top Soil is what Minnesota calls black dirt, sold screened or pulverized for lawns and beds. Fill Dirt raises grade and backfills before a Class 5 course goes down.

Have the site reachable and clear before the date you pick. A dump truck needs room to pull in and a surface that will hold it.

Ground and Conditions in Dunnell

The working season here is long by Minnesota standards, running from the thaw into late autumn. Spring load limits go on South and Central zone roads in early March and come off in April, so early spring deliveries move on that schedule.

Across the Southern and western prairie till, the ground is tight. Loamy to clayey till with shale in it drains slowly, and much of the farmed ground runs on tile.

Closed basins hold water until it drains or evaporates.

That slow drainage is why open, washed stone matters on a drainage job. Fines-bearing material will not move water, so keep Class 5 for the base and clear rock for the drain.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze and thaw. Heaving is worst on the tight, shale-rich till where water cannot drain away before it freezes, which is where a clean drainage layer earns its place.

Heavy summer storms drive sheet, rill and gully erosion on bare cropland and freshly graded lots. RipRap and coarse stone on a swale or bank are how that cutting gets held back.

Questions About Stone and Delivery in Dunnell

What stone should I use for drainage in Dunnell?

Use a clean, washed stone with the fines taken out. Drainage Rock, usually a 1 1/2 inch clear rock in Minnesota, is the standard for French drains, drywells, footing drains and downspout runs.

3/4 Clear Rock works for drainage beds and the clean layer under a slab. Class 5 does not drain; it binds and compacts, which is what makes it a base.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Have the delivery spot reachable and clear, with room for a dump truck to pull in and turn around. The truck tips the load in one pile, so the ground under it should hold the weight.
