Bulk Material Delivery in Granada, MN

For gravel and aggregate delivery in Granada, MN, start with the water. Tight till and almost no fall drain slowly across this part of the state, so yards, drives and footing drains sit wet until something moves the water away.

Minnesota Rock Supply delivers Class 5, washed stone, sand and soil in bulk, ordered online by the ton or the yard.

Class 5 is the Minnesota base course, the compacted layer a drive or pad is built on. Washed stone handles the drainage side of the same job.

Materials for Granada Projects

Washed stone carries the drainage work here. Clear rock is the Minnesota way of saying washed with the fines taken out, and that is the difference that matters when water has to move.

Drainage Rock is the 1 1/2 inch clear rock for French drains, drywells, footing and foundation drains, and downspout runs. Water reaches the stone and keeps going instead of sitting against the foundation.

3/4 Clear Rock works for drainage beds, trench backfill and construction entrances. It also acts as foundation rock, the clean washed layer under a basement slab and around footing drains.

Granite Fines bed pavers, flagstone and patio stone, and they compact into garden paths. Minnesota granite fines come from the Crushed Stone quarried in the St.

Cloud belt.

Class 5 is the base for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and road base.

Driveway Gravel tops an existing drive or finishes over a compacted base.

Top Soil covers lawns, sod beds and planting beds. Black dirt is what Minnesota calls topsoil, usually bought screened or pulverized.

Ground and Conditions in Granada

Southern and western prairie till gives this part of the state a long working season, from the thaw into late autumn. Spring load limits go up on South and Central zone roads in early March and come off in April, so a delivery date early in the year is worth setting with that in mind.

The ground is gray, calcareous Des Moines lobe till, loamy to clayey and carrying shale brought down from the Dakotas, under deep black prairie soil. Water cannot drain away before it freezes, and heaving is worst on that tight, shale-rich till.

Cold winters with repeated freeze-thaw drive the drainage layer more than the surface does. Clean washed stone under a slab and around a footing drain gives water somewhere to go when the thaw starts.

Heavy summer storms bring sheet, rill and gully erosion on bare cropland and graded lots. Riprap armours culvert outlets and slopes against that runoff.
