Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Gully, MN

Minnesota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Gully, MN for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and drainage runs. Class 5 is the base course most of that work starts from here, and it is the material to plan around.

This part of Polk County sits in lake, moraine and outwash country, so a drive or pad base has to suit ground that changes from sandy to tight within a short distance.

Materials for Gully Projects

Class 5 is the Minnesota name for a compacted base course. It goes down under driveways, parking pads, shed and garage slabs and road base, and it holds up because the fines stay in the mix and bind it together.

Order Class 5 when you are building the base itself.

For the surface layer over that base, Class 2 is the Minnesota surfacing class, a 3/4 inch crushed aggregate with fines. Minnesota yards sell it as Class 2 granite, buff limestone or red limestone depending on the quarry.

It is a tighter surface than a clean stone and it is what driveway gravel means here.

Where a drive or pad needs to bind and compact from the first pass, crusher run is crushed rock with the fines left in. Minnesota yards more often sell it by class or by a minus size than by that name.

Granite fines, also called screenings or stone screenings, bed pavers, flagstone and patios. Clear rock is the Minnesota way of saying washed with the fines taken out, which is why it drains where Class 5 does not.

Washed sand, sold as concrete sand, handles bedding and levelling under slabs and pavers.

On the soil side, black dirt is what Minnesota calls topsoil, and it is bought screened or pulverized for lawns and planting beds. For raised beds, garden soil is screened black dirt blended for planting.

Ground and Conditions in Gully

Water is the driver across this part of the state. Outwash sand takes it fast, but the moraine till between the lakes does not, and ground near lake and wetland margins sits close under the water table.

Snowmelt moves more water than any other event in the year. That is what decides whether a base drains or holds, and it is why the fines content matters as much as the stone size.

Lakeshore erosion from wind, wave and boat wake is a real problem across the lake country, and spring runoff cuts banks on the upper Mississippi and the Crow Wing. Riprap armours a shoreline or culvert outlet against ice and wave action.

Base, drive and paver work runs from the spring thaw into late autumn. Spring load limits go up on North and North-Central zone roads from March into May, and frozen ground stops compaction through the winter.

Winters here bring deep frost, worst where a sandy surface sits over tight till or a high water table with nowhere for the water to go as it freezes. The Minnesota Residential Code sets a 60 inch footing depth for its Zone I counties; that figure belongs to those counties and not to Gully.
