Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Springfield, OH

Start with the calculator when you price gravel and aggregate delivery in Springfield, OH. Enter your length and width, pick a depth, and it sizes the load by the ton or yard. No guessing at the counter.

Ohio Rock Supply stocks 304 limestone. The clay loam till under this county drains slowly, so the material under your beds and drives matters as much as what you see.

Delivery to Springfield and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your quantity by the ton or the yard. Add the material to the cart, choose a delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck brings it to your site. Springfield sits in Clark County, and we also deliver to New Carlisle, Enon, South Charleston, South Vienna and Medway.

Have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. A full load needs room to spread as it dumps, and a spot close to the work saves you wheelbarrow trips. If the ground is soft from spring rain, pick a firm, high spot so the truck does not sink.

Materials for Springfield Projects

The decorative side of the yard gets busy here once the ground thaws. Beds, borders and dry creek beds carry the look of a property, and the right stone holds that look through freeze-thaw and summer heat. Here is what we see moving for those jobs.

• River Rock for decorative beds, borders, walkways and dry creek beds.
• Large River Rock for heavier dry creek beds and erosion work where runoff runs hard.
• Natural Pea Gravel for play areas, dog runs, pipe backfill and walkways.
• Shredded Mulch for beds and tree rings, holding moisture through summer heat.

A dry creek bed needs a base that will not pump when water runs through it. Set the rock over a compacted layer of 304 limestone so the bed keeps its shape instead of settling into the clay.

Ground and Conditions in Springfield

You are working over glacial till, clay loam to silty clay across gently rolling ground. There are low moraine ridges and flat wet swales between them, with sand and gravel down in the larger river valleys.

That clayey till drains slowly. Water ponds in the flat swales and low spots after spring rain and snowmelt until ditches or tile clear it. A base built over that wet clay will not compact well, so scrape the soft material out before 304 limestone goes down.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, which heaves wet clay under drives and patios and lifts shallow posts and pads. Frost depth is 32 inches in Columbus and Dayton, set by each local building department. Base, driveway and paver work starts once the ground thaws and the flats dry out in spring, and runs into late fall.

Watch bare graded soil after a heavy rain. It washes, and steep river valley sides slump. RipRap on a ditch bank or culvert outlet takes that energy before it cuts the bank away.

Questions Springfield Buyers Ask

How much material will my project need?

Use the calculator on the product page. Enter your length and width, choose the depth you want, and it returns the quantity by the ton or the yard for that material. Bulk stone, sand and soil all size the same way. Measure twice, and check your depth against what the material is doing, whether that is a base course or a thin decorative layer.

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Springfield?

Yes. Every bulk product is ordered by the ton or the yard, and you pick the delivery date at checkout. A dump truck delivers to your site in Springfield or anywhere in Clark County, including New Carlisle, Enon, South Charleston, South Vienna and Medway. Have the drop area clear so the driver can dump the full load in one pass.
