Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Yellow Springs, OH

What should you order for a bed, a dry creek bed or a muddy path? Start with gravel and aggregate delivery in Yellow Springs, OH, from Ohio Rock Supply. The clay loam here drains slowly, so decorative stone and drainage layers matter. Most projects begin with 304 limestone as the structural layer beneath the pretty stone.

Materials for Yellow Springs Projects

Landscape work here usually starts with a base and finishes with stone you actually look at. Here is what to order for each job.

Beds, Borders and Walkways

For decorative beds, borders and walkways, order River Rock. It comes in rounded sizes that sit well around plantings and along a path. For dry creek beds and heavier erosion work, step up to Large River Rock, which holds position when storm runoff pushes through.

Ground Cover and Play Areas

Natural Pea Gravel is the small rounded stone for play areas, dog runs and walkways. It packs into a firm surface and drains fast. Shredded Mulch holds moisture in beds and tree rings through the summer heat.

Base, Bedding and Drainage

Under all of it, 304 Aggregate Base gives you the compacted structural layer. Above that, Screenings level paver and patio bedding. For wet ground, Drain Rock carries water away from foundations and downspouts.

Ground and Conditions in Yellow Springs

Western and central Ohio sits on glacial till: clay loam and silty clay over gently rolling ground, with low moraine ridges and flat, wet swales between them. Sand and gravel in the larger river valleys drain quickly, but the clayey till does not.

That means water ponds in the low spots after spring rain and snowmelt until a ditch, tile or dry weather clears it. An under-built base on that clay will move. Use 304 limestone as a compacted base course, and add a clean drainage stone where water sits.

Work around the season. Base, driveway and paver work starts once the ground thaws and the flats dry out in spring, and runs into late fall. Frozen or saturated clay will not compact well. Cold winters also 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.

Yes. Choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard when you order online, then pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck brings the load to your site in Yellow Springs or elsewhere in Greene County. The calculator helps you set the quantity first.
