Large River Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in Clifton Hill, MO

Start with the calculator, then pick your material. Missouri Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Clifton Hill, MO, and sizing the load online takes a minute. Base rock is the backbone here, and it goes down over the silty loess and dense glacial clay till that covers this part of Randolph County.

Once you know your quantity, the rest is choosing the right stone for the job. Slopes and wet ground usually decide that for you.

Materials for Clifton Hill Projects

Runoff cuts rills and gullies in the loess and till slopes around here, worst on bare or freshly graded ground. Coarse stone is how you armor those spots, and it is also how you slow water before it reaches a culvert or a creek bank.

Order the list from coarsest to finest and the choices get simpler. Heavy, open-graded stone goes on slopes and swales. Dense base material goes under drives and pads.

Drain Rock handles French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs. Crusher Run is for drives and pads where you want a compacting, binding material with fines. For a finished surface, Driveway Gravel tops a compacted base rock course, and Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and patios.

Clean rock means washed stone with no fines. Keep it out of base work, because base rock and crusher run need those fines to lock together.

Delivery to Clifton Hill and the Surrounding Area

Order online and choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard. The calculator does the conversion so you are not guessing at the pile size.

At checkout you pick a delivery date that fits your schedule. A dump truck then brings the load to your site and places it where you want it dumped.

Coverage runs through Randolph County, including Moberly, Huntsville, Higbee, Cairo and Clark. If your project sits outside Clifton Hill but inside the county, choose your delivery date the same way at checkout.

Ground and Conditions in Clifton Hill

Water perches on the clay subsoil and stands on flat ground from late fall into spring. That is the season to plan around, not the season to build in.

Upland clay stays wet and soft through that stretch, so base and driveway work goes best from late spring into fall, between the wet season and the first hard freeze. Build on soft clay and your compacted course will not hold.

January nights here average well below freezing while many days thaw, so the ground freezes and thaws over and over. That cycle is hard on a drive with poor drainage, which is why an open-graded layer under the surface pays off. Footing depth is set by the local building code.

What stone should I use for drainage in Clifton Hill?

Washed stone with no fines lets water move. Use 1 inch clean, sold locally as #57 stone, for French drains, septic fields and downspout runs. #67 stone works at a slightly smaller washed size. For heavier flow, #4 crushed stone or rip rap arm slope toes, swales and creek banks. Never use base rock or crusher run for drainage, because the fines in them hold water instead of passing it.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Pick your dump spot and make sure the truck can reach it. Clear overhead limbs and wires, and keep parked vehicles out of the lane. Mark anything you do not want driven over, and put down a tarp or board if you want the pile off the grass. If the ground is soft from a wet spell, tell us where the driver should stop so the load lands where you need it.
