Large River Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in Exeter, MO

Storm runoff moves fast here. It sheets off rocky slopes, cuts down graded ground, and pushes soil and chert gravel toward the creeks. Gravel and aggregate delivery in Exeter, MO starts with stone that holds that ground in place. Missouri Rock Supply stocks coarse stone for slope, swale and bank protection, plus base rock for the drives and pads that sit behind it.

Materials for Exeter Projects

Start coarse. The biggest stone does the heavy work on slopes, swales and creek banks, then you work down in size toward the surface you drive or walk on.

RipRap is the first line of defense. Use it on creek banks, pond dams, culvert outlets and any slope taking storm runoff. #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage, trench bottoms and construction entrances. Railroad Ballast goes where drainage has to be severe and the ground is soft.

Mid sizes build the load-bearing layer. Base Rock, sold locally as type 5 base or type 1 base, is the standard Missouri base for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes. Crusher Run compacts and binds because it carries fines, which suits drives and base courses that need to lock up.

Washed stone handles water without fines to clog it. #57 Limestone, called 1 inch clean or clean rock, is the usual choice for French drains, septic fields and concrete aggregate. Drain Rock covers foundation drains, downspout runs and drainage behind walls.

Finish with the fine end. Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and patios. Walkway Gravel surfaces paths that need to stay walkable.

Ground and Conditions in Exeter

Time your order around the working season. Spring is the wettest stretch, and storms can raise creeks quickly. Chert and rock in the ground slow digging more often than mud does, so a load that lands on a dry stretch of ground is easier to work than one sitting in a wet swale.

This is Ozark Plateau ground: cherty, rocky clay over limestone and dolomite, thin and stony on slopes and ridges, with a thin silty cap on some flatter uplands. Sinkholes, springs and losing streams are common. On the uplands, water drains underground through sinkholes and cracks in the bedrock, so keep soil and fine material out of those openings.

Frost is milder than northern Missouri, but January nights still average below freezing and days usually thaw, so freeze-thaw cycles are frequent. That matters for compaction and for how a base course settles. Frost depth is shallower than northern Missouri, and the local building code sets footing depth.
