Bulk Gravel Delivery to Oakville, WA

If you are planning gravel and aggregate delivery in Oakville, WA, the material depends on the job. Washington Rock Supply sells bulk gravel, stone, sand and soil for drives, pads, paths and drainage.

On ground that holds water, 5/8 minus is the surfacing course most drives here start with because the fines stay in and it packs hard.

Ground and Conditions in Oakville

Across the Lower Columbia, Chehalis valley and the Willapa Hills, the fine-grained terrace and hill soils hold water rather than shedding it. Valley flooding and slow drainage are the winter pattern in this part of the state.

A drive or pad built straight on that ground shows the problem fast. The surface ruts, pumps under a tire and loses its shape after a wet stretch.

The fix is a free-draining course under the surface material. That means a base course with larger top size and fewer fines, then a compacting top course over it.

The working season runs October to April, and exposed unworked soil is generally limited to two days. Grading in the river valleys is planned around the winter flood season as much as the rain.

Materials for Oakville Projects

For paths, side yards and firm walking surfaces, 1/4 minus is the material to know. It is the fine end of the minus range, so it packs down tight underfoot and holds a clean edge on a garden path.

Order it as Walkway Gravel.

Where a path meets a patio or a set of steps, crusher dust beds the pavers and fills the joints. It is a minus product, so it compacts rather than drains.

It is listed as Stone Screenings.

If you want the joints to drain instead, 3/8 clean is the washed counterpart. It goes in permeable paver joints and small drain runs where fines-free stone is wanted.

See 3/8" Crushed Stone.

For the drive itself, 5/8 minus, also called crushed surfacing top course or CSTC, is the Washington default. Crushed rock with the fines left in, it packs hard and sheds water instead of soaking it up.

It is sold as 5/8 Minus.

Under that, 1 1/4 minus, or crushed surfacing base course, carries the load on soft wet ground. It sits below the top course.

It is listed as 1 1/4 Minus.

Where water has to leave the site, drain rock, also called 7/8 clean, keeps its voids in a footing drain or infiltration trench. It is sold as Drain Rock.
