Bulk Gravel and Stone Delivery in Clinton County, IL
If you are building a driveway, setting a patio base or running drainage, you are ordering gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Clinton County, IL. Illinois Rock Supply sells it in bulk, by the ton or by the yard, and a dump truck tips it on site.
Start with CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone that carries the fines and acts as the base under a drive, a parking pad, a shed floor or a trench backfill. Around here the ground it sits on is slow, so the base does the heavy work.
Materials Delivered in Clinton County
CA-6 is the Illinois base material: crushed limestone with the fines left in. Order it for driveways, parking pads, garage and shed bases, and trench backfill.
Clean washed stone is a different job. CA-7 and CA-11 are the one inch and 3/4 inch washed sizes for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches, French drains and concrete flatwork.
CA-16 chips, the 3/8 inch size, bed permeable pavers and top a compacted base.
Beyond those, the yard carries fill dirt for raising grade before a base course goes down, river gravel for beds and dry creek beds, riprap for bank protection and culvert outlets, and shredded mulch for beds and tree rings.

Ground Conditions Across Clinton County
Across the Southern till plain and claypan country, the subsoil is a tight claypan that sits close to the surface and stops water moving down. Winter and spring rain perches on top of it, and ground stays saturated for weeks.
When that saturated ground is under an unbound base, traffic pumps it and the surface breaks up. That is the failure a thin base shows here, and the answer is a base course that spreads the load instead of a skim of stone.
Where the thin loess is bared, sheet and gully erosion follow. Riprap armors banks and culvert outlets in this part of the state.
Late summer and fall are the reliable working windows; a wet winter and spring keep sites soft well into April.
Frost depth is about 30 to 36 inches and the local building department sets it. Frequent freeze and thaw swings work on saturated clay and heave drives and walks.
That figure is a footing depth set by the official, not a gravel base depth.
Choosing the Right Material
Marion County shares the Southern till plain and claypan country ground, so the material logic there is the same as it is here. Madison County and St.
Clair County sit on deep loess over older Illinoian drift, with dissected bluffs and steep ravines.
That heavier relief changes the drainage choice. On a slope in that ground, water moves fast and a clean washed stone such as CA-7 or CA-11 carries it away, while CA-6 stays the compacted base under a drive or pad.
Pick by the job: CA-6 for what carries traffic.
