Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Leland, IL

Gravel and aggregate delivery in Leland, IL runs on the working season. The ground here thaws in spring and freezes again in late fall, and frozen ground stops compaction.

Illinois Rock Supply delivers bulk material to LaSalle County through that window.

Most drives and pads start with CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone this market calls road base. Order it online and a truck tips it on site.

Materials for Leland Projects

Base and driveway surfacing is where most Leland work begins. CA-6 is dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in.

It builds a compacted base for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage floors, and trench backfill.

Driveway Gravel resurfaces a drive that is already there or tops a compacted base. Crusher Run is the secondary name for crushed stone with the fines left in, and it does the same base work.

Washed stone is the other family you will need. CA-7 and 3/4" Crushed Stone are clean washed stone with no fines.

Both bed pipe and drainage trenches and sit under concrete flatwork.

CA-16 Chips are small 3/8 inch chips for permeable paver bedding, drainage around tanks, and topping a compacted base. Drain Rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs.

Sand and soil round out a project. Washed Sand, which Illinois yards call torpedo sand, is a coarse washed sand for concrete, leveling and bedding.

Mason Sand is finer and goes into mortar, paver joints, sandboxes and volleyball courts.

Top Soil is screened prairie topsoil, dark and silty, for lawns, grading and bed prep. Garden Soil fills raised beds and vegetable plots.

Fill Dirt raises grade before a CA-6 base course goes down.

Decorative stone finishes beds and borders. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is rounded washed gravel for walkways, play areas and fence post mix.

River Gravel and Large River Rock handle dry creek beds, borders and downspout splash areas.

Ground and Conditions in Leland

Water is the driver on the Northern Illinois till plains and Rock River country. Snowmelt and spring rain fall on ground that is still frozen, so the water moves across the surface instead of soaking in.

Tight till and a high water table hold what does get down.

That matters for what you put under a drive or a pad. A clean washed stone layer like CA-7 or CA-11 gives water somewhere to go, while a fines-bearing material like CA-6 compacts into a firm base.

They do different jobs.

The other side of the region drains almost too fast, where sand plains let water drop straight through. Leland sits in LaSalle County on the till side, so pooling and soft spots after a thaw are the usual concern.

Frost action is heavy in unbound base and shallow footings across the northern counties. Frost depth runs about 42 inches there, and the local building department sets it.

Follow that figure for footings rather than guessing at it.

The working season runs from the spring thaw into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, so plan base and driveway work around it.
