Bulk Material Delivery in Strasburg, IL

Illinois Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Strasburg, IL to your site. Water is the driver here.

Tight claypan subsoil sits close to the surface and stops rain moving down, so ground stays saturated for weeks. Coarse stone answers that.

Start with CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, for drives, pads and shed bases.

Materials for Strasburg Projects

Slope, swale and bank protection starts coarse. RipRap is heavy broken stone for bank protection, culvert outlets, pond edges and slope armoring.

Sizes below it handle drainage and bedding.

CA-7 is washed clean stone with no fines, for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches and French drains. CA-11 is the 3/4 inch clean washed stone sold alongside it for the same work.

For the smallest clean size, CA-16 chips bed permeable pavers and drain around tanks.

CA-6 is the Illinois base material: dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in. It builds driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and trench backfill.

Below the base come the bedding and surface materials. Lime screenings bed pavers and flagstone and backfill around pipe.

Torpedo sand is the coarse washed sand for concrete and leveling. Mason sand is finer, for brick and block mortar and paver joints.

Rounded stone covers the decorative end. Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas and fence post mix.

River gravel and large river rock build dry creek beds, borders and downspout splash areas.

Ground and Conditions in Strasburg

Across the Southern till plain and claypan country, the season runs longer than upstate at both ends. A wet winter and spring still keep sites soft well into April.

Late summer and fall are the reliable windows, so timing a delivery around them matters.

The claypan is the reason. It sits close to the surface and stops water moving down, so winter and spring rain perches on top.

Ground stays saturated for weeks and unbound base pumps under traffic.

Cold but shorter winters bring frequent freeze and thaw swings. That works on saturated clay and heaves drives and walks.

Thin loess bared of cover erodes in sheets and gullies, and banks scour where water runs hard. Coarse stone armors those edges.
