Materials for Yates City Projects

Grading and bed prep start with soil, not stone. Screened topsoil goes down for lawns and final grade.

It is dark and silty in this part of Illinois.

Garden soil is a blended mix for raised beds, vegetable plots and planting areas. Fill dirt raises grade before a CA-6 base course goes down.

Once grade is set, CA-6 road base carries the load. It is dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in.

Use it for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and trench backfill.

Clean washed stone handles water. CA-7 is 1 inch clean stone with no fines, for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches and French drains.

CA-11 is the 3/4 inch clean stone Illinois yards sell alongside it.

CA-16 chips are 3/8 inch limestone chips for permeable paver bedding and drainage around tanks. Lime screenings bed pavers and flagstone.

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

Natural Pea Gravel and river gravel cover walkways and beds.

Ground and Conditions in Yates City

Water is the driver. Loess sheds rain fast on slopes and holds it in the flats.

Around Yates City that means a drive or pad sits wet at the bottom of the grade.

Where water stands, drainage stone does the work. CA-7 and CA-11 are washed clean stone with no fines, so water moves through instead of ponding.

Line a trench or a French drain with them and the runoff has somewhere to go.

Loess also gullies. Rill and gully erosion cuts into steep ground and cut slopes slump when they stay saturated.

Riprap armors banks, culvert outlets and pond edges where runoff concentrates.

Frost still lifts drives and walks each spring. The building official sets footing depth locally, so check with the county before you pour.

Yates City sits in Knox County, and delivery covers the rest of the county, including Galesburg, Abingdon, Knoxville, Wataga and Oneida.

Order online. Choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, then pick a delivery date at checkout.

A dump truck tips the load in one pile at the address you give.

Have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. Bulk loads are heavy and the pile stays where it lands, so pick a spot that will not block a door, a garage or a turn.
