3/4 Inch Crushed Stone and Bulk Aggregates for Riverdale, GA

Start with the math, then pick the stone. Gravel and aggregate delivery in Riverdale, GA runs on tonnage, so measure your length, width and depth first and convert to tons before you order. Georgia Rock Supply sells graded aggregate base, washed stone, sand and soil in bulk. Around here the ground is red clay subsoil over weathered rock, and it holds water once it is saturated.

That is why drainage stone matters as much as base stone on a Riverdale job.

Drainage drives most of what we load in this market. Washed stone, French drains, drywells and downspout runs all need clean, open-graded rock that lets water move instead of trapping it. Here is how the sizes run, coarsest to finest.

For a French drain or a drywell, #57 granite is the workhorse. It is washed, so the voids stay open and water reaches the pipe instead of sitting in fines. Georgia #57 is usually Crushed Stone, and it also tops a drive or goes into concrete work.

Downspout runs and drainage behind a wall do well on drain rock, especially where red clay holds water against a foundation. For a smaller trench or pipe bedding, #89 crushed stone fits tight spaces and finishes walkways.

Where a drive or pad needs a compacting, binding layer, GAB (Graded Aggregate Base) is the standard Georgia base. Crusher Run does the same job under pads and patios. Top either one with driveway gravel for the finished surface.

Ground and Conditions in Riverdale

Timing is the first call on any Riverdale job. Work runs most of the year here, and what stops trucks and base work is saturated red clay after a long wet spell, a winter rain, or tropical storm remnants pushing through.

Red clay sheds water fast off slopes but holds it once saturated. Flat spots stay wet, and a base laid on wet clay turns soft and ruts under load. So strip and proof-roll before you place stone, and keep a drainage layer under the base where water collects.

Bare red clay also washes away quickly on slopes, cut banks and new grading, carrying sediment into ditches and streams after heavy storms. Rip rap and larger stone armor those spots. Light freezes are common from November into March, and the Georgia residential code sets a 12 inch minimum footing depth, so put footings below that line.
