Bulk Material Delivery in Dyess, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Dyess, AR, and the ground here shapes what you order. This is Delta country, flat and clay-heavy, so water sits where it falls.

SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas base material, a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in so it locks up under a roller.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, shed and building pads, and pipe bedding. The same material is written into street and sidewalk standards as Class 7 base when a job has to meet a spec.

Materials for Dyess Projects

Water is the problem on this ground, so washed stone earns its place. Clean stone has no fines to hold moisture, which is why it moves water instead of trapping it.

#57 Limestone is the workhorse washed size in Arkansas. It goes into French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and concrete aggregate.

3/4" Crushed Stone is a washed stone with no fines, used for drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing.

Drain Rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs. Arkansas suppliers often call it filter rock or simply name the size.

Smaller washed sizes finish tight work. #89 Crushed Stone suits close bedding and tight joints, while #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage and trench bottoms.

Under all of it, SB-2 Base is the compacted layer that carries the load. Screenings bed pavers and fill joints, and washed sand levels under slabs and pools.

Ground and Conditions in Dyess

Across the Mississippi Alluvial Plain the ground is deep alluvial silt loam, silty clay and heavy clay, with sandier ridges scattered through it. Clay like that barely takes water, so rain stands where it falls and drains slowly.

That is why a base course matters more than surface appearance here. A drive built straight onto wet clay pumps and ruts, while a compacted base spreads the load and keeps the surface above the soft layer.

Work runs all year. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint, and the midsummer dry spell that shrinks and cracks the clay is the best window for base work.

Frost is shallow across the Delta. Saturated clay, not frost, is what ruts a drive through the winter.

What gravel is best for a driveway in Dyess?
