Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Hazen, AR

For gravel and aggregate delivery in Hazen, AR, start with the ground. Flat Delta land and heavy clay hold rain where it falls, so a pad has to sit above the wet.

Arkansas Rock Supply delivers bulk material here by the ton or by the yard. SB-2 base is the dense graded crushed stone that carries a drive or a building pad once the grade is up.

Materials for Hazen Projects

Raising grade comes first on low Delta ground. Fill Dirt builds a pad up out of the wet before any base course goes on.

Once the pad is up, SB-2 Base takes the load. It is a dense graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.

Engineers and cities write the same material into street and parking standards as Class 7 base. Use that name when you are working to a written spec.

For a driveway, top the compacted base with Driveway Gravel. It surfaces an existing drive or caps a base on a county road property.

For a patio, bed the pavers on Screenings. Limestone fines give you a tight surface for bedding and joints.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is the washed size for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base.

Wet ground needs a place for water to go. Drain Rock handles French drains, dry wells and downspout runs.

Ground and Conditions in Hazen

Hazen sits on the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, where the ground runs to deep alluvial silt loam, silty clay and heavy clay. Locals call it buckshot and gumbo.

That clay barely takes water. Rain stands where it falls, field ditches and bayous drain slowly, and backwater can hold water for days.

An under-built base fails on that ground. Clay pumps, the stone sinks, and the surface breaks up long before the material wears out.

So build the pad up first with fill, then compact SB-2 base over it. Get the grade above the wet and the base has something to sit on.

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

Winters are short and mild, and frost is shallow across the Delta. Saturated clay is the winter problem, and a loaded truck will rut a drive deeply with no frost involved at all.
