Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Sherwood, AR

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Sherwood, AR online from Arkansas Rock Supply. Pick your material, size the load, set a delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck tips it on site.

Start with SB-2 base for drives and pads. Add topsoil, garden soil or fill dirt when the job is grading and bed prep instead.

Materials for Sherwood Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here, so soil and fill carry the load. Top Soil is screened for lawns, grading and bed prep over rocky clay or heavy river ground.

Garden Soil goes into raised beds, vegetable gardens and planting areas. Fill Dirt raises low ground and builds a pad up out of the wet before a base course goes on.

Once the grade is set, the base goes down. SB-2 Base is the crushed stone Arkansas crews call for, a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus with the fines left in so it locks up under a roller.

When a written standard applies, that same material is specified as Class 7 base or Class 7 aggregate base course. Use Crusher Run where a finer dense-graded material that binds and compacts is wanted.

Washed stone handles water. #57 Limestone is the workhorse size for 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. Both sizes stay open and pass water.

Sand and decorative stone finish the job. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pools, and Mason Sand serves brick, block, stone work and paver joints.

For beds, borders and dry creek beds, Arkansas River Rock is the rounded washed stone buyers here call river gravel or creek gravel.

Ground and Conditions in Sherwood

Water drives the material choices around Sherwood. Rain and storm runoff come off the higher ground and concentrate where the slope flattens out across the Central Arkansas fall line.

Tight clay subsoils and flat terraces hold that water instead of shedding it. Ground like that softens badly under traffic, and a soft subgrade is the reason a proper base depth matters more than the surface stone.

The belt itself mixes gravelly rocky clay loam, sandy coastal-plain soils and deep river silt and clay. Expect the ground to change across a single property.

On a cut lot, bare clay slopes wash in a thunderstorm, so cover ground as soon as the grade is set.

Work runs all year here. Winter rain on clay and midsummer heat set the limits, not frozen ground.
