Buy #73 Stone in Clay City, IN

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Clay City, IN by the ton or the yard. Indiana Rock Supply drops bulk material at your site. Start with #53 stone, the dense graded base that packs hard under drives, pads and slabs. Clay County sits on some of the thickest wind-blown silt in Indiana, so a firm base matters here.

Materials for Clay City Projects

Drives lead the list. Build the base first, then top it.

Layer it. Put #53 stone down first as a solid base, compact it in lifts, then cap it with #73 stone or driveway stone. The cap locks the surface and sheds water.

Wet ground changes the plan. Where water sits, use clean stone instead of dense graded. #8 stone, #57 stone and drain rock carry water and do not hold it.

Sand and soil finish the job. Use washed sand for leveling and bedding, stone screenings under pavers and flagstone, and screened topsoil where loess clay needs a growing layer.

Ground and Conditions in Clay City

Rain drives everything here. The Wabash and its tributaries run high, and low valley bottoms and old lake-bed flats drain slowly. When the river is up, water has nowhere to go.

That sets your base depth. A silty, slow-draining subgrade needs a thicker compacted base than dry ground. Cut the base short and the drive pumps, ruts and fails. Add a drainage layer of #8 stone or #57 stone at the edges.

Upland loess soils hide a fragipan that holds water near the surface in wet seasons. On those sites, drainage matters more than thickness.

Bare loess washes fast once its cover is stripped. Arm ditch banks and culvert outlets with rip rap before the next high water.

Timing counts. Winter and spring are the high-water months on the river bottoms. Low sites build best from late spring through fall, once water drops and the silt dries.

Winters are milder than up north, but repeated freeze-thaw still heaves gravel drives and softens wet subgrades. Frost depth is shallower here; the county or city building department sets the exact footing depth, so do not assume a northern figure.
