Order #53 Stone and Crushed Stone in Jasper County, IN
Start with the math. Measure the area, pick a depth, and figure the tons before you call anyone for gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Jasper County, IN. Most jobs here run on #53 stone, the dense graded base Indiana crews order by habit.
Indiana Rock Supply delivers bulk material by the ton across the county. Ground here swings from sandy outwash plains to clay loam till, so the base depth you need can change from one side of the road to the other.

We stock the sizes Jasper County crews ask for by name. Sizes are listed coarsest to finest, with the job each one handles.
#53 stone carries most of the load here. 53, and it packs hard once watered and rolled. Order it for a new drive, a parking pad, a shed base, or the layer under pavers and a slab. If you want a smoother surface on top, cap it with #73 stone or driveway stone.
For water, look at Drain Rock and #67 Stone. Both work in French drains and downspout runs. For bedding under brick and flagstone, use Stone Screenings. Lawn and bed prep starts with Top Soil or Fill Dirt where grade has to come up first.
Ground Conditions Across Jasper County
Timing drives the schedule here. Low, ditched ground and muck stay soft the longest after late winter and spring rain. Base and driveway work runs best from late spring through fall. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, so a load dropped in January may sit until the thaw.
The ground itself is a mix of sand and clay. You get dune, beach ridge and old lake plain sand near Lake Michigan, wide sandy outwash plains and drained former marsh with pockets of muck in the Kankakee basin, and clay loam glacial till on the moraine ridges and till plains between them.
That split changes how you build. On the flat sand plains and the ditched former marsh, the water table sits high, so low ground stays wet after rain and snowmelt. There, dig out the soft spots, put down a drainage layer of clean stone, then build the base. On the clay till ridges, water sheds slowly and frost heaves gravel drives. Use a thicker compacted base and keep the surface crowned so it drains.
Winters here are long and cold, with repeated freeze-thaw that softens subgrades when the thaw comes. Frost depth is among the deepest in Indiana, and local building departments set the figure for footings. Plan base depth for that movement, not for a dry summer week.

Order online and size the load yourself. Bulk material sells by the ton or by the cubic yard, and the two are not the same number. Enter the area and the depth you want in the calculator, and it does the conversion. A thin layer is typical for a topping layer; a new base usually runs deeper.
A bulk delivery means a dump truck backed as close to the work as it can safely get. On a long drive, the driver spreads as he pulls forward. On a tight lot, the pile lands where the truck can reach and you move it from there. Flag any overhead wires, low branches or soft ground when you order.
We deliver to Rensselaer, De Motte, Remington, Wheatfield, Fair Oaks and the surrounding county roads. Lead time depends on the material and the season, so order ahead once the ground is workable.
Choosing the Right Material
Ground next door is not always your ground. Starke County sits in the same Lake Michigan shore, Calumet and Kankakee sand country zone as Jasper, so the sand, muck and clay mix is similar and the same drainage-first approach applies.
White County and Benton County sit in the Central and northeast till plain, a flat to gently rolling plain of dense glacial till. That ground is heavier clay than most of Jasper County, so a base there often needs more depth and better drainage than a sandy pad here.
Within Jasper County, let the job pick the stone. A new drive on sandy outwash takes #53 stone compacted in lifts. A wet low spot needs clean stone first, then base. A finished drive gets #73 stone or driveway stone on top, and a walkway gets Natural Pea Gravel or walkway gravel.
