Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Monterey, IN

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Monterey, IN online. Pick your material, size the load by the ton or yard, and Indiana Rock Supply drops it at your driveway or job site. Start with #53 stone, the dense graded base this part of Pulaski County builds on. It packs hard under drives, pads and slabs.

Ground here runs wet. Sand plains and old marsh sit on a high water table, so low spots stay soft after rain and snowmelt. Plan the base and the drainage before the first load lands.

Materials for Monterey Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most jobs here. Fix the grade, then build on it.

• Top Soil: screened topsoil for lawns and beds over heavy clay or thin rocky ground. Spread it, work it in, seed it.
• Garden Soil: raised beds and planting areas. Loose, workable, ready to plant.
• Fill Dirt: raise grade, fill low spots and backfill before a #53 stone base goes down.

Then comes the base and the surface. #53 Stone carries driveways, parking pads and shed bases. Top it with #73 Stone when you want a tighter, smoother surface. Driveway Gravel resurfaces an existing drive.

Sand and decorative stone round out the order. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs. Mason Sand sets brick and block and fills paver joints. RipRap armors ditch banks and culvert outlets, and River Rock finishes beds and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Monterey

Water drives every decision here. Rain and snowmelt land on flat sand plains and ditched former marsh, and the water table sits high. Low ground stays wet long after the storm passes.

So build for drainage. Put Drain Rock or #57 Stone in a French drain or downspout run and give the water a path away from the slab. Use clean stone, not a material with fines, or the voids fill and the drain quits.

Clay till ridges shed water slowly. On those, dig the base deeper and compact in lifts. Long freeze-thaw cycles heave gravel drives on wet or clay ground, and the thaw softens subgrades. Frozen ground stops compaction, so base and driveway work runs best from late spring through fall.

Delivery to Monterey and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives on a dump truck and gets tipped where you want it. Have the drop spot clear and reachable, with room for the truck to pull out. Point the driver to firm ground. Soft, low ground and muck can swallow a loaded truck.

Order online by the ton or the yard. Measure your area, pick a depth, and the calculator sizes the load. A driveway base needs a thicker compacted layer than a bed or a topping. Topsoil and garden soil go down by area and depth instead.

We deliver across Pulaski County, including Winamac, Francesville, Medaryville and Star City.

Questions from Monterey Buyers

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Monterey?

Yes. Order by the ton or by the cubic yard, whichever suits the job. Stone and sand usually price and ship by the ton; topsoil, garden soil and mulch often go by the yard. Punch your measurements into the calculator and it converts area and depth into the quantity you need. Then place the order online and we schedule the delivery.

What stone should I use for drainage in Monterey?

Start with clean, single-size stone. #57 Stone and Drain Rock handle French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs. #8 Stone works for underdrains and pipe bedding. Skip anything with fines, because fines clog the voids. On flat, wet ground, run the drain to a daylight outlet so water has somewhere to go.
