Order #53 Stone and Crushed Stone in Morgan County, IN
Planning a driveway, a patio base or a drainage run? Indiana Rock Supply handles gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Morgan County, IN. Start with #53 stone. It is the dense graded base with fines that packs hard, and it is what most jobs here begin with.
Much of the county sits on dense glacial till with heavy clay, so water has nowhere to go. That shapes every base and drainage decision below.
Materials Delivered in Morgan County
We stock the materials Indiana crews actually ask for by name. Here is how the families break down.
Base Stone
#53 stone is the standard Indiana base. Order it for driveways, parking pads, shed bases, and base under pavers and slabs.
#73 stone is a finer dense graded stone with fines and a smaller top size. Use it to top and resurface drives, parking areas and shoulders where a tight, smooth-packing surface is wanted.
Washed and Clean Stone
- 3/4 inch crushed stone for drainage beds, drive surfacing and construction entrances.
- #57 stone for drainage, French drains and concrete aggregate.
- Drain rock for French drains, foundation drains, downspout runs and wet spots on flat ground.
- Rip rap for stream bank, ditch and culvert outlet armoring.
Sand, Soil and Decorative
- Mason sand for brick and block work and paver joints.
- Washed sand for leveling, bedding and base under slabs.
- Screened topsoil for lawn and bed prep over heavy clay.
- Fill dirt for raising grade and backfill before a #53 base goes down.
- River rock and Natural Pea Gravel for decorative beds, walkways and dry creek beds.
Ground Conditions Across Morgan County
The county spans two different ground zones, and they behave nothing alike.
Around Martinsville, Mooresville, Monrovia and Paragon you are on a flat to gently rolling plain of dense glacial till with loamy clay. Late winter and spring rain sits on this ground because it has no easy outlet. That is why base depth and drainage matter more than the surface stone.
Around Morgantown, in the south-central hills and karst country, soils are thinner and sit over sandstone, shale and limestone. Rain runs off steep slopes fast, and water draining into sinkholes can wash out fill or open a collapse.
Base and driveway work runs best from late spring through fall in both zones. Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter months, and wet clay turns slick on steep unpaved drives.

Choosing the Right Material
Morgan County splits between glacial till clay in the north and center and hilly karst ground in the south. That split decides your base and drainage plan.
Monroe County is also South-central hills and karst country: thin, silty soils over sandstone and shale on steep ridges, with red-brown clay over limestone on the karst plain. Same zone, so the ground is similar. There, projects lean toward slope protection and drainage rather than heavy compaction.
Owen County shares that same karst zone, so expect the same thin soils and sinkhole concerns. Brown County does too, with the same steep ridges and clay plain.
Around Morgantown, in the hill and karst country, steep slopes shed runoff fast, so drainage stone matters as much as base. In Morgan County's flatter till plain, a compacted #53 base carries most drive and patio work.
