Bulk Gravel Delivery to New Harmony, IN

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in New Harmony, IN online by the ton or the yard. Indiana Rock Supply drops bulk loads at your driveway, garden gate or jobsite. #53 stone is the base most local projects start with, and it packs hard once watered and compacted. Around here that matters, because old lake-bed flats and low valley ground hold water in wet seasons.

Pick your material, enter your quantity, and we deliver. Simple as that.

Materials for New Harmony Projects

Paths and walkways need fines, not big open stone. Fines lock together and give you a surface you can push a wheelbarrow across without sinking. Start with a walkable top course and build down from there.

Natural Pea Gravel is the classic path topping. It is rounded, mostly uncrushed, and comfortable underfoot, so it suits garden paths and play areas. Spread it over a compacted base and it stays put. See 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel.

For a tighter, firmer path, use Walkway Gravel. It packs into a smooth surface that holds a line and does not roll underfoot the way loose round stone can.

Underneath, screen your bedding. Stone Screenings level flagstone, pavers and stepping stones and lock the joints. Limestone screenings are the standard bedding here.

Then build the base. It carries the weight and keeps your path from pumping mud after a wet spring. #73 Stone is the finer companion, a smaller top size for topping and resurfacing where you want a smooth-pack finish.

Ground and Conditions in New Harmony

Thin base fails first. You see it as ruts, soft spots and stone disappearing into the mud within a season. That is the ground telling you the base was not deep enough.

Posey County sits in the Southwest Wabash and Ohio lowlands. Broad flat river valleys and old lake-bed flats of silt and clay drain slowly. Upland loess soils here are the thickest wind-blown silt in Indiana, and many hold water near the surface through wet seasons.

More stone on the surface will not hold over soft silt; the base needs depth and drainage. Dig out soft silt, put down a compacted #53 stone base at a real depth, and give water somewhere to go.

For wet spots, a Drain Rock layer or a French drain moves water away before it reaches your path. Armor ditch and bank edges with RipRap, because bare loess washes fast once the cover is stripped.

Timing counts too. Winter and spring are the high-water months on the river bottoms. Low sites build best from late spring through fall after water drops and the silt dries. Winters here are milder than northern Indiana but still bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves gravel drives and softens wet, silty subgrades. Set footing depth with the county or city building department.

Delivery to New Harmony and the Surrounding Area

Choose tons or yards first. Stone and gravel sell by the ton. Sand, soil and mulch often sell by the cubic yard. Both work online; pick the one you know and let the calculator handle the rest.

Estimate quantity by volume. Length times width times depth gives you cubic feet, then convert. Deeper base eats more material, so measure the depth you actually need, not the depth you hope for.

Order online. We deliver bulk loads across New Harmony and Posey County, including Mount Vernon, Poseyville, Cynthiana, Griffin and Wadesville. Tell us where to drop and keep the route clear.

Common Questions

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Have the drop spot marked and clear. Move vehicles, low branches and anything you do not want buried. A bulk load is heavy, so firm ground helps. If the truck cannot reach the exact spot, pick a clean staging area close by and plan to move material from there.

What is the best base under pavers in New Harmony?

Compacted #53 stone, then a leveling course of stone screenings. The #53 base carries the load and sheds water; the screenings let you set each paver flat and true. On the silty flats around here, dig out soft ground first and build the base deep enough to bridge it.
