Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Mildred, MT

Montana Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Mildred, MT, with crushed base course, road mix, washed rock, sand and soil sold by the ton or the yard and tipped at your site. The ground here is bentonite-rich gumbo clay that swells when it wets and cracks when it dries.

Materials for Mildred Projects

Grading and bed prep start with what sits under the finish. Screened topsoil gives thin or stony ground a planting layer for lawns and beds.

Garden soil is blended for raised beds and planting areas where native clay or gravel will not do on its own. Fill dirt raises grade and backfills before a base course goes down.

For a drive, shop pad or parking area, crushed base course is the standard Montana base material, usually ordered by top size as 3/4 minus. Pit run is unprocessed pit gravel for deep fill and sub-base, not a finished driving surface.

Road mix carries enough fines and clay binder to pack hard as a drive or county-style lane surface.

Washed stone handles water. Washed rock, also called drain rock or 3/4 clean, has the fines washed out for French drains, curtain drains and downspout runs.

Crusher fines, which Montana yards call screenings, bed pavers and flagstone and surface packed pathways.

Sand and decorative stone round out a yard. Washed sand levels and beds under flatwork and pavers, mason sand works into brick and block joints, and Yellowstone river rock fills decorative beds and dry creek beds where bark will not hold in wind.

Ground and Conditions in Mildred

Gumbo is the driver across the Eastern plains, Missouri Breaks and badlands. Bentonite clay swells and turns greasy as soon as it wets up, so water sits on the surface instead of soaking away.

That same clay cracks open when it dries, and unsurfaced roads go soft after rain. Cloudbursts run straight off into the coulees, cutting gullies and rills in shale and clay ground and scouring banks.

Work follows dry ground. Spring breakup and heavy rain make gumbo roads impassable, so midsummer and early autumn are the dependable window for a delivery and for grading.

Winters here are cold and dry with deep frost and wide day-to-night swings. Ground that thaws on a chinook afternoon and refreezes overnight heaves gravel roads and opens up drives.

Frost depth figures published across Montana run from about 36 to 60 inches, and the local building department sets footing depth.
