Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Martin, SD

South Dakota Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Martin, SD to contractors and homeowners working on the same short season. Some orders are a farm drive that needs base course.

Others are a new build that needs black dirt before anything else goes down.

You order online, pick a quantity by the ton or the yard, and a dump truck tips the load on site.

Materials for Martin Projects

Grading and bed prep carry a lot of the work around here, so soil and fill come first. Fill Dirt raises grade and builds a pad up before a base course layer goes on.

Top Soil gives a lawn or a bed a real growing layer over stony ground. Garden Soil fills raised beds, shelterbelt planting pockets and vegetable ground.

Base materials come next.

Gravel Cushion is the cushion course rolled out under concrete and asphalt, and the crushed top course on a gravel drive.

Washed stone handles water. Washed Rock goes into drain tile, drywells, sump and downspout runs, and window wells.

#57 Stone, also asked for as 1 inch washed rock, works in drainage beds and drain tile. Riprap armors culvert outlets, dam faces, stock dam spillways and stream banks.

Sand covers the flatwork side. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers and mixes into tight clay ground.

Mason Sand handles brick and block work, paver joint sand and play sand.

Decorative stone finishes the yard. River Rock mulches beds, borders and foundations where wind makes bark mulch a losing battle.

Large River Rock builds dry creek beds and heavier erosion work. Shredded Mulch holds moisture through a dry, windy summer in tree rings and shelterbelt plantings.

Ground and Conditions in Martin

Start with where the water goes. Across the White River Badlands, southern tablelands and sandhills, runoff comes off bare shale in a hurry after a storm and drops into the White River and its draws.

On the sand ridges near the Nebraska line, ground drains almost too fast to hold a base together.

That shapes what you put down. Sandy ground sheds water but shifts under a load, so a compacted base course layer does the work that the soil cannot.

On silt and shale, the base is what keeps a pad from pumping when the spring thaw lets go.

Frost is the other half of the problem. Exposed shale and silt weather fast under repeated freezing and thawing, and the working season runs from the spring thaw to freeze-up.

Short violent thunderstorms make draws and low crossings impassable for a day or two.

Where a foundation is involved, frost depth is set locally rather than by a statewide figure, and the local building official decides it. Ask what applies to your address before footing work starts.

Delivery to Martin and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck and gets tipped in one pile at the delivery address. Have the drop spot clear and reachable before the truck arrives.

Overhead lines, soft ground and parked equipment are the usual reasons a load cannot be placed where you wanted it.

What stone should I use for drainage in Martin?

It depends on the job. Washed Rock, a clean stone, suits drain tile, drywells and window wells.

For a larger, more open bed, 1 inch washed rock handles drainage and drain tile work. Riprap armors culvert outlets and stock dam spillways.

Around the southern sandhills and tablelands, a clean stone keeps water moving instead of trapping it.
