Fill and Base Material Delivered in Anguilla, MS

Mississippi Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Anguilla, MS to driveways, pads and building sites. The base material here is 610 limestone, the crushed stone base that Mississippi yards sell for compacting under drives and slabs.

Anguilla sits in Sharkey County, on Delta ground where the soil is deep silt and heavy clay. Sand and gravel sit far below the surface, so a yard that needs stone has it hauled in.

Delivery to Anguilla and the Surrounding Area

You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout. Each product page carries a calculator if you want to size the load before you buy.

A dump truck then tips the material on your site in one pile.

Delivery covers Anguilla and the rest of Sharkey County, including Rolling Fork, Cary and Holly Bluff. Bulk loads go to farm yards, building pads and driveways across the flat ground this part of the Delta is known for.

Materials for Anguilla Projects

Raising grade and building pads come first on Delta ground. Fill dirt lifts a low spot or builds a pad up before any base course goes down.

On ground that holds water, that lift is what keeps the finished surface above the wet layer instead of sitting in it.

Over the fill, 610 limestone is the compacting base for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and patio sub-base. Size No.

Clay gravel, also called pit gravel, is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines to bind and pack. It has been the ordinary drive and farm-road surface in Mississippi for a long time, and it suits soft ground where a graded, compacting surface is wanted.

For drainage, #57 limestone and #67 stone are clean, free-draining sizes used in French drains, foundation drains and concrete work. #8 crushed stone is finer, and it beds pipe and fills paver joints.

Rip rap armours banks, culvert outlets and pond edges where water cuts at the soil.

Sand, soil and mulch round out a project. Masonry sand beds brick, block and pavers, while topsoil and garden soil rebuild a workable layer over tight clay.

Shredded mulch holds beds and tree rings through heavy summer rain.

Ground and Conditions in Anguilla

Delta ground is deep alluvial silt, silt loam and heavy clay, laid down by rivers over a long span. Backswamp ground runs gray to black and swells when it is wet, then cracks when it dries.

That movement, not frost, is what breaks an under-built base around here.

The land is flat with almost no fall, and the clay subsoil takes water slowly. Water stands instead of running off, so a drive needs a built-up, crowned base rather than a deeper one dug into the wet layer.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Sheet flow crosses flat fields, banks cave along rivers and bayous, and floodwater cuts at drive edges and culvert outlets.

Rip rap and clean drainage stone at those points slow the cutting down.

Work runs nearly year round in this part of Mississippi, and short freezes do little damage. The real limits are saturated ground in late winter and early spring, and heavy rain.

Mississippi leaves the frost line depth blank in the residential code table for each jurisdiction to fill in, and sets a minimum exterior footing depth of 12 inches.
