Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Inverness, MS

Mississippi Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Inverness, MS, and it starts with a number. Each product page has a calculator, so you size the load before you order.

Around here the base material is 610 limestone, the crushed stone course this part of the Delta builds pads and drives on.

Delivery to Inverness and the Surrounding Area

You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck then tips the load on your site in one pile.

Inverness sits in Sunflower County, and delivery covers the town along with Indianola, Ruleville, Drew, Moorhead and Sunflower. If your work is on a farm road or a lot inside town, the truck still needs a clear, firm spot to tip.

Ground that holds water is the thing to think about before the truck arrives. Saturated clay in late winter and early spring is when a loaded truck can struggle, so plan the drop for ground that has had a chance to drain.

Materials for Inverness Projects

Raising grade and building pads is the work this ground calls for, and that shapes what you order. Flat Delta ground with tight clay under it means the base gets built up, not dug down.

For a building pad, shed pad or a low spot that needs lifting, start with Fill Dirt to bring the grade up. Then cap it with 610 Limestone, the compacting crushed stone base that takes the load.

For a driveway over soft ground, Clay Gravel is pit gravel with enough clay and fines to bind and pack. It is the long-standing Mississippi drive and farm-road material.

Where water has to move instead of sit, #57 Limestone is clean, free-draining stone for French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing. Drain Rock does the same job on ground that holds water.

For a patio or walkway, Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints. Walkway Gravel gives a finer, walkable path surface.

Ground and Conditions in Inverness

Across the Delta, the ground is deep alluvial silt, silt loam and heavy clay laid down by the rivers. Sand and gravel sit tens of feet below the surface, not at it.

Backswamp ground is gray to black clay that swells wet and cracks dry.

That clay is what breaks an under-built base. It takes water slowly, so a drive needs a built-up, crowned base rather than a deeper one.

Erosion here comes from sheet flow across flat fields and from floodwater cutting at drive edges and culvert outlets. Rip rap armour is the answer at a bank or an outlet.

Work runs nearly year round. The real limits are saturated ground in late winter and early spring and heavy rain, not frozen ground.

Questions from Inverness Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Inverness?

610 limestone is the compacting crushed stone base to build on, and it is what Mississippi yards sell by that name. Over Delta clay, bring the grade up first with fill dirt, then place the 610 limestone and compact it.

Bed the pavers themselves in stone screenings, which also fill the joints between them.
