Buy Fill Dirt in Oakland, MS

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Oakland, MS online, by the ton or by the yard. Mississippi Rock Supply delivers 610 limestone, sand and soil across Yalobusha County.

610 limestone is the local name for the compacting base. Fill dirt, topsoil and garden soil cover the grading and bed work.

The North Central Hills ground here is loamy on the ridges and clayey in the hollows, so what goes under a pad matters.

Materials for Oakland Projects

Grading and bed prep start with soil and fill, then move to base and stone. Pick the material that matches the job.

Soil, Fill and Mulch

Fill Dirt raises grade, fills low spots and builds up a pad before a base course goes down. On ground that holds water, it sets the level the rest of the work sits on.

Top Soil prepares lawns and beds and builds a workable layer over tight clay or washed-out ground. Garden Soil fills raised beds and planting areas where the native soil will not drain.

Shredded Mulch holds moisture in beds and tree rings and keeps soil in place on slopes through heavy summer rain.

Base and Driveway Material

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

Clay Gravel is pit gravel with enough clay and fines in it to bind and pack. It is a long-standing drive and farm-road material where a graded, compacting surface is wanted over soft ground.

Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base. Walkway Gravel gives garden paths a finer, walkable surface.

Washed Stone and Sand

#57 Limestone is clean, free-draining stone for French drains, foundation drains and concrete aggregate. #67 Stone covers drainage and concrete work one size down from 57.

#8 Crushed Stone handles fine drainage, pipe bedding and paver joints. Masonry Sand is the mason sand and mortar sand for brick and block work and paver joints.

Decorative Stone

Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas and decorative beds. It is rounded chert washed out of the pit gravels, not crushed stone.

River Rock finishes decorative beds, borders and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Oakland

Rain is the driver here. Runoff concentrates fast in the draws on this rolling ground with short, steep grades.

Clay subsoil under a loamy surface keeps water sitting in low spots.

That standing water is why a base fails or holds. Put a clean, free-draining stone where water needs to move, and a compacting base where a surface needs to carry loads.

Drainage

Drain Rock goes into French drains, foundation drains, drywells and downspout runs on ground that holds water. #57 limestone does the same work as an open, clean stone.

For fine drainage and pipe bedding, step down to #8 crushed stone or 3/4 inch crushed stone. Keep fines out of a drain.

Erosion and Slopes

Cleared slopes in this part of the state cut rills and gullies, and drive crossings wash out after summer downpours. RipRap armours banks, culvert outlets, pond edges and slope protection.

Large river rock works in dry creek beds, drainage swales and heavier bank work. Both hold a slope where loose soil will not.

Working Season

Work runs nearly year-round here. Wet late winter and early spring ground is the main hold-up, because a wet clay subsoil will not take a load.

Mild winters bring brief shallow freezes. Frost is not the reason a base fails in this part of Mississippi.

Standing water and shrink-swell clay are.

What stone should I use for drainage in Oakland?

Start with what the water has to do. Drain Rock and #57 Limestone are clean, open stone for French drains, foundation drains and drywells.

Step down to #8 Crushed Stone for pipe bedding and tight work. Keep fines out of a drain, because a fines-bearing material will not pass water.
