Rip Rap and Bulk Aggregates for Pearlington, MS

If you are pricing gravel and aggregate delivery in Pearlington, MS, the first question is usually which stone the job needs. Mississippi Rock Supply sells bulk gravel, crushed stone, sand and topsoil by the ton or by the yard, delivered to your site.

Start with 610 limestone for anything that has to compact into a base. On flat, wet ground, the stone that protects a slope or a bank is a different order entirely.

Materials for Pearlington Projects

Ground this flat and this wet pushes two jobs to the front: moving water away from a structure, and holding a bank or swale in place once that water arrives. Both call for coarse, clean stone.

RipRap is the heavy end of that work. It armours banks, culvert outlets, pond edges and slopes where moving water would otherwise pull the ground out from under them.

#4 Crushed Stone suits trench bottoms, coarse drainage and construction entrances. It is large, clean and open, so water passes through instead of sitting in it.

One size down, #57 Limestone covers French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing where free-draining stone is wanted. #67 Stone does the same work one size finer.

For tight bedding and joints, #89 Crushed Stone is a small washed stone. Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints between them.

Where the ground needs to carry something, 610 Limestone is the compacting base for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and patio sub-base. Size No.

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

Delivery to Pearlington 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 has a calculator if you want to size the load before you commit.

A dump truck then tips the material on your site in one pile. Have the spot clear and reachable, because the load stays where it lands.

Mississippi Rock Supply delivers across Hancock County, including Bay St. Louis, Diamondhead, Waveland and Kiln alongside Pearlington.

Ground and Conditions in Pearlington

Work runs year round here. The seasonal risk is tropical systems and their rainfall in late summer and early autumn, not cold.

Across the Coastal Meadows and Gulf Coast Flatwoods, the terraces are nearly level and the water table sits close to the surface over much of the ground. Heavy rain has nowhere to go, so it stands.

That shapes what you order. A free-draining layer under the work matters more here than in most of the state, and raising the grade before a base course goes down keeps the base out of the water.

Freezing is not a design factor on this ground. 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.

Questions About Stone and Delivery in Pearlington

What stone should I use for drainage in Pearlington?

For a French drain, foundation drain or downspout run, use clean, open stone: #57 Limestone, #67 Stone or Drain Rock. Water moves through the voids instead of sitting in the trench.

For a swale or a bank taking moving water, step up to RipRap or #4 Crushed Stone, which resist scour far better than a fine stone will.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

A clear, reachable spot for the pile and a way for the truck to get to it. The driver tips the load in one place and does not spread it, so the drop point is where the material stays.

Order by the ton or the yard, pick your delivery date at checkout, and the truck does the rest.
