Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Philipp, MS

If you are building a driveway, setting a shed pad or running drainage, gravel and aggregate delivery in Philipp, MS starts with picking the right material. Mississippi Rock Supply sells bulk stone, sand and soil by the ton or yard and drops it at your site.

For a compacting base here, the local name to ask for is 610 limestone. Delta ground sits flat and holds water, so a drive needs a built-up base rather than a deeper one.

Materials for Philipp Projects

Base and driveway surfacing is where most Philipp work starts, and 610 limestone leads it. Size No.

Under that, clay gravel is the long-standing Mississippi drive and farm-road material. It is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines in it to bind and pack over soft ground.

Where water has to move instead of sit, go to clean washed stone. #57 Limestone handles French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing, and #67 Stone does the same drainage and concrete work one size down.

For finer drainage and tight bedding, #8 Crushed Stone works in pipe bedding and paver joints, and #89 Crushed Stone is the small washed stone for the tightest joints. Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and top a compacted base.

Surfacing options run from Driveway Gravel over an existing drive to Natural Pea Gravel and river rock for beds and borders.

Ground and Conditions in Philipp

The Delta ground across this part of Mississippi is deep alluvial silt, silt loam and heavy clay. Sand and gravel sit tens of feet below the surface, not at it, so what you build on is fine soil, not stone.

Flat ground with almost no fall is the real problem. Tight clay subsoil takes water slowly, so rain and backwater stand rather than run off.

That is why a drive here wants a built-up, crowned base instead of a deeper one. Water needs somewhere to go before it soaks in.

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

Rip rap on banks and culvert outlets slows that cutting.

Work runs nearly year round in this part of the state. Saturated ground in late winter and early spring and heavy rain set the schedule, not frozen ground.
