Fill Dirt Delivery for Southaven, MS

Mississippi Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Southaven, MS to builders, crews and homeowners. The base material here is 610 limestone, the graded crushed stone this part of Mississippi sells for compacting base.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, shed pads and patio sub-base. Southaven sits in DeSoto County, on ground that is silty and easy to dig until it gets wet.

Delivery to Southaven and the Surrounding Area

You order online and choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard. Each product page has a calculator if you need to size the load.

You pick a delivery date at checkout.

A dump truck then tips the load on your site in one pile. That is the whole delivery.

There is no counter to visit and nothing to arrange in person.

Delivery covers Southaven and the rest of DeSoto County, including Olive Branch, Horn Lake, Hernando, Walls and Lake Cormorant. Give a clear spot for the pile when you place the order.

Materials for Southaven Projects

Raising grade and building pads is the work this ground asks for. Where a lot sits low or a slab needs to come up, fill dirt does the lifting before any base course goes down.

Fill dirt builds up a pad or fills a low spot. Once the grade is where you want it, 610 limestone is the compacting base that goes on top of it.

Both are ordered by the ton or the yard.

For a driveway, clay gravel is the pit-run material with enough clay and fines in it to bind and pack over soft ground. Driveway gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base.

For a patio, the base matters more than the surface. Stone screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints.

A drain under or beside the patio needs clean stone that lets water move.

For drainage, #57 limestone is the free-draining stone used in French drains and foundation drains. Drain rock handles drywells and downspout runs on ground that holds water.

Ground and Conditions in Southaven

The soil across the Loess Bluffs and Brown Loam is wind-laid silt, often more than fifty feet thick on the bluff line. It is easy to dig and it will stand in a vertical cut.

Then it fails without warning once it is wet. That is the part that catches people out.

A pad cut into this material can look solid and then move after a wet spell.

Water is the driver. Steep, dissected slopes shed rain fast into ravines, and the silt goes with it.

Getting water off a drive and into a lined channel matters more than how deep the base goes.

Gullying is the signature problem of this belt. Bare ground cuts into deep gullies in a single wet season, and slopes slump where the silt sits on clay.

Rip rap armours banks, culvert outlets and pond edges.

Base and paver work runs nearly year round here. Wet spells in late winter and early spring are the main interruption.

Repeated wetting and drying, not frost, is what moves the ground.

Questions About Material in Southaven

What is the best base under pavers in Southaven?

Use 610 limestone as the compacting base, then bed the pavers in stone screenings. The 610 is a graded crushed stone course that packs tight under a load.

Screenings give you a fine, level bed and fill the joints between units. On this silty ground, get surface water away from the edge of the pavers so it does not sit against the base.

Do you supply contractors working in Southaven?

Yes. Mississippi Rock Supply delivers bulk aggregate to contractors across Southaven and DeSoto County, including Olive Branch, Horn Lake, Hernando, Walls and Lake Cormorant.

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

The same ordering process works for one load or for a run of jobs.
