Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Lake City, MI

Michigan Rock Supply stocks gravel and aggregate delivery in Lake City, MI, from 21AA limestone to screened topsoil. This part of Missaukee County sits on sandy glacial outwash, so a driveway built here needs a base that packs hard and sheds spring meltwater. We stock the base, washed stone, sand, soil and decorative materials local crews order most.

Materials for Lake City Projects

Start with the base. 21AA Limestone is the standard Michigan driveway base. It locks up tight under a plate compactor and carries a loaded trailer without rutting.

Where you want a hard-packing mix of stone, sand and fines, 22A Road Gravel is the other option. Use it on unpaved drives and private roads, not for drainage work.

For the surface layer, Driveway Gravel tops a compacted 21AA base and refreshes an existing drive. Around the house, Walkway Gravel gives paths a finer, walkable finish.

Water has to go somewhere. #57 Stone handles French drains and concrete aggregate, while Drain Rock suits foundation drains and downspout runs in slow-draining ground.

Sand and soil round out the order. Mason Sand sets brick and block and fills paver joints, Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs, and screened Top Soil covers new lawns over sandy ground.

Ground and Conditions in Lake City

Plan around water first. Sandy uplands here drain fast, so most trouble comes from spring snowmelt, heavy lake-effect snow and the wet lowlands and swamps that sit between them. Water that pools at the edge of a drive is usually a base problem, not a surface problem.

That is why a driveway base goes in deeper than the top layer suggests. Frost depth runs 42 inches under the Michigan Residential Code, and the building official can require deeper footings where local conditions call for it. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, so base and paver work runs from the spring thaw into fall, a shorter season than southern Michigan gets.

Frost laws on state highways and county roads can stay in place here after they lift farther south. Bare sand on slopes, in ditches and along stream banks washes out in heavy rain and snowmelt, so armoring those spots early saves regrading later.

Order online and pick your material, then choose a quantity by the ton or the cubic yard. Bulk loads arrive by dump truck, so have the drop spot clear and reachable, with room for the truck to pull out after the bed lifts.

Tell us where the pile should land. A driveway base order is easier to spread when the load is dumped in lifts along the run instead of in one heap at the end. We deliver across Lake City and Missaukee County, including McBain, Falmouth and Merritt.
