Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Maybee, MI

Michigan Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Maybee, MI for two kinds of buyers: contractors building drives and pads all season, and homeowners fixing one rutted lane. Most jobs here start with 21AA limestone, the crushed limestone with fines that Michigan crews specify for a driveway base.

Ground on this side of Monroe County is flat and holds water, so what goes under the surface matters as much as what you see. We sell both the base and the stone that sheds water away from it.

Materials for Maybee Projects

Start with the base and work outward. 21AA limestone is the standard Michigan driveway base. Compacted in lifts, it locks up hard and carries a truck without rutting.

22A road gravel is a different class, not a swap for 21AA. It is a hard-packing mix of stone, sand and fines for unpaved drives and private roads where you want a firm surface, and it is not a drainage material.

On top of a compacted base, driveway gravel handles the wearing course, and walkway gravel gives paths a finer, walkable surface that will not chew up boots.

Where water has to move, washed stone does the work.

• 3/4" Crushed Stone for drainage beds and construction entrances.
• #57 Stone for French drains and concrete aggregate.
• Drain Rock for foundation drains and downspout runs in slow-draining clay.

Round it out with sand and soil: Mason Sand for paver joints, Washed Sand for bedding under slabs, and screened Top Soil for lawns and beds over clay or sandy ground.

Ground and Conditions in Maybee

Maybee sits on the flat former glacial lake bed that covers much of Southeast Michigan, ground made of clay, silty clay and clay loam with sandy beach ridges running through it in places. Most of it drains poorly, and water stands in the low spots after a storm.

Spring snowmelt and heavy rain are the real test. On flat clay, water has nowhere to go fast, so land here leans on ditches and tile drains, and streams and ditches rise quickly and scour their banks.

That shapes base depth. Frost goes down 42 inches under the Michigan Residential Code, and as it comes out in spring the soaked soil traps water. Thin bases soften and rut, so build deeper and compact in lifts.

Add a drainage layer where water collects, and plan your heavy hauling around spring frost laws, which limit truck weights on many roads during the thaw.

Delivery to Maybee and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck, and the drop is the part worth planning. Pick your quantity by the ton or the cubic yard based on the area and depth you are covering, then order online.

Before the truck rolls, clear the lane and mark anything low: wires, branches, a mailbox, a septic lid. A loaded truck needs room to back in and tailgate the pile where you want it, not in the middle of the lawn.

We deliver across Maybee and Monroe County, including Monroe, Lambertville, Temperance, Dundee and La Salle.
