Delivery to New Baltimore and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your quantity by the ton or by the yard. Size the load with the calculator before checkout so the truck arrives once with the right amount.

Choose your delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck drops the material where you want it on the site. Bulk delivery covers New Baltimore and the rest of Macomb County, including Warren, Sterling Heights, Macomb, St. Clair Shores, and Roseville.

Plan the drop spot with the truck in mind. A full load needs room to dump and a clear path in, and soft ground after rain can limit where a heavy truck goes.

Materials for New Baltimore Projects

Landscape work is the reason most buyers order here. Beds, borders, dry creek beds, and ground cover all take decorative stone, and the right size keeps the bed looking clean. Start with the look, then match the stone to the job.

• Pea Stone for walkways, play areas, dog runs, and light drainage. Michigan suppliers usually list it as pea stone, and it stays walkable underfoot.
• River Rock for decorative beds, borders, and dry creek beds.
• Large River Rock for heavier dry creek beds and erosion work where the stone has to hold against moving water.
• Drain Rock for French drains, drywells, foundation drains, and downspout runs in slow-draining clay.
• Shredded Mulch for beds and tree rings, holding moisture through the summer.

For a driveway, start with 21AA limestone as the base. For a patio, bed the pavers in stone screenings and lock the joints with mason sand. For a drain, run drain rock in the trench and daylight it to a ditch or drywell.

Ground and Conditions in New Baltimore

This is flat former glacial lake bed, clay, silty clay, and clay loam, crossed by sandy beach ridges and sand channels. Most of the ground drains poorly, so water sits in low spots and ditches and tile drains do the work.

That soil punishes an under-built base. Clay holds water, and a thin base over soaked clay ruts, shifts, and pumps. Build the base thick enough to bridge the soft ground and let the drainage layer carry water away.

Freeze-thaw hits every winter and spring. As frost comes out of the ground, water is trapped in the soaked soil, so roadbeds, gravel drives, and thin bases soften and rut. Frost depth runs 42 inches under the Michigan Residential Code.

Base, driveway, and paver work runs from the spring thaw into late fall, and frozen ground stops compaction in winter. Frost laws limit heavy trucks on many roads during the thaw, so time your delivery around the season.

Streams and ditches on the lake plain rise fast after rain and snowmelt and scour their banks. Riprap armors culvert outlets and slopes against that push, and it holds the shoreline where high water, storms, and ice work on the bank.
