How do I get my river rock? 

We can:

- Load the product directly into your truck or trailer using a "skid-steerer" (or Bobcat front loader). Keep in mind the truck bed needs to have an open top to use the loader. You are more than welcome to shovel it in a vechicle that has a closed top. 

- Deliver your product in a dump truck that can dump in almost any paved area. We have trucks of various sizes that can fit almost any need.

- Delivery your product in a SuperSack which is a 3'x3'x3' bag on a pallet. The SuperSack is brought to you and placed in a paved area using a forklift on the back of the truck.

- Fill any container you bring! It's much cheaper than buying prepackaged bags.

- Install the product for you! Simply fill out this online form below (labeled "REQUEST A CONSULTATION"), and we will be out there to provide an immediate on-site estimate for the work you would like completed! Please keep in mind that the estimates are for installation projects, unfortunately, it is cost-prohibitive to offer home visits to help calculate how much stone you need if you are installing the stone yourself.

How much do I need? 

This is the most common question we have and it is easy to figure out with our gravel calculator! Bulk gravel is sold by ton which. If you provide input a little information to our calculator, we will provide you with how much gravel you will need for your project. Simply get the width and length of the areas that you will be applying the gravel and input the information in our gravel project calculator, then select your desired depth of gravel. The calculator will figure out how many tons you will need! Make sure you consider the existing plants in the area, you will not be applying gravel on top of them so minus some of the area out for that! 

Gravel Installation Instructions:

- Mohican River Rock is often used as a ground covering. While Medium River Rock does not compact, it can get pushed into the soil over time if no barrier is placed between the soil and the gravel. It is recommended that a barrier such as Filter Fabric be placed on the ground before laying the gravel. This will not only help to keep the Mohican River Rock from being pushed into the soil, it will make it much easier to remove the Mohican River Rock should you want to do so.
- It is recommended that Mohican River Rock is spread at a depth between 3" and 4". If no barrier is used between the soil and the Mohican River Rock, some of the gravel will be pushed into the ground and this can be accounted for by laying more gravel when installed. Otherwise, more gravel can be added later to refresh the area. Due to the size of Medium River Rock, it is not possible to spread it at a depth lower than 3".

-Mohican River Rock is not recommended for construction purposes. While it has been used in the past for construction, it is not recommended due to its round shape which allows it to move and shift when force is applied. This also makes it not ideal for vehicles to drive on.
-Mohican River Rock is not typically recommended for driveways and walkways. Its relatively large size can be somewhat difficult to walk on and the round stones tend to roll under a tire which results in a loss of traction.
