#2 Stone and Bulk Aggregates for Scottsburg, NY

If you are pricing gravel and aggregate delivery in Scottsburg, NY, size the load with the calculator before you pick a material. New York Rock Supply sells item 4, washed stone, sand and soil in bulk. Ground here is flat to gently rolling silt, clay and sand left by old glacial lakes, so water sits longer than most crews expect.

That slow drainage is why washed stone does so much of the work on jobs around Scottsburg.

Water is the real problem on most sites in Livingston County. Flat clay ground holds spring melt and heavy rain, so the money goes into washed stone that lets water move instead of ponding. Here is the lineup by size, coarsest to finest.

Start big. RipRap handles stream banks, culvert outlets and slope armoring where runoff and ice do damage. #4 Crushed Stone is the heavy drainage grade for construction entrances and trench bottoms.

Then the workhorses. #2 stone is what New York yards sell for septic beds, pipe bedding and backfill. Drain Rock is the one for French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs. #57 stone covers drainage and concrete aggregate, and some yards sell that size range as a #1 and #2 blend.

Finer washed stone finishes the job. #1 stone works for fine drainage, pipe bedding and topping over a compacted base. #89 Crushed Stone is small washed stone for joints and tight bedding.

For the surface, item 4 is the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone, used under driveways, parking pads and shed bases. Top it with Driveway Gravel once the base is compacted.

Ground and Conditions in Scottsburg

Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall. Frozen, snow covered ground stops compaction through the winter, and clay ground can stay soft well into spring. Time a delivery for when the ground will take the weight.

Lake-effect snow off Lake Erie and Lake Ontario builds a heavy snowpack in belts south and east of the lakes. Spring melt and heavy rain leave water standing on flat, slow-draining clay ground, so plan a drainage layer, not just a surface.

Cold, snowy winters bring frequent freezing and thawing, and the lake-bed silt and clay soils are prone to frost heave and turn soft when they thaw. Footings usually go about 4 feet down, and the local building department sets the exact depth.
