Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 36702?

What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in Selma?

Crusher run (CR-6) is the most common choice. It contains fines that bind the stone together when compacted. It forms a durable surface for cars and trucks.

What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?

Crusher run contains stone and fine dust that packs tight. Crushed Stone has no fines so water drains through. Use crusher run for driveways and clean stone for drainage projects.

What material works best for drainage around a foundation?

#57 limestone gravel is a good choice. It is clean and coarse, allowing water to move away. Place it around footing drains or in a French drain trench.

Can material be delivered to long driveways or tight lots in ZIP 36702?

Yes, we can deliver to most lots. For long driveways, we need space for the truck to turn around or back in. For tight urban lots, we can drop material at the curb or driveway head.

Material Selection by Project Type

Driveways: Use crusher run for a stable base that compacts under weight. A 4 to 6 inch lift on well-prepared ground handles light to moderate traffic.
Drainage: Choose Crushed Stone like #57 gravel. Without fines, water moves through easily. Use around foundations, French drains, or low spots.
Patios and walkways: Compact #78 gravel as a base layer. Add a thin bed of sand or stone dust on top to level pavers.
Landscape beds and soil work: River rock or Natural Pea Gravel gives a clean finish. For planting, top soil provides good structure. Mulch helps retain moisture.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

ZIP 36702 in Selma mixes older built-up lots with newer subdivisions and rural acreage. Soil in much of the area is clay based and can drain slowly.

On sloped lots, water runs off fast so clean stone works well for drainage. In flatter areas, compacted crusher run holds up better for driveways because clay stays firm when dry.

Rural properties often have long driveways. A strong base with crusher run prevents rutting. On tight urban lots, access is easier but soft ground after rain may require a drop spot near the street.

Delivery and Access in ZIP 36702 of Selma

American Rock Supply is a delivery-only service. We serve much of ZIP 36702 with dump trucks sized for single load and contractor orders.

Long rural driveways require a turnaround or clear space. Soft ground after heavy rain can limit where the truck can drop material. Overhead branches or wires need to be checked.

We recommend clearing the drop area and having a plan for moving the material. For smaller jobs, a front bucket or wheelbarrow works well. Let us know your access situation when you order.
