Bulk Material Delivery in Orlando, WV

If the bank behind your place is washing out, the right answer is usually gravel and aggregate delivery in Orlando, WV, and the right material is coarse. West Virginia Rock Supply delivers bulk loads of crusher run and clean stone across Lewis County.

This is hill country on shale and siltstone, so water arrives fast and leaves fast. Pick the stone for the job it does, and a load tips where it is needed.

Materials for Orlando Projects

Slope, swale and bank work starts with coarse, angular stone that stays where it is placed. Fine material washes off a grade, so begin with the big sizes and work down.

Riprap is bank and slope armour. It goes on creek and hollow banks, culvert outlets and channel work after a washout, sold by stone size and weight class.

#4 Crushed Stone is 1-1/2 inch clean stone. Use it at construction entrances, trench bottoms and the first lift over very soft ground.

#57 Limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone. It suits French drains, pipe bedding, concrete work and drainage runs, and West Virginia quarries list it as #57 limestone.

For the finer end, #8 Limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints, fine drainage and pipe bedding. Stone Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints between them.

Where you are building a drive or a pad rather than protecting a bank, crusher run is the everyday base and drive material. Crushed stone with the fines left in locks up tight and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

West Virginia yards sell it by top size, and Class 1 base is the heavier of the two crusher run classes for drives, parking pads and shop floors.

A dump truck tips the load in one pile on your site. Have the pile spot clear and reachable, and keep the route in mind if your lane is narrow or soft.

Ground and Conditions in Orlando

Work here runs from spring into late fall. What usually stops a base job is a long wet spell, not frost, because this ground holds water and cannot be compacted while it is saturated.

Across the North central plateau and western hills, slopes are steep and cut into shale, siltstone and sandstone, with clay-rich soil that sheds water slowly. That is why coarse stone on banks and in swales matters more than a tidy surface.

This part of the state sees repeated freeze-thaw, and spring thaw is when a gravel drive shows what its base is worth. Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, so confirm the figure with the local official who sets it for your project.

Acid mine drainage from old workings is a documented problem in the region and it is hard on metal pipe and culverts. Clean stone lets water move instead of sitting against that pipe.

Questions About Stone and Delivery

What stone should I use for drainage in Orlando?

For drainage, use clean washed stone, because fines block the flow. #57 limestone is the usual 1 inch choice for French drains and pipe bedding, with #67 stone where #57 is a shade too big.

#4 crushed stone handles heavy drainage and trench bottoms, and #8 limestone works for tight joints and fine drainage. Keep fines-bearing material out of a drain.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Have the pile location clear and reachable, with room for a dump truck to back in and tip. The load comes off in one pile, so pick a spot that works for where the material is headed.

If your lane is steep or soft, walk it first and think about whether a loaded truck can get in and back out again.
