Landscaping Material Delivered in New London, WI

Start with the math before you pick a material. For gravel and aggregate delivery in New London, WI, measure the bed or drive, decide the depth, and figure the tons you need. Wisconsin Rock Supply sells bulk gravel, stone, sand and soil by the ton, including traffic bond, the crushed dense-graded base this market calls for.

New London sits in Waupaca County on clay-rich, limy glacial till and old lake-bed clays that drain slowly. That ground decides how deep your base has to go.

Materials for New London Projects

Beds, borders and dry creek beds are common landscape jobs around New London. Decorative stone is the easy part to get wrong, because the size you pick sets the look and the way water moves through it.

For beds and borders, River Rock lays down smooth and stays put. Use Large River Rock for a dry creek bed that has to carry runoff off slow-draining clay ground. Line the trench with a drainage layer first so water has somewhere to go.

Walkways and dog runs want something round underfoot. Natural Pea Gravel works for both, and it drains well. For a path that packs firmer, Walkway Gravel gives you a finer, walkable surface.

Beds and tree rings hold moisture better under Shredded Mulch, which matters through a Wisconsin summer.

Under all of it, the base still has to be right. Here is how the common picks sort out.

Ground and Conditions in New London

Build for the soil you have, not the soil you want. The clay and silt around New London soak slowly, so water ponds on flat ground and runs off to ditches. A thin gravel base over that clay heaves and ruts, and it cannot drain down at all while the subsoil is still frozen.

Frost depth runs at least 48 inches for footings under the Uniform Dwelling Code, and 48 to 72 inches under pavement by late winter. That is the number behind base depth here. Excavate deep enough, compact in lifts, and the drive holds through the thaw.

Where ground is soft or heavy clay, start with breaker run and cap it with traffic bond. For drainage, clear stone has the fines screened out, so water moves instead of sitting. Screenings are the Wisconsin name for stone dust, and they pack hard for paver bedding.

Timing matters too. Clay sites stay soft after the thaw and after heavy rain, so base and paver work goes best once the ground has drained, from late spring into fall. Class II state highways and posted county, town and village roads carry spring weight limits while frost comes out.

Questions New London Buyers Ask

How much material will my project need?

Multiply length by width by depth in feet, then divide by 27 for cubic yards. Gravel is heavy for its volume, so enter your drive measurements in the calculator to see both the yards and the tons you need. Add about 10 percent for compaction and spillage.

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in New London?

Yes. Order by the ton or the yard online and we deliver bulk to your site in New London and across Waupaca County. Traffic bond, breaker run, decorative rock, sand and soil all move by weight, so the ton is the number to work from when you place the order.
