Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Seymour, WI online by the ton or the yard. Wisconsin Rock Supply drops bulk loads at driveways, job sites and farm lanes across Outagamie County. Start with traffic bond for anything that carries weight. The clay here drains slowly, so plan the base before you plan the surface.

Materials for Seymour Projects

Fines are what keep a path or walkway in Seymour firm. Screenings pack hard and lock together, which is why they hold up under foot traffic where loose stone will not. Spread a thin lift, wet it, and compact it. That surface stays firm through a wet spring.

Stone dust, sold here as screenings, also beds pavers and patio slabs. Order Screenings in enough quantity to bed the pavers and sweep the joints.

For the walkway surface itself, Walkway Gravel gives you a finer, walkable finish that rakes clean. Use it on garden paths and around beds. For a path you want to look sharp all season, cap the compacted fines with a thin layer and skip the rake marks.

Natural Pea Gravel works for dog runs, play areas and dry borders. It moves underfoot, so keep it off slopes and out of paths you shovel. See Natural Pea Gravel for sizes.

Every path needs a base under it. 3/4" Traffic Bond is the crushed dense graded base Wisconsin suppliers sell under that name. Some yards label it road gravel. It packs hard and carries the load so your fines stay put.

Ground and Conditions in Seymour

Seymour sits in the Fox Valley clay zone, and that changes how you build a path. The soil is clay-rich glacial till and old lake-bed clay that drains slowly. Water ponds on flat ground and runs off to ditches instead of soaking in.

A thin base shows its failure fast here. A thin layer of stone over wet clay ruts, pumps and mixes with the subgrade. Clay like this needs a deeper base and a way for water to leave. Cut down to stable ground, put down a separation layer, then build up.

On soft or clay ground, start with Breaker Run, the coarse crushed stone with fines that Wisconsin crews use as a heavy sub-base. Cap it with traffic bond. That pair keeps the fines from disappearing into the clay.

Frost drives the rest. Frost depth runs at least 48 inches for footings, and 48 to 72 inches under pavement by late winter. Wet clay over still-frozen ground cannot drain, so it turns soft and thin gravel heaves and ruts.

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

Delivery to Seymour and the Surrounding Area

Pick your unit first. Order by the ton when you know the weight, or by the cubic yard when you are figuring volume. Measure the area, decide the depth, and convert. A garden path takes less material than a drive, but work out the volume before compaction so you are not short.

Screenings and traffic bond settle, so add a little. Bulk delivery drops the load where the truck can reach. Have the spot clear and the grade staked.

We deliver across Seymour and Outagamie County, including Appleton, Kaukauna, Greenville, Little Chute and Kimberly.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Clear the drop spot and mark the edges. Keep overhead wires and low branches in mind, since a dump truck needs room to raise the bed. Have the grade staked or painted so the driver can place the pile close to the work. If the ground is soft clay after rain, pick a firm spot or the truck will sink.

What is the best base under pavers in Seymour?

Start with 3/4" Traffic Bond over stable ground, compacted in lifts. The dense graded base locks up and spreads the load. Bed the pavers in screenings, which is the stone dust Wisconsin yards sell for bedding, and sweep it into the joints. On soft clay, put Breaker Run underneath first so the base stays put.
