Large River Rock and Bulk Aggregates for Wittenberg, WI

Wisconsin Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Wittenberg, WI. Most driveways here start with traffic bond, the crushed dense-graded base that packs hard and holds up under a truck. This area is glacial till and outwash, so one yard can be sandy and the next holds water in a low spot.

We stock the coarse stone that protects slopes and banks, and every load is sold by the ton or the yard and dropped where you need it.

Materials for Wittenberg Projects

Runoff is the real work in Shawano County. Spring snowmelt and heavy rain carry loose sand and silt off bare slopes, cleared lots and cropland into ditches and streams. Coarse stone is how you slow that water down and hold a bank in place.

RipRap armors lakeshore, stream banks, culvert outlets and slopes against waves and fast runoff. Breaker Run is the coarse crushed stone with fines for a heavy sub-base over soft or clay ground and for construction entrances, usually capped with traffic bond. Drain Rock feeds French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs.

For finer work, 3/4" Crushed Stone, also called clear stone, is crushed stone with the fines screened out for drainage beds and backfill around foundations and pipe. Large River Rock and River Rock build dry creek beds and heavier decorative work that also handles erosion.

Ground and Conditions in Wittenberg

Spring weight limits on Class II state highways and posted county, town and village roads tend to lift later than in southern Wisconsin. Ground work waits until frost is out and soils have drained.

Winter here is long and cold. Frost goes deeper and leaves the ground later than in the south, at least 48 inches for footings under the Uniform Dwelling Code. Wet, silty or loamy spots heave and soften under a thin base as the ground thaws, so a drive or pad built shallow will pump and rut every March.

Sandy outwash drains fast, but dense till slows water from soaking in. Snowmelt and heavy rain then collect in low spots, wetlands and flat fields, and cannot drain down while the subsoil is still frozen. That is where a drainage layer and coarse stone earn their place.

Delivery to Wittenberg and the Surrounding Area

We deliver across Wittenberg and the rest of Shawano County, including Shawano, Bonduel, Birnamwood, Tigerton and Gresham. Order online and pick the material, then set the quantity by the ton or the yard for the job.

Bulk delivery means the truck has to reach the drop point and get out again. Mark the spot, clear low branches and wires, and tell us about soft ground so we can plan the approach. Lead time depends on the material and the season, so order ahead of a pour or a bank repair.

Have the area ready before the truck arrives. That keeps the load where you want it and the driver on his way.

Questions Wittenberg Buyers Ask

What stone should I use for drainage in Wittenberg?

It depends on the job. Drain Rock and 3/4" Crushed Stone are the usual picks for French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs, because clear stone lets water move through it. For a slope, swale or stream bank, use RipRap or Large River Rock to slow runoff and hold the soil. Over soft ground, start with Breaker Run and cap it with traffic bond.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Mark the drop point clearly and make sure the truck can reach it and turn around. Clear low branches and overhead wires along the path. Tell us about soft, wet or sloped ground ahead of time so we can plan the approach. If you have a base ready for traffic bond or screenings, have it graded and compacted first so the load goes down on a firm surface.
