#67 Stone and Bulk Aggregates for Only, TN

Before you call in a load, work out the volume. Length times width times depth, then convert to tons. Get that number first and gravel and aggregate delivery in Only, TN goes a lot smoother. Tennessee Rock Supply sells crusher run, washed stone, sand and soil in bulk by the ton.

This is cherty clay ground over limestone and chert, so drainage matters here as much as base strength. That shapes what we recommend for a driveway, a pad or a French drain.

Materials for Only Projects

Washed stone is the heart of most drainage work around here. Sinkholes and sinking streams pull runoff underground where limestone sits close below, so water has to be given a path instead of a puddle. Start with the washed sizes and build the system from there.

Work coarsest to finest and each size has a job:

• #4 crushed stone for trench bottoms, heavy drainage and construction entrances.
• #57 stone for French drains, downspout runs and driveway topping.
• #67 stone for drainage and concrete work at a slightly smaller washed size.
• Drain rock for French drains, downspout runs and drainage behind retaining walls.
• Screenings for paver and flagstone bedding and leveling under patios.

A drywell is just a pit filled with washed stone, sized to the roof area feeding it. Keep fines out of it. Crusher run packs hard, but the fines in it will clog a drain bed over time, so use washed stone underground and save crusher run for the surface.

For the drive itself, crusher run is the standard Tennessee base stone, crushed stone with the fines left in so it compacts into a hard, stable surface. Top it with driveway gravel once the base is tight. Where a road, lot or heavier pad needs a graded base under it, the spec is mineral aggregate base, Grading D, and we sell that as graded base stone.

Ground and Conditions in Only

Winter and spring are the wettest seasons here, and saturated clay delays base work more often than frozen ground does. If you are grading a drive or cutting a pad, plan the base course for a dry stretch. Stone spread on mud pumps and never locks up.

Frost is moderate and stays shallow, so it is rarely the thing that ruins a base. Water is. On the flatter upland ground, a dense subsoil layer holds water after rain, so add a drainage layer or crown the surface so it sheds. On the steeper, dissected ground, storm runoff cuts into cleared hillsides and road ditches, and creek banks scour after heavy rain. That is where rip rap earns its place along a ditch or culvert outlet.
