Bulk Material Delivery in Tullos, LA

Gravel and aggregate delivery in Tullos, LA starts with the water. The sandy loam surface here takes rain fast, and the clay under it does not, so water runs sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

Louisiana Rock Supply delivers bulk stone, sand, soil and 610 limestone to Tullos and the rest of LaSalle Parish. Coarse stone is what holds a slope, a swale or a bank once that water starts moving.

Materials for Tullos Projects

Start with the big angular stone. Riprap is the armouring size, cut for bank and shoreline edges, canal and bayou banks, and slope protection where running water is the problem.

#4 Crushed Stone is the next step down, roughly 1 1/2 inch and clean. It suits heavy drainage, erosion work and ground that stays soft and needs a coarse open stone under it.

Railroad ballast is the other coarse option, angular and open, for track beds, heavy equipment pads and wet ground that swallows finer material.

For the swale itself, drainage stone has to pass water instead of holding it. #57 Limestone is the clean open graded size, about 3/4 inch with no fines, and it is the usual choice for drainage runs and concrete work.

#67 Stone is a little finer and clean, sized for drainage trenches and pipe bedding. Drain Rock is washed clean for French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs.

Where the ground has to carry something, 610 limestone is the base. Stone dust up to about two inches, with the fines left in so it binds and hardens as it is rolled.

It goes under drives, parking pads, shed and building pads, and flatwork.

Crushed Concrete is a recycled Portland cement concrete, crushed and screened dense graded with the fines kept. Louisiana uses it as a Class II base course material.

Fill comes before any of that on low ground. Select fill, or spillway dirt as it is also called, raises a pad up out of the water and compacts instead of settling.

Rounded stone is for looks, not for holding. Large River Rock builds dry creek beds, decorative edging and low banks, and it does not lock together, so it is not bank armour.

Delivery to Tullos and the Surrounding Area

Order online and the truck tips the load on your site. Quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard, and each product page has a calculator.

Pick your delivery date at checkout. Louisiana Rock Supply covers Tullos and the rest of LaSalle Parish, including Jena, Olla and Trout.

Have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. The load comes off the bed in one pile, so a firm, level, open place to tip it keeps the stone out of the way of the work.

Ground and Conditions in Tullos

Work here runs year round. Wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass, so time a base course delivery for ground that will take the weight.

On the uplands, gully cutting is the erosion that shows up first. Bare sandy slopes go quickly once the cover is gone, and ditches and streams scour in the draws.

Slope is what moves water here, not a water table, so the drainage layer is the part that has to work. Bury clean open stone along the run and let it carry water past the slope instead of down it.
