Gravel & hauling

Biggest load to smallest

We keep a truck for every job size, so you are not paying tri-axle money for a few yards of stone.

The trucks

Three sizes. Tell us the job and the driveway, and we send the one that fits.

Size 1

Light duty

Small orders and tight spots. A few yards for a walkway, a patch, a parking spot.

Size 2

Single-axle dump

Mid-size orders. Driveway top-offs, garden beds, backfill.

Size 3

Tri-axle dump

Full loads straight from the quarry. New driveways, roads, pads and site work.

Common loads

Need something not listed? Call. If a local quarry or yard has it, we can haul it.

Pools & Stuff Pool Water Delivery · with GT Transport

Pool water by the tanker

A garden hose puts out a few hundred gallons an hour. A tanker drops thousands in one visit, and it doesn't run up your water bill or drain your well.

How a fill goes

  1. Call or send a quote

    Give us the pool size, your address and the day you want it.

  2. We back in and run the line

    The truck parks as close as it safely can and runs a fill line to the pool. Tell us about soft ground, gates or tight turns ahead of time.

  3. Pool's full

    Add chemicals the way your pool store recommends and start swimming.

Driveways · gravel roads · RV pads · excavation

Done right from the dirt up

We do more than drop a pile. Stumps come out, ground gets shaped, and stone gets spread and packed so it holds up to traffic and weather.

Driveways

New & re-stoned

New drives cut in, or a fresh layer over an old worn one. Gray stone or white.

RV & camper pads

Pads & parking

Stone base and border gravel for RV pads, carports and equipment parking.

Roads & land

Gravel roads

Access roads through wooded and hilly land, from bare clay to a finished stone road.

Excavation

Stumps & clearing

Excavator work for stump and root ball removal, downed trees and clearing a lot before grading.

Before the stone goes down

Questions we ask on every driveway estimate, so the job lasts.

CheckWhy it matters
Stumps & rootsRoots left in the path rot and leave soft spots. They come out first.
Slope & runoffWater running down a drive washes stone out. Grade and ditches come next.
Base layerCrusher run underneath packs tight and holds the top stone in place.
Depth4–6 in for new drives, about 2 in for a top-off.
Truck accessLow wires, soft yards, tight gates and turnarounds decide which truck we send.
Drainage spotsRip rap lining for ditches and banks keeps soil from washing away.
