Bulk Gravel Delivery to San Ysidro, NM

Gravel and aggregate delivery in San Ysidro, NM runs close to year round. Summer heat and monsoon downpours are what interrupt a compaction pass, not cold.

New Mexico Rock Supply sells base course, gravel, stone, sand and soil in bulk, ordered online by the ton or the yard.

San Ysidro sits in Sandoval County, on sandy and gravelly river alluvium over caliche. That ground shapes what you put on top of it.

Plan the load around the weather window and the material follows.

Ground and Conditions in San Ysidro

A thin base course fails in a predictable way here. Water gets through the sandy surface, hits the caliche below, and stops.

The lift stays wet underneath and moves under a tire.

Across the Middle Rio Grande valley and rift, monsoon cloudbursts on the mesas run straight down the arroyos into the valley. Bare sandy ground also sheds sheet flow fast.

Both put water where a drive or pad has to handle it.

Base course is the fix for the surface. It is New Mexico's own term for road base.

It is also called Type I base course, Type II base course, or 3/4 minus.

The material goes down as a compacted base for driveways, parking pads, and slab and shed bases. On this ground it needs to sit over fill that has been brought up to grade first, not straight onto soft caliche.

Drainage is the other half. Where water has nowhere to go, drain rock in a French drain or a dry well gives it a path.

Canale and downspout splash runs need the same treatment.

Erosion work follows the same logic. Arroyo flash flooding off the mesas scours bare ground, and bank scour works along the Rio Grande and the irrigation ditches.

Rip rap armors an arroyo bank or a culvert outlet against that flow.

Frost is mild at this elevation. Freezing nights and daytime thaws cycle often but shallow, so deep frost is uncommon on the valley floor.

Footing depth is set by the building official, not by the material you order.

Materials for San Ysidro Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where a project here is won or lost. The bedding layer has to be uniform and it has to drain or lock, depending on what sits on top.

Several materials cover that job.

Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints between them. They are also called screenings.

New Mexico yards more often reach for crusher fines in this role, so screenings stay a bedding and joint product.

Crusher Fines are screened crushed rock fines that pack to a firm walkable crust. They suit paths, patios, courtyards, dog runs and xeriscape walkways, and they are sold by color.

Washed Sand, also called concrete sand, is the bedding and leveling layer under slabs and flatwork. It gives a uniform surface for the slab to sit on.

Mason Sand is plaster sand or masonry sand. It goes into block, brick and adobe work, stucco and plaster scratch and brown coats, and paver joints.

Under all of it, Base Course carries the load. It is the compacted structural layer for drives, pads and slab bases, and it sets the grade everything above it follows.

Around the edges of that work, 3/4 Crushed Rock handles drainage beds, drive surfacing, construction entrances and drip strips against a foundation. Drain Rock fills French drains, dry wells and foundation drains.

For planting, Top Soil covers lawns, tree wells and bed prep over thin alkaline ground and caliche. Garden Soil fills raised beds, which is how most gardeners here get around a caliche layer instead of digging through it.
