Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Lothian, MD

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Lothian, MD online by the ton or the yard. Maryland Rock Supply drops bulk material at your site. Start with CR-6 for a driveway or pad base, then build the rest of the order around it.

This part of Anne Arundel County sits on sand, silt and clay, not bedrock. That shapes what compacts and what drains. Pick your material, set the quantity, and we deliver.

Materials for Lothian Projects

Grading and bed prep come first. Get the subgrade right and everything above it lasts. Soil, fill and base material carry most jobs here.

Soil and Fill

Use Top Soil for lawn and bed prep and for rebuilding grade after construction. Call it screened topsoil at the yard. It spreads and seeds clean.

Use Garden Soil in raised beds and planting areas. Use Fill Dirt to raise grade, backfill and lift low spots before base or topsoil goes down.

Base Stone

CR-6 is the standard base for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and paver sub-base. It is a compacting blend of crushed stone down to dust. Crusher Run is a separate product and works where you want that same binding blend.

Top a compacted base with Driveway Gravel. Finish paths with Walkway Gravel.

Washed Stone, Sand and Decorative

Use #57 Stone for drainage, French drains and driveway topping. For bedding under pavers, Maryland yards call it stone dust, which comes as Screenings.

Set pavers and slabs on Washed Sand. Mix mortar with Mason Sand. For beds and dry creek beds, River Rock and 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel cover both jobs.

Ground and Conditions in Lothian

Start with water. Summer thunderstorms, nor'easters and tropical storm rain soak the ground fast. Low, flat land near the Bay and tidal rivers sheds it slowly.

Soils here are unconsolidated sand, silt, clay and gravel. Higher ground is well drained Top Soil. Low spots hold slow-draining clay that stays too wet to compact after a storm.

Plan for that. Excavate soft clay out, bring in fill, then compact CR-6 in lifts over a firm subgrade. A thin base over wet clay heaves and ruts through repeated freeze-thaw. Anne Arundel County sets frost depth at 30 inches.

Where you route water matters as much as the stone. Run #57 Stone or Drain Rock in French drains, drywells and downspout runs. Top a compacted base with #57 for a clean, draining drive surface.

Near tidal water, Critical Area rules limit lot coverage within 1,000 feet, and gravel and stone surfaces count toward it. Shorelines and bluffs also take wave and storm tide erosion. RipRap armors banks, culvert outlets and slopes.

Work runs spring through late fall, with only short winter stoppages for frozen ground. Build the base before the wet season, not during it.

Delivery to Lothian and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck and is tailgated or dumped where you point it. Have the drop spot cleared and marked before the truck rolls in.

Check overhead lines, low branches and soft ground first. A loaded truck needs firm footing and room to turn. For tight drives, split the load into smaller drops or stage it at the street.

Order online by the ton or the yard. Tonnage suits stone and sand; yards suit topsoil, fill and mulch. We deliver across Anne Arundel County, including Glen Burnie, Severn, Odenton, Annapolis and Severna Park.

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Lothian?

Yes. Order by the ton or the yard, whichever fits the material. Stone, sand and gravel usually go by the ton. Topsoil, fill dirt and mulch are often easier by the yard. Enter your quantity online and we schedule the delivery to your Lothian address.

What stone should I use for drainage in Lothian?

Use #57 Stone for French drains, drywells and driveway topping. Use Drain Rock for foundation drains and downspout runs. Where runoff crosses sandy slopes near the shore, line the channel with RipRap or large river rock to hold the bank against storm flow.
