2A Modified and Bulk Aggregates for McVeytown, PA

Pennsylvania Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in McVeytown, PA, and 2A modified is the base stone most local jobs start with. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it compacts hard under a drive, a parking pad or a shed base. The valleys here take a lot of runoff, and that shapes which stone you want.

Materials for McVeytown Projects

Drainage drives most of what sells in this part of Mifflin County. Rain and snowmelt come off the ridges and land on drives and yards, so washed stone matters as much as base stone. Clean stone has no fines, water passes through it, and it will not pack hard.

Sizes run coarsest to finest, and each one has a job.

2B stone is the workhorse for drainage here. It goes in a French drain, fills a drywell, or runs a downspout away from the foundation. For tight bedding, #89 crushed stone or 3/8" Crushed Stone fills the gap around pipe and under pavers.

On the base side, 2A modified handles driveways, parking pads and shed floors. Crusher Run does the same compacting job with fines mixed in, though most buyers around here ask for 2A modified. Top it with Driveway Gravel once the base is compacted and dry.

Ground and Conditions in McVeytown

Base, driveway and paver work runs from spring, once the ground has thawed and dried, into late fall. Base stone should not go down on frozen, soft or muddy ground, because it will not compact and it will move later.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles. That heaves and breaks up a thin base or one that holds water, and frost depth here is commonly about 36 inches, set by each municipality. Deeper, well-draining base stone lasts far longer than a shallow one.

Ground conditions matter too. The valleys here are floored by shale or by limestone and dolomite that weather to clay, and concentrated runoff from roofs, gutters and drives can open sinkholes in those limestone valleys. Ridges and steep slopes send water down fast, scouring roadside ditches, culvert outlets and gravel drives. RipRap and clean stone at outlets take that hit better than anything that packs tight.

What gravel is best for a driveway in McVeytown?

Start with 2A modified. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it compacts hard and carries a vehicle without rutting. Top it with Driveway Gravel for a finished surface. If the drive sits wet or drains poorly, put clean 2B stone underneath so water can move through instead of sitting in the base.
