Aggregate Delivery – Shoreline’s material sourcing strategically located for quick, cost-effective delivery

Rock quarries and sand and gravel pits supply vital building materials to construction sites all around the world – however the cost of aggregate delivery can substantially add to the budget of a project. This makes the need for quarry operations close to your project site vital to keeping your project on track and on budget. 

The delivered price of a metric ton of sand and gravel doubles at about 23 miles and doubles for crushed rock at about 45 miles. Given the cost of transporting aggregates over long distance, it is no surprise that as much as 90 percent of aggregates are used in projects within 50 miles of their extraction, or quarry, site.

Shoreline supplies aggregates like limestone, sand and gravel material from various locations around Illinois, Indiana and Michigan. This means shorter hauls to the job site—and the lowest possible transportation cost. Quarries are strategically located for quick aggregate delivery and competitive pricing.

“Ever-increasing transportation costs make it best to use aggregate as close to the source as possible. Stone, sand and gravel are bulky and heavy, and the further you transport them, the more expensive they become,” explained Amy Miller, General Manager of Shoreline Aggregate.

“We understand the need to have the best materials at the best cost, delivered when you need them. We have been delivering aggregate to our customers for over 35 years – working with them every step of the way to ensure jobsite delivers are efficient and timely,” Miller continued.

Shoreline’s aggregates are obtained from natural sand-and-gravel pits, and hard-rock quarries throughout Indiana, Michigan and Illinois. Shoreline’s fleet of trucks can deliver your specified aggregate materials right to your location, anywhere in our service area. 

Industry Highlight:

Quarrying is the process of removing rock, sand, gravel or other minerals from the ground in order to use them to produce materials for construction or other uses. So, a quarry is working on the surface of the earth where minerals are extracted. Quarries are also known by other names around the world: ‘surface mine’, ‘pit’, ‘open pit’ or ‘opencast mine’.
