Columbia Quarry Co. offers A, B, C, and D grade rock to support everything from heavy infrastructure builds to fine leveling. These materials are produced using high-performance crushing equipment and monitored to ensure they pass inspection and meet agency specs. That’s quality you can count on. Certain rock products of CQC meet stringent material standards set by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT).

This membership supports our mission to deliver high-quality material and contribute to strong, lasting structures across the region. Being part of SIBA keeps us informed, engaged, and continually improving our services to better serve our customers in Southern Illinois.

From material processing to onsite loading and hauling, we’ve built every plant with customer safety and efficiency in mind. Whether you’re picking up dirt or receiving rock via truckload, our teams ensure it’s handled with care and compliance.
