3/4 Minus, Stone and Soil Delivery in American Falls, ID

Idaho Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in American Falls, ID, from road mix for a driveway base to washed stone for drainage. Ground here runs thin over young basalt, so what sits under a drive matters as much as what sits on top.

You order by the ton or the yard, and a dump truck tips the load on site.

Materials for American Falls Projects

Water is the reason to start with washed stone. Basalt close to the surface leaves meltwater and irrigation water nowhere to go, so a French drain, a drywell or a downspout run needs clean rock with no fines to clog it.

Drain Rock is the washed, angular stone for those jobs, sold in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch sizes. #57 Stone and #4 Crushed Stone cover the same work at different sizes, and Idaho yards often call for them by inch size instead.

For anything that carries weight, road mix is the base. It is crushed base with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller, and a contractor asking for 3/4 minus is asking for the same load.

3/4 Road Mix goes under driveways, parking pads, shop floors and shed slabs. Pit Run is unprocessed gravel straight from the pit, used as sub base, structural fill or to raise grade.

Above the base, the size you pick decides how the surface behaves. 3/4" Crushed Stone is angular rock that stays put on a drive or around a pipe.

3/8 Chip is the finer angular option for paths and for topping a compacted base.

Sand and soil round out a site. Washed Sand beds pavers and slabs, Mason Sand suits brick, block and paver joints, and Top Soil builds a lawn over stony ground.

Ground and Conditions in American Falls

Across the Upper Snake River Plain and the eastern farm valleys, the working season is short. Frozen ground stops compaction from late fall to early spring, and the dependable base and paver window runs from late spring into early autumn.

That timing shapes a delivery. If you are building a base, schedule it for ground that will take a roller, and plan drainage work for the same window so a trench is not open through a freeze.

Spring runoff off the Caribou and Centennial ranges, wind moving dune sand and dry field soil, and canal bank and culvert washouts during snowmelt all push water across this ground. Rip rap armors a creek bank, canal bank or culvert outlet against it.

Frost depth is set by the local building official, and the figure commonly used at Idaho Falls and through the upper Snake River towns is about 30 inches. Check with the official for your footing depth.
