Bulk Material Delivery in Felt, ID
Idaho Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Felt, ID to your site. Start with road mix, the crushed base with the fines left in that locks up under a roller.
It is the base course under driveways, parking pads, shop floors and shed slabs. Order online and a dump truck tips the load where you need it.
Materials for Felt Projects
Felt sits in Teton County, where spring snowmelt and rain on snow scour creek banks and mountain roads. Coarse stone is how you armor a slope, a swale or a bank against that runoff.
Riprap is the heaviest answer. It armors creek banks, culvert outlets, canal banks, pond edges and cut slopes against snowmelt and cloudburst runoff.
Below riprap in size, drain rock is clean angular rock for french drains, foundation drains, drywells, septic drainfields and downspout runs. It comes in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch.
3/4" Crushed Stone is the angular rock for drive surfacing, pipe bedding and drainage where stone needs to stay put. Idaho says crushed rock far more often than crushed stone.
At the finer end, 3/8 Chip tops a compacted base on pathways and leveling courses. Chips are angular, so they knit together and stay where they are put.
For the base itself, 3/4 Road Mix is the same material contractors call 3/4 minus or crushed aggregate on public works plans. Pit run is unprocessed gravel straight from the pit, used as sub base and structural fill rather than a finished surface.

Ground and Conditions in Felt
This part of the state has the shortest working season in Idaho. Snow and frozen ground close out base and paver work from late fall until the ground dries in late spring.
The reliable window runs from early summer to early fall. Time your delivery inside that window so the material goes down on ground that can take it.
Soils across the Central Idaho mountains and high valleys are thin and coarse over granite, with glacial till and moraine around the valley heads. They drain fast where they are deep.
Where the soil is shallow over bedrock, or the subgrade is still frozen, meltwater runs across the surface instead of soaking in. That is the water that scours banks and cuts into a fresh grade.
Spring breakup softens and ruts gravel roads and drives as the frost comes out. Long hard mountain winters bring deep snow and deep frost, and the local building official sets footing depth.
Questions About Stone and Delivery in Felt
What stone should I use for drainage in Felt?
Use clean washed stone, not a fines-bearing base material. Drain rock in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch or 2 inch suits french drains, foundation drains, drywells and downspout runs.
For heavier flow at a culvert outlet or along a bank, riprap is the coarser choice. Keep road mix and pit run out of drainage, since the fines in them hold water rather than pass it.
What should I have ready when the truck arrives?
Have the dump spot clear and reachable so the truck can back in and tip the load in one pile. Mark nothing for the driver and expect no spreading; the load lands where it is dumped.
Order by the ton or the yard, and use the calculator on the product page if you want to size the load first.
