Delivered Gravel and Base Stone for Kuna
Kuna is a mid-size city in Ada County. This page is set up for grading work such as raising a low yard, backfilling around a project, or building up a pad before construction. Idaho Rock Supply lists bulk gravel, sand, soil and stone for online ordering with a selected delivery date.
Base, fill and soil materials for Kuna projects
For driveways and compacted pads, start with 3/4 Road Mix, also called 3/4 minus or road mix. It is the local name for material aligned with ITD Section 703 3/4 inch aggregate base. The blend of crushed aggregate and fines compacts into a firm layer when placed in lifts and watered as needed.
Pit Run is useful for building up a pad or filling a larger area before the finished base goes down. Fill dirt also works for changing grade and filling low areas. Washed sand fits bedding and leveling work, while shredded mulch is used as a surface cover in planting areas.
Measure length and width in feet, then multiply by the planned depth in feet to find cubic yards. For a driveway, remove soft material first, establish the desired grade, then install base in manageable lifts rather than placing the full depth at once. Compaction between lifts keeps the surface from settling under traffic.
Ground, frost and drainage for Kuna and Ada County
Idaho's statewide frost-depth guide is 30 inches. Use that figure as a starting point for frost-sensitive work, then confirm requirements with the local building department before setting footings, posts or utility-related improvements.
Base depth depends on soil condition, traffic and drainage. A light-use driveway may use 4 to 6 inches of compacted base, while heavier use or weak ground calls for a deeper section. A soft or wet subgrade needs attention before aggregate goes down, since base placed over unstable ground will move with it.
Ground conditions vary around Idaho. Treasure Valley soils include alluvial gravel that drains readily, while the Palouse has deep loess and the Panhandle has clay that retains water. Identify the soil and drainage at the job before settling on a base thickness, and keep surface water moving away from the finished area.

Make sure the truck approach is clear and the planned dump location is marked before arrival. Keep vehicles, equipment and people out of the dumping path. Wet ground, narrow access and low overhead obstructions affect where material can be placed, so choose a firm, open spot with room for the truck to turn and unload.
