Road Mix Delivery for Lenore, ID
Idaho Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Lenore, ID to anyone building on ground that sheds water instead of drinking it. Silt loam over loess seals under rain across the Palouse hills and the Clearwater and Snake canyons.
Runoff rides the long slopes and lands on your drive, your pad and your yard.
Road mix is the answer under all of it. Idaho yards call it road mix, or 3/4 road mix, because the fines stay in and it locks up under a roller.
Order it by the ton and a dump truck tips it on site.

Materials for Lenore Projects
Start with what the ground needs before anything goes on top of it. A low spot, a soft corner or a pad that has to come up to grade wants fill and sub-base first.
Get that right and the finished surface has something to sit on.
For raising grade and building pads, Fill Dirt brings a low spot up before a base course goes over it. Pit Run is unprocessed gravel straight from the pit, rock and fines at whatever sizes the pit gives.
Use it as sub-base under road mix, as structural fill, or to fill holes and raise grade.
3/4 Road Mix is the compacted base course for driveways, parking pads, shop floors and shed slabs. Contractors on public works plans specify the same material as crushed aggregate, called out by type rather than by a class number.
A contractor ordering 3/4 minus and a homeowner ordering road mix are asking for the same load.
For a long rural approach, Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted road mix base. Drain Rock is clean angular rock for french drains, foundation drains, drywells, septic drainfields and downspout runs, sold in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch.
For a patio or a path, 3/8 Chip tops a compacted base and knits together because the chips are angular. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is round and uncrushed, which suits patios, dog runs, play areas and walkways.
Washed Sand beds pavers and slabs and backfills concrete work.
Ground and Conditions in Lenore
Deep windblown loess lies on Columbia River basalt across this part of the state, with bare rimrock and talus in the canyons and thinner ash-capped forest soils on the Palouse Range. That silt loam seals under rain and sheds water instead of taking it in.
Water perches where the loess sits on basalt.
An under-built base fails on that ground. Sheet and rill erosion on cropped loess slopes here is among the heaviest anywhere in the country, and canyon roads, culverts and creek banks scour under spring runoff and summer cloudbursts.
Plan drainage before you plan the surface.
Sticky loess mud through the wet months is the real constraint. Hauling and compaction go best from late spring through fall, and the canyon towns get a longer window than the prairie above them.
Cold, wet winters bring frequent freeze and thaw cycles.
No published frost depth was found for these counties, and the Idaho code leaves the frost line to the local jurisdiction, so the building official sets it. Ask before you set footings or dig.
Questions About Material in Lenore
What is the best base under pavers in Lenore?
Road mix gives pavers a compacted base that locks up under a roller, and the fines left in it help it hold. Bed the pavers themselves in washed concrete sand.
Over silt loam that sheds water, drainage under the base matters as much as the base itself.
Do you supply contractors working in Lenore?
Yes. Contractors order online the same way homeowners do, choosing a quantity by the ton or by the yard and picking a delivery date at checkout.
Base material specified on public works plans as crushed aggregate by type is the same road mix sold here as 3/4 Road Mix. Bulk loads go to job sites in Lenore and across Clearwater County.
