Buy Road Mix in Lucile, ID
Idaho Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Lucile, ID to rural ground where the wet months decide the schedule. Sticky loess mud through spring is the real constraint, so hauling and compaction go best from late spring through fall.
Road mix is the base material yards here call for on drives, pads and shop floors. Order it online by the ton and a truck tips it on your site.
Materials for Lucile Projects
Base and driveway surfacing is where most Lucile ground work starts, and road mix leads it. Road mix is crushed base with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller and carries a load.
Contractors here also order the same load as 3/4 minus, and public works plans in Idaho call it crushed aggregate by type. All three names point to the same material.
Pit run is unprocessed gravel straight from the pit, rock and fines at whatever sizes the pit gives. It fills holes and brings a low spot up before a base course goes on top.
Drain rock is clean angular rock, sold here in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch. It moves water instead of holding it, which is what a drain needs.
For a finished drive, 3/4 inch crushed rock is an angular rock that stays put. For paths, 3/8 chip knits together where Natural Pea Gravel rolls underfoot.
Sand and soil round out a site. Washed concrete sand beds pavers and slabs, mason sand fills paver joints, and screened topsoil rebuilds ground that is too thin to plant into.
Decorative work takes round rock and cobble for beds, borders and dry creek beds. Rip rap armors creek banks, culvert outlets and pond edges against snowmelt and cloudburst runoff.
Ground and Conditions in Lucile
Water is the driver on this ground. Silt loam over loess seals under rain and sheds water instead of taking it in, so long slopes push runoff onto roads, drives and yards.
Water also perches where the loess sits on basalt. A drive that takes runoff from above needs a drainage layer, not just more surface rock.
Across the Palouse hills and the Clearwater and Snake canyons, sheet and rill erosion on cropped loess slopes is among the heaviest anywhere in the country. Canyon roads, culverts and creek banks scour under spring runoff and summer cloudbursts.
Plan base work for the dry window. Hauling and compaction go best from late spring through fall, and the canyon towns get a longer window than the prairie above them.
Frost depth is set by the local building official, and no published figure covers this county. Ask the jurisdiction that issues your permit.
