Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Teton, ID

Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Teton, ID

Idaho Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Teton, ID, and the dependable window for grading and base work runs from late spring into early autumn. Frozen ground stops compaction from late fall to early spring.

Road mix is the base most ground here gets, and the soil work above it starts with screened topsoil, garden soil and fill dirt.

Materials for Teton Projects

Grading and bed prep start with the ground itself. The Upper Snake River Plain and the eastern farm valleys carry thin soil over young basalt in places and deeper silt loam on farmed ground.

That means a lawn or a bed often needs soil brought in rather than worked. Top Soil is screened and clean, and it goes down over thin desert soil, basalt ground and stony mountain ground.

Where the native ground is too thin, too stony or too alkaline to plant into, Garden Soil fills raised beds and planting areas. Fill Dirt brings a low spot up before anything goes on top of it.

Under all of it sits the base course. 3/4 Road Mix is crushed base with the fines left in so it locks up under a roller.

Contractors here call the same load 3/4 minus.

Unprocessed gravel straight from the pit is Pit Run. It goes under road mix as sub base, as structural fill and for raising grade, and it is never a finished surface.

For water that has to move, Drain Rock is clean angular rock for french drains, foundation drains, drywells and downspout runs. Idaho sells it in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch.

Sand covers the flatwork side. Washed Sand beds pavers and slabs and mixes into concrete.

Mason Sand is the finer, even sand for brick and block work and paver joints.

Decorative work takes round rock. Snake River Rock fills decorative beds, borders and dry creek beds, and Large River Rock handles heavier borders and drainage swales.

Ground and Conditions in Teton

Water is the driver on this side of the state. Across the Upper Snake River Plain and the eastern farm valleys, basalt sits close to the surface and leaves water nowhere to go.

Drives and footings end up on thin ground over rock. Canal seepage and heavy spring irrigation lift the water table under low farmed ground.

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 the same ground.

That shapes what you put down. A clean open stone like drain rock gives water a path, while a fines-bearing base like road mix compacts and holds a surface.

Around Idaho Falls and through the upper Snake River towns, about 30 inches is the frost figure commonly used, and the local building official sets footing depth. Frozen ground stops compaction from late fall to early spring, so grading and paver work fits the late spring to early autumn window.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about gravel and aggregate delivery in Teton, ID

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Teton?

Yes. Quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard, and you choose the amount when you place the order online. Each product page has a calculator to help size the load. You pick a delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck tips the material in one pile at your site.

What stone should I use for drainage in Teton?

Use clean angular rock, not a fines-bearing base. Drain Rock is sold here in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch for french drains, foundation drains, drywells, septic drainfields and downspout runs. It gives water a path through ground where basalt sits close to the surface.

Where will the material be placed?

Wherever you tell us, as long as the truck can safely reach it. Mark the spot before the delivery and someone should be on site to point the driver to it. If nobody can be there, leave clear instructions when you order and we will follow them.
