Buy Crushed Stone in Inkom, Idaho

If you are planning a driveway base or a French drain, crushed stone from Gravel Monkey is a solid choice. Two sizes that get used often are 3/4" Crushed Stone for general base work and #57 Crushed Stone for drainage layers. Inkom gets about 14 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any stone bed that needs to stay put.

Crushed stone comes in several graded sizes, each suited to a different part of the job. The angular edges lock together, which gives the surface stability under weight and resists shifting over time.

Crushed Stone Products We Deliver to Inkom

Choosing between base material and finish material is the first step. For the layer under concrete or asphalt, a larger crushed stone like 3/4" or 1"-1 1/2" works well. For a compacted surface like a paver patio, finer sizes such as 3/8" Crushed Stone or #8 Stone give a smoother finish.

Choosing Crushed Stone for Common Jobs in Inkom

For a budget-friendly option, use a single-size crushed stone like #57 for both base and finish. For a longer-lasting installation, separate the base layer from the surface material. The table below shows typical choices.

Weather and Soil Conditions in Inkom

Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall. About 167 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can push an unstable base out of level, so proper compaction and depth matter.

Inkom gets about 38 inches of snow a year. Plowing can damage a loose crushed stone surface if the base isn't locked in. A well-compacted layer of 3/4" crushed stone under the top surface helps prevent ruts.

Soils mapped in the Inkom area are commonly well drained. That means the ground around here takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depth is usually enough. Deep and long ground freezing, though, means the base layer needs to be placed below the frost line to avoid movement.

How Much Crushed Stone You Need

Estimating the right tonnage depends on the area you are covering and the depth of the stone layer. Use our crushed stone calculator to get a close figure. Enter the length, width, and depth of the area, and it tells you the approximate tons you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the smallest load of crushed stone you deliver to Inkom?

The smallest load we deliver is 1 ton. That amount covers a small area, such as a paver patio base roughly 10 by 10 feet at 3 inches deep. Inkom gets about 44 wet days a year, so keeping the delivery site firm and dry is important for the truck access.

Does the soil around Inkom change how much crushed stone I need?

Yes, the local soil characteristics affect the base depth. Soils mapped in the Inkom area are commonly well drained, so standard base depth is usually enough. The ground around Inkom is in hydrologic group B, which means it takes water in at a moderate rate, so you do not need extra stone just for drainage.

What size crushed stone should I choose?

For a base layer under concrete or asphalt, 3/4" Crushed Stone or #57 Crushed Stone works well. For a surface layer like a walkway or patio, use 3/8" Crushed Stone or #8 Stone. For heavy-duty areas like erosion control, choose 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone or larger.

Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?

Yes, we deliver to rural addresses in Bannock County and the surrounding area. The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet and a firm surface to unload. You select the delivery ZIP at checkout, and the price adjusts accordingly.
