Materials for Garrison Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here, and that work runs on soil, not stone. Screened topsoil, garden soil and fill dirt carry the early stages, then base and washed stone take over once grades are set.

Fill dirt raises low ground and backfills around foundations before any base goes down. It is the first load on a cut lot that needs to come up to grade.

Order Fill Dirt when the pad is still below the surrounding ground.

Screened topsoil covers that fill once grades are right. Ground in this part of the state runs alkaline and low in organic matter, and new lots are often stripped down to clay subsoil, so imported topsoil is a practical starting point for a lawn.

See Top Soil for bed prep and turf.

Garden soil goes where you are planting rather than seeding. A soil and compost blend feeds raised beds and planting areas that native ground cannot.

Look at Garden Soil for vegetable beds and shrub borders.

Once grades are set, untreated base course, which Utah yards and crews shorten to UTBC, is the compacting layer under driveways, parking pads, slabs, shed bases and paver work. Size it by top size, 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus.

Road Base is the same material under its plain-language name.

Washed stone handles water. Drain rock, sold as washed rock or clean rock, suits French drains, footing drains, window wells and downspout runs.

For trench backfill and drainage beds, 3/4" Crushed Stone is a good fit.

Sand beds and levels. Washed sand, also called concrete sand, goes under pavers and slabs and into mixes.

Mason sand suits block work, paver joints and play areas. Order Washed Sand for bedding and leveling.

Decorative stone finishes the front. Natural Pea Gravel fills walkways, dog runs and dry borders where a rounded stone is wanted.

Ground and Conditions in Garrison

Start with water and where it goes. Across the West Desert and the Great Basin valleys, very little rain falls, but what does arrives in summer cloudbursts.

That water sheets across hardpan and playa crust with nowhere to soak in. On basin floors, clay and salt crust hold water at the surface for days after a storm.

Alluvial fan gravel along the mountain fronts drains quickly by contrast. If your ground sits on fan material, water moves through it.

If it sits on basin clay, water sits on it.

That difference decides how you build. On clay and salt ground, a drainage layer under a pad does more work than extra base thickness does.

Drain rock and Crushed Stone give sheet flow and roof runoff somewhere to go.

Erosion comes from three directions here. Wind across open basin floors strips fines off an unprotected surface.

Sheet flow and flash flooding come off the alluvial fans. Salt and alkali work up through bare ground.

An unprotected surface loses fines to wind before it is ever rolled. That matters on a base course left open through a windy stretch.

It also matters on topsoil sitting exposed before turf goes in.

The work season is long on either side of a hot, dry summer. Water for compaction is the limiting factor in July and August, when the ground is at its driest.

Winters are cold and dry with wide day-to-night swings and little snow cover. The ground freezes and thaws repeatedly through the season rather than staying frozen.

Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, so confirm the figure for your site locally.

Delivery to Garrison and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives on a dump truck and tips in one pile where the truck can reach. That is the whole of it.

Have the drop area clear before the truck arrives.

Think about overhead lines, soft ground and anything you do not want buried. A loaded truck needs room to pull in and out and a surface that will carry it.

Ordering happens online. You choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and each product page has a calculator to help size the load.

Pick a delivery date at checkout and the truck comes.

Utah Rock Supply delivers across Millard County, including Delta, Fillmore and Hinckley, along with outlying sites around Garrison.
