Order Untreated Base Course and Crushed Stone in Rich County, UT
Utah Rock Supply delivers gravel, stone and aggregate in Rich County, UT, and untreated base course leads the list. Utah plans and submittals call that material untreated base course, or UTBC, and it goes under driveways, parking pads, slabs and paver work.
Ground here is thin and stony on the slopes, with stream and glacial gravel in the valley bottoms and pockets of heavy clay in old meadow ground. Rock sits close to the surface in a lot of places, which decides how deep anything can be dug.
Materials delivered in Rich County
Base material is specified in Utah as untreated base course.
Base, washed stone and sand
Untreated base course is the compacting base for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and paver work. Order it by top size, and keep the subgrade and the base separate in your thinking.
Washed stone is clean and open, so it drains instead of binding. Use drain rock in French drains and downspout runs, and 3/8" Crushed Stone for pipe bedding and paver joints.
Sand covers two jobs. Mason Sand is for brick and block work and paver joints, while Washed Sand beds and levels under pavers and slabs.
Soil, fill and decorative stone
New lots are often stripped to clay subsoil, so imported screened topsoil is the usual start for a lawn. Garden Soil is a soil and compost blend for raised beds, because native ground is low in organic matter.
For beds and borders, Wasatch Cobble and Large River Rock handle decorative work, and Shredded Mulch holds moisture through a hot, dry summer. Fill Dirt raises grade before a base course goes down.

Ground conditions across Rich County
Snowmelt dominates the water picture across the Wasatch Back and the mountain valleys. A deep snowpack releases over a few weeks and saturates the valley bottoms while the subsoil is still frozen.
Steep ground sheds that melt fast onto the valley floors and driveways below. That is why drainage stone and armoring matter as much as base depth on sloped ground.
Erosion shows up as gullying on cut slopes and driveways, stream bank scour in the mountain creeks, and runoff carrying soil off bare construction ground. Riprap on a wash bank or culvert outlet slows that down.
The building season is short. Compaction is not practical on frozen ground, so base and paver work is squeezed into late spring through early autumn, and gravel drives take a beating from plowing all winter.
The hardest freeze in the state outside the high plateaus brings deep snow cover, long frozen spells, and severe freeze-thaw as the ground opens in spring. Frost depth figures are set by each jurisdiction, so check with the local building official for the number that applies to your footing.
Choosing the right material
Start with what the ground does with water. Heavy clay in old meadow ground holds it, so drainage stone and a clean base matter more there than on the gravelly valley bottoms.
On slopes, snowmelt arrives fast. Riprap and large cobble armor the banks and outlets, while crusher fines surface paths that stay walkable.
For a drive or pad, untreated base course is the compacting layer. For a bed or border, rounded cobble and mulch do the work.
