Delivery to Rush Valley and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick a quantity by the ton or by the yard. Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before you check out.

Pick your delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the load on site. That covers Rush Valley and the rest of Tooele County, including Tooele, Grantsville, Wendover, Stockton and Dugway.

Loose stone, soil and sand come in bulk. Plan for the pile to land where the truck can reach and leave the rest to your own equipment.

Materials for Rush Valley Projects

Decorative rock does a lot of work on dry ground here. Beds, borders, park strips and dry creek beds all want rounded stone that will not cut or fade under a hard sun.

Build a dry creek bed from Large River Rock. The 4 to 6 inch cobble holds its place when flash runoff comes off the fans, where a smaller stone would move.

For lighter decorative work, use Wasatch Cobble. It covers beds, mow strips and borders, and it reads as a finished surface rather than bare ground.

Ground cover matters where wind strips an unprotected surface. Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas and dog runs, and it beds pipe and drainage lines as well.

Under all of it, Road Base is the Utah untreated base course, also called UTBC.

Order it by top size, 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus. For a paver path, bed the stone on Crusher Fines and let it compact to a walkable finish.

Where water has to leave, use a clean stone. Drain Rock, also called washed rock, runs French drains, footing drains, window wells and downspout lines.

Ground and Conditions in Rush Valley

Across the West Desert and the Great Basin valleys, the ground is strongly alkaline and calcareous. Near the playas and the Bonneville Salt Flats in Tooele County, it is salt-affected as well.

An under-built base loses to that. Salt and alkali work up through an unprotected surface, and a thin layer of base course disappears into the subsoil instead of holding a load.

Water behaves the same way. Very little rain falls, but what does comes in summer cloudbursts with nowhere to soak in.

Fan gravel drains quickly. Basin clay and salt crust hold water at the surface for days, so a slab or a pad poured onto bare ground sits in it.

Untreated base course goes down over fill dirt that has been brought up to grade first.

Wind is the other driver. It strips fines off an unprotected surface before the stone is rolled, which is why the work is better scheduled around calm mornings.

The work season is long either side of a hot, dry summer, and water for compaction is the limiting factor in July and August. Winters are cold and dry with little snow cover, so the ground freezes and thaws repeatedly.

Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, so confirm it locally.

Questions About Ordering in Rush Valley

How much material will my project need?

Order by the ton or by the yard, whichever suits the job. Each product page carries a calculator, and that is the place to work out a quantity.

Bring your own measurements to it rather than guessing at the pile size, since depth and area both drive the figure. Start there before you check out.

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Rush Valley?

Yes. Quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard, and bulk loads are delivered to sites in Rush Valley and across Tooele County.

Choose the quantity, pick a delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck tips the load on site. Soil, sand, gravel and stone all move by bulk load.
