3/4 Crushed Rock and Bulk Aggregates for Trampas, NM

New Mexico Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Trampas, NM, by the ton or by the yard. Base course is the local name for the compacted material under drives, parking pads and shed slabs.

Trampas sits in Taos County, up in the northern high country. Snowmelt and monsoon runoff move fast off steep slopes once the ground has crusted over.

Materials for Trampas Projects

Water is the driver on most sites here. Washed stone and open graded rock give runoff somewhere to go instead of sitting against a foundation.

Start coarse for French drains, drywells and downspout runs. Drain Rock is the open graded stone for those trenches.

RipRap armors arroyo banks, culvert outlets and slope faces against flash flow.

Mid sizes handle surfacing and heavy drainage. 3/4 Crushed Rock works for drive surfacing, drip strips and construction entrances.

#57 Stone and #67 Stone are specification sizes for drainage trenches and concrete aggregate.

Finer washed stone beds and tops out. 3/8" Crushed Stone is a fine drainage and pipe bedding size, and it also works as a topping course over compacted base course.

#8 Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone go into tight bedding and narrow paver joints.

For a compacted surface, base course is the material. It comes as Type I or Type II and as 3/4 minus.

Base Course goes under driveways, parking pads and slab bases.

Sand and soil round out a site. Mason Sand beds block, brick and adobe work and takes stucco and plaster coats.

Washed Sand is the bedding and leveling sand under slabs and flatwork.

Ground here is thin and often over caliche. Top Soil rebuilds a lawn or tree well, and Garden Soil fills raised beds above a hard layer instead of cutting through it.

Bulk delivery covers Trampas and the rest of Taos County, including Taos, Ranchos de Taos, Questa, Penasco and Vadito. A dump truck tips your material on site in one pile.

Rural approaches and tight mountain driveways are worth a look before the truck arrives. Check that the route in and the spot you want the pile both have room.

Ground and Conditions in Trampas

The working season runs roughly late spring through October. Frozen ground stops compaction all winter, and the high valleys thaw last.

Time a delivery around that window.

Soils across the Sangre de Cristo, Jemez and the northern high country run to Stone Screenings and stony mountain ground, with sandy clay alluvium and caliche in the basins below.

Water arrives faster than that ground will take it once the surface has crusted. Snowmelt comes off the high country in spring, then monsoon cloudbursts run down steep slopes and shallow soil.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Steep slope runoff, arroyo and acequia bank scour after storms, and heavy post fire runoff off burn scars all move material.

That is why drainage rock matters as much as surface rock here. A drywell, a French drain or a downspout run gives the water a path before it finds one through your driveway.
