“I run a small excavation outfit out of the Gorge and we used thirty tons of number four under a customer's new shop pad above Hood River, where the wind off the river and the winter rain turn any exposed clay into a mess by December. We compacted in two lifts over fabric before topping with finer rock in the spring. Oregon Rock Supply had the tri-axle out within two days of the order, which mattered since we were racing a weather window before the fall rains set in. Eight months later the pad hasn't shifted, and the drainage around it works exactly like we planned.”

When Willamette Valley clay remains saturated through the wet season, water under traffic can bring ruts to the surface. #4 Crushed Stone leaves ample open space within the aggregate, helping drainage move through a heavy support course. It resists shifting under heavy loads, which matters at entrances and regularly used access lanes. This fits driveways and farm or vineyard roads where wet ground needs support below traffic.
Start it low in the driveway build, then place a tighter aggregate finish above it if a smoother driving surface is wanted. That arrangement keeps this stone in the role it handles best while allowing drainage below. Along the Oregon Coast or in the Columbia River Gorge, it can help control erosion in ditches and on slopes where runoff needs a durable stone covering.

Base rock that survived a wet Gorge winter
I run a small excavation outfit out of the Gorge and we used thirty tons of number four under a customer's new shop pad above Hood River, where the wind off the river and the winter rain turn any exposed clay into a mess by December. We compacted in two lifts over fabric before topping with finer rock in the spring. Oregon Rock Supply had the tri-axle out within two days of the order, which mattered since we were racing a weather window before the fall rains set in.

Kept the equipment lot out of the mud
Out here on the high desert past Burns the equipment yard turns to gumbo every winter when the snow melts off. Put down about eighteen tons ahead of calving season and the tractor and stock trailer both track through clean now. Delivery window ran almost two hours past what we were told, but the driver called ahead and the load was exactly what we ordered.

Good base rock, one heavy chunk
Ordered twenty tons for a driveway rebuild on a rental up above Grants Pass where the old base had washed out toward the creek. The tandem got in fine on a narrow gravel drive and dumped it in two spots like I asked. Compacted well under the plate compactor. One in twenty pieces was closer to boulder size and I had to break it up by hand.

Solved years of spring mud near John Day
My husband and I ranch a little ground out past John Day and the two track into the hay barn turned to soup every March. We ordered fifteen tons of number four and had it spread before the ground froze again. The rock locked in over the wet spots and the feed truck hasn't gotten stuck once since, even after this year's snowmelt.

Fixed our washboard driveway for good
Our lane off the forest road turned to ruts every spring melt. Six tons of number four went down as base and it packed hard within a week. No more scraping the truck's undercarriage on the way in.
