Delivery to Terrebonne and the Surrounding Area

You order online, pick a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and choose a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck then tips the load on your site in one pile.

Terrebonne sits in Deschutes County, and delivery covers the surrounding county as well, including Bend, Redmond, Sisters, La Pine and Brothers. Point the truck at open, reachable ground and the pile lands there.

If you are unsure how much to order, start with the calculator on the product page. It takes your numbers and returns a quantity.

Nothing else is needed to place the order.

Materials for Terrebonne Projects

Decorative rock does a lot of the finish work out here. Beds, borders and dry creek beds want rounded stone, and the local vocabulary is specific about which one.

Willamette River Rock is water-worn stone off the valley river bars, rounded rather than crushed. It suits decorative beds and borders where you want color and smooth texture instead of sharp edges.

Large River Rock is the heavier round stone. Use it in dry creek beds, under downspouts as a splash pad, and on bank work where smaller stone would wash out.

For paths, play areas and dog runs, 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel gives you a smooth rounded surface. Oregon yards say Natural Pea Gravel, and this is the size that fits that job.

Crushed materials cover the structural side. 3/4 Minus, also called 3/4-0 or dense-graded base rock, is crushed rock graded from 3/4 inch down to fines so it compacts and locks up.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, shop floors and shed bases.

1/4 Minus, or quarter minus, is the fines product. Use it to bed pavers and flagstone, to top a compacted base, and to fine grade paths.

It is a bedding and finishing material, not a base.

Keep the pair straight: minus material holds its fines and compacts, clean or open material is screened free of fines and drains. A driveway wants a minus rock under it.

A drain wants a clean one.

Ground and Conditions in Terrebonne

The ground across the Central Oregon and the High Lava Plains is young volcanic country, with pumice, cinder and ash soils and thin soil over hard rock along the rims. That ground drains fast, and it does not hold moisture well enough to compact easily.

Precipitation across this zone runs about 8 to 12 inches a year. The usual problem is not shedding water, it is getting enough moisture into the material to compact it.

An under-built base on dry pumice stays loose.

Wind moves bare pumice and ash, and short intense summer thunderstorms cut channels in dry draws. That is where riprap and large round stone earn their place on banks and outlets.

The working season runs long and dry from late spring into autumn, cut short at both ends by hard frost. Summer compaction normally needs added water.

Frost depth in this zone runs 12 to 18 inches below 4,000 feet, and Deschutes County points applicants at the state design criteria hub for the figure at a given site.
