I need to buy a truck bed load of gravel. Is there somewhere I can load it myself?  I live in Weiser.

Go to google maps.

Type ......gravel rock landscaping

Call the ones closest to you for a price per cubic yard.

They load it with a small tractor....because shoveling a cubic yard of gravel will suck.


OR......

Go to facebook marketplace.

Type gravel rock in the search bar.

Someone will probably have job leftovers, and you can shovel that if you want.


Pro tip....I have a load handler that doesn't fit my newer truck's tailgate.
It's a bed mat with a crank that works well to empty the bed of gravel, sand, whatever, into a wheel barrow, or onto the ground.
I can deliver it for you to keep forever for $10

Let us know how it works out if you do it.
I haven't since it would cost almost as much in fuel to drive down vs buying locally. The yard is a few miles from the house and I get to use their loader. I get 3 yds at a time with my dump trailer though.
