Peak Sand and Gravel

What Peak Sand and Gravel does

Peak Sand and Gravel, Inc. is a privately held construction aggregates operator founded in 1993 by Larry Peak and headquartered in Sandpoint, Idaho. The company produces and sells sand, gravel, and rock products (including base materials, drain rock, rip rap, boulders, quarry spalls, basalt products, and screened sand) sourced from eight independent pit locations across North Idaho, and provides complementary services through a fleet of seven portable rock-crushing plants, a diverse trucking fleet (dump trucks, pup and transfer trailers, belly dumps, side dumps, a 75-ton lowboy, and a 2024 conveyor truck), and a 12,000 sq ft in-house maintenance facility with a 15-ton overhead crane.

The business serves state, county, and local government agencies (primarily for road projects), paving/concrete/civil contractors, residential and commercial developers, and timber operations across Idaho, Washington, and Montana. Custom on-site crushing is delivered to customer job sites via the portable fleet, and aggregate placement is offered at $195/hr using the conveyor truck. Distribution mixes walk-in/estimate-driven sales at pit locations with delivery-and-placement service provided by the company's own trucking fleet.

Peak monetizes through three primary streams: per-ton/yard aggregate product sales, professional-services fees for mobile crushing, and hauling services priced by truck type and load (e.g., Super Dump at 23 tons, Truck & Pup or Transfer at 30 tons). The company is founder/family-controlled with no disclosed institutional investment, no public listing, and no M&A history; a partnership with Basin Resources extends capacity at the Granite Hill Pit under a structure where Peak handles crushing and hauling while Basin manages day-to-day operations and billing.
