Driveway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Alaska address and unloads right where you point.






Gravel Monkey delivers driveway gravel across Alaska by the ton. The delivered price depends on how much you need and where the truck goes. Bulk buying cuts per-ton cost, but the right product prevents rework.
Choosing the wrong size or base can lead to washouts or a soft driveway. Ordering the right material the first time saves money.
Not every driveway gravel suits every condition. Here is what each product is for and where it falls short.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | general driveway top layer | Works for most driveways but can wash out on steep grades. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Too fine for heavy traffic or muddy lanes. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | the standard driveway size, locks together well | Needs a solid base to resist frost heave. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | heavier traffic and soft ground | Overkill for a light-use parking pad. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | deep base layer under a finer top | Not meant as a finished driving surface. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | rural lanes, mud control, first lift | Too coarse for a smooth top coat alone. |
The job you are doing decides the gravel. Match your project to the right product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Resurfacing an existing driveway | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | Apply 2 to 3 inches over a compacted base. |
| Muddy rural lane | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | First lift of 4 to 6 inches for mud control. |
| New driveway base | 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Layer 4 to 6 inches before a finer top. |
| Culvert and shoulder repair | 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Use 3 to 4 inches to handle heavier traffic. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | Compact 4 inches for a stable surface. |
Soil in many served Alaska cities falls into hydrologic groups B and A/D. Group B drains well; group A/D can be wet. That affects how much base you need. A thicker base of 1 1/2" or 2"-3" gravel may be needed on poorly draining soil.
Annual precipitation across our delivery cities runs from about 13 to 76 inches. More rain means more washout risk; coarser gravel and a good base help. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
Freezing days range from about 149 to 234 a year. Frost heave can move gravel. A deep base and proper drainage reduce that.

Across our Alaska delivery cities, annual rainfall runs from 13 to 76 inches. In wetter areas, choose a coarser gravel and a thicker base to prevent washout. Freeze-thaw cycles also matter: up to 234 freezing days per year can heave a shallow driveway.
Alaska DOT&PF runs a spring load-restriction program that may limit truck weights on certain roads during thaw. Delivery windows account for that, but it can affect scheduling.
We offer six sizes: general Driveway Gravel, 3/8", 3/4", 1"-1 1/2", 1 1/2", and 2"-3". Each fits a different job from topping to base layers.
