Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Chinle address and unloads right where you point.
Order crushed gravel online by the ton and a dump truck delivers one drop to the spot you mark at your property in Chinle. The delivery date is chosen at checkout and must be at least 3 business days after the order date. Chinle gets about 11 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning important for any gravel surface.
You choose a delivery window at checkout: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. You get an email confirmation when the order is placed, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.
Crushed gravel is crushed and angular, which helps it lock together under load. The split between base material and finish material depends on whether the surface will carry traffic or just sit as a decorative layer. Here are the sizes available for delivery to Chinle.
| Product | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works well as a top dressing for walkways and patios. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | This is the most versatile size for residential driveways. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good for truck access roads and equipment pads. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a stable starting point before smaller stone goes on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Ideal for building up a base in wet areas or low spots. |
Choosing between a budget option and a long-term option depends on the subgrade condition and how much traffic the surface will see. Soils mapped in the Chinle area are commonly moderately well drained, so a proper base layer can make the difference between a surface that lasts and one that shifts.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel as first lift, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel on top | 6 to 12 inches of base depending on conditions |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted in lifts |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches compacted for stability |
| Farm and site access road | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel base with 3/4" Crushed Gravel surface | 8 to 12 inches total depth |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Layer thickness depends on pipe depth |
Chinle gets about 11 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter. The ground around Chinle is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. This behavior calls for a deeper drainage layer under the crushed gravel to move water away from the base.
About 166 days a year drop below 32F. The ground freezing here is real but moderate, and that affects how deep the base layer needs to be to avoid frost heave. About 32 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is wise to avoid rutting. About 21 inches of snow falls a year, and plowing can damage a loose surface if the crushed gravel is not compacted well.
Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. If you plan a crushed gravel driveway or pad, compacting each lift gives the surface a better chance of holding up through freeze-thaw cycles.
Calculate the tonnage by multiplying the length by the width by the depth in feet, then dividing by the cubic feet per ton for the specific crushed gravel size. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to get an estimate for your project. The calculator lets you enter dimensions and pick the product to see how many tons to order.

Crushed gravel works well with these materials for a complete project.
Yes. About 166 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift an un-compacted base, so it is best to order crushed gravel when the ground is dry and not frozen. Plan the work for late spring through early fall to avoid working in frost conditions.
About 32 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground avoids the truck rutting the subgrade. If the ground is wet at delivery time, the driver unloads as close to the requested spot as safely possible.
