Globe climate and soil conditions for driveway gravel

Globe gets about 16 inches of precipitation a year, so washout and drainage are real concerns. A deeper drainage layer in the base helps water move through instead of washing the surface away.

With about 32 wet days each year, you want to schedule the delivery onto firm, dry ground. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part. Only 25 days drop below freezing, and frost is not significant here. That means the ground does not heave enough to require extra base depth for freeze protection.

The soil around Globe takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That makes a deeper drainage layer earn its place, especially in low spots where water collects.

Frequently asked questions about driveway gravel in Globe

Is Globe a wet enough area to worry about washout?
