Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Littlefield address and unloads right where you point.
Littlefield gets about 7 inches of precipitation a year. That dry climate means crushed gravel surfaces face less washout risk than in wetter areas, but drainage still matters when the rare rain does come.
For contractors and property owners who need a durable, angular aggregate for driveways, base layers, or site access, crushed gravel delivers a tight interlock that holds up under load and resists shifting. The material's sharp edges lock together well, making it a solid choice for compaction.
For most jobs in Littlefield, 3/4" Crushed Gravel is the go-to size. It works for base courses, driveways, and compacted fill. Here are the sizes we stock and what each is best for.
| Product | What it's for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Best for paths and paver bases where a smooth finish matters. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Handles vehicle traffic and compacts tightly. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Use under concrete or in commercial applications. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak spots before a finer layer on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | For very soft ground or building up low areas. |
Different projects call for different depths and sizes. This table matches typical tasks to the right product and thickness.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 12 inches as a stabilizing first lift |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted over a geotextile |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Place in lifts and compact for pipe bedding |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches for a level, compacted base |
| Compacted base | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches under paving or heavy loads |
Littlefield's climate is dry, with about 7 inches of precipitation a year. That modest rainfall reduces the chance of crushed gravel washing out, but the ground around here is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That behavior makes a deeper drainage layer worthwhile, especially in low spots.
With about 22 wet days a year, scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is manageable. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. About 62 days a year drop below 32F, but the ground does not freeze deep enough to affect base layer depth. Snowfall runs about 1 inch a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is rarely a concern.
The county saw about 2,459 single-family home permits in 2024, reflecting active development. Many new lots need a stable access road or a compacted base for a shed or slab. Crushed gravel fits those needs well.
Estimating the right tonnage starts with the area and the compacted depth you need. Use our material calculators to get a quick number based on your project's dimensions.

Yes. The soil in the Littlefield area is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That means a deeper drainage layer of crushed gravel is often needed to handle surface runoff, so you may require more material than in areas with sandy, fast-draining soil.
The smallest load we deliver to Littlefield is 1 ton. That is enough for a small pad or a short walkway. For larger projects, we can deliver up to 40 tons or more on a single truck.
No. Someone must be present at the site during the delivery window to receive the load. If no one is there, the delivery may be missed and a redelivery fee can apply. You can nominate a neighbor or crew member to be present.
The difference is the particle size, which affects how the material compacts and what it is best for. 3/8" Crushed Gravel makes a fine, smooth surface suitable for paths and paver bases. 3/4" Crushed Gravel is the standard for driveways and base layers. The larger sizes, 1" to 3", are used for structural fills and mud control. All sizes are angular and interlock well.
Whether you are building a new driveway or laying a stable base for a shed, crushed gravel from Gravel Monkey can be delivered directly to your site in Littlefield. The 3/4" size is the most popular, but the right choice depends on your ground conditions and the load you need to support.
