Beebe Climate and Soil Considerations for Driveway Gravel

About 72 freezing days and 2 inches of snow each year mean freeze-thaw cycles can heave a shallow base. That is why a deeper first lift is recommended. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.

Soils mapped in the Beebe area are commonly moderately well drained. More or less base stone under the surface layer depends on your specific lot. The ground around Beebe is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions About Driveway Gravel in Beebe

Does the length of the freeze season in Beebe change what I should order?

Yes. Because about 72 days a year drop below freezing, a deeper base helps prevent frost heave. Consider starting with the 2 to 3 inch gravel for the first lift.

Is Beebe wet enough that drainage should drive the choice?

Yes. With about 53 inches of precipitation a year, water moves slowly through the C/D group soil. A well-draining base and a top layer that locks together, like the 3/4 inch size, reduce washout.

Which size is the most common choice for this material?

The 3/4 inch driveway gravel is the most common. It locks together well for a stable surface and suits most driveways.

What is the difference between the sizes of driveway gravel you stock?

The sizes range from 3/8 inch for smooth walking surfaces up to 2 to 3 inches for muddy rural lanes. Each size serves a different purpose, from top dressing to deep base.
