Buy Driveway Gravel in Arkansas

Driveway gravel projects in Arkansas often need between a few tons and over forty tons, depending on the area you need to cover and the depth you choose. Resurfacing an existing drive uses less material than building a new base for a rural lane.

Gravel Monkey delivers driveway gravel throughout Arkansas by the ton, straight to your address in a dump truck. Compare the sizes below, work out your tonnage, and get a delivered price at checkout.

Driveway Gravel Sizes We Deliver in Arkansas

Weather and Ground Conditions for Driveway Gravel in Arkansas

Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in Arkansas runs from about 49 to 55 inches. That much moisture can soften the ground beneath a driveway, so a well-draining base layer is important to prevent rutting and settling.

Freezing temperatures occur roughly 50 to 92 days a year across the state, and most of Arkansas falls in a moderate band for ground freezing. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles can heave an un-compacted base, which is why proper compaction during installation is critical.

The most common soil hydrologic groups across served cities are D and C, which drain slowly. That means a thicker gravel base is often needed to keep the driveway stable in wet conditions. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
