Fayetteville gets about 49 inches of precipitation a year. That much rain means drainage and washout planning are essential. The ground around Fayetteville takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. This makes a deeper base layer and proper slope more important than in areas with faster-draining soil.
About 92 days a year drop below freezing in Fayetteville. That many freeze-thaw cycles can heave paved surfaces, but gravel shrugs off the movement better than concrete. About 6 inches of snow falls each year; plowing can gouge a loose surface if the gravel is not compacted well. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. Having about 68 days with at least a tenth of an inch of rain means scheduling your delivery onto firm ground to avoid ruts.
For any project that will see vehicle weight, crusher run or road base as the bottom layer prevents shifting during freeze and thaw. Decorative top-dress rock can be shallower, but the base beneath it needs to be right for the climate.
Tonnage depends on the area and the depth you plan to lay. Most residential jobs run from 1 to 20 tons. Use Gravel Monkey's material calculators to enter your dimensions and get a tonnage estimate in seconds. The calculator works for any product on this page.

Gravel and rock solve the top layer and drainage, but the whole job often needs these companion materials.
Yes. Gravel Monkey delivers to Fayetteville and many nearby communities in Washington County. The county permitted about 1,915 single-family homes in 2024, so plenty of new properties are ordering materials. Delivery is priced by ZIP code at checkout, and you choose a window.
Delivery cost depends on the distance from the regional supplier and the size of your load. The exact price is shown at checkout when you enter your ZIP code. Fayetteville's precipitation of about 49 inches a year means many customers order enough depth for drainage, which can affect total cost, but the delivered price is all-inclusive and we show it before you commit.
No. You or someone you nominate must be present during the delivery window. The driver needs a person to confirm the drop location and to approve the load after seeing the second confirmation email. Absence can result in a redelivery fee.
The sizes range from fine decomposed granite (under 1/4 inch) up to 2-4 inch river rock. Smaller sizes like pea gravel and decomposed granite work for walkable surfaces and tight spaces. Larger river rock and drain rock handle erosion control and drainage. Crusher run and road base are gap-graded with fines, so they compact into a solid base.
