Gravel & Rock ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Hardy address and unloads right where you point.







When you order gravel and rock from Gravel Monkey, a dump truck delivers to the address you specify. You mark the spot where you want the pile dropped, and the driver places it there.
The ground around Hardy takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That runoff makes base depth and drainage planning important for any project.
Gravel and rock projects split into two groups: base materials that compact into a stable foundation, and finish materials that provide the visible surface. The products below cover both needs.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth surface that is comfortable underfoot. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Naturally smooth and varied in colour for a decorative look. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Stays in place on slopes and creates bold dry creek lines. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular stone that moves water quickly without clogging. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Compacts to a hard, natural-looking surface with regular maintenance. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Angular stone with fines that locks into a solid sub-base. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty material designed for repeated vehicle traffic. |
The table below gives a quick reference for common projects. You can choose either a budget-friendly option or a longer-lasting material depending on traffic and use.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 2 to 3 inches, compacted in layers |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches for weed suppression |
| French drain | Drain Rock | 12 to 18 inches around the pipe |
| Dry creek bed | 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches for a natural look |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches to prevent washout |
Hardy receives about 51 inches of precipitation each year, which means drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel surface. About 73 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling your delivery onto firm ground is important.
About 98 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That freezing affects the work window and can make the ground move if the base is not compacted well. Snowfall adds about 5 inches a year, and plowing a loose surface can damage it.
Ground freezing in Hardy is moderate. That influences how deep the base layer needs to be. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
The amount of gravel or rock you need depends on the area and depth of your project. To get a reliable estimate, use our material calculators on the website.

Yes, with about 51 inches of precipitation a year, washout is a concern. Proper drainage and base depth are important to prevent erosion of your gravel surface.
Drain rock is the best choice for a French drain. Its clean, angular shape allows water to flow through freely while keeping the drain functional.
