Perryville gets about 53 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout planning matter for any project that uses crushed stone. The right size and base depth help keep the material in place and the water moving away.
Each crushed stone size has a job it fits best and a few it does not. The table below lists the products you can order, with a note on where each falls short so you avoid the wrong choice.
| Product | Best for | Not suitable for |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed and tight fill | Heavy traffic base or drainage layers |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | The all-purpose size for base and drainage | Fine grading under concrete slabs |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Walking surfaces or paver joints |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Compacted base layers for buildings |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | Loose surface topping for driveways |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Structural base under heavy loads |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Any application needing load-bearing strength |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | Drainage layers or wet-area subgrade |
Match your project to the right product using the guide below. Depth recommendations are typical starting points; the actual need depends on the soil and the load.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete slab base | 3/4" Crushed Stone | 4 to 6 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Pipe backfill | #57 Crushed Stone | Fill around pipe to 6 inches above crown |
| Paver bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone or #10 Rock Screenings | 1 inch for setting bed, 4 inches base if needed |
| French drain | #57 Crushed Stone | Fill trench 4 to 6 inches around perforated pipe |
| Driveway base layer | 3/4" Crushed Stone or #57 Crushed Stone | 6 to 8 inches, compacted thoroughly |
About 72 days a year see at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which makes scheduling the delivery onto firm ground important. A wet surface compacts poorly and can trap water under the stone. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
Perryville averages about 69 freezing days per year. Ground freezing here is real but moderate, which influences how deep the base layer needs to be to resist shifting. Snowfall runs about 2 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is a minor risk but worth planning for if you have a driveway.
The ground around Perryville takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That means a deeper drainage layer earns its place, especially under any slab or paved area that needs to stay dry and stable.
Figuring out the right tonnage starts with the area and the depth you plan to use. Multiply length by width by depth in feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then convert to tons using the material's density. You can skip the math with our crushed stone calculator, which does the work for any size and project.
Buying crushed stone from Gravel Monkey is done online. You choose the product and quantity, pick a delivery window at checkout (morning 7 am to 12 pm or afternoon 12 pm to 5 pm), and pay per ton. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery.
You receive an email confirmation when the order is placed, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. Someone must be present at the site during the window; absence can lead to a redelivery fee. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck.

Yes. The ground around Perryville is mapped in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds runoff across the surface. That behavior means you may need a deeper drainage layer under crushed stone to keep water from sitting in the base and causing settling or washout.
Delivery cost is calculated by ZIP code at checkout. The price varies with distance from the nearest supplier in the Gravel Monkey network. You see the exact delivery charge before you place the order, and there are no hidden fees.
A driveway that sees cars and light trucks typically needs 6 to 8 inches of compacted crushed stone. Heavier vehicle traffic may require 8 to 12 inches. The depth should be placed in lifts of 4 to 6 inches, with each lift compacted before adding the next.
Yes. Smaller crushed stone, such as 3/4 inch or #57, packs tighter because the pieces nest together with fewer voids. Larger stone, like 2 to 3 inch, leaves more air space and does not compact as densely, which makes it better for drainage than for load-bearing surfaces.
