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





Walkway gravel comes in sizes from 3/8 inch to 2 to 3 inches, and the size you pick changes how the path feels and how well it stays put. Smaller stones like 3/8 inch pack firm for a smooth walking surface, while larger gravel stays loose for drainage or decorative uses. Gravel Monkey delivers walkway gravel across California by the ton to the address you give us. Order online, choose a delivery window at checkout, and a dump truck brings the load.
No yard visits, no pickup. The truck arrives at your site during the window you choose.
For most California walkway projects, the standard Walkway Gravel is the first choice. It works for general path and walkway surfacing. If you need a finer or coarser surface, the alternatives below give you more control.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | Versatile blend for most residential paths. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Produces a tight, smooth surface underfoot. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Holds up under light wheeled traffic. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Stays loose; good for low-traffic areas. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Large stone; use as border or accent. |
The table below shows which walkway gravel to order for typical projects and the recommended depth.

California's climate varies widely across the cities we deliver to. Annual precipitation ranges from about 9 to 41 inches, and freezing days range from about 2 to 88 days per year, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the negligible band for ground freezing.
The dominant soil hydrologic groups across served cities are C and A. On soils that drain slowly, you may need a thicker base layer to keep the walkway stable. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is.
In dry months, installation is straightforward. In wet periods, allow extra time for the base to dry and compact.
