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







A loose driveway that ruts in the thaw or a path that shifts underfoot? The size and type of gravel or rock you choose decides how well the surface holds. Gravel Monkey delivers gravel and rock by the ton to addresses across Colorado, from 1 to 40 plus tons in a single load.
The right size starts with what the surface needs to do. Fine crushed stone compacts for a firm walk. Larger rock stays put on a slope. We carry sizes from a smooth pea to a hefty 4-inch river rock.
The product Colorado customers order most often for driveways and bases is crusher run, because it locks together under a load. For patios, paths and decorative beds, the alternatives below give you choices in color, texture and function.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth, easy on bare feet. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Natural tones, weed suppression, stays put. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Holds on slopes, handles runoff. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clear stone that channels water fast. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Compacts into a solid, permeable surface. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | The standard base material for driveways and parking areas. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty blend for high traffic areas. |

Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in Colorado runs from about 12 to 21 inches. Freezing temperatures occur between roughly 154 and 232 days a year, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing, which means frost can reach deep into the soil.
The dominant soil hydrologic groups in the served areas are C and B. These soils drain moderately to slowly, so a well-compacted base layer of gravel or rock becomes essential to keep the surface from shifting after rain or thaw. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts.
Choosing a product that compacts well, like crusher run or road base, helps the surface stay level through freeze-thaw cycles. For decorative rock, a layer of crushed stone underneath prevents the rock from sinking into the soil.
