Crushed Stone ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Palm City address and unloads right where you point.








When you order crushed stone from Gravel Monkey, a dump truck brings the material to your address and deposits it in one pile where you mark the spot. You choose the delivery window at checkout, and someone must be on site to receive the load. Delivery is priced by ZIP code, and loads run from one ton to over 40 tons.
Palm City gets about 61 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter. A crushed stone base helps water move away from structures and keeps surfaces stable. For driveways, patios, or drainage projects, crushed stone gives a firm foundation.
Crushed stone comes in many sizes, each suited to a different job. The smaller grades, like stone screenings and 3/8 inch stone, work best as a top layer or under pavers. Larger sizes, from 3/4 inch up to 2 to 3 inches, are better for base layers and drainage. In Palm City, where the ground tends to stay wet, choosing the right size for your project is especially important. The table below lists the crushed stone products we deliver to Palm City addresses.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed and tight fill | Works well as a leveling course under interlocking pavers and patio stones. |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | The all-purpose size for base and drainage | Compacts firmly and gives stable support for driveways and slabs. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Angular pieces lock together, ideal for load-bearing fills. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Large enough to resist movement in drainage channels and steep slopes. |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | Open gradation allows water to flow through while providing structure. |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Slightly larger than #57, often used in concrete and utility trenches. |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Small, uniform particles fill gaps and support pipes evenly. |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | Fine material that screeds smooth and locks into place when compacted. |
Choosing the right crushed stone for your project can save money now and prevent repairs later. A smaller stone might cost less per ton, but a larger, angular stone compacts better and lasts longer under heavy use. The table below suggests a product and note for common jobs.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| French drain | #57 Crushed Stone | Place around the pipe, compact in lifts for good drainage. |
| Concrete slab base | 3/4" Crushed Stone | Spread and compact to a firm, level surface before pouring. |
| Pipe backfill | #67 Stone | Use around utility pipes to allow water to drain away. |
| Driveway base layer | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Compacted base provides a solid foundation for asphalt or gravel. |
| Paver bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone | Screed to uniform depth, then compact before setting pavers. |
Palm City gets about 61 inches of precipitation each year, so water management is critical. With roughly 92 days a year that bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling your delivery onto firm ground helps avoid a muddy mess. A well-compacted crushed stone base sheds water and stays stable.
Soils mapped in the Palm City area are commonly poorly drained, which means water moves slowly through the ground. Depending on the drainage of your specific site, you may need a thicker base of crushed stone to prevent settling. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point.
The area records only one freezing day a year, so frost heave is rarely a concern, but the ground does shift slightly with moisture changes. Martin County permitted about 524 single-family homes in 2024, a county figure that shows new construction activity. For new builds, crushed stone provides the foundation for driveways, patios, and drainage systems.
To figure out how many tons of crushed stone you need, measure the length, width, and desired depth of your project area in feet. Use our crushed stone calculator to get a tonnage estimate based on your measurements. This helps you order the right amount and avoid extra trips.

Yes. Soils in the Palm City area are commonly poorly drained, so you may need a deeper base of crushed stone to prevent settling. The extra drainage stone keeps water from pooling under your surface and extends the life of the project.
Delivery cost is calculated at checkout by ZIP code. With about 92 wet days a year in Palm City, scheduling on dry ground may affect timing but not the price. Use the code FIRSTTIMER50 to save $50 on your first order.
Yes. Angular, larger stones lock together better when compacted. Smaller, rounder stones may not hold as tight. For load-bearing jobs, choose a crushed stone with sharp edges to get the densest base.
The depth needed depends on the soil strength and vehicle weight. In general, heavier loads require a thicker base of compacted crushed stone. In Palm City, the poorly drained soil may call for a deeper layer than the standard recommendation.
