Choosing the Right Crushed Gravel for Your Project

Match the project to the material. The table below shows what we recommend for five common jobs, along with the depth or placement note.

How Kimberly's Climate Affects Your Crushed Gravel Project

About 31 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling a delivery onto firm ground matters more in Kimberly because wet soil loses strength. If the truck arrives after a rain, the base layer may need extra preparation.

Around 142 days a year drop below freezing. The ground freezes deep and stays frozen a long time. That is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer: frozen ground heaves, and if the base is not deep enough, the surface will crack or shift when it thaws. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. Snowfall averages about 24 inches a year. Plowing can tear up a loose surface, so consider a top dressing of 3/8" crushed gravel after the driveway settles.

The soil around Kimberly takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place, especially under a compacted pad or road where trapped water softens the subgrade. Plan for a 4 to 6 inch base of open-graded stone where drainage is critical.

Other Materials That Pair Well with Crushed Gravel

Crushed gravel often works together with other bulk materials to complete a project. Consider these options:

• Mulch - Top your crushed gravel pathways with mulch for a finished look and weed suppression.
• Topsoil - Spread topsoil over a crushed gravel base for a stable lawn or garden bed.
• Walkway Gravel - If you need a smaller, more decorative stone for walkways, walkway gravel is an alternative.
• Crushed Stone - Crushed stone is also crushed and angular; choose it where you need a specific color or a harder aggregate.
• Driveway Gravel - For a dedicated driveway surface, driveway gravel blends sizes for better compaction and less dust.
• Crushed Concrete - A recycled alternative for base layers where color consistency matters less.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Gravel in Kimberly

How many wet days a year should I plan a crushed gravel delivery around in Kimberly?

Kimberly sees about 31 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Plan your delivery for a dry stretch and schedule at least 3 business days out to give the ground time to firm up after a wet spell.

Does the ground in Kimberly freeze hard enough to change when I should order?

Yes, about 142 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and the ground freezes deep. Order well ahead of the freeze or after the thaw in spring, because frozen subgrade will not compact properly and can heave after the crushed gravel is down.

Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?

Yes, we deliver to rural addresses in the Kimberly area. You enter your delivery address at checkout. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they safely can.

What size crushed gravel should I choose?

The right size depends on what you are building. For a compacted base under a shed or slab, start with 3/4" crushed gravel. For a farm access road or heavy traffic area, use 1 1/2" crushed gravel as the base lift. The job table earlier in this page gives specific recommendations for common projects.
