Choosing the Right Crushed Gravel for Your Project

The table below matches common projects around New Plymouth with the best crushed gravel size. Depth depends on the subgrade and load, but these serve as a starting point.

How New Plymouth's Climate Affects Your Crushed Gravel Project

New Plymouth gets about 10 inches of precipitation a year, which means runoff and drainage need to be part of the plan. About 34 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling a delivery onto firm ground takes some attention to the forecast. The ground here freezes on about 131 days a year, which shortens the work window and can push the ground surface as ice lenses form.

Snowfall averages about 10 inches a year. That can reach a loose surface and cause plowing damage, so a compacted top layer holds up better. Frost penetrates deep and stays long, so the base layer needs to be thick enough to resist frost heave. The soil around New Plymouth takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface, which means a deeper drainage layer earns its place under drives and pads. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.

Estimating How Much Crushed Gravel You Need

Calculate the volume of your project area in cubic feet, then convert to tons. One ton of crushed gravel covers roughly 100 square feet at 2 inches deep, but that varies by size. Use our material calculators to get a precise tonnage before you order. The calculator works for any shape and any of our sizes.
