Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Rexburg address and unloads right where you point.
Rexburg sees about 184 days a year below freezing, and the ground frost runs deep. That freeze-thaw cycle puts a lot of stress on gravel surfaces, so choosing the right crushed gravel size and depth matters. This page covers the sizes available for delivery to your Rexburg address and what each one is best for.
Whether you are laying a driveway, building a shed pad, or stabilizing a muddy access lane, crushed gravel holds up better than rounded rock because the angular pieces lock together. The key is matching the size to the job and putting enough base stone under the surface layer.
The most-ordered crushed gravel in Rexburg is the 3/4" size, used for driveways and base layers. The table below shows all the sizes available and what each is best for.
| Size | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works as a topdressing or under pavers for a smooth finish. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Handles car traffic and compacts into a firm surface. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good for farm trucks or equipment traffic. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soil before topping with a smaller size. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Used in wet areas or for building up low spots. |
The table below matches common projects to the right product and a suggested depth. Depths are after compaction unless noted.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel as first lift | 6 to 8 inches, then top with 3/4" |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compact in 6-inch lifts |
| Farm and site access road | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 10 inches for heavy trucks |
| Compacted base for asphalt or concrete | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches, well tamped |
Rexburg gets about 14 inches of precipitation a year, which is not much, but the ground in the area takes water in slowly. Soils mapped here are commonly moderately well drained, and the hydrologic group C behavior means water that does fall tends to shed across the surface rather than soak in. That makes a deeper drainage layer under your crushed gravel a smart move, especially if you are working on a flat lot.
Snowfall averages about 66 inches a year. Plowing that snow off a loose crushed gravel surface can push the stone around and create ruts, so a compacted base of 3/4" material holds up better than a thin layer. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall. The ground freezing is deep and long, which means the base layer needs to be thick enough to resist shifting when the frost comes out in spring.
Madison County permitted about 186 single-family homes in 2024, so many new lots in the Rexburg area need driveways and pads from scratch. Starting with a proper crushed gravel base saves rework later.
To figure out how many tons you need, measure the area in square feet and decide the depth in inches. Multiply length by width by depth, then convert that volume to tons using the density of crushed gravel. Use our material calculators to do the math and see the delivered price for your Rexburg address before you order.

Many Rexburg customers order these materials in the same trip or alongside their crushed gravel.
Yes, because soils in the Rexburg area are commonly moderately well drained and fall into hydrologic group C, which means the ground takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That behavior usually calls for a deeper drainage layer under the crushed gravel, especially on flat sites, which increases the total tonnage compared to a site with sandy soil.
The smallest load is 1 ton. Given that Rexburg averages about 66 inches of snowfall a year, a thin layer may get pushed around by plows, so a thicker base is often worth the extra tonnage.
The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet. If access is restricted, the crew will unload as close to the requested spot as they safely can. The driver cannot drive over soft lawns or narrow paths, so plan the drop zone in advance.
Order at least 3 business days ahead. The delivery date is chosen at checkout, and you pick a morning or afternoon window. A valid phone number is required, and you will get a confirmation email with a photo of the load before delivery goes ahead.
