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







The price you pay for a gravel delivery depends mostly on the tonnage you order and your ZIP code. Time of year also affects scheduling.
Vincennes gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning are important when you choose a stone size and shape.
Not every gravel works for every job. A rounded stone sheds water well but will not lock together, while a crushed angular stone compacts firm but traps moisture. The table below lists what each product is suited for and where it falls short.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth; will not lock under foot traffic. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Natural look but does not compact; stays loose. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Heavy enough to stay put on slopes; hard to walk on. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular, no fines; allows water to move through. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Loose when dumped but compacts to a hard surface with moisture. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Contains fines that lock together; not a finished surface. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy duty; stays stable under weight if compacted in lifts. |
Match your project with the right gravel and rock by depth and material. This table uses the products listed above.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| French drain | Drain Rock | 4 to 6 inches around the pipe; clean stone for water flow. |
| Dry creek bed | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches; use larger stones for visible creek effect. |
| Landscape beds | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | 2 to 3 inches; easy to walk on but shifts. |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches; heavy stone resists washout. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 3 to 4 inches compacted; choose a base if soil is soft. |
Vincennes sees about 73 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground avoids ruts and compaction of wet soil. About 98 days a year drop below freezing, which limits the work window to stable ground. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
Soils mapped in the Vincennes area are commonly well drained. That means you may need less base stone under the surface layer, but it is guidance, not your own soil test. The ground around Vincennes soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, so less drainage stone is needed under the surface.
Snowfall averages about 12 inches a year. Plowing a loose gravel surface can push material off line, so consider a compacted top course like Decomposed Granite or a stabilized base if the surface is plowed regularly.

Pair gravel and rock with these related materials to complete your project.
Yes. Vincennes averages about 98 days a year below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That many freeze-thaw cycles can shift loose gravel over time. Using a crushed base stone like Crusher Run under a decorative layer reduces movement.
Yes. With about 47 inches of precipitation a year and 73 wet days, drainage matters. A product like Drain Rock or a porous surface such as Decomposed Granite helps water move away from structures and slopes.
No. Someone must be present during the delivery window to accept the load. You can nominate a neighbor or contractor. If nobody is on site, a missed delivery fee may apply and the order is not refunded.
Orders must be placed at least 3 business days before your chosen delivery date. You select a morning or afternoon window at checkout. Ordering a few days ahead ensures your preferred time remains available.
