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







You order gravel and rock in Yorktown by the ton, online, and a dump truck brings it to your address. No yard visit, no rental trailer, no bag count. You pick the material and the day, and Gravel Monkey handles the rest.
Yorktown gets about 42 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning drive every material choice here. The right stone and the right base keep a surface in place season after season.
None of these products work for every job. The table below tells you what each one is for and where it falls short, so you pick the right load the first time.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas and patios | Rounded and smooth, it does not lock together. Not for driveways or slopes. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Smooth and decorative, but it shifts under foot traffic. Not a walking surface. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Good on slopes, but the size makes it hard to walk on. Not for paths. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular stone that moves water fast. Not a top dressing. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Compacts into a hard surface, but it washes out without a proper base. Not for wet areas. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Contains fines that lock it tight. Not a finished surface for most uses. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty compaction under load. Overkill for a flower bed border. |
Match the project to the material. These five Yorktown jobs show what you need and how deep to place it.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches. The size holds against runoff. |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches. Suppresses weeds better than mulch. |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock and Drain Rock | Drain rock base, river rock top. Directs water without ponding. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Fill the trench to 12 inches below grade. Wraps in filter fabric. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite over Crusher Run | 4 inches of crusher run base, 2 inches of DG on top. Compact each layer. |
About 80 days a year in Yorktown bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling a delivery onto firm ground matters because wet soil ruts under a loaded truck. Pick a dry stretch in the forecast and make sure the drop zone is solid.
Roughly 128 days a year drop below 32F in Yorktown. That narrows the work window for placing gravel and rock, and it means the ground shifts when it freezes and thaws. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. A well-compacted base of crusher run or road base handles that movement without your surface layer heaving.
Soils mapped in the Yorktown area are commonly well drained, so standard base depth is usually enough for most jobs. The ground around Yorktown takes water in at a moderate rate, which means a 4-inch base under a surface layer handles typical loads without extra engineering.
Tonnage depends on area, depth and material density. Measure the length and width of the area in feet, decide your depth in inches, and run the numbers through the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site. The calculator gives you a tonnage figure you can order directly.

These materials go under, over or alongside your gravel and rock order. Each one solves a specific problem on the same job.
Yes. About 128 days a year drop below 32F, and the ground freezing here is deep and long. That forces you to wait until the soil thaws and dries before placing a base layer. Ordering in late spring or early fall gives you the best conditions for compaction and settling.
About 80 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Plan your delivery for a stretch with no rain in the forecast so the truck can access the drop zone without rutting the ground. Wet soil under a load of gravel and rock compacts into a mess that is hard to fix.
It depends on the job. Small sizes like 3/8" pea gravel work for paths and play areas. Medium river rock handles beds and borders. Large 2-4" rock controls erosion on slopes. For a base layer under any surface, use crusher run or road base, which have fines that compact tight.
