Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Spring Hill address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed gravel is an angular, compactable material that locks together under weight. It holds up under vehicle traffic, resists rutting, and drains well when properly graded. You buy it here by the ton, order online, and a dump truck delivers it to your address.
Spring Hill gets about 40 inches of precipitation a year. That much rain means you need to plan for drainage and washout, especially if the gravel sits on a slope or near a foundation. A well-designed base and surface layer prevent the material from washing away.
Not every crushed gravel size works for every job. The wrong size can shift under foot, rut in wet weather, or fail to compact. The table below lists the sizes Gravel Monkey delivers to Spring Hill, along with what each is best suited for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Top dressing and compacted paths | Too small for heavy traffic; packs into a firm walking surface. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Driveways and base layers | The workhorse size; handles cars and light trucks with proper compaction. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used under concrete or asphalt where weight distribution matters. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridging layer that spreads load before thinner surface stone goes on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Large voids let water pass; good for boggy spots or building up low areas. |
The table below pairs common project types with the crushed gravel size that works best. Surface type and traffic load drive the choice.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compacts well and allows water to drain around utility lines. |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift of 4 to 6 inches to stabilize the ground. |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel over 1 1/2" base | Two-layer design spreads heavy equipment loads. |
| Compacted base for concrete | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Uniformly graded; compact to 95% for slab support. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4-inch compacted layer keeps the pad level and dry. |
Soils mapped in the Spring Hill area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. That means water sits near the surface longer after rain. More base stone under the surface layer helps keep the gravel bed stable. Ground around Spring Hill is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place here.
About 61 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground avoids rutting from the truck tires. The county also sees about 12 inches of snowfall a year. Plowing can damage a loose gravel surface, so a well-compacted top layer matters. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
About 107 days a year drop below 32F. Ground freezing here is real but moderate, which affects how deep the base layer needs to be. Plan for a thicker base where traffic is heavy.
Figure the volume in cubic feet by measuring length times width times depth. Then convert to tons using the material's density. For a typical driveway or base, one ton of crushed gravel covers about 80 to 100 square feet at a 4-inch depth. Use our material calculators to get a precise tonnage for your project dimensions.
You order online by the ton. At checkout, enter your ZIP code to see the delivered price. A dump truck brings the load to your address. Loads range from 1 to over 40 tons. Free delivery applies on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.
Choose a delivery window: morning (7 am to 12 pm) or afternoon (12 pm to 5 pm). The required lead time is at least 3 business days after the order date. Gravel Monkey sends an email confirmation, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead after you approve that second email.
You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the window. The access road must be at least 12 feet wide. Learn more on the About Gravel Monkey page, read customer reviews, and see full delivery information.
Crushed gravel often works alongside other materials. The list below shows materials that complement it for a finished job.
Multiply the length in feet by the width in feet, then by the depth in inches. Divide that cubic footage by the material's density to find tons. Spring Hill gets about 40 inches of precipitation a year, so a project in a wet spot may need extra depth to account for washout. Use our material calculators for an accurate number.
Yes. Gravel Monkey delivers to Spring Hill and the rest of Johnson County by dump truck. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order. You choose a morning or afternoon window at checkout. About 61 days a year bring measurable rain, so schedule delivery onto firm ground.
Crushed gravel is not suitable for play areas or walking paths where bare feet contact it directly. It is also not a finishing mulch for flower beds. Use it for base layers, driveways, and drainage applications only.
The driver will dump the load as close to the requested spot as safety and site access allow. You need a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. Be available or nominate someone to direct the driver during the delivery window.
