Walkway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Spring Hill address and unloads right where you point.





Ordering walkway gravel in Spring Hill means buying by the ton online and having it delivered to your address in a dump truck. The standard load runs from one ton up to 40 tons, and the price is calculated by ZIP code at checkout. Spring Hill gets about 40 inches of precipitation a year, so washout planning matters for any loose-surface path.
Gravel Monkey sources from regional suppliers, so the exact product depends on local quarry output. You pick the size, choose a delivery window, and approve the load before it leaves the yard.
Each walkway gravel product suits a different use. The table below shows what each size works for and what it is not good for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | Not ideal for steep slopes; needs edging to stay put. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Too fine for driveways; packs well but can wash out in heavy rain. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Not suited for barefoot areas; drains better than smaller sizes. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Loose underfoot; not for heavy traffic or wheelchair access. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Too large to walk on comfortably; best used as visual accent. |
The project type drives the right size and depth. Use this guide to select the product for five common walkway applications.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches deep; use larger stone to stay in place during a heavy flow. |
| Garden path | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches; compacted base layer recommended below. |
| Patio base | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 4 inches; provides drainage under pavers or flagstone. |
| Side-yard walkway | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | 3 inches; allows water to pass while staying stable. |
| Play area surfacing | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 4 to 5 inches; finer stone reduces tripping hazard. |
Soils mapped in the Spring Hill area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. That means more base stone is needed under the surface layer to keep water from pooling in the path. 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 ruts from the truck. About 107 days a year drop below 32 degrees F, which narrows the working season and means the ground moves more with freezing and thawing.
About 12 inches of snow falls each year, and plowing can damage a loose surface if the gravel is not compacted well. Frost penetration is real but moderate; the base layer depth should account for it. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
Tonnage depends on the area, the depth you choose, and the stone size. A 2-inch layer of walkway gravel covers about 100 square feet per ton, but larger stone needs more volume for the same coverage. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to estimate the right amount before you order.
Buying is done entirely online. Select your walkway gravel size, enter the tonnage, and choose a delivery window at checkout: morning from 7 am to 12 pm or afternoon from 12 pm to 5 pm. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date. You get 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 once you approve that second email.
You need to be onsite during the delivery window, or have someone you nominate. The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet.

The smallest load is one ton. One ton of 3/8-inch walkway gravel covers about 100 square feet at a 2-inch depth. You cannot order less than a full ton per product, but you can mix sizes on the same truck.
Spring and early fall are best because the ground is firm and the frost is out. Spring Hill has about 107 freezing days per year, so the soil can be soft or frozen in winter. Deliveries are scheduled year-round, but the work window narrows during freeze-thaw cycles.
The difference is the diameter of the individual stones. 3/8-inch is the smallest and easiest to walk on. 3/4-inch is larger and works for wider paths with wheelbarrow traffic. 1-inch to 1 1/2-inch is looser and suited for informal areas. 2-inch to 3-inch is decorative only, not for walking.
Yes. Smaller sizes like 3/8-inch pack tightly because the pieces fill gaps between each other. Larger sizes leave more air space and do not lock together as firmly. For a base layer that needs compaction, use a smaller walkway gravel.
