How Wellington's Climate Affects Your Driveway Gravel Choice
Wellington gets about 36 inches of precipitation a year. That moisture means drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel driveway. About 53 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is worth thinking about.
About 108 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can move an unsettled base. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Ground freezing is moderate, which affects how deep the base layer needs to be.
About 9 inches of snowfall a year means plowing can damage a loose surface. The ground around Wellington takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface, so a deeper drainage layer earns its place.
Estimating How Much Driveway Gravel You Need
To estimate the tons required, measure the length and width of your driveway and the planned depth. Use the driveway gravel calculator to get a tonnage figure for your project. Gravel Monkey delivers by the ton, so accurate estimates help you order the right amount.

Frequently Asked Questions About Driveway Gravel in Wellington
Does the length of the freeze season in Wellington change what I should order?
Yes. With about 108 freezing days a year, a deeper base layer and good compaction help prevent shifting. A 3/4" or larger size that locks together is recommended.
Is Wellington wet enough that drainage should drive the choice?
Yes. With 36 inches of precipitation and slow-draining soils, a drainage layer of 1"-1 1/2" or 2"-3" gravel under the surface helps manage water.
Which size is the most common choice for this material?
The 3/4" Driveway Gravel is the standard choice for most residential driveways. It locks together well and handles typical traffic.
What is the difference between the sizes of driveway gravel you stock?
Sizes range from 3/8" smooth dressing to 2"-3" for heavy-duty base layers. Smaller sizes are smoother and easier to walk on; larger sizes handle weight and soft ground.
