Buy Crushed Stone in Louisiana

A six-inch-thick driveway base over a 1,200-square-foot area takes about 18 tons of crushed stone. A French drain around the house might use 4 or 5 tons. Whether the project is small or large, Gravel Monkey delivers crushed stone throughout Louisiana by the ton, straight to your address.

We source from regional quarries, so the exact color and size may vary, but you always get a crushed rock that meets industry grades. You order online, pick your delivery window, and the truck shows up.

Louisiana Conditions and How They Affect Your Crushed Stone Job

Across the cities we deliver to in Louisiana, annual precipitation runs from about 56 to 66 inches. That much rain means drainage is the main concern for any crushed stone installation. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts. The number of freezing days ranges from about 11 to 42 days a year below 32F, depending on where in the state, but most of the state sits in the negligible band for ground freezing.

The soil across the served cities most often falls into hydrologic groups C and D, which means slow infiltration. For a driveway or base layer, that usually means you need a deeper stone base than you would on sandy soil. Four to six inches is common, but the exact depth depends on the load and the drainage on your specific property.

Because there is not a deep frost line, you do not need to worry about heaving in most of Louisiana. The rain and the soil type are the two factors that drive how thick the crushed stone base needs to be.

How to Estimate the Tonnage of Crushed Stone You Need

The amount you need depends on the area and the depth you plan to put down. A good first step is to measure the length and width in feet, pick a depth in inches, and multiply to get cubic feet. You can then convert to tons using our crushed stone calculator, which does the math for you. It shows you tons for any size and depth.
