Buy Crushed Stone in Brunswick, Maryland

Brunswick gets about 44 inches of precipitation a year. That means a driveway or base layer needs enough slope and a crushed stone size that drains well to avoid washouts. Choosing a clean, angular stone helps water move through the void spaces instead of pooling on the surface.

Gravel Monkey delivers crushed stone by the dump truck to your address in Brunswick and across Frederick County. You select the size, the tonnage, and a delivery window that works for you.

Crushed Stone Sizes You Can Order in Brunswick

The 3/4" crushed stone is the go-to size for most jobs around here. It balances load bearing with drainage and works under driveways, in French drains, and as a concrete base. Other sizes fill specific roles, and the table below shows what each one does.

Which Crushed Stone to Use for Common Brunswick Projects

The table below matches five typical jobs to the right product and a typical installed depth. Depth changes with soil conditions and the load the stone must carry.

Brunswick Weather and Soil Matters for Your Stone Base

Brunswick sees about 115 days a year where the temperature drops below 32 degrees F. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. A 6-inch base instead of a bare 4-inch can keep a driveway from heaving in the spring.

The area gets roughly 79 wet days annually, with at least a tenth of an inch of rain each time. Scheduling your delivery onto firm ground makes it easier for the truck to get in and place the load where you want it.

Soils mapped in the Brunswick area are commonly well drained. That reduces the need for extra base stone under the surface layer compared to heavy clay ground. The ground around Brunswick is in hydrologic group B, which means it takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard base depth is usually enough for good performance. Snowfall averages about 23 inches a year, and plowing can scrape a loose surface if the top coat is not locked in with a binder or enough compaction.

How to Figure Out How Many Tons of Crushed Stone You Need

Crushed stone is sold by the ton, not by the cubic yard. The weight of a cubic yard depends on the stone size and how much air is between the pieces. A good rule of thumb is that one ton covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. To get an exact number for your project, use our crushed stone calculator. It asks for the area and depth and gives you the tonnage to order.

Frequently Asked Questions about Crushed Stone in Brunswick

How many tons of crushed stone do I need for my project?

The answer depends on the area you are covering and the depth you want. A typical driveway takes about 1 ton per 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. Use our crushed stone calculator for a precise number.

Do you deliver crushed stone to Brunswick and the surrounding area?

Yes. Gravel Monkey delivers to Brunswick and all of Frederick County by dump truck. The county permitted about 1,185 single-family homes in 2024, so a lot of new construction and renovation is happening nearby.

What is the difference between the sizes you stock?

Size affects how the stone handles water, how it compact, and the kind of load it can carry. Smaller sizes like 3/8" are for tight fills and leveling. Larger sizes like 2 to 3 inches are for drainage and erosion control. Sizes in between, such as 3/4" and #57, are the workhorses for bases and drainage.

How is crushed stone measured and sold?

Crushed stone is sold by the ton. A ton can be roughly 1.3 to 1.5 cubic yards, depending on the stone size and moisture content. The price is set per ton, and you order by the whole ton.
