Gravel & Rock ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Massachusetts address and unloads right where you point.







Contractors plan a driveway or parking lot by the dump-truck load. Homeowners often think in wheelbarrows. Gravel Monkey delivers both. You order gravel and rock by the ton online, from 1 ton to 40-plus, and it arrives on a dump truck at your Massachusetts address.
The difference is the scale. A contractor sizes a pad in cubic yards; a homeowner repairs a walkway in bags. Either way, we bring the material you need, with delivery priced by ZIP at checkout.
Gravel and rock come in a wide size range. Pick the shape and dimension that match your project. Each product is linked to its detail page for full specifications.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth, comfortable underfoot. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Natural, smooth stones that stay put. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Holds slopes and adds a bold look. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular stone for water flow. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Compacts to a hard, stable surface. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Mixed stone and dust, locks tight when compacted. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty mix for load-bearing surfaces. |
Every project has a failure mode. Match the rock type to the problem you are solving.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Dry creek bed | River Rock or 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches, with liner underneath. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Wrap in fabric to keep soil out. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite or Crusher Run | 4 inches, compacted in two lifts. |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | Use larger rock; deeper layer on steeper slopes. |
| Landscape beds | River Rock or 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | 2 inches over landscape fabric. |
Across the cities we deliver to in Massachusetts, annual precipitation runs from about 48 to 51 inches. That moisture percolates through soil and into a gravel base. The state also sees roughly 115 to 153 days a year below 32F, which drives repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing.
Hydrologic soil groups A and D are the most common across our served cities. Group A drains fast; group D is clay-heavy and holds water. Consequence: base depth guidance. On slow-draining ground, a thicker layer of Crusher Run or Road Base is needed to keep the surface stable over the winter. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
The spring season brings road restrictions that can affect delivery routing. Gravel Monkey works with local haulers to navigate these. Your delivery date is set at checkout, at least 3 business days out, which gives time to adjust.
We deliver to dozens of cities. From the coast to the western hills, each address gets the same dump-truck service.
Gravel Monkey delivers to addresses across Massachusetts, not only the cities listed here.
Estimate tonnage by the cubic foot of the area. A 100-square-foot patch at 4 inches deep needs roughly 1.2 tons. Use our material calculators to convert dimensions to tons. Enter length, width, and depth for an instant estimate.
Gravel and rock are heavy, so delivery by a truck that dumps right where you need it matters. Order online by the ton, from 1 ton to 40-plus tons. Delivery is priced by ZIP at checkout, and you choose a window: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. The delivery date must be at least 3 business days out. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off a first order. Learn more on our About Gravel Monkey page, read customer reviews, and see full details on delivery information.
Alongside gravel and rock, we supply a full line of bulk materials.
Annual rainfall across the cities we deliver to runs from 48 to 51 inches, so base drainage matters. Freeze-thaw cycles happen on about 115 to 153 days each year. On slow-draining hydrologic group D soil, a thicker base of crusher run or road base is recommended to prevent heaving.
Spring road restrictions can influence routing in some areas. The delivery date is chosen at checkout and must be at least 3 business days after the order date, which gives our haulers time to plan around local limits.
We offer pea gravel (3/8 inch), river rock in various sizes, 2-4 inch river rock, drain rock, decomposed granite, crusher run, and road base. Each suits a different use, from decorative cover to load-bearing base.
Gravel and rock are sold by the ton. Orders range from 1 ton to 40-plus tons. You can use our material calculators to estimate the tonnage for your project area.
