Crushed stone is sold by the ton at Gravel Monkey. You order online, pick a delivery window, and the truck brings it to your address in Berrien Springs. With about 42 inches of precipitation a year here, drainage and washout planning are critical for any base or surface job. The calculator on our site helps estimate tonnage, and the checkout shows the total delivered price for your ZIP code. This page covers the crushed stone sizes we offer and what each one is best for. The material comes from regional quarries, so product variation is normal. You can order as little as one ton or up to a full truckload. We deliver to residential and commercial sites across the Berrien Springs area.
You choose the size for your job. Not every crushed stone works for every application. The table below shows what each product is for and when it is not suitable.
| Product | For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed and tight fill | Best for compacted layers under pavers; not for heavy traffic bases. |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | All-purpose base and drainage | The standard size for driveways and base layers; avoid for decorative surfaces. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Use for deep fill and under heavy loads; too large for walkways. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Ideal for erosion protection along slopes; not for level bases. |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | A consistent aggregate for concrete and drainage; avoid for compaction under pavers. |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Similar to #57 but with slightly smaller particles; used in concrete and backfill. |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Small enough for joint filling; not for base layers because it lacks fines. |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | A fine material for a smooth surface; not for drainage or load bearing. |

Soils in the Berrien Springs area are commonly well drained and fall into hydrologic group A, which means they absorb water quickly and produce little runoff. This behavior cuts down the amount of drainage stone needed under the surface. The area receives about 42 inches of precipitation annually, so planning for water flow is still necessary even with good drainage.
Berrien Springs sees about 127 days a year with temperatures below freezing. Frost penetrates deep and lasts, so the ground moves as it thaws. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. A thicker crushed stone base helps resist frost heave and keeps the surface level.
