Why Gladwin's Climate and Soil Matter for Your Crushed Stone Job

Gladwin gets about 34 inches of precipitation a year. That means drainage and washout planning should guide your choice of crushed stone size and base depth. With about 73 wet days a year, scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters.

About 169 days a year drop below freezing. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. The deep and long ground freezing here means you need a thicker base under any surface that carries traffic.

Soils mapped in the Gladwin area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. The ground around Gladwin is in dual hydrologic group A/D; where drained it soaks water quickly, where not it takes water slowly and most rain runs off. That makes drainage and a deeper base more important here than elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Stone in Gladwin

Does the soil around Gladwin change how much crushed stone I need?

Yes. Soils mapped in the Gladwin area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. That means you may need a thicker base of crushed stone to manage drainage and prevent shifting. The hydrologic group A/D indicates the soil behavior depends on whether it is drained or not.

How much does crushed stone delivery cost in Gladwin?

Delivery cost is determined by your ZIP code and load size at checkout. Gravel Monkey prices delivery by ZIP, not by weight alone. First orders receive $50 off with code FIRSTTIMER50.

What is the difference between the sizes of crushed stone you stock?

The sizes range from fine screenings like #10 up to 2 to 3 inch rip rap. Each size serves a different purpose, from leveling courses to heavy base layers. Larger stones let water pass through freely, while smaller stones compact more tightly.

How deep should the layer be for a job that carries vehicles?

The depth depends on the soil and the weight of the vehicles. In Gladwin, where the ground freezes deep and long, the base should be thicker than in warmer areas. Use the crushed stone calculator to determine the exact tonnage for your area.
