Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Minnesota address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed gravel is crushed, angular rock that locks together under compaction. It makes a stable base for driveways, access roads, and building pads. You order it by the ton, and a dump truck delivers it to your address.
Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel across Minnesota. You choose the size and the tonnage, from 1 to 40-plus tons. The price comes from your ZIP code at checkout, and you pick a delivery window.
Each crushed gravel size suits a different job. The table below matches each product to its best use and includes a note on where it fits.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works well as a top dressing under pavers or as a bedding layer. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Versatile size for most gravel roads and parking areas. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Designed for commercial or farm applications with repeated heavy traffic. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Builds a foundation on ground that cannot support smaller stone. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Used in wet spots or as a first layer in deep excavations. |
Match your project to the right crushed gravel size. These five common applications cover most needs across the state.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|

| Trench backfill | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Compacted in lifts |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches |
Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in Minnesota runs from 27 to 34 inches. That moisture and the freeze-thaw cycle mean the base layer must handle water and movement. Freezing days range from 161 to 203 days a year below 32F, depending on location.
Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. The most common soil groups are A and C. That combination calls for a thicker base to prevent shifting.
Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. MnDOT runs a spring load-restriction program to protect roads during thaw. Deliveries are scheduled around those restrictions.
