Buy Crushed Stone in Minnesota

Crushed stone and crushed gravel are both angular, but the difference is the parent rock and the grading. Crushed stone comes from quarried rock, while crushed gravel is made from natural gravel deposits. Gravel Monkey delivers crushed stone across Minnesota by the ton, with dump-truck delivery to the address you provide.

Each load is priced by ZIP at checkout, and you can order from 1 to 40-plus tons. The delivery date is chosen at checkout and must be at least 3 business days after the order date.

Conditions Across Minnesota That Affect Crushed Stone Orders

Across the cities we deliver to in Minnesota, annual precipitation runs from about 27 to 34 inches. Freezing days range from about 161 to 203 days a year below 32F. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. A deeper base of compacted crushed stone resists frost heave better than a thin one.

The most common hydrologic soil groups across served cities are A and C. Group A soils drain well and require less base depth; group C soils hold water, meaning you need a thicker crushed stone base to keep the subgrade stable. The MnDOT spring load-restriction program limits truck weights on certain roads during thaw. That can affect delivery timing, but Gravel Monkey schedules around those restrictions to keep your order moving.

How Much Crushed Stone You Need

Tonnage depends on the area to cover and the depth of the layer. A general rule is that one ton of crushed stone covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. For an accurate estimate for your exact dimensions, use our crushed stone calculator. It accounts for compaction and material loss.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Stone in Minnesota

What conditions across Minnesota should change what I order?

The freeze-thaw cycle is the primary factor. With 161 to 203 freezing days a year and severe ground freezing, you need a thicker compacted base of 3/4" crushed stone to resist heave. In wet areas with hydrologic group C soil, increase the base depth by 2 inches over what you would use on group A soil.

Do seasonal road restrictions in Minnesota affect delivery?

Yes. MnDOT runs a spring load-restriction program that can limit truck weights on certain roads during thaw. Gravel Monkey schedules around those restrictions, so your delivery still reaches you. The delivery window you choose at checkout remains the same.

What sizes of crushed stone are available?

We offer eight sizes: 3/8", 3/4", 1 to 1 1/2", 2 to 3 inches, plus #57, #67, #8 stone, and #10 rock screenings. Each has a specific use from paver bedding to rip rap. The product table above lists all options.
