Buy Driveway Gravel in Minnesota

If you are resurfacing a driveway or building a new one, you need a base layer that compacts well and a top layer that stays in place. Driveway Gravel works for the finish, while 3/4" Driveway Gravel is the standard size that locks together.

Gravel Monkey delivers driveway gravel by the ton to your address across Minnesota. You choose the delivery window and the truck brings the load.

Matching Driveway Gravel to Your Project in Minnesota

Choosing the right gravel depends on whether you need a quick fix or a lasting surface. The larger sizes cost less per ton but require a thicker layer, while the smaller sizes pack tight and last longer.

Minnesota Conditions That Affect Driveway Gravel

Across the cities we deliver to in Minnesota, annual precipitation runs from about 27 to 34 inches, and below-freezing temperatures occur on 161 to 203 days a year, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. These conditions mean that proper base depth is essential to prevent frost heave. The most common soil groups across the served cities are hydrologic groups A and C, which influence how water drains through the base. A deeper gravel layer is often needed to maintain stability on slower-draining soils.

MnDOT runs a spring load-restriction program that can limit truck weights on certain roads during thaw. This may affect delivery routing and timing, so it is something to consider when ordering. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.

Frequently Asked Questions About Driveway Gravel in Minnesota

Do seasonal road restrictions in Minnesota affect delivery?

Yes, MnDOT runs a spring load-restriction program that can limit truck weights on certain roads. This may affect delivery routing and timing. Gravel Monkey coordinates with haulers to minimize any impact on your schedule.

What conditions across Minnesota should change what I order?

The severe frost band and soil groups A and C across the served cities mean that base depth is critical. Areas with higher rainfall, between 27 and 34 inches annually, may need a thicker gravel layer to prevent washout. Choose a deeper base product if your soil is slow draining.

Is there a first-order discount?

Yes, use the code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to get $50 off your first order. It applies to qualifying orders. The code can be used once per customer.

How is driveway gravel measured and sold?
