Gravel & Rock ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Nevis address and unloads right where you point.







Nevis gets about 27 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel or rock surface you lay down. Choosing the right size and type from the start saves rework.
The products below cover everything from a compacting base to a decorative top layer. Each one works best in a specific role, and the table shows what each is for.
Crusher Run is the most-ordered product for a reason: it compacts into a stable base. The rest of the list serves as alternatives for surface work, drainage, or decorative cover.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth underfoot. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Natural color variation, good for weed suppression. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Heavier pieces stay put on slopes. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular rock moves water fast. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Stable surface with a natural look. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | The go-to layer for load support. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Engineered for heavy traffic. |
The table below pairs five common projects with the recommended product and a typical depth. Use it as a starting point for ordering by the ton.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Dry creek bed | River Rock | Four to six inches over landscape fabric. |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | Six to eight inches for heavy flow areas. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | Four inches compacted over a crusher run base. |
| Landscape beds | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Two to three inches for a clean finish. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Three-quarter-inch clean stone, twelve inches wide. |
Soils mapped in the Nevis area are commonly somewhat excessively drained, meaning they shed water quickly. The ground around Nevis is in hydrologic group A, which soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. As area guidance, this means you may need less drainage stone under the surface layer than in heavier soils, but the exact amount depends on your site.
About 186 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That long freeze season drives ground movement, which makes the depth of your base layer important. About 48 inches of snowfall a year means plowing can disturb a loose surface, so a compacted top layer or larger rock helps. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.
About 58 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is easier when you avoid those days.

Gravel and rock pair well with these other bulk materials for a complete project:
Yes. With about 27 inches of precipitation a year, drainage is worth planning for. Using drain rock in a trench or a larger river rock on a slope helps manage water and reduces washout risk.
Yes. About 186 days a year are below freezing, so the ground moves more than in milder climates. A compacted base of crusher run at sufficient depth helps keep the surface level through freeze-thaw cycles.
