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





Walkway gravel pricing reflects more than the stone itself. The delivered cost depends on the size you choose, the quantity, and how far the truck must travel from the regional supplier. Carriere gets about 65 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning is part of the material decision.
The right product prevents ruts, washouts, and frequent topping off. Knowing the job's traffic and drainage needs narrows the choice quickly.
Not every walkway gravel fits every path or patio. Some are better for foot traffic, others for decorative edges or wheelbarrow use. Compare the options and their limits below.
| Product | Best for | Limitation to note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | Not suited for steep slopes; it can shift under heavy rain. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Tracks more easily than larger stone; needs edging to stay put. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Not ideal for bare feet; stone edges are slightly sharper. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Too uneven for patio bases; requires a compacted subbase. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Uncomfortable to walk on; meant for visual structure, not traffic. |
Matching the gravel size to the intended use saves time and money. The table below pairs common projects with the recommended product and a key installation note.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Side-yard walkway | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches deep; pack with a plate compactor for firm footing. |
| Patio base | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 3 inches compacted; needs a weed barrier below to prevent growth. |
| Play area surfacing | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | 4 inches loose; avoid sharp sizes if children use the area. |
| Garden path | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 2 inches over landscape fabric; easier to walk on than larger stone. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer for visual effect; no compaction needed. |
Carriere averages about 78 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters because a wet driveway can rut under the weight of a loaded dump truck. About 28 days a year drop below freezing, meaning occasional freeze-thaw cycles that can shift an unbound surface if the base is too shallow.
Soils mapped in the Carriere area are commonly well drained. That reduces the amount of base stone needed under the walkway gravel because water moves through the ground rather than pooling. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part. Snowfall is negligible at roughly 0 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern.
Tonnage depends on the square footage and the chosen depth. A simple formula is length times width times depth, then convert cubic feet to tons using the material's density. Gravel Monkey offers material calculators on the website that do the math for any size and product.

Choose a size based on traffic and appearance. For a front path that gets daily walking, 3/8" or 3/4" walkway gravel is comfortable underfoot. For decorative borders or dry creek beds, 2"-3" walkway gravel provides a bold look. For patio bases, 3/4" or 1"-1 1/2" works best when compacted.
