Common Projects and the Right Crushed Stone for Each

Choosing the right crushed stone size for your project prevents problems like drainage failure or uneven settling. The table below shows typical recommendations for common jobs.

How Wiggins Weather and Soil Affect Your Crushed Stone Project

Wiggins gets about 67 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout planning are important. Selecting the right crushed stone size and base depth helps water move away from structures and prevents erosion.

About 80 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is key. You want the truck to unload on a solid, dry surface, not mud. About 32 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, which narrows the work window and can cause the ground to heave if the base is not deep enough. Snowfall is about 0 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern here.

Ground freezing in Wiggins is not a significant factor, so the base layer does not need extra depth for frost protection. Soils mapped in the Wiggins area are commonly well drained, meaning less base stone may be needed under the surface layer as area guidance. The ground around Wiggins takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depth is usually enough. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.

Estimating Your Crushed Stone Quantity

To figure out how many tons you need, measure the area in square feet and multiply by the desired depth in inches. Then divide by 12 to get cubic feet, and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. A cubic yard of crushed stone weighs about 1.4 to 1.6 tons depending on the size and density. Use our crushed stone calculator to get a tonnage estimate for your project.
