Which Crushed Gravel to Use for Common Jobs

Match the material to the problem. Here is a guide for five typical uses around Arnold.

Arnold's Climate and Soil Affects Your Crushed Gravel Job

Arnold gets about 73 wet days a year when at least a tenth of an inch falls. That many wet days means you need to schedule the delivery onto firm ground, and you should plan for runoff after the material is placed. About 98 days a year drop below 32F, which shortens the work window in winter and can heave an unsettled base. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Snowfall averages about 9 inches a year, and plowing can damage a loose surface if the gravel is not compacted well.

Soils mapped in the Arnold area are commonly moderately well drained, but that is a general guide. The ground around Arnold is in dual hydrologic group B/D, meaning where the soil is well drained it takes water at a moderate rate, and where it is not drained it takes water very slowly and most rain runs across the surface. Because drainage varies so much, the base layer depth matters more here than in other areas. Frost depth is moderate, but the base needs to be deep enough to stay stable through freeze-thaw cycles.

How Much Crushed Gravel You Need for Your Arnold Project

To estimate your tonnage, measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area you want to cover. A ton of crushed gravel takes up roughly 15 to 18 cubic feet depending on the size. Use one of Gravel Monkey's material calculators to get a precise number before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Gravel in Arnold

How much does crushed gravel delivery cost in Arnold?

Delivery cost in Arnold depends on your ZIP code and the tonnage you order. Because Arnold gets about 44 inches of precipitation a year, you may need a thicker base layer for drainage, which increases the amount of crushed gravel you need. The price per ton and delivery fee are calculated at checkout.

Does the soil around Arnold change how much crushed gravel I need?

Soils mapped in the Arnold area are commonly moderately well drained, so you may need less base stone in well-drained spots. But the B/D hydrologic group means drainage varies widely. You should plan for more base material in areas that stay wet.

Do you take orders from businesses as well as homeowners?

How is crushed gravel measured and sold?
