Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Missouri address and unloads right where you point.
Many buyers reach for rounded gravel first. That is a mistake for any load-bearing surface. Crushed gravel has angular edges that lock together, creating a stable base that does not shift under traffic.
Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel across Missouri by the ton. The truck brings it straight to your address, and you choose the size that fits your project.
For a base layer you want a larger crushed gravel that bridges soft spots and drains well. For a finished surface a smaller size compacts into a tight, hard-wearing crust.
| Size | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Creates a smooth, dense surface for walkways or under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Pairs strength with good drainage; the most common base choice. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used beneath parking areas or equipment pads that carry trucks. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a bridging layer that does not sink into weak soil. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Ideal for low areas, access roads, and stabilizing wet ground. |
For a given project you can pick a product that works for light use or step up to one built for heavy traffic. The table compares the options.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Compacted base for a shed or pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compact in lifts for a firm, level foundation. |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Use as the first lift to bridge the weak soil. |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Drains well and settles minimally when compacted. |
| Farm and site access road | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Heavy stone resists rutting and controls mud. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Compacts to a smooth, stable surface for the slab. |
Across the cities Gravel Monkey serves in Missouri, annual precipitation runs from 42 to 48 inches. That much rain means any base needs enough depth to stay above the water table and to shed water laterally. Winters in Missouri bring 95 to 117 days below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on location. Freeze-thaw cycles can lift a poorly compacted base. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Most of the state's served cities have hydrologic soil groups C and D, which drain slowly. That sends more water into the gravel layer, so your base depth needs to be generous enough to keep the surface dry and stable. A properly engineered crushed gravel base handles these conditions well.

Missouri experiences 95 to 117 freezing days per year, which can lead to spring thaw weight restrictions on local roads. Gravel Monkey monitors these conditions and works with you to choose a delivery date that avoids road bans. Your delivery window is coordinated to match local regulations.
Annual rainfall across our served cities runs from 42 to 48 inches, and soils in hydrologic groups C and D drain slowly. That means a thicker crushed gravel base may be needed to keep water from softening the surface. Factor in the local drainage when planning your depth.
