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







What drives the final delivered number is simple: the tonnage you need, the distance the truck travels, and the material itself. Cassville sees about 48 inches of precipitation each year, so drainage considerations matter for any gravel surface you plan to install.
Ordering by the ton means you only pay for what the truck can carry, and you pick the day. Gravel Monkey handles the rest.
The right gravel and rock for your Cassville project depends on drainage, traffic, and appearance. Here is what each product is best for and what to watch out for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth, but does not lock together under load. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Decorative, but does not compact well for walking surfaces. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Heavy enough to stay in place on slopes. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Angular and open-graded so water moves through quickly. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Packs into a hard surface but requires a stable base. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Contains fines for a dense, stable layer. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Designed for heavy loads and repeated traffic. |
The table below matches a project type with the most suitable material from our stock. Depth suggestions are general; adjust for your specific site conditions.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches, use larger rock on steeper slopes. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | 12 to 18 inches around the pipe, wrapped in fabric. |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches deep over weed barrier. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 3 to 4 inches compacted over a base of crusher run. |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock | 3 to 5 inches, mix sizes for a natural look. |
Barry County permitted about 35 new single-family homes in 2024, and many of those lots sit on the well-drained soils common around Cassville. Soils mapped in the Cassville area are commonly well drained, which means less base stone is needed under the surface layer than on heavy clay.
The ground around Cassville is in hydrologic group B, which means it takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard base depth is usually enough for most projects. But with about 110 days per year below freezing, frost heave is a real concern. A properly compacted base of crusher run or road base helps keep your driveway or path level through spring thaws. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.
Cassville gets about 7 inches of snowfall a year. Snowplowing can damage a loose gravel surface, so consider a compacted top layer like decomposed granite for areas that will be plowed.
To estimate how much gravel or rock you need, measure the area and depth you plan to cover. Use our material calculators to convert square footage into tons for your specific project.

Yes. Cassville gets about 48 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage is a primary factor. Choose open-graded materials like drain rock or river rock for surfaces that need to shed water quickly.
Yes. With about 110 days below freezing each year, frost heave is a real concern. A well-compacted base of crusher run or road base, placed at a depth that accounts for local frost penetration, helps prevent shifting.
Depth depends on use. For a driveway, 4 to 6 inches of base stone plus a 2 inch surface layer is typical. For a path, 3 to 4 inches total may be enough. Use our material calculators to estimate tonnage for your chosen depth.
The main differences are particle size and shape. Pea gravel is small and smooth, while crusher run includes fines for compaction. River rock comes in larger, rounded shapes for decorative use, and drain rock is angular for water flow.
