Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your High Ridge address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed gravel projects in High Ridge tend to run from a few tons for a small pad up to 20 or 30 tons for a driveway or parking area. High Ridge gets about 44 inches of precipitation a year, which means planning for good drainage under any load-bearing surface.
Gravel Monkey ships bulk crushed gravel by the ton to residential and commercial sites across High Ridge and Jefferson County. You order online, choose your delivery window, and a dump truck brings the material to your address.
Each crushed gravel size serves a different layer in the build. Pick the one that matches the job.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works as a top dressing or under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Most common for residential driveways and sheds. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good for farm lanes and heavy truck access. |

| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|

Soils mapped in the High Ridge area are commonly moderately well drained. That means an extra layer of base stone under the crushed gravel surface layer is often a good idea. About 72 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters.
Ground around High Ridge is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place on sites with noticeable runoff. About 10 inches of snowfall a year means plowing can push a loose surface around, so compaction and a stable base reduce maintenance.
About 105 days a year drop below 32F. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Frost depth is moderate, which affects how deep the base layer needs to be for structures.

Yes. Soils mapped in the High Ridge area are commonly moderately well drained, which can affect how thick your base layer should be. If water drains slowly, a deeper base of crushed gravel helps keep the surface stable. Use the local conditions to plan extra depth.
Spring and fall are typical because the ground is firm and the weather is moderate. About 105 days a year drop below 32F, so winter work may face frozen ground. Order at least 3 business days ahead to get your chosen window.
