Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Kirksville address and unloads right where you point.
A typical crushed gravel project in Kirksville calls for 3 to 10 tons. Kirksville gets about 42 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter from the start. A load that size covers a driveway apron or a shed pad with room to spare.
The right depth and the right size keep the surface stable through wet seasons. Delivery by the ton lets you order exactly what your plan needs, down to the quarter ton.
The sizes range from a fine compacting layer up to deep fill. Choose by the load your project will carry and the condition of the ground.
| Product | Best used for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Forms a smooth, tight surface for pathways and under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Handles car traffic and stays stable with proper compaction. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Recommended where trucks or equipment will cross regularly. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Starts the build on ground that cannot support a thin layer. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Bridges soft spots and adds stability where the ground gives. |
The table below matches the problem you are solving to the right size.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 12 inches as a bridging layer |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted |
| Compacted base | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches, then a surface layer |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compacts well and allows drainage |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches after the base layer |
Kirksville has about 130 freezing days a year, which shortens the work window for base work. The ground moves each freeze-thaw cycle, so a deep, well-compacted base pays off. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.
The area gets around 19 inches of snowfall annually, and plowing can loosen a surface that is not fully compacted. Soils mapped in the Kirksville area are commonly somewhat poorly drained, which means the base layer may need more stone underneath than a well-drained site would. The ground around Kirksville is in hydrologic group D, so most rain runs across the surface rather than soaking in. That raises the stakes for drainage and a deeper base.
Frost penetration here is deep and long. That depth directly affects how thick the base layer needs to be to stay stable through winter. These factors make crushed gravel a strong choice because it locks together and drains.
Coverage depends on the depth you choose and the area of the pad or drive. Use Gravel Monkey's material calculators to find the tonnage for your measurements. Enter the length, width and depth, and the calculator gives you the total tons.
You order online by the ton, and the delivery price is calculated by your ZIP at checkout. A dump truck brings the load to your address. Loads range from 1 ton up to 40 tons or more, and free delivery is available on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.
Delivery windows are chosen at checkout: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. You receive an email confirmation when the order is placed, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. You must be available during the window, or have someone at the site. If the delivery cannot be completed, a missed delivery fee may apply. Cancellations more than 24 hours after the order carry a 25 percent processing fee; orders cancelled within 48 hours of the scheduled date are not refundable. Once you approve the second confirmation, the order cannot be cancelled. Inspect the load within 48 hours and photograph any issues. Claims need photos and must be raised within that window. Gravel Monkey corrects wrong material, wrong delivery location, or quality outside industry norms. It does not cover site access problems, weather changes, or natural variation in color or shape. The haulers take care, but Gravel Monkey is not responsible for damage to driveways or landscaping, confirming the property can take a heavy truck is your responsibility. Gravel Monkey is a national aggregate broker, so the exact product, size and color can vary by region. Product photos are a general reference.

Delivery cost is calculated by your ZIP code at checkout. Kirksville gets about 130 freezing days per year, which can affect scheduling and base depth, but the price stays tied to your location and the tonnage you order. There are no fixed local rates; your quote appears when you enter your ZIP.
Yes. Soils mapped in the Kirksville area are commonly somewhat poorly drained, and the ground is in hydrologic group D, meaning most rain runs across the surface. That combination often means a deeper base layer than a well-drained site would need. The frost depth here is also deep and long, so the base must be thick enough to stay stable through winter.
Orders must be placed at least 3 business days before the delivery date. The delivery date is chosen at checkout, and you pick a window. Ordering a week or more ahead gives more flexibility on dates.
The sizes range from 3/8 inch up to 2-3 inches. Smaller sizes like 3/8 inch compact to a smooth surface for pathways. Larger sizes like 1-1.5 inch and 2-3 inch provide structural strength under heavy loads or over soft ground. The 3/4 inch size is the general workhorse for bases and driveways.
