Kirksville Weather and Soil Affect Your Driveway Gravel

About 130 days a year drop below 32F in Kirksville. That many freeze-thaw cycles can heave a poorly built driveway, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, so a deeper base of larger stone helps prevent shifting.

The area gets about 19 inches of snow a year. Plowing a loose gravel surface can displace the top stone, so use a well-graded product like 3/4-inch that locks together and holds under a blade.

Soils mapped in the Kirksville area are commonly somewhat poorly drained. The ground around Kirksville takes water in very slowly because it is in hydrologic group D, meaning most rain runs across the surface. That makes drainage and a deeper base layer more important than in other places. Plan for extra base stone under the surface layer to keep water from pooling in your driveway.

Frequently Asked Questions About Driveway Gravel in Kirksville

Does the ground in Kirksville freeze hard enough to change when I should order?

Yes. Kirksville has about 130 days a year below 32F, and the ground freezing here is deep and long. Order and place your driveway gravel during a dry period when the ground is not frozen to get proper compaction. A thawed base prevents shifting later.

How many wet days a year should I plan a driveway gravel delivery around in Kirksville?

About 69 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Schedule delivery onto firm, dry ground. Wet soil can rut under the dump truck, so avoid delivery after heavy rain.

Can a contractor order on behalf of a customer?

Yes. The contractor can place the order, but the customer or a nominated person must be present during the delivery window. If no one is there, a missed delivery fee may apply.

Do you take orders from businesses as well as homeowners?

Yes. Gravel Monkey accepts orders from both homeowners and businesses. Select the appropriate account type at checkout.
