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





Montana's freeze-thaw cycle puts ground movement at the top of every contractor's planning list. Across the cities Gravel Monkey serves, annual precipitation runs from about 13 to 25 inches, and freezing days range from about 158 to 215 a year. That combination means a walkway needs stone that drains well and stays put when the ground shifts.
Gravel Monkey delivers walkway gravel by the ton to addresses across Montana. You order online, choose your delivery window, and a dump truck brings the load to your site. Priced by ZIP at checkout, with loads from 1 to 40-plus tons.
The most-ordered option for general path and walkway surfacing is Walkway Gravel. For finer, more even walking surfaces, consider these alternatives.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | general path and walkway surfacing | Versatile blend that compacts well for most uses. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | small, even, easy to walk on | Ideal for barefoot paths and light foot traffic areas. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Holds up under tool carts and occasional loads. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | informal paths and side yards | Open structure lets water pass through quickly. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | decorative edging and dry creek borders | Large pieces stay in place without edge restraints. |

Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. The dominant soil groups across served cities are hydrologic B and C, which drain moderately well but require adequate base depth to stay stable through thaw cycles. Thaw softens the ground for a stretch each spring, which is when a thin layer shifts underfoot.
Montana's Department of Transportation runs a spring load-restriction program each year. Roads on the restricted network have weight limits during the thaw period, which can affect delivery timing. Check local MDT bulletins when planning your order.
Across the cities we deliver to in Montana, the freeze season lasts roughly 158 to 215 days below 32F. A walkway built with enough stone depth and proper drainage will handle freeze-thaw better than a shallow base.

Walkway gravel is sold by the ton. Estimate the volume by measuring the length, width, and desired depth of your path, then use our material calculators to convert cubic feet to tons. A typical garden path 3 feet wide by 20 feet long with a 3-inch depth needs about 1.5 tons.
