Buy Crushed Stone in Sheridan, Montana

Crushed stone is crushed rock graded into different sizes for construction. You buy it by the ton, not the bag, and Gravel Monkey brings it on a dump truck to your address in Sheridan. Order online, pick a delivery window, and the stone shows up ready to spread.

Sheridan gets about 14 inches of precipitation a year. That means drainage and washout planning matters when you pick a crushed stone size. The right product handles water flow without shifting.

How Sheridan's Climate and Soil Affect Your Crushed Stone Project

Soils mapped in the Sheridan area are commonly well drained. That means less base stone may be needed under the surface layer, but it is only general guidance. Your own soil may differ. The ground around Sheridan is in hydrologic group B, which takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard base depth is usually enough, but check for soft spots.

About 48 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground avoids ruts and compaction problems. Sheridan also sees about 52 inches of snow a year. Plowing damage to a loose surface can be an issue, so plan for a top layer that holds up.

About 193 days a year drop below 32F. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. The freezing is deep and long, so the base layer needs to handle frost heave. Plan the depth of your crushed stone base accordingly.

Estimating How Much Crushed Stone You Need

Crushed stone is bought by the ton, not by the cubic yard. Use our crushed stone calculator to convert length, width and depth to tonnage. Enter the area and the depth you plan to use, and it gives an estimate. Order a little extra to cover compaction and settling.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Stone in Sheridan

Does the soil around Sheridan change how much crushed stone I need?

Yes. Soils mapped in the Sheridan area are commonly well drained, which means you may not need extra base stone. But your own soil could be different. The ground takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depths are usually fine.

How much does crushed stone delivery cost in Sheridan?

Delivery cost is calculated at checkout based on your ZIP code and the tonnage ordered. There is no fixed price for all orders. Use the code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.

How deep should the layer be for a job that carries vehicles?

A 4 to 6 inch compacted base of 3/4" Crushed Stone or 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone works for most driveways. Softer ground may need up to 8 inches. Compact each lift separately.

Does the stone size change how well it compacts?

Yes. Well-graded stone with fines like 3/4" Crushed Stone compacts into a dense layer. Single-size stone like #57 Crushed Stone locks less tightly and leaves more voids, which is good for drainage but not for load bearing.
