Crushed Gravel we deliver in Yerington
Crushed Gravel in Yerington
Crushed gravel in Yerington comes in multiple sizes, from fine 3/8-inch material to large 2-to-3-inch stone. The size you choose sets the load-bearing capacity and the surface look for your project.
Yerington gets about 6 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you select a crushed gravel layer. Use our material calculators to match the size to your project.
Crushed Gravel Sizes Available in Yerington
3/4-inch crushed gravel is the most-ordered size for general base and driveway work. It compacts well and works under almost any surface. The table below lists every size we deliver to Yerington and what each one is best for.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Used as a final wear surface for paths and small pads. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts firmly into a stable, load-bearing layer. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Ideal under concrete, asphalt, or large equipment areas. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a bridging layer that spreads weight over unstable ground. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Large stone that stays in place on soft, wet sites. |
Which Crushed Gravel to Use for Common Projects in Yerington
Match the product to the job. The table below shows our typical recommendations for five frequent applications. Depth is a starting point; adjust based on subgrade conditions.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches compacted over firm subgrade. |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches as a bridging lift. |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" or 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 12 inches compacted in lifts. |
| Farm and site access road | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 inches compacted with a surface of 3/4" if needed. |
Local Conditions and Their Effect on Your Crushed Gravel Project in Yerington
About 154 days a year drop below 32F in Yerington. That ground freezing and thawing cycle can heave an unstable base. A deeper compacted layer of crushed gravel resists frost movement better than a thin one.
Snowfall averages about 3 inches a year. Plowing that snow can scar a loose surface, so a well-compacted top layer of 3/8-inch or 3/4-inch crushed gravel holds up better under a blade. Soils mapped in the Yerington area are commonly well drained, which means you need less base stone under the surface layer than in heavy-clay country.
Ground around Yerington is in hydrologic group A, meaning it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. That reduces the amount of drainage stone required beneath your crushed gravel layer. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift when building over frost-susceptible subgrade.
Estimating How Much Crushed Gravel You Need
Measure the length and width of the area in feet, multiply by the depth in inches, then divide by 12 to get cubic feet. A ton of crushed gravel covers roughly 80 to 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. For a precise figure, use our material calculators.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Gravel in Yerington
What is the smallest load of crushed gravel you deliver to Yerington?
The smallest load we deliver is 1 ton. With only about 14 days a year that bring measurable rain in Yerington, you can schedule a 1-ton delivery onto firm ground on almost any day.
When is the best time of year to order crushed gravel in Yerington?
Late spring through early fall is best because the ground is firm and dry. Yerington gets about 6 inches of precipitation a year, so rain rarely delays the job, but freeze-thaw cycles in winter can soften the subgrade.
Can a contractor order on behalf of a customer?
Yes, a contractor can place the order and provide the delivery address and contact information. The person at the site during delivery must be named in the order and must approve the load photo before the truck departs.
What is this material not suitable for?
Crushed gravel is not suitable for decorative pathways where a rounded, uniform look is wanted. It is also not the best choice for a clean, dust-free indoor floor or for playground surfacing without a top layer of softer material.
