Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Colebrook address and unloads right where you point.
Most crushed gravel work around Colebrook happens during the short warm season, because about 197 days a year drop below freezing. That limits when you can spread, compact, and get a lasting result. Planning ahead gives you the best window.
Whether you are building a driveway, a pad, or a farm access road, starting with the right crushed gravel size and depth keeps the surface stable through freeze-thaw cycles and wet weather.
The most ordered size for general use is 3/4" crushed gravel. It works for driveways, base layers, and compacted fills. The table below lists all the crushed gravel sizes available, with what each is best for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Used as a final wearing surface or under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts well and handles light to moderate traffic. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Common under concrete or asphalt and for commercial sites. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a bridging layer where the ground is weak. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Used in wet areas and for large excavation backfill. |
Match the project to the product and a typical depth. The table below gives five common projects and what to order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel as a first lift, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel on top | Start with 6 to 8 inches of the larger stone, then 4 inches of 3/4". |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted, depending on traffic. |
| Trench backfill | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Place and compact in 6-to-8-inch lifts. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches on stable ground, 6 inches if drainage is a concern. |
| Compacted base | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Used under a final wearing layer of 3/4" or 3/8". |
Colebrook gets about 43 inches of precipitation a year. That means runoff and drainage matter. The ground around here is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer of crushed gravel earns its place under driveways and pads.
Snowfall runs about 111 inches a year. Plowing can gouge a loose surface, so a compacted crushed gravel base with a well-graded top layer resists damage better than a thin topping.
Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. Soils mapped in the Colebrook area are commonly moderately well drained. That means your base stone depth should account for slower water movement through the subgrade. This is area guidance, not a test of your own soil.
