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





Walkway gravel is a crushed stone mix that stays in place underfoot and lets rainwater soak through. You buy it here by the ton, order online, and we deliver by dump truck to your address in Weare.
Weare gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year, so a gravel that drains well matters. Walkway gravel does that, which reduces washout and keeps the path firm.
Not every size works for every project. The table below lists the five types we carry and what each is best used for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | All-purpose blend, good for straight runs. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Ideal for barefoot paths and play areas. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Handles light traffic without rutting. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Loose look, less compaction than smaller stone. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Too large for walking, best for visual contrast. |
Match the project to the stone size using the guide below. Depths are suggestions for a stable surface.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Play area surfacing | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches; softer landing than larger stone. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer; stones should sit above the channel. |
| Patio base | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches compacted; base for pavers or stone. |
| Garden path | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 inches; keeps weeds down and feels solid. |
| Side-yard walkway | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches; stays in place on narrow runs. |
Weare has about 165 days a year below freezing. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. Plan to install your walkway during the warmer months when the soil is not frozen.
The area gets about 58 inches of snow annually. Plowing a snow pile onto a loose gravel surface can shift stones, so consider using a larger size near driveways or edges that get pushed. Around 80 days a year bring measurable rain, meaning you want a gravel that drains and does not hold water.
Soils mapped in the Weare area are commonly well drained, which reduces the need for extra base stone. The ground takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depths are usually enough for a stable walkway. Across Hillsborough County, about 427 single-family homes were permitted in 2024, making new walkway projects common.
To estimate tonnage, measure the length and width of your path, decide on depth, and use a volume-to-weight conversion. Walkway gravel weighs roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard. Our material calculators do the math for you and tell you how many tons to order.
You order online by the ton. Enter your Weare ZIP at checkout, and the delivery price appears immediately. Loads range from 1 to 40-plus tons. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 to get $50 off your first order.
Delivery dates must be at least 3 business days after the order. You choose a window: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. After you place the order, you get an email confirmation, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the load. Delivery goes ahead only after you approve that second email. You or someone you nominate must be on site during the window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is tight, the crew unloads as close to the spot as safely possible. If the delivery cannot be completed because of blocked access, hazards, or nobody present, a missed delivery or redelivery fee may apply, and the order is not refunded.

Walkway gravel works best when combined with materials that go under it or alongside it. The list below shows common pairings.
Yes, we deliver walkway gravel to Weare and all of Hillsborough County by the ton. With about 165 freezing days each year, it is wise to schedule delivery during drier, warmer months for the best results. Our trucks cover rural routes as well as in-town addresses.
The smallest load is 1 ton, which covers roughly a 10-foot by 10-foot area at 2 inches deep. Given that Weare gets about 58 inches of snow annually, you might want a slightly larger load if the walkway will double as a winter shovel path.
Yes, we deliver to any address our trucks can access safely. As long as the road is at least 12 feet wide and the site can accommodate a dump truck, we can drop the load. There is no surcharge for rural delivery.
It depends on the project. For paths you walk on daily, 3/8-inch or 3/4-inch sizes are easiest underfoot. For decorative borders or dry creek beds, choose the 2-to-3-inch size. If the walkway sees wheelbarrows or light vehicles, go with 3/4-inch or 1-to-1-1/2-inch gravel.
Whether you are building a garden path or surfacing a side-yard walkway, walkway gravel is a practical choice. Order online from Gravel Monkey in Weare and we will deliver the right material to your door.
