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





Walkway gravel is sold by the ton. A typical residential path or garden walk in New Jersey consumes 1 to 5 tons depending on the area and the depth you want. The smaller the stone, the shallower the bed, so 3/8 inch gravel needs less tonnage than 2 to 3 inch gravel for the same square footage.
Gravel Monkey delivers walkway gravel throughout New Jersey by the ton. We source from regional quarries and truck the material to your address. Pricing is calculated by ZIP at checkout.

Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in New Jersey runs from 47 to 52 inches. Freezing days range from about 77 to 114 days a year below 32F. In areas with more freeze-thaw cycles, a deeper base of 4 to 6 inches of compacted walkway gravel is recommended to prevent shifting.
Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing. Hydrologic groups A/D and A are the most common across the served cities. This means the soil has moderate to high permeability, so a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of walkway gravel is the standard guidance. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.

Measure the length and width of your walkway in feet, multiply to get square footage, then multiply by the depth in feet to get cubic feet. Divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 tons per cubic yard, but the actual number varies by stone size and moisture content. Use our material calculators to get a more precise estimate.
