Buy Crushed Stone in New Mexico

Crushed stone and crushed gravel are often confused. Both are angular, but the difference is the parent rock and the grading. Crushed stone comes from hard rock like granite or limestone, while crushed gravel is made from rounded river rock.

Gravel Monkey delivers crushed stone across New Mexico by the ton. Order online and we bring it to your address in a dump truck.

New Mexico Climate and Soil Considerations for Crushed Stone

Across the cities we deliver to in New Mexico, annual precipitation runs from about 10 to 18 inches. The number of freezing days varies from about 81 to 189 days a year below 32F. Because most of the state sits in the negligible frost band, ground freezing is not the main concern. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. The dominant soil hydrologic groups C and B mean that a compacted base of 3/4" crushed stone is usually enough for driveways and patios. In wetter areas, a heavier stone like 1"-1 1/2" improves drainage.

If you are working in a part of New Mexico with higher rainfall, consider a larger crushed stone for better water flow. The soil groups also affect compaction, but a standard crushed stone base works for most residential and commercial jobs.

What conditions across New Mexico should change what I order?

In areas with higher rainfall, up to 18 inches annually, use a larger crushed stone such as 1"-1 1/2" for better drainage. In drier areas with less rain, 3/4" crushed stone works well. The dominant soil groups C and B mean that a compacted base is usually sufficient for most projects.
