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





Contractors and homeowners buy walkway gravel for different reasons. A contractor wants a clean, compactable base that works under foot traffic. A homeowner often just wants a surface that stays where it is put.
Moriarty gets about 15 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning matters even with a light aggregate. A washout under a path means rework, not just a puddle.
Walkway gravel comes in several sizes, each suited to a different kind of path or edge work. Pick the size that matches your surface and the traffic it will see.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | The standard blend for most residential walkways. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Good for barefoot paths and tight curves. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Holds up under light equipment and cart traffic. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Open texture that drains fast in low-use spots. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Large pieces that stay visible and anchor the edge. |
Each project type needs a different size and depth. The table below matches the problem to the product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Side-yard walkway | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches compacted over a base layer |
| Play area surfacing | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches for cushion and fall height |
| Garden path | Walkway Gravel | 2 inches, topped with binder if needed |
| Patio base | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted before pavers |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer, not compacted |
Moriarty sees about 33 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling a delivery onto firm ground means avoiding those days or waiting for the soil to drain.
About 166 days a year drop below freezing. That cold shrinks the work window and makes the ground shift as it freezes and thaws. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
The ground around Moriarty takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer under the walkway gravel earns its place here, especially if the path sits on flat ground.
Volume depends on the area and the depth you choose. Use the material calculators on the site to estimate tons based on your measurements. The calculator accounts for compaction and waste, so you order the right amount the first time.

Yes. About 166 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and that frost penetrates enough to shift an unprepared base. Order and install well before the first hard freeze so you can compact the gravel into stable ground.
Moriarty has about 33 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Schedule the delivery for a stretch of dry weather so the truck can reach the drop spot and the ground is firm enough to support the load.
Use steel or plastic edging driven into the ground along the sides of the path. The edging holds the gravel in place and keeps it from migrating into lawn or planting beds.
Landscape fabric is not required, but it helps suppress weeds and keeps the gravel from mixing with the soil below. If you install fabric, use a woven type that drains water and allows the gravel to lock together on top.
