Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Stone Ridge address and unloads right where you point.
You mark the spot, and a dump truck carries the load to your address. Stone Ridge gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you choose a base material. Crushed gravel locks together under compaction and holds up better than rounded stone on wet ground.
Order online by the ton, pick a delivery date that is at least 3 business days out, and choose a morning or afternoon window. The driver positions the truck where you want the drop.
Crushed gravel splits into two groups: surface layers and base layers. The finer sizes compact into a tight, walkable finish. The coarser sizes handle load-bearing and drainage. Here are the products we deliver to Stone Ridge.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works as a top dressing for paths and patios. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Balances compaction and drainage for most jobs. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used below slabs and retaining walls. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soil before a finer layer goes on. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Large voids let water pass and spread the load. |
A budget approach uses a single layer of 3/4" crushed gravel over prepared ground. That works for light use. A long-term option builds with a coarser base lift and a finer surface. Here is how to match the product to the project.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel then 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 6 inches of coarse, then 4 inches of finer |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Depth depends on pipe size and soil |
| Shed or slab pad | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel then 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches total, compacted |
| Farm and site access road | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel then 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift of 8 to 12 inches, then 4 inches |
The ground around Stone Ridge freezes deep and stays cold long. About 147 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze cycle lifts and shifts an unstable base, which is why getting the base layer right matters more here than the surface layer. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. A base that is too thin or made of the wrong size will heave and settle unevenly.
Stone Ridge also gets about 86 inches of snow a year. Plowing a scattered gravel surface pushes material aside, so a well-compacted top layer helps keep the driveway intact. The area's soils are commonly excessively drained, meaning water moves through quickly. That reduces the need for extra drainage stone under the surface, but it also means the base needs enough thickness to stay stable when the ground thaws.
The ground around Stone Ridge belongs to hydrologic group A, which soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. That behavior means less drainage stone is needed under the surface because the soil already drains fast. But it also means a thin gravel layer can shift if water builds up in the subgrade during spring melt.
Measure the length and width of the area, then pick a depth based on the project. Multiply length by width by depth to get cubic feet, then convert to tons using our material calculators. They take the math out of ordering by the ton.
We are a national aggregate broker. There is no yard in Stone Ridge to visit. You order online by the ton, and we source the crushed gravel from a regional supplier. Delivery is priced by ZIP at checkout, and free delivery applies on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.
You choose a delivery window: morning 7 am to 12 pm or afternoon 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required to confirm. You get an email confirmation, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. Someone must be at the site during the window.

Yes. Soils mapped in the Stone Ridge area are commonly excessively drained, so water moves through quickly. That means you need less drainage stone under the surface, but you still need enough base thickness to handle freeze-thaw. The soil also belongs to hydrologic group A, which soaks water quickly and produces little runoff, so extra drainage stone is rarely needed.
Delivery timing can move for product availability, traffic or weather. About 147 days a year drop below 32F, and the area gets about 86 inches of snow. Plowing and frozen ground can delay access. The delivery window you choose at checkout must be at least 3 business days after the order date.
The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close to the requested spot as they safely can. The driver will not go onto soft or unimproved ground that could cause a stuck truck.
Depth depends on the use: 4 to 6 inches for a driveway base, deeper for soft subgrade. Use our material calculators to convert depth to tons. If you are unsure, start with the coarser lift and add a surface layer later.
You choose the size, pick a delivery window, and the truck shows up. No yard visit, no waiting in line. Order crushed gravel online and have it delivered to your site in Stone Ridge. For more information, visit the Stone Ridge hub.
