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





Spring and early summer are the typical season for new gravel work in Clinton, though delivery can be scheduled year-round. Clinton gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so you want to place your crushed gravel order when the ground is firm enough to support the truck and the new base.
Sampson County permitted about 189 single-family homes in 2024, and many of those jobs call for a gravel base or access road. Whatever your project, Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel by the dump truck to your address anywhere in Clinton.
The 3/4" crushed gravel is the most common size for base layers and driveways in this area, but each job calls for a specific product. Use this table to match the material to your project.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer on top of larger stone | Works as a binder for a smooth surface under pavers or walks. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Base for driveways and shed pads | The workhorse size for compacted base and general drainage. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy truck or equipment loads | Size suited for farm lanes and commercial approaches. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Large aggregate that bridges weak spots before surface stone. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill in wet areas | Open structure that allows water to pass while providing stability. |
For most residential and farm projects in Clinton, the right depth and product choice determine how well the gravel performs. The table below gives a starting point for five common uses.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Farm and site access road | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel as base, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel as topping | 6 to 8 inches of base, 2 to 3 inches of surface |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compact in 6-inch lifts |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel as first lift, then 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Start with 4 to 6 inches of large stone to stabilize |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches compacted, check local soil conditions |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Thickness depends on load, typically 4 to 8 inches |
Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. Clinton has about 78 wet days a year, which means you need to pick a delivery window when the site is firm enough to handle the dump truck and the gravel.
About 63 days a year drop below freezing, which can cause the ground to shift slightly as it thaws. A well-compacted crushed gravel base handles that movement without surfacing problems. The soils mapped in the Clinton area are commonly well drained, so the base layer does not need extra thickness to fight standing water.
Ground around Clinton is in hydrologic group A, which means it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. That behavior reduces the amount of drainage stone needed under the surface layer. Snowfall averages about 2 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose gravel surface is rarely a concern.

Crushed gravel is angular and compacts firmly, so it is not a good choice for loose decorative surfaces where rounded gravel is desired. It can also be too sharp for use as playground cover without a top layer.
