Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Lewisville address and unloads right where you point.
If you need a stable base for a driveway, shed pad, or access road, crushed gravel is the material to start with. The 3/4" crushed gravel works well for general compaction, while the 3/8" size gives a finer finish for the top layer. Lewisville gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel job.
Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel by the ton straight to your address. You choose the size that fits the job and pick a delivery day that works for you.
The sizes break into two groups: smaller grades that compact into a smooth surface and larger grades that provide structural support or handle soft ground. The table below lists every crushed gravel size available for delivery.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Creates a tight, nearly dust-free surface for walkways and top dressing. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts well and handles passenger vehicles without rutting. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used beneath concrete or asphalt for commercial-grade support. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soils and spreads loads before finer gravel goes on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Largest size for boggy areas or filling deep holes. |
For a short-term fix, a single layer of 3/4" crushed gravel can get by. For a long-term surface, you want a thicker build with a base of larger stone and a compacted top. The table below shows what to order for common jobs.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Trench backfill | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Fill in lifts of 6 to 8 inches |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches minimum, compacted |
| Farm and site access road | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches over geotextile on soft soil |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 12 inches as a bridging layer |
The ground around Lewisville falls into hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place under any gravel surface that needs to stay firm year-round. About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground makes the work easier.
Freezing days number about 98 a year below 32F, which narrows the work window and pushes the ground slightly when moisture freezes. Snowfall is light at about 4 inches a year, but plowing damage can loosen a gravel surface if the blade catches. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is. Ground freezing does not reach deep enough to require a thicker base.
For any project that needs to hold up to Lewisville's rainfall and freeze-thaw cycles, the base layer should be sized and compacted with drainage in mind. Proper slope and a 4 to 6 inch lift of 1 1/2" stone under the finish grade helps water move away from the surface.
Tonnage depends on the area, the depth of the lift, and the compaction factor of the stone. Use our material calculators to get a rough number before you place the order. Just enter the length, width, and depth, and the tool converts cubic yards to tons for the gravel size you plan to use.

Crushed gravel is not suitable for decorative paths where you want a smooth, round stone. It also is not a wear surface for high-speed traffic on its own; a binder like asphalt or a layer of finer gravel is needed.
