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





Many homeowners pick a single size of gravel for their entire walkway, not realizing that a two-layer system gives better results. The base layer needs angular stone for drainage, while the surface layer should be smooth and comfortable to walk on.
Windsor receives about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning is essential for a stable walkway. A well-drained base prevents shifting and puddles.
Choosing the right walkway gravel means knowing the difference between what goes underneath and what stays on top. The table below lists the sizes we carry for Windsor deliveries.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | Versatile blend for most residential paths. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Ideal for barefoot areas and tight walking surfaces. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Sturdy enough for light equipment traffic. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Good base-layer size for larger projects. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Large stones that stay in place without binding. |
Budget-conscious buyers often skip the base layer, but a deeper base lasts longer. The table below pairs each project with the right product for durability.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Garden path | Base: 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel; top: 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Base 4 inches, top 2 inches for firm footing. |
| Side-yard walkway | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches deep for a tight, smooth surface. |
| Patio base | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel; then 3/8" or 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Base 4 inches, top 1 to 2 inches for level finish. |
| Play area surfacing | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches deep for cushion and drainage. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer for visual impact; no compaction needed. |
Bertie County permitted about 46 single-family homes in 2024, and Windsor's population is roughly 3,487. Many properties here are rural lanes or in-town lots where drainage matters.
About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important. With roughly 52 days per year below freezing, the work window in cooler months is short, but the ground does not freeze deep enough to shift a well-built base. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Snowfall averages only about 1 inch a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is rarely a concern. Soils mapped in the Windsor area are commonly very poorly drained, so more base stone under the surface layer helps keep the walkway stable.
Estimating tonnage starts with measuring the length and width of your path, then deciding the depth. Use our material calculators to convert square feet and depth into tons. The calculator accounts for the specific product density.

The tonnage depends on the area and depth you plan. Soils in the Windsor area are commonly very poorly drained, so you may need a deeper base layer to improve drainage, increasing the total tonnage. Use our material calculators for an estimate based on your dimensions.
Choose the size based on the layer. For a stable walkway, start with a base of 1 to 1.5 inch gravel for drainage, then top with 3/8 inch gravel for a comfortable walking surface. Larger 2 to 3 inch gravel works for decorative edging only.
