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






The delivered cost of driveway gravel depends on the size you choose and the distance from the quarry. In Wilton, the local climate also plays a role: with about 19 inches of precipitation a year, you can often use a standard base depth without extra drainage rock. That keeps the project straightforward and the total price predictable.
Gravel Monkey handles the truck, the drop and the pricing. You only pick the size and the day.
Not every size works for every job. The table below lists each product, what it is best for, and where it falls short. Choose based on traffic, ground conditions and the layer you are building.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | General driveway top layer | Not for soft ground or heavy trucks without a base. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Too fine for a base layer or muddy lanes. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | Standard driveway size, locks together well | Not ideal for deep fill or high water tables. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Heavier traffic and soft ground | Too coarse for a finished surface on a walking path. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Deep base layer under a finer top | Not a top dress; needs smaller stone on top. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | Rural lanes, mud control, first lift | Too rough for a finished drive without a wearing course. |
The right size depends on what you are fixing. This table matches the project to the product and a typical depth or note.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Culvert and shoulder repair | 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | 6 to 8 inches, tamped |
| Resurfacing an existing driveway | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches, compacted |
| New driveway base | 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches over geotextile |
| Muddy rural lane | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | First lift, 6 to 8 inches |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | 3 to 4 inches on compacted subgrade |
Soils mapped in the Wilton area are commonly well drained. That means less base stone is usually needed under the surface layer, but you still want a stable subgrade. About 42 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so schedule the delivery onto firm ground to avoid rutting. With about 44 inches of snowfall annually, plowing can push loose gravel off the driveway; a larger top stone or a binding layer helps keep it in place.
The ground freezes deep and stays frozen long. About 184 days a year drop below 32F, so the work window runs from late spring through fall. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall. The frost heave from deep ground freezing means the base layer needs to be thick enough to resist movement; 1"-1 1/2" stone used as a base provides that stability.
Ground around Wilton takes water in at a moderate rate. That means standard base depth is usually enough to handle surface water without extra drainage. You can plan a straightforward gravel driveway without costly underdrains.
The amount of gravel you need depends on the area and the depth you plan to lay. Measuring the length and width of the driveway and multiplying by the depth in inches gives cubic feet, then our driveway gravel calculator converts that to tons. Enter your dimensions and the calculator tells you the tonnage so you can order the right amount.

Choose a delivery date at checkout that is at least 3 business days out. You pick a window: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required, and you must be on site during the window. You get an email confirmation first, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the load. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.

Driveway gravel often works alongside other aggregates for a complete job. These materials are available for delivery in Wilton.
Yes. With about 184 days below freezing each year, the ground freezes deep and can heave. You need a thicker base layer, typically 4 to 6 inches of 1"-1 1/2" stone under the surface gravel to resist movement.
Wilton gets about 19 inches of precipitation a year, which is relatively low. Drainage is less critical than in wetter climates, but you still want a crowned surface so water runs off. The well-drained soils mapped in the area also help.
3/4" Driveway Gravel is the most common for standard driveways. It locks together well, provides a firm surface, and handles passenger cars without excessive washout.
Install edge restraints like metal or plastic edging, a wooden curb, or a row of landscape timbers. A slight crown in the driveway also encourages gravel to stay in the middle rather than scatter to the sides.
Whether you are resurfacing an existing driveway or building a new base for a rural lane, the right gravel size and depth make the job last. Order online for delivery by dump truck to your Wilton address. Start by using the Wilton hub page to place your order.
