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





Crushed gravel is crushed, angular stone that locks together under compaction. It is a go-to material for driveways, base layers, and heavy-use surfaces around Cadiz. You buy it by the ton, online, with delivery by dump truck to your address.
Cadiz gets about 42 inches of precipitation a year. That means drainage and washout planning matter when you put down crushed gravel. A well-drained base keeps the surface stable through wet spells.
Each crushed gravel size serves a different purpose. Here is what to expect from each.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer for paths and under pavers | Even surface, but needs a solid base underneath. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts well and handles everyday traffic. |
| 1", 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good for truck access and equipment pads. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges soft ground before top layers go on. |
| 2", 3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Used where the ground is really soft or needs a thick lift. |
The table below maps common projects to the right crushed gravel size. Use it as a starting point for your order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compact to a firm base |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel as base, then 3/4" on top | Two lifts, each compacted |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1", 1 1/2" | Compact in lifts |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Uniform depth after compaction |
| Farm and site access road | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel with 3/4" surface | Thicker base for heavy loads |
About 88 days a year in Cadiz bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means you want the delivery scheduled onto firm ground, not mud. A dry spell gives the base a chance to compact before the next wet day.
About 111 days a year drop below freezing. The ground around Cadiz freezes to a real but moderate depth. That freeze-thaw action can unsettle a thin gravel layer. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Plowing snow off a loose surface can also rut it, so a thicker base and a well-compacted top layer help.
The soils mapped in the Cadiz area are commonly moderately well drained. That is not the whole story, though. The ground around Cadiz takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than in places with fast-draining soil.
Crushed gravel is sold by the ton. The volume you need depends on the area and the depth of the lift. Use our material calculators to figure the right amount for your project before you order.
