Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your New Philadelphia address and unloads right where you point.
Many buyers confuse crushed gravel with washed gravel, but the difference matters. Crushed gravel has angular edges that lock together when compacted, giving a stable surface that resists shifting. New Philadelphia gets about 41 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and compaction are essential to prevent washout.
The right crushed gravel for your job depends on what sits underneath and what drives over it. A thin surface layer over soft ground will fail fast, no matter how good the stone looks.
Crushed gravel splits into two groups: smaller sizes for a finished surface and larger sizes for a structural base. The table below lists every size Gravel Monkey delivers to New Philadelphia addresses, with what each does best.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Use as a top course for paths, patios and under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Balances stability and traffic comfort for car and light truck use. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good beneath concrete or heavy equipment staging areas. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a thick, stable layer where the ground cannot support lighter stone. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Used in wet areas or for deep fill where drainage must keep up with heavy rain. |
The table below matches common projects with a budget option and a longer-term option. Budget means fewer inches of stone; long-term means a thicker lift with a larger base stone.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel as first lift, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel as wearing course | 6 to 8 inches total, compacted in two lifts |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel for the base | 4 to 6 inches, compacted |
| Compacted base for pavers or asphalt | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Depth matches trench; compact in layers |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel on a 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel base | 6 to 10 inches total, depending on expected truck traffic |
New Philadelphia sees about 84 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground avoids rutting from the dump truck. The area also gets about 26 inches of snow annually, which means plowing can push a loose gravel surface around unless it is well compacted.
About 134 days a year drop below freezing. Ground freezing here is real but moderate, so a base layer of 3/4" Crushed Gravel at 4 to 6 inches is usually enough to keep the surface from heaving. Soils mapped in the New Philadelphia area are commonly well drained, which means less base stone is required under the surface layer than in clay-heavy areas.
The ground around New Philadelphia is in hydrologic group B, meaning it takes water in at a moderate rate. Standard base depth is usually enough for good drainage. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
You estimate tonnage by multiplying the length, width, and depth of the area in feet, then dividing by the cubic feet a ton of crushed gravel covers. A ton of 3/4" Crushed Gravel covers about 90 square feet at 3 inches deep. Use the material calculators on Gravel Monkey's site to figure your exact tonnage before you order.

For driveways and parking areas that carry cars or light trucks, a compacted layer of 3/4" Crushed Gravel at 4 to 6 inches is standard. Heavier trucks or farm equipment may need a base of 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel under the surface, totaling 8 to 10 inches.
A residential gravel driveway should have a total depth of 6 to 8 inches of crushed gravel. The bottom 4 inches can be a larger base stone, topped with 2 to 3 inches of 3/4" Crushed Gravel for a smooth, compacted surface.
