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






Wadsworth receives about 42 inches of precipitation each year, which means drainage and washout are real concerns for any gravel surface. Planning the right base and top layer keeps your driveway intact through wet seasons.
Whether you are building a new drive or resurfacing an old one, ordering by the ton from Gravel Monkey gets you the right material delivered straight to your address. No need to rent a trailer or bag it yourself.
Each size of driveway gravel serves a different purpose, from a heavy base to a smooth, walkable top. Pick the one that matches your project and the ground conditions you are working with.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | General driveway top layer | A mix of sizes that compacts well and sheds water. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Often used on walkways but works for a fine driveway surface. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | The standard driveway size, locks together well | Reliable for most residential drives on stable ground. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Heavier traffic and soft ground | Wider stones give more stability where the base needs reinforcement. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Deep base layer under a finer top | Start with this, then cap with a 3/4-inch or 3/8-inch surface. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | Rural lanes, mud control, first lift | The biggest size; use where you need to build up a low or wet spot. |
The right product depends on what you are fixing. The table below matches common projects to the best size and depth.

Wadsworth sees about 82 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days mean you want to schedule your delivery onto firm ground, so try to pick a dry stretch in the forecast.
Winter brings about 129 freezing days and 36 inches of snow. Plowing a loose gravel surface can shift it around, so leaving a bit of material depth allows for that wear. Ground freezing is moderate here, but the base layer needs enough depth to stay put when the soil moves. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Soils mapped in the Wadsworth area are commonly moderately well drained, which means you may need more base stone under the surface layer than in sandy areas. The ground around Wadsworth is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere, but it depends on your specific lot.
