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







What drives the final number when you order gravel and rock for a Woodward property? The delivered price depends on how much the truck can carry, the distance it travels, and the product you choose. You pay by the ton, not the bag, which keeps the unit cost lower than retail.
Woodward gets about 26 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for every project that uses loose stone. The wrong product or an undersized base can turn a quick job into a recurring repair.
Not every gravel suits every job. Sharp-edged stone locks together under compaction; rounded stone stays loose and movable. The table below matches each product to its purpose and tells you what it does not do well so you can avoid a mismatch.
| Product | Best for | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth; does not compact firm under foot traffic. |
| River Rock | beds, borders, dry creek beds | Washes clean but will not lock together for a stable walking surface. |
| 2-4" River Rock | larger decorative cover and erosion control | Good on slopes but too large to rake smooth or walk on. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Angular, clean and made for water flow; not meant for visible top dressing. |
| Decomposed Granite | paths and patios that compact firm | Dust and gravel blend that sets hard; it ruts if used on a steep grade. |
| Crusher Run | compacting base under everything | Contains fines that bind the stone; stays soft if the subgrade is wet. |
| Road Base | lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavier gradation than crusher run; overkill for a garden path. |
Match the surface type or subgrade condition to the right material. Depth matters as much as the stone shape, so the table includes a typical starting point.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches; the large stones hold against runoff. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 2 to 3 inches compacted over a crusher run base. |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches; keeps moisture in and weeds down. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Fill trench to grade; wrap fabric to keep soil out. |
| Dry creek bed | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | 3 to 4 inches; the rounded texture mimics a stream bed. |
Woodward sits in a dry part of Oklahoma with about 26 inches of precipitation a year, so heavy runoff is rare. The soils mapped in the Woodward area are commonly somewhat excessively drained, meaning water moves through the ground fast. That affects how much base stone you need under the surface layer: area guidance suggests less drainage stone is needed under the surface because the ground already sheds water well.
About 116 days a year drop below 32F. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Frost heave can shift a thin layer of stone, so bedding a new driveway or pad with a solid crusher run base helps keep the surface flat through the winter months. The ground around Woodward is in hydrologic group A, which means it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, so less drainage stone is needed under the surface.
Woodward County permitted about 1 single-family home in 2024. That is a county figure, but it points to a market where most gravel orders go into existing driveways, farm lanes, and ranch roads rather than new subdivisions. The work window runs from spring through fall, with winter reserved for maintenance grading and topping off a settled surface.
Tonnage depends on the area in square feet and the depth you plan to lay. A 3-inch layer of crushed stone weighs roughly 400 pounds per cubic yard, but the exact figure changes with moisture content and stone density.

Ordering is done entirely online by the ton, and the delivery price is calculated at checkout based on your ZIP code. A dump truck brings the load to your address, typically carrying 1 to 40-plus tons per trip. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders.
The delivery date you choose at checkout must be at least 3 business days after the order is placed. You pick a window: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required to confirm the delivery. You get an email confirmation when the order is placed, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.

Yes. About 116 days a year drop below 32F, so frozen ground and icy roads can delay a dump truck. Gravel Monkey schedules deliveries at least 3 business days out, and you approve a final window before the truck rolls. If the forecast looks bad, your driver will coordinate with you on timing.
Not especially. The area gets about 26 inches of precipitation a year, and the ground soaks water up quickly, so standing water is rare. Washout becomes a concern only on steep slopes where a heavy rain can carry loose stone downhill. That is one reason Dekalb County's larger river rock is often used for erosion control instead of pea gravel.
Yes. You or someone you nominate must be at the site during the delivery window. The driver needs a person to confirm where the load goes and to approve the drop. If nobody is there, a missed delivery or redelivery fee can apply, and the order is not refunded.
Yes. New customers save $50 on their first order by entering the code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout. The offer applies to qualifying orders, and the discount is subtracted from the order total before payment is processed.
