Choosing the Right Product for Your Ashland Project

Common projects around Ashland call for specific gravels and depths. The table below matches each project to the product and recommended depth.

Ashland Climate and Soil Considerations for Gravel Work

Ashland gets about 23 inches of rain a year, so drainage and washout planning are important. The area's soils are commonly somewhat poorly drained, meaning more base stone may be needed under the surface layer. Also, the ground here is in hydrologic group D, which takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That makes drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.

With about 115 freezing days a year, the work window is shaped by cold, but the ground freezing is not a significant factor, so the base layer does not need to be as deep as in colder areas. Snowfall averages only 4 inches annually, though plowing can damage a loose surface if snow piles up. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.

Plan your delivery onto firm, dry ground, especially after wet spells. The local conditions mean that a well-drained base is the key to a lasting surface.

Estimating How Much Gravel or Rock You Need

To estimate your tonnage, measure the area in square feet and decide the depth in inches. Multiply the area by the depth, then use the material calculators on this site to convert cubic feet to tons.

The calculator accounts for the specific density of each product, so you get a number you can order. Start with the project dimensions and work from there.

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. The delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.

You or someone you nominate must be available at the site during the window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the dump truck.
