Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Pennsylvania address and unloads right where you point.
Across the cities Gravel Monkey serves in Pennsylvania, annual precipitation runs from 42 to 49 inches. That rainfall, combined with the freeze-thaw cycle, makes drainage and base stability critical for any gravel job. Crushed gravel is a durable, angular aggregate that locks together under compaction and stands up to Pennsylvania's weather.
Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel by the ton to any address in Pennsylvania, from Philadelphia to the Ohio border. We price delivery by ZIP at checkout, and you choose your window.
The workhorse size for base layers and driveways is 3/4" Crushed Gravel. It hits the sweet spot between drainage and stability. The table below covers all five sizes we carry, from a fine compacting layer up to deep fill.
| Product | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works well as a leveling course under pavers or topsoil. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Most-ordered size for new driveways and road bases. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | For commercial-grade subbase under concrete or asphalt. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soils before final grading. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Coarse enough to stabilize wet sites and deep ruts. |
Each job needs a specific product and depth. Use this quick reference to pick the right crushed gravel for your project.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches compacted in lifts |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 12 inches as a bridging layer |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted, with 2"-3" mud layer if needed |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel or 1" - 1 1/2" | 4 to 6 inches for drives, 6 to 8 for heavy loads |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 4 inches compacted, then sand or stone dust |
Pennsylvania weather varies a lot from the Lake Erie shore to the Delaware River. In the cities we deliver to, the number of freezing days runs from about 111 to 161 days a year below 32F. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing, which means frost can penetrate deep into the subgrade. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.
Annual rainfall across those same cities ranges from 42 to 49 inches. The most common hydrologic soil groups are D and C, which are slow-draining clays and silty loams. That combination of freeze-thaw and poor drainage means you need a thicker base to prevent heaving and rutting. Crushed gravel's angular particles drain well and resist shifting.
PennDOT runs a spring load-restriction program that limits truck weights on certain roads during the thaw period. This can affect delivery timing for large orders, so plan ahead. We handle the routing and let you know if your load is affected.
We deliver to addresses across the state, not only the cities listed below. Here are some of the places we serve often.

Tonnage depends on the area and the compacted depth. For a driveway, figure about 1.4 tons per cubic yard of crushed gravel. Use our material calculators to enter your dimensions and get a tonnage estimate for any product.

Someone must be present during the window to receive the load. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. For more details, see our About Gravel Monkey page, check customer reviews, or read the full delivery information.
