Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Guaynabo address and unloads right where you point.
Most crushed gravel projects require between 1 and 20 tons of material. Guaynabo gets about 73 inches of precipitation each year, so drainage planning matters when you choose your depth and base.
The right crushed gravel size depends on the ground beneath it and the load it needs to carry. Delivery by dump truck puts the material exactly where you need it.
Each size serves a different purpose. Pick the one that matches the conditions at your site.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Forms a tight surface for walkways or as a top dressing. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Handles vehicle loads well when compacted to 4 to 6 inches. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used under concrete or for commercial-grade parking areas. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak soils before a finer wearing course goes on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Creates a stable foundation in wet areas where smaller stone would sink. |
The table below matches typical jobs with the right product and placement depth.

Guaynabo sees about 118 wet days each year, when at least a tenth of an inch of rain falls. Scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters because a truck needs steady footing to reach the drop point. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point.
The county averages zero freezing days per year below 32F. That means the ground does not heave from frost, so you can place crushed gravel year-round without freeze-thaw cycles working it loose. Drainage still matters in the wet months, and the angular shape of crushed gravel helps water move through the base rather than pooling.
Soils in the Guaynabo area are typically clay-based, which holds moisture. A thicker base of crushed gravel, at least 6 inches for driveways, reduces the chance of the stone pushing down into the subgrade.
To estimate tonnage, multiply the length by the width of the area in feet, then by the depth in inches, then divide by 20 for crushed gravel. That gives a rough tonnage, but you can get an exact number with Gravel Monkey's material calculators. Enter your dimensions and the calculator tells you the tons required.

Pair crushed gravel with these materials for a complete job.
Yes. Soils in Guaynabo Municipio are often clay-heavy, which holds moisture and can shift under weight. To counter that, you may need a thicker crushed gravel base, typically 6 to 8 inches for driveways, instead of the 4 inches used on well-draining sand or gravel subgrades. The clay also means drainage planning is extra important, especially since Guaynabo gets about 73 inches of rain a year.
Any time of year works because Guaynabo averages about zero freezing days. However, the wet season from May to October brings about 118 wet days, making it harder for a truck to access a soft yard. Dry months like January through April give firmer ground for both delivery and compaction.
Crushed gravel does not work well as a decorative top layer because the angular edges look rough and do not lock together as tightly as pebble or smooth river rock. It is also not a substitute for structural fill under large concrete slabs, where engineered crushed stone with specific gradation is preferred.
Yes. A contractor can place the order and have the delivery address set to the job site. The contractor just needs to provide a valid phone number for delivery confirmation and be available during the chosen window to receive the load.
