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







Gravel and rock serve different roles in a landscape, from a compacted base to a clean decorative cover. In Juncos, the rainfall of about 72 inches a year means anything you put on the ground needs to drain well or it will wash out.
Ordering the right type for your project matters more than the color or the size. The wrong material on a slope can move with the first storm, and a fragile surface can rut out in a season.
Not every gravel and rock works for every job in Juncos. A material that handles a dry creek bed may not hold a driveway. One that looks good in a patio may wash out on a slope. The table below shows what each product is for and where it does not belong.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | play areas, patios, rounded and smooth | Not suitable for driveways or heavy traffic; the rounded stones shift easily and create ruts. |
| River Rock | beds, borders, dry creek beds | Not for walking paths; the uneven surface makes walking difficult and can twist ankles. |
| 2-4" River Rock | larger decorative cover and erosion control | Not for small beds; the large stone size overwhelms tight planting areas. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Not for decorative use; the angular, plain look is not attractive in visible beds. |
| Decomposed Granite | paths and patios that compact firm | Not for wet areas; decomposed granite can wash out in heavy rain if not compacted well. |
| Crusher Run | compacting base under everything | Not as a top layer; crusher run is dusty and rough for walking surfaces. |
| Road Base | lanes and pads that carry trucks | Not for landscape beds; the heavy compaction restricts root growth in planting areas. |
The table below pairs common projects with the best gravel and rock from our inventory. Depth suggestions are for general guidance; adjust based on your site conditions.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches; stays in place on moderate slopes |
| French drain | Drain Rock | 12 inches; clean, angular rock allows water flow |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 2 to 3 inches; compacts to a hard, stable surface |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 inches; decorative, suppresses weed growth |
| Dry creek bed | 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches; natural look, handles water flow |
Juncos gets about 72 inches of precipitation a year. That rainfall drives drainage planning: choose gravel that sheds water, not holds it. Mixing in drain rock under a decorative layer can prevent washout on slopes.
About 118 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters because a wet site can cause ruts and delay work. Plan the drop for a period when the ground is dry.
The area sees about 0 days below 32F each year. With no freeze-thaw cycle, the ground does not heave or shift. That gives you a wider work window, but the material still needs a stable base. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
To figure out how many tons you need, measure the length and width of the area and the depth of material you plan to use. Then use our material calculators to convert those dimensions into an estimated tonnage for your Juncos project.

Gravel and rock often work with other bulk materials for a complete job. Consider these additions:
Yes, Juncos is wet enough that drainage should drive the choice. With about 72 inches of precipitation a year, material that holds water leads to washout and soggy spots. Choose angular, open-graded rock for areas that need to drain fast.
No, the freeze season in Juncos does not change what you should order. The area sees about 0 days below 32F each year, so frost heave is not a concern. You can use any material without worrying about freeze-thaw damage.
Yes, Gravel Monkey takes orders from businesses as well as homeowners. The same online ordering process applies for both. Commercial projects often need larger quantities, and orders can be adjusted to that scale.
Gravel and rock is measured by the ton and sold by the ton. You specify the number of tons when you order online. The calculator on the site helps you convert your cubic feet or yards into tons.
