Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Georgetown address and unloads right where you point.
Choosing the right crushed gravel size for a Georgetown project matters because drainage and load bearing change with every fraction. The five sizes here cover everything from a thin compacted base to a deep mud mat. Georgetown gets about 55 inches of precipitation a year, so washout planning starts with picking the right gradation.
All gravel is sold by the ton and delivered in a dump truck straight to your address. You pick the size and the day, Gravel Monkey handles the rest.
The most ordered product for Georgetown jobs is 3/4" crushed gravel. It works for most base layers and driveways. The table below shows every size and what each one does best.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | fine compacting layer | Locks tight for a smooth finish under pavers or pathways. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | the workhorse size for base and drives | Angular particles interlock well for a stable surface. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | structural base under heavy loads | Handles truck traffic and repeated weight without shifting. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | first lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak spots before a finer layer goes on top. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | mud control and deep fill | Large stones let water pass while keeping equipment on top. |
The table below matches five typical jobs to the right product and the depth you need. Use it to build your order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches, compacted in lifts. |
| Farm and site access road | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 10 inches on firm ground; deeper over soft areas. |
| Compacted base | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches, compacted to 95% proctor. |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 10 to 12 inches to bridge and drain. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches, compacted flat. |
Georgetown's weather patterns determine how long a crushed gravel surface lasts and how much base you need. The area sees about 75 wet days a year, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground matters. About 33 days drop below 32F, but the ground rarely freezes deep enough to lift a compacted layer. Snowfall is essentially zero inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern.
Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts. Soils mapped in the Georgetown area are commonly moderately well drained, which means a good base of larger stone under the wearing course helps prevent rutting. The ground around Georgetown falls in dual hydrologic group B/D. Where it is drained, water soaks in at a moderate rate. Where it is not, water runs across the surface. That split means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than in many other places.
Plan to add an extra 2 to 3 inches of base material if you are working in a low area or on clay soil. Gravel Monkey can help you estimate the right depth when you order online.
Crushed gravel is sold by the ton. A cubic yard of 3/4" crushed gravel weighs about 1.4 tons, but the weight changes with moisture and stone type. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to convert your square footage and depth into tons. Enter the length, width and depth, and the calculator gives you the right order size.

Yes. Soils mapped in the Georgetown area are commonly moderately well drained. That means a deeper base of larger stone under the surface layer can help keep a drive or pad stable. The ground is in dual hydrologic group B/D, so drainage depends on the site. If the ground holds water, plan on an extra 2 to 3 inches of base material to keep the surface from rutting.
The smallest load Gravel Monkey delivers is 1 ton. You can order any quantity from 1 ton up to 40+ tons on a single dump truck. The material calculators on the site help you turn your project dimensions into the right tonnage.
Yes. Smaller sizes like 3/8" crushed gravel compact to a denser, smoother surface because the particles fill voids tightly. Larger sizes like 1 1/2" or 2"-3" leave more open space, which helps drainage but reduces load-bearing uniformity. The right size depends on whether you need a tight surface or a free-draining base.
Crushed gravel is sold by the ton. A ton is a weight measurement, not a volume. The weight of a cubic yard varies with stone type and moisture. Use the calculator on the Gravel Monkey site to convert your project area and depth into tons. The checkout shows the delivered price for your ZIP code.
