Driveway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Sioux Falls address and unloads right where you point.






The delivered price of driveway gravel in Sioux Falls comes down to the stone you choose and the distance the truck covers from the source. Ordering by the ton keeps costs straightforward, and delivery is added at checkout based on your ZIP code.
With about 29 inches of precipitation a year, planning for drainage is part of any driveway project here. A well-drained base prevents washout and keeps the surface stable over time.
The right gravel depends on the traffic and the subgrade. Below are the driveway gravel options you can order for delivery to a Sioux Falls address, each with a note on where it falls short.
| Product | Best for | Note |
| Driveway Gravel | General driveway top layer | Not for heavy truck traffic or very soft soil; use a thicker base. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Not for heavy loads or deep mud; best for parking pads or walkways. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | The standard driveway size, locks together well | Not for deep ruts or very wet ground; requires a solid base. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Heavier traffic and soft ground | Not suitable as a finished surface; use a finer top layer. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Deep base layer under a finer top | Not for direct driving; it is a sub-base material. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | Rural lanes, mud control, first lift | Not for fine grading; it is the largest size for mud and thick bases. |
The table below matches common projects with the right driveway gravel from Gravel Monkey for your Sioux Falls site.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
| Muddy rural lane | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel as a first lift, then 3/4" Driveway Gravel as a wearing course | At least 6 inches total; 4 inches of base and 2 inches of top. |
| Culvert and shoulder repair | 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted in lifts. |
| Resurfacing an existing driveway | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches over the existing surface. |
| Parking pad | 3/8" Driveway Gravel | 3 inches; compact and top with 1 inch of 3/8" for comfort. |
| New driveway base | 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches on stable subgrade; add top layer if needed. |
About 53 days each year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling delivery onto firm ground is important. Wet soil can rut under the truck and the gravel, so aim for a dry stretch.
Around 162 days a year drop below freezing, which limits the work window and causes the ground to move as it thaws and refreezes. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts.
The soil in the area takes water in slowly, so surface runoff is common during heavy rain. That means a deeper drainage layer pays off to keep the driveway stable and prevent erosion.
To figure out how many tons of driveway gravel you need, multiply the length and width in feet, multiply by the desired depth in feet, and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Then multiply by about 1.4 tons per cubic yard for gravel. Use the driveway gravel calculator to get an accurate number for your driveway dimensions and material.

Yes, if you plow. Sioux Falls gets about 40 inches of snowfall annually, and plowing can gouge a loose gravel surface. Combined with spring melt, washout becomes a real risk if the base is too thin. A well-compacted top layer and good drainage address both issues.
The cost is shown at checkout when you enter your ZIP code and the total tonnage. Frost penetration in the Sioux Falls area is deep and long, so a thicker base layer may be needed, which increases the tonnage. The exact price is calculated for your address before you confirm.
