Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Tennessee address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed gravel is angular aggregate used for driveways, base layers, and drainage. Gravel Monkey sells it by the ton and delivers it in dump trucks to any address in Tennessee.
Five crushed gravel sizes are available, from a fine compacting layer to a heavy mud-control fill. Order online, pick a delivery window, and get a price calculated by ZIP at checkout.
Each crushed gravel size is designed for a specific purpose. Choosing the wrong one can lead to poor compaction or drainage. Use the table below to match the material to your project.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Use as a smooth surface for walkways and patios where a compacted finish is needed. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Packs well and drains quickly. Ideal under paving stones or as a compacted driveway base. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Good for road bases and areas expecting heavy truck traffic. Provides strong load distribution. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak or organic soils before topping with smaller stone. Stabilizes the base. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Large angular stone locks together to provide stable fill in wet areas and deep mud conditions. |
The table below shows the best crushed gravel size for common projects. Depth guidance assumes proper compaction for the intended use.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel base, topped with 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Compacted base lift, thinner wearing course for traffic. |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel first lift, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel | First lift bridges soft ground; second lift provides a working surface. |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel for drainage | Place in lifts and compact for proper drainage. |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compacted to depth required by the project spec. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel for fine leveling | Thin compacted layer provides a stable, level base. |
Annual rainfall across the cities we deliver to in Tennessee runs from about 48 to 60 inches. This means drainage is critical. A well-drained base with angular crushed gravel helps prevent washout and maintains stability.
Freezing days range from about 74 to 94 days a year below 32F, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
The dominant soil groups across our served cities are hydrologic groups B and C. These soils have moderate to slow infiltration. A thicker base of crushed gravel improves drainage and reduces frost heave risk.

Tennessee typically has 74 to 94 days below freezing each year, which can lead to frost-related road restrictions. Gravel Monkey coordinates with haulers who account for these seasonal limits to avoid delays.
Annual rainfall across the state ranges from 48 to 60 inches. In wetter areas, choose a larger crushed gravel size like 1 1/2 inch to improve drainage and prevent washout.
