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







Buying gravel and rock by the ton makes sense for most projects in and around Clarksville. Montgomery County permitted about 1,842 single-family homes in 2024, and each new property often needs a base layer under driveways, patios or paths. You can order anywhere from 1 to 40 tons and have it dumped at your address.
The size and shape of the stone you pick determines how it behaves underfoot, in a drain, or on a slope. Knowing what each product does helps you buy the right one the first time.
Gravel and rock range from smooth pea gravel for play areas to coarse road base for heavy traffic. The table below lists every product Gravel Monkey delivers to Clarksville.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth underfoot |
| River Rock | beds, borders, dry creek beds | Comes in several sizes for a natural look |
| 2-4" River Rock | larger decorative cover and erosion control | Stays in place on moderate slopes |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular, no fines to clog pipe |
| Decomposed Granite | paths and patios that compact firm | Locks together to form a solid surface |
| Crusher Run | compacting base under everything | Contains fines so it packs tight |
| Road Base | lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty blend for load-bearing areas |
Match the product to the problem you are solving. The table below suggests what to order for five common jobs.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape beds | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Light layer to cover soil |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Fill trench generously around pipe |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | Thick enough to absorb runoff energy |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock | Mix sizes for natural appearance |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | Compact in layers for stability |
Soils mapped in the Clarksville area are commonly well drained, so the base layer under a surface of gravel or rock may need less depth than in areas with heavy clay. That can save you material if your site matches the typical soil description.
Clarksville gets about 56 inches of precipitation a year, enough to make washout a real concern on loose surfaces. You should plan for the water to flow away from driveways and paths. About 85 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling your delivery onto firm ground is wise. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Freezing days number about 87 a year, which means the ground does shift. That is why a compacted base is important. Snowfall runs about 4 inches a year, and plowing can displace a loose top layer. The ground around Clarksville takes water in at a moderate rate, so a standard base depth is usually enough.
Rather than guess the tonnage, use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey website. Enter the area and the depth you want, and the tool gives you the weight in tons. That is the quickest way to order the right quantity without shortfall or overage.
