Buy Crushed Gravel in Collierville, Tennessee

Crushed gravel and crushed stone look similar: both are crushed and angular. The difference is that crushed gravel carries more fines, which help it compact into a tight surface that sheds water.

For sites in Collierville, where the average rainfall is about 57 inches a year, a compactable, angular material like crushed gravel is a good fit. The fines lock the aggregate together and limit washout on slopes.

Collierville Weather and Soil for Crushed Gravel

Wet days in Collierville number about 78 a year, each with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling a crushed gravel delivery onto firm ground matters to avoid rutting before the material is compacted.

Temperatures drop below freezing about 68 days a year. That many freeze-thaw cycles can shift a loose surface. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.

Soils mapped in the Collierville area are commonly moderately well drained. Ground around Collierville is in dual hydrologic group C/D: where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage matters more here than elsewhere, and a deeper base is worth planning for.
