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







Whether you are building a firm path or lining a dry creek bed, the right gravel or rock keeps the job from washing out or settling unevenly. In Collierville, where about 57 inches of precipitation fall each year, choosing material that handles drainage matters.
Crusher Run makes a compact base that resists shifting, while 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel gives a smooth finish for patios and play areas. Both are delivered by the ton to your address.
Think of the split between base material and finish material. Base products like Crusher Run and Road Bear load-bearing stone that compacts firm. Finish products like River Rock and Pea Gravel add the look and the top layer. Every product comes as a full truckload or a partial load.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth underfoot |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Variety of sizes for natural look |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover, erosion control | Heavy enough to stay in place on slopes |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular stone for water flow |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Dust and fines lock together when tamped |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Angular stone with fines for a solid pad |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Designed for heavy load bearing |
Budget options work for temporary projects, while long-term jobs need material that resists washout and load-bearing failure. The table below matches common Collierville projects to products and depths.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 4 inches compacted in lifts |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 6 inches minimum to hold |
| French drain | Drain Rock | 1.5 times pipe diameter |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock | 4 to 6 inches for visual depth |
| Landscape beds | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | 2 inches over fabric |
Collierville sees about 78 wet days a year, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters. A truck that sinks into mud is a problem nobody wants. About 68 days a year drop below freezing, which can shift an unsettled base. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Soils mapped in the Collierville area are commonly moderately well drained. That means you might need more base stone under a surface layer where drainage is slower. The ground around Collierville is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where drain tile or grading is good, water sinks in slowly; where it is not, most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than in areas with sandier soil.
Snowfall averages about 2 inches a year, so plowing damage to a loose surface is rare but worth noting if you have a long driveway. Frost penetration is moderate, which affects how deep a base layer should go for a driveway that needs to stay level. Talk to your contractor about the right depth for your specific site.
Tonnage depends on the area, the depth you plan, and the material's density. Use our material calculators to get a close figure for your Collierville job. Enter your square footage and the depth, and the calculator gives you tons. That number is what you order; no guessing.

Gravel and rock often work with another material on the same job. These options deliver together in one order or separate loads.
Yes. With about 68 freezing days a year, an uncompacted base can heave. A compacted layer of Crusher Run or Road Base resists that movement. Order a base product that you can compact in lifts if the project will carry a load or see foot traffic in winter.
Collierville gets about 57 inches of rain a year, so washout is a real risk on slopes and in low spots. Using larger rock like 2-4" River Rock or Drain Rock in erosion-prone areas helps. Proper base depth and drainage planning reduce the chance of material moving downhill.
Smaller angular stone with fines, like Crusher Run and Decomposed Granite, compacts into a firm surface. Larger round rock does not lock together and stays loose. For a stable base, use a product with a mix of sizes down to dust. For a decorative top layer, larger rock works because it does not need to bear weight.
Fabric blocks weeds from growing up through the stone and slows the rock from sinking into the soil. It is worth adding under Pea Gravel or River Rock in beds and paths. Under a compacted base like Crusher Run, fabric is less useful because the stone binds with the soil anyway.
