Walkway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your La Follette address and unloads right where you point.





When you order walkway gravel from Gravel Monkey, a dump truck brings the load to your address and drops it where you mark the spot. You choose the delivery window at checkout, and someone must be on site to receive the truck.
About 92 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain in La Follette, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground helps avoid a muddy start. Plan for a stretch of dry weather for the best results.
Walkway gravel comes in sizes from fine to coarse. The smaller sizes make a stable walking surface, while the larger sizes work as a base layer or decorative element. Here are the available products:
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | A versatile mix that works for most residential walkways and garden paths. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Ideal for barefoot-friendly paths and areas where a smooth surface matters. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Compact enough for foot traffic yet sturdy enough for light cart use. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | A looser fill that allows drainage while keeping a natural look. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Large stones that stay in place and add a bold visual element. |
For a budget-friendly option, use a larger gravel as a base and top it with a smaller size. For a long-term solution, use a well-compacted base of crushed stone and a stable surface layer. This table shows common projects:
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Play area surfacing | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Apply over a compacted sub-base for a soft, even surface. |
| Garden path | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Use as a top dressing; compacts well under foot. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Place as a border or fill to create visual contrast. |
| Patio base | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Spread as a base layer before pavers or slabs. |
| Side-yard walkway | Walkway Gravel | Applied directly over prepared ground for casual use. |
La Follette gets about 55 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout need to be accounted for in walkway design. A well-graded base stone helps water move through the surface layer.
About 107 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift an unstable base, causing ruts and uneven spots. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. The ground freezing here is real but moderate, which affects how deep the base layer needs to be.
About 6 inches of snowfall a year means plowing can scatter loose gravel. Consider using a larger surface stone or a bound material where snow removal is frequent.
The tonnage you need depends on the area you want to cover and the depth of the layer. Use Gravel Monkey's material calculators to get a precise estimate for your project.

The amount depends on your project area and the depth you choose. Because the ground around La Follette is in hydrologic group B and takes water in at a moderate rate, standard base depth recommendations are usually enough. Use the material calculators to estimate tonnage for your space.
Spring and early fall are popular because the ground is workable and rain is less frequent. Soils mapped in the La Follette area are commonly well drained, so you may need less base stone than in areas with heavy clay.
