Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Sevierville address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed gravel is an angular stone material used for driveways, paths, and base layers. You buy it by the ton through an online order, then it is delivered to your address by dump truck. Sevierville gets about 53 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage planning matters when you install a gravel surface.
The material compacts tightly and resists washing out better than rounded gravel. You pick the size based on the job, and the price is calculated at checkout based on tonnage and your ZIP code.
Crushed gravel comes in five common sizes, each with a specific use. The table matches each product to typical applications and notes what to watch for.
| Size | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Used as a top dressing over larger stone for a firm walking surface. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts well and works for most driveway and parking areas. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Handles truck traffic and equipment parking without shifting. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges soft ground before you add a finer wearing course. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Large stones lock together to stabilize wet or low areas. |
The table below suggests which crushed gravel sizes to order for common jobs. Depths are general; use the calculator for your exact tonnage.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Fill in lifts and compact each layer. |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel over 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches of 3/4" base then 2 inches of 3/8". |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches as the first lift. |
| Farm and site access road | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted base. |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4-inch minimum depth after compaction. |
Sevierville has about 110 wet days a year, so scheduling delivery on dry ground is key. Freezing temperatures drop below 32F on about 104 days, which compresses the workable season. Snowfall of about 8 inches a year can damage a loose gravel surface if plowed.
Soils in the Sevierville area are commonly well drained, which means base stone requirements can be lower than in clay soil.
Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. That deeper layer of 1 1/2" or 2"-3" gravel helps the base stay solid through temperature swings.
You estimate tonnage by multiplying the length, width, and depth of your area in feet, then dividing by the cubic feet per ton for the size you choose. Use Gravel Monkey's material calculators to get a precise number for your project.

The tonnage depends on the area, depth, and material size. The ground around Sevierville takes water in at a moderate rate, which influences how quickly rain drains through the gravel. This can affect the base depth you need. Use the material calculators to get an exact figure.

Yes. Smaller sizes like 3/8" crushed gravel compact into a dense, almost smooth surface. Larger sizes like 2"-3" crushed gravel interlock but leave more air gaps, so they do not compact as tightly.
A gravel driveway typically uses a 4 to 6 inch base of compacted crushed gravel topped with a 2 inch layer of finer material. The exact depth depends on your soil and load. Use the calculator to determine the right amount for your driveway.
