Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Tullahoma address and unloads right where you point.
Coffee County has many rural and suburban properties that need crushed gravel for driveways, lanes and foundations. About 21,104 people live here, and the county permitted about 316 single-family homes in 2024, so new construction is a steady source of demand.
Crushed gravel compacts well and holds up to freeze-thaw when placed correctly. It works for everything from a farm access road to a shed pad.
The table below lists each crushed gravel size and what it does best. Choose the size that matches your project.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Best for paths and paver bases |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Most common for residential driveways |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Use under concrete or asphalt |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Starts the build in muddy conditions |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | For wet spots and deep repairs |
Common Tullahoma projects and the right crushed gravel size are listed below.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Farm and site access road | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel as first lift, then 3/4" Crushed Gravel as surface | Compact each layer to 4 to 6 inches |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Compact in lifts of 8 inches or less |
| Compacted base for a slab | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches, well compacted |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Deep fill, 6 to 12 inches depending on mud |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inches, tamped smooth |
Tullahoma gets about 59 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning are important. About 88 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which means scheduling delivery onto firm ground is smart.
Soils mapped in the Tullahoma area are commonly moderately well drained, but the actual drainage at your site may vary. Ground around Tullahoma is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained it takes water in slowly; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly. That difference affects how much base stone you need. A deeper crushed gravel base often helps in poorly drained spots.
About 79 days a year drop below 32 degrees F. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Snowfall averages about 3 inches a year, and plowing a loose crushed gravel surface can push material aside if the top layer is not compacted. The seasonal work window runs from spring to late fall for most projects.
The tonnage you need depends on the area and depth you plan to cover. The shape and compacted density of the material also affect the amount. Use our material calculators to enter your dimensions and get an estimate.
