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





Walkway gravel is crushed stone sized to pack into a firm, permeable surface for footpaths. It is a different product from driveway gravel, which needs larger stones to hold vehicle weight. In Beaumont, where about 63 inches of rain falls each year, a walkway that drains poorly can turn into a muddy mess. That is why base preparation and the right stone size matter.
Gravel Monkey delivers walkway gravel by the ton to Beaumont and all of Jefferson County. You can order the exact size you need online, and the truck brings it straight to your address.
Walkway gravel is not designed for heavy loads like a driveway or road base. Its strength is in creating a stable, drainable surface for people walking. The following table shows the sizes we deliver to Beaumont and what each one works best for.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | A general mix for simple, straight walkways that need good compaction. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | A small, even stone that makes a comfortable, almost level walking surface. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | A mid-size stone that packs well for paths that see wheelbarrows or light carts. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | An informal, chunky gravel for side yards and areas where drainage is a priority. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | A decorative, oversized stone for edging and dry creek features. |
The table below matches typical project types to the right walkway gravel size. Choose the material that fits your surface and expected use.
| Project | What to order | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Side-yard walkway | 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Packs well in narrow spaces and handles occasional foot traffic. |
| Garden path | 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Even, compacted surface that is comfortable to walk on in garden settings. |
| Patio base | Walkway Gravel | Provides a stable, compactible base for laying pavers or flagstone. |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Large decorative stones that create a natural edge and resist spreading. |
| Play area surfacing | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Firm but impact-absorbing surface that drains well for play areas. |
Beaumont receives about 63 inches of rain annually, more than many other parts of Texas. That much rainfall means your walkway needs a base that drains well. The soil in the area is in hydrologic group D, which means it takes water in very slowly and most rain runs off the surface. That is why a deeper gravel base is important here than in places with sandy, fast-draining soil.
With only about 13 days a year that drop below freezing, ground heave is not a big worry. Frost does not penetrate deep enough to push up a walkway, so you do not need an unusually thick base. And with about 0 inches of snowfall each year, you will never have to worry about a plow scattering loose gravel off your path.
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Because every project is different, the simplest way to find the right tonnage is to use our material calculators. Enter the length and width of your walkway, along with the depth you want, and the calculator gives you the tons needed. That takes the guesswork out of ordering.
Ordering is done online: choose your walkway gravel size and quantity by the ton, and select a delivery date at least 3 business days out. At checkout, the price is calculated based on your ZIP code. You pick a morning or afternoon window. A valid phone number is required for the driver to reach you. You will get an email confirmation, and closer to the date a second email with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only happens after you approve that second email. You or someone you nominate must be present during the window.
The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet. If access is tight, the crew will unload as close as they safely can. Inspect the load within 48 hours and photograph anything wrong. Gravel Monkey will correct a wrong material or wrong location, but not damage to driveways or natural variation. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off your first order.

The smallest load is one ton. Because Beaumont gets about 0 inches of snow per year, there are no winter weight restrictions to worry about, so you can order a single ton any time.
With only about 13 freezing days a year, nearly any month works. The best time is during a dry stretch to keep the base firm and make spreading easier. Spring and fall are usually the driest periods.
Landscape fabric is recommended. It separates the gravel from the soil, which reduces weed growth and keeps the stones from sinking into the mud. In Beaumont's wet climate, fabric also helps draining by keeping the base from becoming a muck layer.
Edge restraints such as plastic or metal edging do the job. You can also use larger border stones or timber. A solid base and proper depth also help the gravel stay in place.
Getting the right amount of walkway gravel starts with a quick calculation. Use our material calculators to figure the tons you need based on your path dimensions. Order for Beaumont through our Beaumont page to get started.
