Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Texas address and unloads right where you point.
Contractors order crushed gravel in full truckloads for base courses and farm roads. Homeowners often call for a smaller amount to top a driveway or fill a pad. Both need the right size for the load the ground will carry.
Gravel Monkey delivers crushed gravel throughout Texas by the ton. You pick the size online, choose a delivery window, and a dump truck drops the material at your address.
The sizes run from a fine compacting layer up to large pieces that control mud. Read the table to match your project to the right product. Each product page has photos and more detail.
| Size | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Works as a final grade under pavers or as a walking surface. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Packs well for driveways, pads and general fill. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used beneath parking areas or equipment yards. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges weak spots before a finer surface layer. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Handles wet traffic areas and very soft ground. |
Each project has a typical starting size and depth. The table below gives a common pairing for the five most frequent jobs we see.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches as a bridging layer |
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel over 1 1/2" base | 4 to 6 inches of 3/4" on a compacted 6-inch base |
| Trench backfill | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | Fill in layers, compact each 6 to 8 inches |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted, crown the surface |
| Compacted base for pavement | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel or 1 1/2" | 6 to 8 inches compacted, confirm load rating |
Texas spans several climate zones. Across the cities we deliver to, annual precipitation runs from about 19 to 52 inches. Freezing days range from about 5 to 67 days a year below 32F. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing.
Where rainfall is high, drainage under the gravel becomes more important. A base that can shed water through a permeable subgrade or a pipe system lasts longer. Hydrologic groups D or C are the most common across the served cities. Soils in those groups drain slowly, so a thicker crushed-gravel base may be needed to distribute the load.
Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Freeze-thaw cycles can heave a poorly compacted layer, especially in the northern parts of Texas where freezing days are more frequent.

Crushed gravel is one of several aggregates available. Compare it with these related products.
Rainfall varies widely. Across the cities we deliver to, annual precipitation runs from about 19 to 52 inches. In wetter areas, choose a larger angular size that drains well. Where freezing days are more common (up to 67 days a year in parts of the state), a thicker compacted base helps resist frost heave.
Texas has spring load restrictions on some county roads. Delivery timing is arranged at checkout, and the supplier works around any posted limits. You choose a delivery window (morning 7 am to 12 pm or afternoon 12 pm to 5 pm) and confirm the access route.
We stock five sizes: 3/8", 3/4", 1" to 1 1/2", 1 1/2", and 2" to 3". Each is crushed and angular, not rounded. The product pages show exact dimensions and typical uses.
