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







Delivered price for gravel and rock starts with the material you choose and where the truck drops it. Fairview's freeze-thaw cycle and about 45 inches of snow a year put weight on base depth, so the material underneath determines how long the surface lasts.
You order by the ton online, get a delivered price by ZIP at checkout, and a dump truck brings the load to your address. The only decision left is which size and type fits the job.
Each product below is sold by the ton and shipped from a regional quarry. The photo is a general reference; natural variation means the exact color and shape can differ by region.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth underfoot, but does not compact firm. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Washes clean and resists weed growth when laid thick. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Slows water runoff on slopes; heavy to move once placed. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular stone that moves water fast. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Dust-and-gravel blend that locks together when wet and rolled. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Includes fines; holds shape under load and resists frost heave. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty blend for driveways and parking areas. |
Match the project to the product and a typical depth range. The right base layer keeps the surface stable through Fairview's freeze-thaw cycles.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches; use filter fabric underneath. |
| French drain | Drain Rock | 3/4 to 1-1/2 inch washed stone; wrap in fabric. |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 3 to 4 inches compacted; edge restraint helps. |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches; clean rock suppresses weed growth. |
| Dry creek bed | 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches; place over river rock. |
Fairview gets about 24 inches of precipitation a year. That moisture, combined with about 189 days a year below 32F, means the ground heaves and thaws repeatedly. An unstable base shows up as soft spots in the spring.
Soils mapped in the Fairview area are commonly well drained. For a driveway, that usually means standard base depth is enough, but the deep and long frost penetration here adds to the need for a compacted layer of crusher run or road base under the surface material. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts. About 75 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters.
Ground around Fairview is in hydrologic group B, which means it takes water in at a moderate rate. That supports standard base depth for most jobs, but plowing snow can damage a loose surface, so a compacted top layer or larger rock is worth considering near driveways and walkways.
Tonnage depends on the area, the depth you want, and the material's weight per cubic yard. Use the material calculators on our site to estimate the number of tons before you order. The site will show your delivered price once you enter a ZIP code at checkout.

Yes. Fairview averages about 189 days a year below 32F, and the ground freezes deep and long. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift a thin base, so it is best to order material for a new driveway or pad early enough in the fall to complete compaction before the ground freezes.
About 75 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling your delivery onto firm ground helps the truck place the load cleanly and avoids working a wet subgrade that will settle unevenly.
Size depends on use. For a compacted base or driveway, angular material like crusher run or road base works best. For decorative beds or walkways, rounded river rock or decomposed granite is a common choice. The product table above lists the typical application for each size.
