Crushed Gravel in Moab

If you are building a gravel driveway or prepping a base for a shed or slab, a crushed gravel surface starts with the right base layer. The 3/4" Crushed Gravel is the standard size for compacted base under drives, while the 1" to 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel works under heavier loads.

Moab gets about 10 inches of precipitation a year, and the ground soaks water up quickly, so drainage and washout planning matter when you choose your base depth.

Crushed Gravel Sizes for Moab Projects

Crushed gravel comes in several sizes, split between base material and finish material. Use larger stone for the first lift over soft ground and smaller stone for the top layer.

Moab Climate and Its Effect on Crushed Gravel Installations

About 117 days a year drop below freezing in Moab, and freeze-thaw cycles can shift an unstable gravel base. That makes good compaction before winter critical.

Ground freezing in Moab is deep and long, so the base layer for a gravel surface needs to be deeper to resist frost heave. Snowfall averages about 15 inches a year, and plowing a loose gravel surface can push stone around unless it is well compacted. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.

Soils mapped in the Moab area are commonly excessively drained. This means water passes through quickly, and in some subgrades you may need more base stone to maintain stability.
