Swanton's Climate and Soil and Their Impact on Crushed Stone Projects

Swanton sees about 86 days a year with measurable rain. Schedule delivery onto firm ground to avoid rutting. Freezing temperatures on about 154 days a year shorten the work season for stone installation. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and a thin base shows up as ruts.

The ground freezes deep and long. Base layers must be thick enough to resist frost heave. Soils mapped in the Swanton area are commonly excessively drained and soak up water quickly, which reduces the need for drainage stone. Frost depth remains the main factor for base thickness.

Estimating How Much Crushed Stone You Need for Your Project

Measure the length and width of the area in feet, then decide on the depth in inches. Use our crushed stone calculator to convert those dimensions into tons. The calculator handles the math so you know exactly how much to order.
