Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your King George address and unloads right where you point.
King George gets about 45 inches of precipitation a year. That rainfall means drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel surface. Crushed gravel's angular shape locks together well, which helps it resist erosion under heavy rain.
Whether you are building a driveway, a shed pad, or a farm road, the right crushed gravel size makes the difference between a surface that stays put and one that needs constant maintenance.
The 3/4 inch crushed gravel is the most ordered size for King George jobs. It works as a compacted base for driveways and building pads. Other sizes handle specific needs from fine toppings to deep fill.
| Product | Best Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Good for pathways and as a top coat over larger stone. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Most versatile; compacts to a firm, stable surface. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used under concrete, asphalt, or gravel for extra stability. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Bridges soft ground without pushing in; good for muddy sites. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Largest size; used in wet areas and for large volume fills. |
Each project has a recommended product and depth. The table below matches typical jobs to the right crushed gravel size.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Shed or slab pad | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches compacted |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches as first lift |
| Trench backfill | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Compacts easily around pipes |
| Farm and site access road | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 8 to 12 inches for mud control |
| Compacted base | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches under surface layer |
About 76 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means scheduling a delivery onto firm ground matters. Wet days can turn a site into mud and delay spreading the stone.
About 93 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That freezing cycle tightens the work window and causes ground heave. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Snowfall runs about 12 inches a year, and plowing can damage a loose surface if the base isn't compacted.
Soils mapped in the King George area are commonly somewhat excessively drained. That affects how much base stone you need under the surface layer. The ground around King George soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, so you may need less drainage stone than in other places. King George County permitted about 153 single-family homes in 2024, so many new construction sites are looking for base stone for driveways and building pads.
