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






When you order driveway gravel from Gravel Monkey in Kennewick, you buy it by the ton online and have it delivered by dump truck to your address. Loads run from one ton up to more than 40 tons. The process is the same whether your driveway is inside the city or out in Benton County.
Kennewick gets about 9 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning critical for a gravel driveway. The right base layer and surface stone keep washout from becoming a problem over time.
Each driveway gravel product fits a different set of conditions. Choose by traffic level, ground softness and whether the surface needs to be comfortable to walk on. The table below lists what each size does best.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | General driveway top layer | A solid all-purpose choice for most residential driveways in the area. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | Works well for driveways where people walk or pets cross regularly. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | The standard driveway size, locks together well | Packs tightly and resists shifting under normal car and truck traffic. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Heavier traffic and soft ground | A larger stone that spreads load and stays put on yielding soil. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Deep base layer under a finer top | Meant to go below a smaller surface stone for extra stability. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | Rural lanes, mud control, first lift | The coarsest option, used where the ground needs a strong starting layer. |
The right material depends on what you are building or repairing. Use the project guide below to match the job with the product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Resurfacing an existing driveway | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | 2 to 3 inches over compacted base |
| Culvert and shoulder repair | 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Sized to stay in place near water flow |
| Muddy rural lane | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | First lift, topped with a finer stone |
| Parking pad | 3/8" Driveway Gravel | Smooth surface, comfortable to walk on |
| New driveway base | 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | Stable foundation before surface stone |
About 105 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit in Kennewick. That many freeze-thaw cycles work loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. A thicker base layer under your surface stone gives the driveway room to settle without rutting.
Soils mapped in the Kennewick area are commonly well drained, so standard base depth is usually enough. The ground around here takes water in at a moderate rate, meaning a typical gravel driveway with proper base stone holds up well through the wet months. About 27 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground keeps the truck from sinking on soft soil.
Snowfall runs about 7 inches a year, which matters mostly for plowing. A loose gravel surface can get pushed aside by a snowplow blade, so a well-compacted top layer reduces the damage.
Tonnage depends on the area you are covering and the depth you want. A driveway that is 12 feet wide and 50 feet long at 3 inches deep needs a different load than a short parking pad at 2 inches. Use the driveway gravel calculator on the Gravel Monkey site to get a tonnage estimate before you order.
