Crushed Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Stevenson address and unloads right where you point.
When you order crushed gravel from Gravel Monkey, a dump truck brings the material to your Stevenson address. You pick the drop spot and the driver places the load in a single pile. Stevenson has about 137 days a year with measurable rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground helps keep the site workable.
Crushed gravel is an angular, compactable stone that works well for driveways, paths and as a stable base for other surfaces. The right size depends on whether you need a smooth finish or a structural layer underneath.
Crushed gravel comes in sizes from fine to extra large. The smaller stones, like 3/8-inch, pack into a smooth surface for patios and paths. Larger stones, such as 3/4-inch and 1-1.5-inch, form a strong base for driveways and parking areas. The biggest size, 2 to 3 inches, is best for deep fill and mud control.
| Product | Application | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | fine compacting layer | Good for top dressing paths and under pavers. Spreads and compacts into a smooth finish. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | the workhorse size for base and drives | The standard choice for driveways and base layers under patios. Strong and affordable. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | structural base under heavy loads | Use under commercial lots, heavy equipment areas and roads that see large trucks. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | first lift over soft subgrade | A sturdy first layer that spreads weight and prevents the base from sinking. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | mud control and deep fill | Best for building up low spots, stabilizing muddy ground and deep drainage layers. |
For a short-term fix a smaller stone works. For a long-lasting driveway or pad, a larger base stone reduces future maintenance. The table below shows the recommended product and depth for each project.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | 6 or more inches to stabilize the ground |
| Trench backfill | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Fill in lifts and compact each layer |
| Compacted base | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 4 inches for a firm, level surface |
| Farm and site access road | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inches for heavy vehicle traffic |
Stevenson sees about 92 days a year drop below freezing. The freeze-and-thaw cycle can shift an unsettled base, so thorough compaction matters. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Ground freezing is real but moderate, which affects how deep the base layer needs to sit.
The area gets about 83 inches of precipitation annually. Drainage planning is important to keep water from washing out the gravel. About 17 inches of snow falls each year. Plowing a loose crushed gravel surface can uneven it, so a well-compacted base helps resist damage.
Soils mapped in the Stevenson area are commonly well drained. That means the site usually dries out reasonably fast after rain, and standard base depths often work. The ground around Stevenson takes in water at a moderate rate, so the usual base thickness is generally enough.
Crushed gravel is sold by the ton. A cubic yard weighs about 1.4 tons. For a 4-inch-deep driveway, you can roughly figure 1.4 tons per 100 square feet. For an exact number, use thematerial calculatorson the Gravel Monkey site. Enter your project dimensions and get an estimated tonnage that accounts for compaction.

Yes. Ground freezing here is real but moderate, so the base may need deeper preparation. Order early enough to compact the base before freeze-up, or wait until spring when the frost leaves the ground.
There are about 137 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. The well-drained soils around Stevenson help the site dry out after a storm, so you can often schedule a day or two after rain passes.
