Buy Crushed Stone in Stevenson, Washington

Many buyers pick crushed stone by eye without matching the size to the project. The right choice depends on whether you need a structural base or a finished surface.

Stevenson gets about 83 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when selecting a crushed stone product.

Crushed Stone Sizes for Stevenson Projects

Crushed stone in Stevenson splits into two categories: base materials for structural support and finish materials for a compacted surface. The table below lists every size we deliver, what each is meant for, and a note to help you decide.

Choosing Crushed Stone for Common Jobs

For a long-lasting installation, match the crushed stone to the project's budget and lifespan. The following table compares five common jobs.

How Stevenson's Climate and Soils Affect Your Crushed Stone Job

Stevenson sits in the Columbia River Gorge, a region known for heavy rainfall. About 137 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling a crushed stone delivery onto firm ground is important to avoid rutting.

The region sees about 92 freezing days annually, causing the ground to heave and settle during freeze-thaw cycles. Compaction prevents base shifting. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.

Soils mapped in the Stevenson area are commonly well drained, which means you may need less base stone under the surface layer than in areas with slow-draining clay. The ground around Stevenson takes water in at a moderate rate, so standard base depth is usually enough for most projects.

How Much Crushed Stone You Need

To estimate the tons of crushed stone you need, measure the length, width, and desired depth of your area in feet. Multiply them to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 for cubic yards. Use our crushed stone calculator for a precise number based on your project dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the smallest load of crushed stone you deliver to Stevenson?

The smallest load is one ton. You can order from one ton up to 40 tons or more on a single dump truck delivery.

Does the soil around Stevenson change how much crushed stone I need?

Yes. Soils mapped in the Stevenson area are commonly well drained, so you may need less base stone than in areas with slow-draining clay. The moderate infiltration rate here means a standard base depth is usually enough.

What size crushed stone should I choose?

The size depends on the project. For a base under a driveway, 3/4" Crushed Stone or 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone works well. For a paver setting bed, use 3/8" Crushed Stone or #10 Screenings. For drainage, #57 or #67 stone is common.

Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?

Yes. Gravel Monkey delivers to any address in the service area, including rural routes and county roads. Just provide the correct address and ensure the site has a 12-foot-wide access for the truck.
