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







You order gravel and rock here by the ton, online, and a dump truck brings it to your address in Kingwood. Kingwood gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so every surface that sheds water needs a plan for drainage and washout.
The load runs from one ton up to forty-plus tons. Your total shows up at checkout once the system prices delivery by ZIP, and first orders take $50 off with code FIRSTTIMER50.
Each product below suits a different job, and none is a universal fill. The table shows what each one is for, along with a note on what it is not good for.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas, patios | Rounded and smooth, so it wanders underfoot; not for a firm base or a slope. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Decorative but too round to lock together; do not use where you need compaction. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Good on moderate slopes but does not pack; not for a walkway surface. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Angular, clean, and designed for water flow; not a top dressing. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Compacts into a hard surface but does not handle heavy truck traffic; not a road base. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Contains fines so it locks tight; not a decorative surface. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Engineered for load-bearing; not for a garden bed or path. |
The table below pairs typical projects with the right product and a starting depth suggestion. Every site differs, so treat these as a guide.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| French drain | Drain Rock | 12 inches in the trench, wrapped in fabric |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock or 2-4" River Rock | 4 to 6 inches over landscape fabric |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock | 6 to 8 inches, keyed into the slope |
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite | 4 inches compacted over a crusher run base |
| Landscape beds | River Rock | 2 to 3 inches over weed barrier |
Kingwood sees about 51 inches of precipitation per year, so runoff and drainage have to be part of the plan. Around 111 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which means you need to schedule delivery onto firm ground rather than mud. The ground around Kingwood sits in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; a deeper drainage layer earns its place under any surface that needs to stay dry.
Freezing temperatures hit on about 127 days a year, and the ground freezing here is real but moderate. That freeze-thaw cycle shifts the ground under a loose surface, which is why the base layer needs to go deep enough to ride out the movement. Snowfall runs about 57 inches a year, and plowing a loose gravel or rock surface can damage it if the base is not there. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
Volume varies with the project depth and the shape of the area. Cover a measured space at a given depth, and the weight comes from the material density. Use the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey site to turn your square footage and depth into an approximate tonnage.
You order online by the ton, and delivery is priced by ZIP at checkout. Loads run from one ton to over forty tons, and qualifying orders ship free. First orders take $50 off with the code FIRSTTIMER50.
The delivery date you choose at checkout must be at least 3 business days after the order date. You pick a window: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. You get an email confirmation when the order is placed, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. You must be available during the window, or have someone you nominate at the site. If the delivery cannot be completed because of blocked access or nobody being there, a redelivery fee can apply.

Pair your gravel and rock order with these related materials for a complete job.
Yes. About 127 days a year drop below 32F, and the freeze-thaw cycle moves the ground. That makes the base layer depth more important than it would be in a milder climate. A deeper first lift of crusher run or road base helps keep the finished surface stable through winter.
Yes. Kingwood gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, and about 111 days bring measurable rain. Water needs a path away from any gravel or rock surface. Drain rock in a French drain or a deeper drainage layer under a compacted surface earns its place here.
No. You agree to be available or to have someone you nominate at the site during the delivery window. If nobody is there, the delivery cannot be completed, and a missed delivery or redelivery fee can apply.
The delivery date you choose at checkout must be at least 3 business days after the order date. Ordering a few days beyond that minimum gives you room to confirm site access and to approve the second confirmation email that schedules the load.
