Buy Crushed Gravel in Butternut, Wisconsin

A load of crushed gravel is ordered online in Butternut by the ton. You pick the size and the day, and Gravel Monkey handles the truck and the drop. Butternut gets about 35 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you build a base.

Local Conditions in Butternut That Affect Your Crushed Gravel Job

Butternut sees about 190 days a year when the temperature drops below 32F. That long freeze cycle means the ground moves as it freezes and thaws. An unstable base shifts with the frost, which cracks drives and settles slabs. The ground freezing here is deep and long, so the base layer needs to be thick enough to resist that movement.

About 73 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, and soils mapped in the Butternut area are commonly moderately well drained. In dual hydrologic group C/D, where the ground is drained it takes water in slowly, and where it is not, most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.

You can get a close figure using the material calculators on the Gravel Monkey website.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Gravel in Butternut

How many wet days a year should I plan a crushed gravel delivery around in Butternut?

Butternut has about 73 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. You should schedule your delivery for a dry stretch so the truck can get onto firm ground. Wet conditions can make the access muddy and delay the job.

Does the ground in Butternut freeze hard enough to change when I should order?

Yes. About 190 days a year drop below 32F, and the ground freezing here is deep and long. That means you should order crushed gravel for base work in the warmer months, from late spring through fall, when the ground is not frozen. Working in a freeze can give you a poor base that shifts later.

Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?

Gravel Monkey delivers by dump truck to your address anywhere in the service area. Rural roads are fine as long as the site has a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. Enter your address at checkout to see if delivery is available.

What size crushed gravel should I choose?

The size depends on the job. For a compacted base under a drive or pad, 3/4" Crushed Gravel is the standard. For a fine top layer, use 3/8" Crushed Gravel. For deep fill or mud control, use 2"-3" Crushed Gravel. Check the product descriptions above for more detail.
