Buy Driveway Gravel in Butternut, Wisconsin

A common mistake is ordering the same gravel for every part of the driveway. Butternut gets about 103 inches of snow a year, and plowing can damage a loose top layer. The fix is to match each layer to its job.

You need a coarse base stone that drains well and a tight top stone that locks together. Gravel Monkey ships driveway gravel to Butternut by the ton, so you order exactly what goes down first and what finishes the surface.

Driveway Gravel Sizes for Butternut

Driveway gravel comes in two groups: base stone that supports the load and top stone that creates a smooth, stable surface. For Butternut driveways, you typically use a larger stone underneath and a smaller stone on top.

For many jobs, you have a choice between a quick fix and a more permanent solution. The table below shows what to order for each project.

Butternut Weather and Soil: What It Means for Your Driveway

Butternut averages 35 inches of precipitation per year, so planning for drainage and washout is important. The soil around Butternut is typically moderately well drained. That means the ground may require a thicker base layer than a poorly drained site would.

The area sees about 190 days a year with temperatures below 32F. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. In addition, the soil water group is C/D, which means that where the soil is drained, it takes water slowly and sheds runoff, and where it is not drained, most rain runs off. Proper drainage and a deeper base are critical.

Estimating How Much Driveway Gravel You Need

The amount of driveway gravel you need depends on the area, the depth, and the material's weight per cubic yard. Instead of guessing, use the driveway gravel calculator to get a tonnage estimate. Enter your dimensions and the calculator tells you how many tons to order.
