How much gravel do I need?

Measure the area in feet and pick a depth in inches. Paths and patios usually take 2 to 3 inches; a driveway topping goes about 4 inches over a compacted base.

Length (ft) × Width (ft) × Depth (in) ÷ 300 = cubic yards

DepthOne cubic yard covers about
2 inches150 sq ft
3 inches100 sq ft
4 inches75 sq ft

Example: a 4 × 30 ft path at 3 inches is 120 × 3 ÷ 300 = 1.2, so order 1½ cubic yards.

Questions about gravel

What is the best gravel for a driveway?

Lay compacted base first, then top it with ¾" crushed limestone. The angular pieces lock together and hold up under tires. Pea gravel is round and rolls, so it works better on paths and patios than on driveways.

What is pea gravel used for?

Pea gravel is ⅜" smooth, rounded river gravel. It is popular for paths, patios, dog runs, between stepping stones and around downspouts. It stays loose and is comfortable to walk on.

What is the difference between pea gravel and crushed granite?

Pea gravel is round and stays loose. Crushed granite, also called decomposed granite, runs from ½" down to dust, so it packs into a firm, flat surface for walkways and patios.
