Gravel
Pool decks, walkways, paver base, dog runs and landscape fill.
Small, rounded and smooth, the only stone on this list people actually walk on barefoot. River-run rather than crushed, so there are no sharp edges, which is why it ends up around pools and on garden paths.
Being rounded, it does not lock together the way angular stone does, so it stays loose and shifts underfoot. Lovely for a path, poor for a driveway. Edge it or it will migrate into the lawn.

How much to order
One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet. How far that goes depends entirely on how deep you are laying it.
| Depth | 1 cu yd covers | Yards per 500 sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| 2 in | 162 sq ft | 3.1 cu yd |
| 3 in | 108 sq ft | 4.6 cu yd |
| 4 in | 81 sq ft | 6.2 cu yd |
| 6 in | 54 sq ft | 9.3 cu yd |
| 12 in | 27 sq ft | 18.6 cu yd |
The arithmetic: length times width times depth, all in feet, divided by 27. A 40 by 20 ft area at 4 inches deep is 40 × 20 × 0.333 ÷ 27, which is about 9.9 cubic yards, so you order 10. Round up rather than down — coming up two yards short on a Friday costs a whole extra delivery.
