Gravel in Cordell, OK

Gravel prices in the Cordell area vary by type (crushed limestone, crusher run, pea gravel, decorative) and local supply, but expect a rough ballpark of low-to-mid price ranges versus high-end decorative stones. A useful conversion: 1 cubic yard of gravel is about 1.3 tons, so compare quotes accordingly. For exact pricing, check Hello Gravel for a zip-code quote since regional sourcing and delivery affect final price.

For Cordell’s hot, dry climate and common clay soils, crushed limestone or crusher run are good choices because they compact well and lock together to resist movement. Crushed granite also performs well for durability, while pea gravel and rounded decorative rock look nice but are more prone to shifting on clay and high slopes. If drainage or washout is a concern, use an angular crushed product and consider a geotextile underlay or proper grading.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees vary by distance and supplier; many areas have free delivery or modest fees, while remote or long-haul drops may add $50-$150. Truck type will typically be a dump truck (tri-axle); request delivery details at checkout and add delivery notes if you need tight-access instructions.

Use 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons as a rule of thumb. For a 1-car (10'x20') driveway at 4" depth you need about 2.5 cu yd (≈3.2 tons); for a 2-car (20'x20') at 4" depth you need about 5 cu yd (≈6.4 tons). For a longer rural driveway (12' x 100') at 4" depth you need about 15 cu yd (≈19.5 tons); for heavy-use rural drives consider 6"–8" depth, which increases quantities proportionally.

A well-built gravel driveway in West Oklahoma can perform for many years but requires periodic maintenance: regrading and filling potholes typically every 1–3 years depending on traffic and weather. Hot, dry summers and clay soils can cause washboarding and localized ruts, so expect to add a light top-up (1–2 inches) every few years and to regrade after heavy storms or seasonal freeze-thaw events. Proper drainage and a stable base greatly extend life and reduce how often you need to add material.

Common maintenance tasks are regrading the surface with a box blade or grader, filling low spots and potholes with angular stone, periodic compaction with a roller or vibratory plate, and keeping ditches and culverts clear to prevent washouts. Adding a fresh 1–2 inch layer every few years and spot-replacing fines in high-traffic areas will help. In clay soil areas, installing a geotextile fabric before stone and creating a crowned surface for drainage are especially helpful.

Contractor costs vary with scope: simple spreading and compaction of delivered gravel can be a lower-rate job, while full installs (grading, sub-base, fabric, drainage) cost more. As a rough guide, expect local contractor bids around $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for complete installs in smaller projects, meaning a standard 20' x 40' driveway could run roughly $1,200 to $3,200 depending on prep work and materials. Get at least two local quotes and confirm whether the price includes materials delivery and compaction.

Mixtures with angular particles and fines—such as crusher run or 3/4" minus crushed stone—tend to lock together and resist washout better than round pea gravel. A good structural section includes a well-compacted subgrade, geotextile fabric where needed, a compacted base layer of larger crushed stone, and a wearing course of crusher run. Proper slope, crown, and drainage features (ditches, culverts) are as important as the mix to prevent potholes in Washita County conditions.

Decorative gravels are available in and around West Oklahoma, but availability and color options will reflect regional stone and may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Expect a price premium for washed, colored, or rounded decorative stone because of extra processing and transport, and plan for longer lead times if a specific color or size is required. Ask Hello Gravel to check local supplier inventories and request samples or photos in Order Notes before delivery.

Gravel has a lower upfront cost than asphalt or concrete and offers excellent drainage, which is helpful on Cordell’s clay soils, but it requires more frequent maintenance like regrading and occasional replenishment. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially and are more low-maintenance long term; they provide a smoother, more permanent surface but can have drainage and cracking issues on expansive clay if not properly engineered. For rural low-traffic driveways in Cordell, gravel is often the most practical balance of cost and drainage; for high-traffic or curbside curb appeal, consider paving with professional site prep.

Cordell is a small town and rules can vary by neighborhood, so check with the City of Cordell planning or public works office and any homeowners association before installing a driveway or large front-yard gravel area. Local regulations may address driveway curb cuts, drainage, and ditch/roadway work; HOAs may have aesthetic rules about visible rock types and front-yard coverings. When in doubt, request guidance from the city or your HOA and note any permit requirements when planning delivery and installation.
