Gravel in Clarkston, WA

For Clarkston driveways, 3/4" crushed rock or 3/4" minus (crusher run) are the most common because they lock together and compact well for driving surfaces. For decorative beds and pathways, pea gravel (1/4"), 3/8" rounded gravel, or 1/2" river rock give different looks; rounded stone drains well but does not compact. Choose angular crushed stone for load-bearing areas and rounded gravels for decoration, and note that regional suppliers may offer slightly different rock colors and textures due to local geology.

Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order; standard delivery is scheduled 2+ business days and many areas offer free delivery, but fees may apply depending on distance and site access. Dump trucks used are typically tri-axle and need room to turn and for safe dumping; tight driveways, low-hanging wires, or narrow rural lanes can lead to additional fees or require smaller trucks. Tell us about access at checkout and our team will note special instructions; for large or complicated drops, check local street weight limits and private road rules first.

Local prices vary by rock type, season, and supplier, but as a rough range expect decorative gravels to run higher than base rock. Typical delivered price ranges for the region are often between $30 and $70 per ton depending on size and type, and roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard depending on moisture and rock density. These are estimates only; get a firm delivered price and availability by checking your zip code on our site or requesting a quote.

Gravel weight and volume depend on rock type and moisture, but a practical conversion to use for ordering is about 1.3 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. One cubic yard is 0.7646 cubic meters, so one cubic meter is about 1.31 cubic yards. When in doubt, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or ask our team for a site-specific estimate so you order the right amount.

For a general-purpose concrete mix, an approximate blend by weight for 1 cubic meter is about 300-350 kg cement, 600-700 kg sand (fine aggregate), and 1,000-1,200 kg coarse aggregate (gravel), with about 150-180 kg water. These are approximate values and depend on the desired strength and workability; contractors typically design mixes to spec. For structural or engineered work, get a certified mix design from a ready-mix supplier or engineer rather than using a generic recipe.

For flagstone and pavers in Clarkston, start with a compacted 4-6" layer of crushed rock or crusher run as the structural base, followed by a 1-2" bedding layer of coarse sand or screened 3/8" gravel for leveling. Because Clarkston experiences freeze-thaw cycles, use well-draining, angular aggregates and compact the base in lifts to reduce frost heave. Edge restraints and proper slope for drainage are also important to prevent shifting during wet or freezing seasons.

Some local suppliers and contractors in the Clarkston area offer spreading and compaction for an extra charge, but availability varies and Hello Gravel cannot guarantee these services through our basic delivery. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout and the driver will assess it on arrival, but spreading is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. If you need full installation, ask us for local contractor recommendations or a bundled quote including labor and compaction.

Clarkston sees cold winters with freeze-thaw events that can cause fine materials to wash or heave if drainage and compaction are poor. Use angular, well-draining gravel and a properly compacted base to reduce movement, and avoid installing base layers when the ground is frozen or saturated. For planting beds, choose gravel or mixes that allow water to pass through and avoid placing fine dust-rich materials where frost heave is a concern.

Most residential deliveries are routine, but very large loads or deliveries on narrow or private roads may require local permits, route approvals, or weight limits from the city or county. Clarkston homeowners should check with the City of Clarkston Public Works or Asotin County for specific weight restrictions, HOA rules, or culvert capacity issues before scheduling very large deliveries. If in doubt, tell us the delivery address and any access restrictions when you order so we can confirm truck suitability and note potential extra fees.

Common estimates: a 2-car driveway resurfacing typically needs 10-20 tons depending on depth, a 4" layer over a 10x10 ft patio is about 1.5-2 tons, and a 1" decorative top dressing over a 100 sq ft area needs roughly 1-1.5 tons. Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is often available if you order before noon CST; avoid scheduling major installations during frozen ground or heavy rain seasons when compaction and drainage are compromised. Use our material calculator or contact our sales team with project dimensions for an exact estimate.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
