Gravel in Ione, WA

Coverage depends on depth and rock type, but as a rule of thumb in Ione one ton of typical crushed gravel covers about 100 to 120 sq ft at a 2-inch depth. Gravel density and compaction vary by local source, so use our material calculator or request a quote for a precise estimate.

A ton of gravel in the Ione area is roughly 0.6 to 0.8 cubic yards depending on rock type and moisture. Local materials from West Washington suppliers may be heavier or lighter, so we recommend confirming the cubic-yard conversion when you order.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover about 162 sq ft at 2 inches or about 108 sq ft at 3 inches. For driveways and heavier-use surfaces you will likely need 3 to 6 inches, so plan quantities accordingly.

One ton of pea gravel is about 0.6 to 0.8 cubic yards and will cover roughly 100 to 120 sq ft at a 2-inch depth. Pea gravel often costs more than angular crushed stone; check Hello Gravel for local supplier prices and remember our minimum order is 3 tons.

A standard tri-axle dump truck used by our suppliers typically carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards, which at 2 inches of depth covers roughly 1,600 to 2,268 sq ft. Exact truck capacity and delivered volume vary by hauler, so your delivery confirmation will list the expected yards or tons.

Estimate area (length x width) and decide on depth first; for example, a 20 ft by 10 ft driveway at 3 inches needs about 1.85 cubic yards (roughly 2 to 3 tons). Material cost depends on gravel type and delivery; use Hello Gravel's calculator or request a quote to get an accurate material and delivery price for Ione.

Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see vehicle traffic; we recommend at least 4 inches for passenger cars and 6 inches for heavier loads, with a compacted base layer beneath. Local frost, freeze-thaw cycles, and soil conditions around Ione can affect performance, so plan for a thicker base in low spots.

Ordering in bulk from a local supplier through Hello Gravel usually gives the best per-ton price, and choosing locally sourced common mixes reduces hauling costs. Also consider flexible delivery dates to avoid rush fees and request a quote to compare material options like crusher run or subbase.

It depends on your truck bed and payload capacity; one cubic yard is 27 cubic feet and weighs roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons, so many full-size pickups can carry the volume but not necessarily the full weight safely. Check your truck's payload rating before hauling, or consider having gravel professionally delivered since Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and drivers use dump trucks.

With proper installation and occasional maintenance, gravel surfaces in and around Ione can last 10 to 30 years; longevity depends on traffic, drainage, and how well the base is prepared. Expect to add fresh top-up gravel every few years to address thinning, migration, and ruts from local weather and use.

A 7x14 bed with 12-inch sides holds about 3.6 cubic yards by volume, while taller sides increase that number, but payload weight is the limiting factor. Because gravel is heavy, most 7x14 trailers can safely carry only about 1.5 to 3.5 cubic yards depending on trailer rating and local regulations, so check your trailer's payload before loading.

Pea gravel looks attractive and drains well, but it shifts easily, can be uncomfortable to walk on, and may migrate into lawns or garden beds, especially after heavy rain. It also compacts less than angular crushed stone, so it's not the best choice for high-traffic driveways without edging and regular maintenance.

Locally common, unwashed mixes like crusher run or pit-run gravel tend to be the most economical options because they are widely available and require less processing. Prices vary by supplier and distance, so use Hello Gravel to compare local options and get a delivery quote for your zip code.

One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet, and a typical wheelbarrow holds about 3 to 4 cubic feet, so expect roughly 7 to 9 wheelbarrow loads for one cubic yard. The exact number depends on your wheelbarrow size and how full you load each trip.

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