Gravel in Issaquah, WA

Delivered gravel prices in Issaquah vary by type and size, but a typical range for basic crushed gravel is about $35 to $65 per ton delivered. Decorative river rock or specialty aggregates can cost more. Final price depends on the exact product, delivery distance, and whether you need small-quantity delivery or spreading services; request a quote for an exact number.

In Issaquah's wet climate, angular crushed stone (for example 3/4" crushed rock) is a top choice because it locks together and sheds water while resisting rutting. Use a compacted base layer with crushed rock fines for stability, and a coarser top layer for drainage and traction. Avoid purely rounded river rock for driveways because it can shift and rut in heavy rain.

Use this quick method: cubic yards = area(ft2) * depth(in) / 324, and tons = cubic yards * 1.4 (typical weight). For a 100 sq ft area you would need about 0.86 tons at 2", 1.73 tons at 4", and 2.59 tons at 6". Always round up and add 5-10% for compaction and waste, and request a delivery quantity based on the rounded number.

Hello Gravel connects you to local Issaquah suppliers; many can deliver smaller loads but our minimum order is 3 tons, and actual supplier minimums may vary. Returns on bulk aggregates are uncommon because material is dumped and may be mixed on-site; return or refund policies depend on the supplier and order status. Contact our team before placing an order if you need a very small quantity or want to confirm return options.

Installation costs depend on site prep, access, slope, and drainage needs; expect base prep, compaction, and edging to add $2.00 to $6.00 per sq ft in labor and contractor fees, on top of material costs. A fully installed gravel driveway often falls in a rough range of $5.00 to $12.00 per sq ft total, but complex sites or erosion control measures can raise the price. Get local contractor estimates and factor in stormwater or drainage upgrades common in West Washington.

For slope stabilization and erosion control on Issaquah hillsides, use angular crushed rock with larger sizes (1" to 2") and place it in terraces or channels to slow runoff. River rock or cobbles work well in drainage swales and rock-lined channels where you need to dissipate energy. Pair gravel with geotextile fabric, retaining structures, or native plantings for the best long-term erosion control in our rainy climate.

Permits and HOA rules vary by neighborhood; some HOAs or city regulations limit driveway materials, curb cuts, or changes to impervious surface. Before starting work, check Issaquah municipal planning or public works for stormwater and driveway permit requirements and review your HOA covenants. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or the local planning department for guidance on common local restrictions.

Gravel driveways need regular maintenance: periodic grading, topping with fresh gravel, and addressing ruts or washouts after heavy rains. Expect topping or spot repairs every 3 to 7 years depending on traffic and drainage; well-maintained gravel can last decades but requires more upkeep than asphalt or concrete. Asphalt and concrete have higher upfront costs but typically need less frequent routine attention, although they may require costly repairs or replacement later.

Hello Gravel coordinates deliveries from local suppliers using dump trucks (typically tri-axle) with a minimum order of 3 tons and standard delivery of 2+ business days. Next-day delivery is available if you order before noon CST for an extra fee, and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed. Add placement notes at checkout, check access for large trucks, and contact our team if you have tight site constraints.

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.
