Gravel in Springerville, AZ

Prices vary by supplier and exact material, but expect roughly $30 to $80 per ton delivered in rural Springerville (pop. 1,900). Remote location, material type (pit gravel vs crushed), and delivery distance affect cost, so we recommend checking your zip code for an exact Hello Gravel quote. Minimum orders start at 3 tons.

A full tri-axle dump truck typically carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards (roughly 12 to 18 tons depending on the rock). Delivered cost for a full truck to Springerville will commonly range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on material and haul distance, so request a quote for a precise price. Hello Gravel handles the coordination and can provide delivered pricing once you enter your address.

Using a typical truckload of 10 to 14 cubic yards: at 2 inches deep you can expect about 1,400 to 2,200 square feet of coverage, and at 4 inches about 700 to 1,100 square feet. Exact coverage depends on the truck size and how compacted the material will be, so check the cubic yards on your quote to calculate more precisely. Use 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet to convert for different depths.

No, 2 inches of gravel is generally not enough for a durable driveway in Springerville, which experiences freeze-thaw and seasonal moisture. For a long-lasting driveway we recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of angular crushed rock plus a 2-3 inch wearing course of surface gravel. Proper drainage and compaction are essential in high-elevation areas to prevent rutting and washout.

Costs depend on the driveway width and desired depth; for example, a 20-foot by 10-foot driveway at 3 inches deep is about 50 cubic feet (0.62 cubic yards) and will need roughly 0.8 to 1.0 ton of gravel. Material plus delivery for that small area will often fall within Hello Gravel’s minimum order cost (3 tons), so expect to pay for at least 3 tons delivered—estimate local delivered prices to determine the total. For a precise cost, enter your address for a delivered quote and select the depth and material you want.

Pit gravel (rounded stones) is usually less expensive than crushed rock because it requires less processing, while crushed rock (angular) typically costs more per ton for better compaction and stability. The difference is commonly in the range of about $5 to $20 per ton depending on local availability and quarry location. Because Springerville sources regionally, price spread will vary, so ask Hello Gravel for a side-by-side quote on both materials.

Generally a gravel driveway is significantly cheaper in materials and labor than a concrete slab; DIY gravel can be installed for a fraction of concrete costs. Installed concrete in rural Arizona often runs several times the cost per square foot of a decent gravel installation when you include site prep, forming, reinforcement, and labor. Consider lifetime maintenance and local freeze-thaw cycles: gravel requires periodic topping and grading while concrete needs proper sub-base and may require repairs if it shifts.

Yes, there are regional suppliers and quarries that serve Springerville, but availability and exact sources vary by material type. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers in your area and the platform's minimum order is 3 tons; some suppliers may have larger minimums for remote deliveries. Enter your zip code to see delivery options, specific suppliers, and any minimum order or truck size information for your address.

For Springerville’s elevation and freeze-thaw conditions we recommend an angular crushed base (3/4u0022 minus or similar) compacted 4-6 inches, topped with a 2-3 inch layer of 3/8u0022 to 1/2u0022 crushed or washed gravel for a stable wearing surface. To estimate quantity: 1 cubic yard covers about 162 sq ft at 2 inches depth, so calculate area x depth to determine cubic yards, then convert to tons using the density on your quote. If you are unsure, request a material calculator or a Hello Gravel quote and we’ll help size the order.
