#57 gravel is mostly 3/8u0022 to 3/4u0022 crushed stone, commonly used for driveways and drainage. For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway: 2 inches of material is about 1.2 cubic yards (roughly 1.6 tons), 3 inches about 1.8 cubic yards (roughly 2.4 tons). Because our minimum order is 3 tons, you would typically order 3 tons for that size driveway in Parker Dam.

Two inches of top gravel is usually too thin as a standalone driveway surface and may shift in Parker Dam's desert conditions. A common approach is 3 to 4 inches of compacted top gravel over a 4 to 6 inch crusher-run or compacted base. For most home driveways in Parker Dam, plan on at least 3 tons (our minimum) for small driveways and more if you need a proper base layer.

Pea gravel can be used for low-traffic or decorative driveways, but it tends to migrate and is not ideal for regular vehicle traffic in Parker Dam. Hello Gravel can deliver pea gravel, but we do not guarantee installation — tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion. For a durable driveway, consider #57, 3/4u0022 crushed stone, or crusher-run instead.

Costs vary by material and supplier; a sample estimate for a 20 ft by 10 ft driveway (about 200 sq ft) using 3 inches of crushed stone might require about 2.4 tons, but you would order the 3-ton minimum. With material prices commonly in the $30 to $80 per ton range and delivery fees that depend on your exact location, expect a ballpark material + delivery cost from roughly $150 to $400; request a zip-code quote for a precise price.

A 50 lb bag holds about 0.5 cubic foot. To cover 100 sq ft at 2 inches depth you need about 17 bags (100*(2/12)=16.7 cu ft). For any project larger than a few dozen bags, bulk delivery is almost always more cost-effective in Parker Dam since our minimum order is 3 tons and bulk pricing and delivery lower the per-ton cost.

Materials that form a hard, stable surface include crusher-run mixes and gravel products blended with stabilizers or polymer binders. Hello Gravel can supply crusher-run and other stabilized mixes where available from local suppliers, but we do not provide full installation services; drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion. For full stabilization installation, hire a local contractor after you order materials.

Avoid pea gravel where you need stable, wheel-bearing surfaces or high-traffic driveways in Parker Dam, since it rolls and migrates. Better alternatives are #57 crushed stone, 3/4u0022 crushed rock, or crusher-run for the base with a coarser top layer; these provide stability and better drainage in the desert environment.

Prices fluctuate with supplier and season, but typical delivered ranges in the Parker Dam area might be: pea gravel $35 to $80 per ton, #57 crushed stone $30 to $80 per ton, crusher-run $25 to $60 per ton. A rough conversion is 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons for gravel, so multiply the per-ton price by about 1.3 to estimate per-cubic-yard cost; get a zip-code specific quote for exact pricing.
