Gravel in Granada, CO

Delivered prices change with material type, supplier, and season, so we can’t give a fixed current price here.

The quote will include material cost, any delivery fee, and available size or color options.

A full tri-axle dump typically carries about 10–15 tons (roughly 12–14 cubic yards), but costs depend on the price per ton, distance, and delivery fee. To estimate your cost multiply the supplier’s price-per-ton by the truck tons and add the delivery charge shown in your Hello Gravel quote. Contact our team for an itemized quote for a full-truckload to Granada.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, and standard delivery generally takes 2+ business days. Many areas have free delivery, but in rural parts of West Colorado delivery fees or fuel surcharges can apply; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. The exact fee for Granada will appear at checkout or on your quote.

Use this formula: Volume (cu yd) = (length ft × width ft × depth ft) ÷ 27. For depth of 2 inches (0.167 ft), a 12×40 driveway needs about 2.96 cu yd, which is roughly 4.5 tons using a working density of about 1.5 tons per cubic yard. Calculate your driveway area and plug into the formula, then round up to account for compaction and spreading loss.

Two inches is usually only a top dressing and is not recommended as the sole base for a driveway in Granada’s regional climate and freeze-thaw conditions. We recommend a compacted base of 4–6 inches of crushed rock or road base with a 1–2 inch wearing layer on top for long-term performance. Proper drainage and compaction are especially important in Colorado’s seasonal cycles.

Common choices in West Colorado include 3/4u0022 crushed stone or crushed rock, road base (compacted mix), and crusher fines for a tighter surface; pea gravel is chosen where appearance matters but performs less well under vehicle traffic. For Granada driveways, an angular crushed stone or road base topped with 1–2u0022 of crusher fines or 3/4u0022 crushed stone usually gives the best combination of drainage, compaction, and durability. Local suppliers can suggest mixes that reflect regional geology and color preferences.

Many local suppliers offer price breaks for larger quantities or full-truck orders, and Hello Gravel will show any available tiered pricing during quote generation. If you need several truckloads, request a bulk pricing review when you get your quote or speak with our sales team. Discounts depend on supplier inventory, distance, and seasonal demand.

Hello Gravel coordinates delivery scheduling through our platform and can set a delivery date at checkout or by speaking with our team. Some local suppliers or contractors may offer on-site assessments or detailed takeoffs for a fee or as part of a larger job; drivers may also assess access on arrival but cannot provide guaranteed spreading or measurements. Contact us to arrange scheduling or to request an on-site estimate from a local supplier.

Multiply the price per ton by the number of tons in a cubic yard; gravel typically ranges from about 1.4 to 1.7 tons per cubic yard depending on rock type and moisture. As a practical rule use 1.5 tons per cubic yard: price per cu yd ≈ price per ton × 1.5. When precise ordering matters, ask your Hello Gravel quote to state whether pricing is per ton or per cubic yard and which density they used.

Granada is a small town, but rules can vary by municipality, county, or HOA, so check with the Town of Granada, Prowers County, and any HOA before starting work. Permits may be required for driveway connections, curb cuts, or work in the public right-of-way, and local road weight or delivery access restrictions can affect truck routing and timing. Hello Gravel can coordinate deliveries, but it’s the customer’s responsibility to confirm permits and site access requirements.
