Gravel in West Farmington, ME

Delivered gravel prices in West Farmington typically vary by material, quarry distance, and seasonal demand. Expect a rough range of $40 to $90 per ton delivered, with one cubic yard of gravel weighing about 1.4 tons (so roughly $56 to $126 per cubic yard). A typical tri-axle truckload carries about 10 to 12 tons; exact pricing is shown at checkout or in your quote.

Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons in most areas, and standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days. Next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and delivery fees vary by supplier and distance; some deliveries in the immediate Farmington area may have free delivery while rural drops can incur additional charges. Final fees and lead times are shown at checkout or on your order confirmation.

We commonly deliver to rural and narrow properties around West Farmington, but access is evaluated case by case. Drivers will assess safety on arrival and may refuse offloading in unsafe situations; extra fees can apply for long carries, steep/rough access, or when a spotter or special offload location is needed. To reduce surprises, add photos and clear directions in Order Notes or call our team before ordering so we can advise on potential access charges.

For driveways use a compactible base like 3/4u0022 minus (crusher run) for the foundation and a 3/8u0022 to 3/4u0022 crushed stone or pea gravel for the wearing surface. For drainage and French drains, use clean 1u0022 to 2u0022 washed stone (no fines) to promote flow. Landscaping often uses 3/8u0022 pea gravel or 1u0022 to 2u0022 river rock for decoration; washed or specialty decorative stones cost more than common crushed stone, so expect higher per-ton pricing for washed/landscape material versus base rock.

A typical 2-car driveway (about 12 ft by 40 ft) needs roughly 6 cubic yards for a 4u0022 surface layer or about 15 cubic yards if you include a 6u0022 compacted base plus a 2u0022 surface layer. Using 1.4 tons per cubic yard, that equals about 8 to 21 tons depending on whether you are adding a base. A 3-car driveway (about 20 ft by 50 ft) can need roughly 12 to 30 cubic yards (about 17 to 42 tons) depending on depth and base; use our material calculator or share your exact dimensions for a tailored estimate.

Some local suppliers and independent contractors in western Maine offer spreading, grading, and compaction, but driver tailgate spreading is only available at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. Full spreading, grading, and compaction are usually arranged as an additional service and are priced per job — costs commonly range from modest fees for simple tailgate work to several hundred dollars for full grading and compaction depending on scope. If you need spreading or machine work, request it at checkout and contact our team for contractor referrals and quotes.

Yes. Many Maine towns restrict heavy truck traffic during spring thaw (mud season) and conditions can also affect winter delivery. These restrictions can change routing, require permits, or result in additional fees for alternate delivery methods, access work, or rescheduling. We recommend checking local road rules and contacting our team before ordering in late winter or spring to confirm availability and potential extra costs.
