Stone in Houston, MO

Prices vary by supplier and stone type, but in West Missouri a delivered 10-yard load (about 10 cubic yards or roughly 14 tons of crushed stone) commonly ranges from about $700 to $1,300. Exact cost depends on the stone size, local supplier rates, and delivery distance; check your zip code for a precise quote.

A typical tri-axle dump truck in our network carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of stone (roughly 14 to 17 tons). Delivered and dumped prices often fall in the same per-ton ranges as other loads, so expect a delivered full truckload to commonly cost between $700 and $1,400 depending on material and site access.

Fifteen tons of stone is about one full truckload plus a little extra; material and delivery will typically run in the range of $750 to $1,350 in West Missouri. Tailgate spreading is performed at the driver’s discretion and may incur an extra fee or labor charge; if you need guaranteed spreading with equipment, plan for additional labor or contractor costs.

Products that behave like a hard base include crusher-run (also called compacted base) and polymer-stabilized aggregates when available locally. Crusher-run is a mix of stone and fines that compacts into a firm surface and is widely used for driveways and bases; polymer-treated options may be available through local suppliers but availability varies by region.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; delivery fees depend on distance, supplier, and load size, so some areas may have free delivery while others will have a charge. Check your zip code or contact our team for exact availability and pricing.

A 20 ft x 24 ft driveway at 4 inches deep needs about 6 cubic yards (480 sq ft x 0.333 ft = 160 cu ft = 5.9 yd3), which is roughly 8.5 to 9.5 tons of crushed stone. Round up for compaction and waste and order about 10 tons; at typical West Missouri delivered rates that will commonly cost between $500 and $900 depending on stone type and delivery.

Hello Gravel coordinates delivery via local haulers; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed. For full spreading and grading with equipment (skid steer, bobcat, or plate compactor), expect separate labor/equipment charges typically ranging from about $75 to $200 per hour depending on local contractors and job complexity; ask our team if you want help quoting placement services.

Yes. Loose decorative stone (pea gravel, 3/4-inch decorative) is usually priced by the ton and can be cheaper per ton than specially graded compacted base, but compacted crusher-run or base stone is often recommended for driveways because it compacts into a stable surface. For a driveway we typically recommend a compacted base (crusher-run) under a decorative top layer if you want both stability and appearance.

Same-week delivery is often possible depending on supplier inventory and schedule; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Placement (spreading/compacting) is separate and may require a contractor; expedited delivery and placement fees depend on supplier availability and distance—contact our team with your zip code and desired date for a firm quote.

Yes, many local suppliers offer volume pricing for larger orders. Orders of multiple truckloads (usually starting around 20 to 30 tons or more) often receive discounted per-ton rates; contact Hello Gravel sales for a custom multi-load quote and estimated savings.
