Crusher run (also called dense grade) is often the cheapest and best-performing choice for driveways around Pikeville because it compacts well and provides a stable surface. Bank-run or local crushed base mixes can also be economical. Local avaIlability and regional geology affect price, so check Hello Gravel for nearby options.

Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway in Pikeville. For a long-lasting driveway you should plan on at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel for light-use areas and 4 to 6 inches or more for regular vehicle traffic. PRoper base preparation, compaction, and drainage are also essential for performance in our local climate.

Cost depends on driveway width, depth, and material choice; for a 20 ft by 10 ft single-car strip at 3 inches deep you would need about 2 cubic yards (~2.6 tons), while a 20 ft by 20 ft area needs about 3.7 cubic yards (~4.8 tons). At typical local per-ton prices, expect a ballpark of $150 to $500 for material only; delivery and spreading fees would add to that.

Ten cubic yards of gravel is roughly 12 to 14 tons depending on the material; prices vary by type but you might expect a total material cost in the range of $500 to $1,200.

Angular, crushed stone such as crusher run, #57 stone, or a compactable base mix is best for a stable driveway in Pikeville because the pieces lock together when compacted. Combine a pRoper base depth (4 to 6 inches for most driveways), good compaction, edge restraints, and drainage to minimize movement. If you need help picking a specific mix for local soils and rainfall patterns, contact Hello Gravel's team for recommendations.

Measure the length and width of the area in feet and decide on a depth in inches, then use the formula: (length x width x depth in feet) / 27 = cubic yards. Convert cubic yards to tons by multiplying by about 1.3 (this can vary with material). Or use Hello Gravel's material calculator to get a quick estimate and remember our 3-ton minimum on orders.
