One ton of typical crushed gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards and will cover roughly 115 square feet at a 2-inch depth (about 231 sq ft at 1 inch, or 77 sq ft at 3 inches). Coverage varies by material density and how compacted the base is, so measure the depth you want and use our calculator for an exact figure.

For 1,000 sq ft, you need about 6.2 cubic yards (≈8.6 tons) at a 2-inch depth and about 9.3 cubic yards (≈13.0 tons) at a 3-inch depth. Local factors like compaction and regional material density can change those numbers slightly, so enter your zip code on Hello Gravel to get a tailored quantity and price.

Cost depends on driveway length, width, depth, and material. As an example, a 20 ft wide by 40 ft long driveway at 3-inch depth needs about 10.4 tons of gravel; at $40 per ton delivered, material would be about $416, with additional delivery or spreading fees possible. Use Hello Gravel to input your exact dimensions and pick a material for an accurate total.

Two inches of gravel is usually too thin for a driveway subject to vehicle traffic, especially in Ohio’s freeze-thaw conditions. We recommend at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted surface over a well-prepared base, and 4 to 6 inches total if the subgrade is soft or poorly draining, to prevent ruts and washouts.

Whether one ton fits depends on your truck’s payload capacity and bed size. A heavy-duty pickup may handle a ton, but many half-ton trucks are not rated for that much weight; always check your truck’s GVWR and payload rating before loading. Also note Hello Gravel’s minimum delivery is 3 tons, so pickup or local quarry pickup may be necessary for smaller amounts.

Locally sourced crushed limestone or recycled concrete is often the most economical option in West Ohio due to quarry availability. Prices vary by supplier and quality, so Hello Gravel’s marketplace can compare local options and show lower-cost choices for your project.

A properly installed gravel surface in St. Ow can last 10 to 20 years with routine maintenance like grading, topping up, and keeping good drainage. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy traffic, and poor drainage shorten the lifespan, so plan seasonal maintenance and occasional replenishment every few years.

A 7x14 dump trailer typically holds about 3.5 to 5 cubic yards of loose material, which is roughly 5 to 7 tons for dense gravel. Actual capacity depends on trailer sidewall height and the specific material density, so check your trailer’s rated capacity before loading.

A 10-cubic-yard truck at 2-inch depth covers about 1,620 sq ft (10 cy * 324 sq ft per cy at 1 inch / 2). In tons, a 10 cy load is roughly 14 tons and will cover the same area depending on depth; exact coverage changes with material type and compaction.

For a single-car driveway 40 feet long and 10 feet wide at a 3-inch depth you need about 3.7 cubic yards (≈5.2 tons). If you have a two-car width (20 feet), double that amount to roughly 7.4 cubic yards (≈10.4 tons). Use Hello Gravel’s calculator for precise quantities based on your exact width and desired depth.

The most economical approach is ordering in bulk from a local supplier and scheduling standard delivery through Hello Gravel to avoid rush fees. Choosing recycled or common regional materials, grouping deliveries if you have multiple projects, and ordering the supplier’s typical local blend also help reduce cost.

A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft. At a 3-inch depth you need about 3.7 cubic yards (≈5.2 tons); at $40 per ton delivered, material cost would be roughly $208, plus delivery and any spreading fees. Final price depends on material choice and local delivery; get a zip-code quote on Hello Gravel to confirm.

For a 10x10 area (100 sq ft), 2 inches of pea gravel requires about 0.62 cubic yards (≈0.9 tons). Because Hello Gravel’s minimum delivery is 3 tons, you can either pick up a small amount locally or order a larger quantity for nearby projects and save on per-ton delivered price.
