Stone in Richmond, OH

In Richmond and West Ohio, expect crushed stone prices roughly in the range of $30 to $70 per ton before delivery, depending on size and whether it is decorative or crusher-run. Local geology and supplier stock can change pricing, so check Hello Gravel for zip-code specific quotes and exact pricing.

One ton of crushed stone typically covers about 100 to 120 sq ft at 2 inches deep, and about 50 to 60 sq ft at 4 inches deep, depending on the stone size and compaction. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator for a precise estimate based on the exact stone you choose.

Ohio prices are similar across the region, but local suppliers in Richmond may be slightly higher or lower due to haul distance and available material. For the most accurate per-ton price for your Richmond address, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel to see supplier-specific rates and delivery fees.

The most affordable options in our region are usually crusher-run (also called dense grade aggregate) or locally screened bank gravel and recycled crushed concrete. These choices are great for base layers and utility driveways; decorative stones and washed pea gravel cost more.

A standard tri-axle dump truck used by Hello Gravel typically delivers about 10 to 16 tons (roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards) of stone.

A rough estimate: a 100 ft driveway at 10 ft wide (1,000 sq ft) at 4 inches deep needs about 12 to 13 cubic yards or about 16 to 18 tons of stone. At $40 per ton for material, that’s about $640 to $720 in stone, plus delivery and any spreading fees—use Hello Gravel’s calculator for a site-specific quote.

Two inches is usually too shallow for a driveway in Richmond, where freeze-thaw and traffic can cause rutting. We recommend at least 3 to 4 inches for light residential use and 6 inches or more for regular heavy vehicles, with a compacted base layer beneath for best longevity.

Typical tri-axle dump trucks that serve Richmond on Hello Gravel orders carry about 10 to 16 tons of stone per load. Larger end-dumps are available in some areas, but check your delivery listing at checkout for the exact truck capacity and any placement limits.

For a 10 ft by 10 ft area at 2 inches deep you need roughly 0.6 cubic yards, which is about 0.8 to 1 ton of crushed stone. Remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, so plan accordingly or combine small jobs to meet the minimum.

A ton of stone weighs about 2,000 lbs, so whether it fits depends on your truck’s payload rating; many full-size pickups can carry close to a ton, but some compact trucks cannot. Hello Gravel delivers by dump truck with a 3-ton minimum, so pickup hauling usually isn’t part of our standard delivery service.

Price for a full dump truck varies with stone type and local supply; expect a rough material-and-delivery range of a few hundred to over a thousand dollars for a typical 10-16 ton truckload. The exact quote for Richmond is shown in your Hello Gravel checkout after you enter the material and delivery zip code.

A properly installed and maintained stone surface can last many years—often 10 to 20+ years—though periodic top-ups and regrading are normal as stones migrate and settle. Richmond’s seasonal freeze-thaw and rainfall can cause some washout, so plan occasional maintenance and good drainage.

A common choice is 3/4-inch crushed stone (often sold as '57 stone') for surface layers, with a coarser base like 1-1.5 inch crusher-run underneath for strength. Local suppliers in West Ohio may use slightly different names, so ask for 3/4-inch surface stone or a driveway mix when ordering through Hello Gravel.

To lower cost, pick a locally sourced standard crusher-run or bank gravel, schedule standard (2+ business day) delivery, and order larger quantities to reduce per-ton price. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers and get a bundled delivery quote that includes the truck and material cost.
