Gravel in Ada, OK

Typical prices in the Ada area vary by type and supplier. For common driveway gravel expect roughly $25-$40 per ton (about $35-$56 per cubic yard using 1 cubic yard = 1.4 tons). Crushed stone or specialty decorative gravels often run higher, about $35-$60 per ton ($49-$84 per cubic yard). Regional sourcing and seasonal demand cause price variation, so get a local quote for an exact price.

A standard tri-axle truckload in this region commonly carries about 12-14 tons. Material cost for that truckload typically runs $300-$840 depending on the gravel type, plus delivery fees that often range from $0-$150 in town (higher for rural or long hauls), giving a delivered range around $300-$1,000. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and offers free delivery in many areas, but final delivery fees are shown at checkout.

For a 100-foot driveway, common assumptions are 12 feet wide and 3 inches of gravel for a surface layer. That requires about 100 ft x 12 ft x 0.25 ft = 300 cubic feet, or 11.1 cubic yards (about 15.5 tons). Materials only typically cost $390-$930 for that quantity in Ada, depending on gravel type (using $25-$60 per ton as a guide). If you want a deeper 4-inch base, multiply quantities by 4/3 and the cost increases accordingly.

Installed prices vary with site prep. For a straightforward 100 ft x 12 ft driveway with modest grading, expect $1,500-$6,000 total; simple installs with minimal grading are toward the low end, extensive grading, drainage work, or base rock increases cost. Get local contractor quotes since equipment access, driveway slope, and soil conditions in Ada affect labor and grading charges.

One acre at 4 inches deep is about 538 cubic yards, which equals roughly 754 tons (using 1 cubic yard = 1.4 tons). At typical Ada-area rates of $25-$45 per ton, material cost would be approximately $18,850-$33,930. Large orders often get better pricing, so contact Hello Gravel for a tailored bulk quote.

Budget depends on driveway length, width, and how much site prep is required. For a basic driveway with moderate clearing and grading expect $2,500-$10,000; if the site needs heavy tree removal, retaining walls, culverts, or extensive grading, costs can climb to $10,000-$30,000. Get an on-site estimate from local contractors and include material delivery costs—Hello Gravel can quote materials and delivery separately to help plan your budget.

Driveway or bank-run gravel (mixed sizes) is usually the least expensive option, often $25-$40 per ton in West Oklahoma. Crushed stone (uniform, angular 3/4u0022 or 1u0022) and washed decorative gravels cost more, typically $35-$60 per ton, because of production and screening. Pea gravel and river rock are usually the priciest due to sorting and hauling, so pick the type based on function (drainage vs. compaction vs. appearance) as well as price.

Yes, Hello Gravel partners with local haulers that deliver to rural Ada-area addresses, but access limitations may apply (narrow lanes, low-clearance bridges, or long drives). Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days; next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Rural deliveries can incur additional remote delivery charges, which will appear at checkout or in your quote.

Yes, larger orders frequently qualify for volume pricing and contractor rates with local suppliers in the West Oklahoma network. Hello Gravel handles these negotiations and can provide tiered pricing for big jobs—contact our sales team with project size to get a custom quote. Keep in mind minimums and delivery logistics can affect the final per-ton price.

Most gravel driveways benefit from spot topping or light regrading every 1-3 years, with major regrades or replenishment every 3-5 years depending on traffic and weather. A routine top-up is often 1-3 tons (materials only $25-$180 delivered locally), while professional regrading could cost several hundred dollars in labor plus material. Good drainage and periodic grading reduce material needs and overall maintenance costs.

Dump trucks used for delivery are typically tri-axle and require a clear turning radius, level ground, and room to dump; narrow driveways, low branches, or soft shoulders may prevent direct delivery. Tailgate spreading can sometimes be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. If access is tight, note specifics in Order Notes and our team will coordinate with the hauler before delivery.
