A useful rule: 1 ton of typical crushed gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards. That covers roughly 230 sq ft at 1 inch depth, about 115 sq ft at 2 inches, or about 77 sq ft at 3 inches.

For a long-term vehicle driveway in Brighton, 2 inches is generally too thin. Most residential driveways need 4 to 6 inches of compacted gravel over a prepared sub-base for good support and drainage. If you are covering a temporary parking area or a footpath, 2 inches may be adequate, but thicker sections are recommended for regular vehicle use.

Cost depends on width and depth. For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway (200 sq ft) at 4 inches deep you need about 3.5 tons of gravel; at a delivered price of $35 per ton that runs about $120 for material plus any delivery fee.

Ask your Hello Gravel rep for local suppliers that offer stabilized mixes or guidance on binding additives.
