Gravel delivery in Cedar Hills, UT

Yes, you can put gravel over dirt, but proper prep improves results. Remove vegetation, grade for drainage, and compact the soil first; add a geotextile fabric on slopes or clay soils common around Cedar Hills. For walkways aim for 2-3 inches of compacted gravel, and for driveways plan 4-6 inches over a compacted base.

We require 2 business days for delivery as a standard timeframe. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee applies), but local supplier availability, weather, and driveway access can affect timing so schedule ahead when possible.

Gravel is typically delivered by contracted dump trucks (often tri-axle) that offload material in a single drop. You can request a preferred drop location at checkout, and drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion after assessing access and safety; Hello Gravel does not operate branded trucks.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards (area x depth ÷ 324). As a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.35 to 1.4 tons; you can use our online material calculator to convert and get an estimate before ordering. We have a 3-ton minimum order, so round accordingly.

For driveways we recommend 3/4u0022 to 1u0022 crushed stone as a durable base and wearing surface. For garden paths and patios 3/8u0022 to 3/4u0022 crushed or pea gravel works well for comfort and drainage. Steeper lots around Cedar Hills may need larger base rock and geotextile fabric to reduce washout.

Because we source materials regionally, color and texture can vary based on local geology in the West Utah area. Photos are representative; if color or size is important, add notes at checkout or contact our team to discuss options before ordering. We cannot guarantee an exact match to images.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and you can request this service during checkout. The driver will assess access, safety, and equipment before deciding, and Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading or provide it as a standard included service. Consider hiring a local landscaper if you need detailed leveling or compaction.

Cedar Hills has local ordinances and many neighborhoods have HOA rules that can restrict driveway or front-yard materials. Check with your city planning department and your HOA before ordering to avoid compliance issues. If you need help, contact our team and we'll point you to local resources.

Cedar Hills is semi-arid with occasional freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal storms that can cause washout on unprotected slopes. Gravel drains well but can migrate on steep pitches or during heavy runoff; use edge restraints, good grading, and periodic raking to maintain surfaces. For areas with freeze-thaw stress, a thicker base and compaction help stability.

Our minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks, typically tri-axle. Free delivery is available in many areas, but final pricing, delivery windows, and any additional services are shown at checkout based on your Cedar Hills zip code.
