Gravel delivery in Harrisonburg, VA

Prices fluctuate by material, quantity, and supplier, but most delivered bag or bulk gravel in the Harrisonburg area runs roughly $40 to $80 per ton. A full truckload can range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on type and distance; exact pricing for your address is available after entering your zip code on our site or calling our team.

Gravel (river or pit-run) is often slightly cheaper up front because it is less processed, while crushed stone (like 3/4" or #57) typically costs more but compacts and locks up better. For a budget option choose gravel, but for long-term stability and lower maintenance crushed stone is usually the better value.

Our haulers typically use tri-axle dump trucks that carry about 10 to 14 cubic yards (roughly 13 to 18 tons) depending on the material and moisture. As a rule of thumb 1 cubic yard is about 1.3 tons; 1 ton of gravel covers roughly 100 to 125 sq ft at 2" depth, about 60 to 70 sq ft at 4", and about 40 to 45 sq ft at 6" depth.

Assuming a common 10 ft driveway width (200 sq ft): 2" depth needs about 1.24 cubic yards (~1.6 tons), 4" needs ~2.47 cu yd (~3.2 tons), and 6" needs ~3.70 cu yd (~4.8 tons). Using local price ranges of $40 to $80 per ton, expect approximate material costs (delivered) of $64-$128 for 2", $129-$257 for 4", and $192-$385 for 6"; note Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons, so small orders may hit the minimum.

Two inches is generally not sufficient for a driveway in Harrisonburg. Local contractors typically recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone or aggregate for a lasting driveway, with a 1 to 2 inch wearing/top layer if desired.

A common locally available and recommended build-up is: a 4" compacted base of crusher-run or crushed stone (Type or #3 equivalent), topped with 1 to 2" of 3/4" crushed stone or #57 for the driving surface. In the Shenandoah Valley you will often see crushed limestone, trap rock, and rounded river gravels; availability varies by supplier so check product pages for local images and specs.

Products such as resin-bound gravel, polymeric gravel, or polymer-stabilized aggregates can harden into a firm surface, but they are specialty items and not widely stocked at all local aggregate yards. Some specialty landscapers or regional suppliers may offer them; contact our team and we can try to source polymeric or resin-bound options for delivery in the Harrisonburg area.

Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons; some local yards do allow customer pickup or sell smaller amounts by the bag. Skip deliveries and very small roll-off loads are less common for loose aggregate; the cheapest option is often pickup from a nearby landscape yard or ordering our minimum 3-ton delivery and sharing with neighbors if possible.

Many local suppliers carry base courses equivalent to 'Type 4' (crusher-run, dense-graded base, or road base) and can price and deliver by the ton or cubic yard. If you need a specific spec, include it in your order notes or contact our sales team so we can match the right local product and confirm how the supplier measures and bills.
