Gravel in Mount Sterling, KY

Typical delivered prices in Kentucky often fall roughly between $30 and $70 per ton depending on the type of gravel, distance from the quarry, and seasonal demand. Mount Sterling pricing will be in that general range, but exact rates vary by supplier and material grade. Enter your zip code on Hello Gravel for an exact, up-to-date quote.

Whether 1 ton fits depends on your truck's payload rating: many half-ton pickups cannot safely carry a full ton, while some heavy-duty pickups can carry 1 to 1.5 tons. Keep in mind Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are made by dump truck, so small pickup-sized deliveries are not typical. If you plan to move material yourself, check your vehicle's owner manual for payload limits.

As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of gravel covers about 80 to 100 square feet at a 1-inch depth, roughly 40 to 50 square feet at 2 inches, and about 25 to 35 square feet at 3 inches. Coverage varies with stone size, compaction, and how loosely it is spread. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or give us your project dimensions for a site-specific estimate.

A common Mount Sterling driveway build-up uses a compactible base such as 3/4" minus or crusher run, topped with 3/4" crushed stone for the driving surface. Because of local freeze-thaw cycles and drainage needs, a well-graded base and good slope away from structures are important. Contact our team for a recommended stack-up based on your driveway size and soil.

Yes, local suppliers offer a range of colors and textures, but the look will reflect regional geology so samples can vary from online photos. You can note color or texture preferences in the Order Notes at checkout and ask for photos or a sample from the local supplier. We do not guarantee an exact color match due to natural variation.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if the site and safety conditions allow. You can request spreading at checkout, but it is not guaranteed and the driver will assess the job on arrival. For precise grading or fine finish work, hire a local landscaper or contractor.

Clear vehicles, toys, and obstacles from the intended drop zone and mark the preferred area with stakes or flagging. Make sure the truck can access the site on firm ground and note any tight turns, low wires, or narrow driveways in Order Notes. Proper prep reduces delays and potential re-handling fees.

Gravel is commonly used in Mount Sterling, but heavy rain and freeze-thaw cycles can move loose material if the area lacks proper drainage or a compacted base. Use edge restraints, slope grading, and a compacted base or geotextile fabric to limit washout and reduce maintenance. If you have a slope or poor soils, our team can suggest suitable stone sizes and installation tips.

Small projects like garden paths or ground cover often require 3 to 6 tons, while resurfacing a single-car driveway typically needs 6 to 12 tons depending on length and desired depth. Larger driveways, parking areas, or base layers for structures will scale up from there. For an accurate amount, enter project length, width, and depth into our material calculator or contact our team with dimensions.
