Gravel in Corona, NY

Delivery cost in Corona varies by supplier, truck access, and load size. Many Hello Gravel deliveries are free in nearby zones, but typical delivery fees when charged range from about $0 to $150 depending on distance and site access. We require a 3-ton minimum order; for an exact delivery price enter your ZIP at checkout or contact our team for a local quote.

For Corona’s freeze-thaw winters and snowplow exposure, use a good structural base of crusher run or 3/4" crushed stone compacted to form a stable foundation, topped with 3/8" to 3/4" crushed stone for the wearing surface. Angular, crushed material locks together better than rounded pea gravel and resists rutting when plowed. Add geotextile and edge restraints to reduce migration and improve longevity.

A 20x30 ft patio at 3 inches deep needs about 150 cubic feet or 5.56 cubic yards of gravel. Using a common conversion of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard for crushed stone, you will need roughly 7.8 tons, so order 8 tons to allow for compaction and minor waste. Always round up and check with your supplier for exact product density.

Prices vary, but generally pea gravel costs more per ton than crushed stone and crusher run because of screening and aesthetics. In the Corona/NYC region you might commonly see relative ranges where crusher run is the least expensive, crushed stone is mid-range, and pea gravel is the priciest; exact per-ton quotes (including delivery) depend on local availability and truck access. For a precise comparison for your address, request quotes through Hello Gravel so we can show delivered pricing for each material.

Gravel combined with a proper underdrain, sub-base, and geotextile can greatly improve drainage in yards with compacted clay common in many Corona properties. The system directs water away from the surface and prevents fines from clogging the gravel, but it must be sized and installed correctly for your slope and soil conditions. Consider a soil test or contractor assessment to confirm whether additional grading or a French drain is needed.

With a properly built base and routine maintenance, a gravel driveway in Corona typically lasts 5 to 15 years before needing significant rework, though the top layer will require periodic replenishing. Harsh plowing, salt, and freeze-thaw cycles accelerate loss of fines and displacement, so expect to regrade and add material every few years. Regular edging, compaction, and topping up extend service life.

Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers that serve Corona; minimum order sizes commonly start at our platform minimum of 3 tons, though some suppliers may accept smaller landscape loads or larger minimums depending on truck type. Because suppliers and haul distances vary across the West New York metro area, enter your ZIP on our site or contact our team to see available suppliers and their exact minimums for your address.

Corona is inside New York City limits, so curb cuts, changes to the sidewalk, or alterations to the public right-of-way often require permits from the NYC Department of Transportation and Department of Buildings. Private yard changes are usually allowed, but driveway access and curb modifications can trigger inspections or permits. Check local rules via NYC 311 or your borough office before starting work and include permit time when planning the job.

Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is flexible in winter but needs more ongoing maintenance, making it attractive for lower budgets or temporary solutions. Asphalt gives a smoother, lower-maintenance surface but costs more up front and can be damaged by repeated freeze-thaw cycles unless properly installed. Pavers offer the longest-lasting, most attractive finish with higher upfront cost and easier localized repairs, but require good base prep and a higher initial investment; choose based on budget, desired appearance, and how much maintenance you want to do.

Installation costs depend on site access, existing grade, removal of old material, and local labor rates; in Corona you should expect a wide range. As a rough ballpark, a simple 2-car gravel driveway (about 400 to 500 sq ft) with base prep, geotextile, compaction, and top dressing often falls in the low-to-mid thousands of dollars, but complex jobs with heavy excavation or permit work cost more.

Ask your plow operator to avoid scraping down to the base; maintain a slightly higher blade setting to reduce gravel loss. Use sand or a sand-salt mix sparingly on high-ice areas and repair ruts in spring by regrading and adding fresh gravel where needed. Regular edging and occasional compaction after thawing helps keep the surface stable.
