Gravel in Ardmore, OK

Expect wide variation depending on type and supplier, but typical retail ranges in the Ardmore area are about $20 to $45 per ton (rough estimate) or roughly $28 to $63 per cubic yard (1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons for crushed stone). Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; local delivery fees or free delivery offers may change final price.

For Ardmore, a compactable angular material such as crusher run or 3/4" crushed limestone is usually best as a base because it locks together and resists rutting on local clay and loamy soils. Use pea gravel or rounded river rock only as a thin decorative top layer; those materials shift easily and don’t compact well for drive surfaces. Also consider a thicker base and good drainage in low spots to handle occasional heavy rains.

A 20x24 ft driveway is 480 sq ft. At 2" depth you need about 3 cubic yards (~4.2 tons); at 3" about 4.5 cubic yards (~6.2 tons); at 4" about 6 cubic yards (~8.4 tons); and at 6" about 9 cubic yards (~12.6 tons). Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, and base layers (crusher run) plus a top dressing will change totals, so add material for compaction and grading.

Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries, landscape suppliers, and contracted dump truck haulers that deliver bulk gravel to Ardmore. Delivery is typically by tri-axle dump truck; some suppliers offer optional tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion but installation (grading, compaction) is usually performed by local contractors. Use Hello Gravel to get quotes and delivery options for your zip code, and contact local landscape contractors for full install services.

Ardmore’s hot summers and occasional heavy rain mean you should choose angular, well-graded material that compacts and sheds water rather than rounded stone that rolls. Heavy downpours increase the risk of washout and ruts, so incorporate good drainage, crown the driveway, and use a compacted base (crusher run) to improve longevity. Proper edging, slope stabilization, and periodic grading after storm seasons will also extend service life.

Pricing varies with site prep, drainage needs, and contractor rates, but a typical installed gravel driveway in the Ardmore area often ranges from about $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for basic installs, or roughly $700 to $2,000+ for a 480 sq ft driveway depending on excavation, base depth, and labor. Major grading, culverts, or drainage work can push costs higher, so get multiple local quotes and specify material type and compaction requirements.

For paver bases use a compactable aggregate such as 3/4" crushed limestone or crusher run compacted to a firm surface for the base (typically 4" to 6" for pedestrian areas, 6"+ for vehicle loads), followed by a 1/4" to 3/8" stone dust or sand bedding layer. Install a geotextile under the base on poor soils to reduce mixing and improve drainage, and compact each layer with a plate compactor for best results in Ardmore’s soils and weather.

For slope erosion control in and around Ardmore, use larger angular stone for surface protection (3/4" to 2" clean crushed rock) or place river rock/boulder riprap at flow points and toe-of-slope areas to slow water. Combine the rock with geotextile fabric, check dams, and terraces on steeper grades; rounded rock may be fine for surface protection but angular crushed stone interlocks better where vehicle access or footing is needed. Also size the material to expected flow velocities—bigger stones at high-energy outlets, smaller graded rock on gentler slopes.

Most Ardmore homeowners regrade or add gravel every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic, drainage, and winter/ storm damage; low-traffic rural driveways may only need topping every 2 to 4 years. Typical costs for a top-up run are the material price per ton (roughly $20-$45/ton locally) plus any contractor grading fees; a small top-up of 2 to 4 tons may cost $40-$180 for material alone, or $150-$500 if you hire equipment and labor. Regular grading, trimming vegetation, and fixing drainage issues reduce long-term maintenance needs.

Gravel is the lowest-cost upfront option and easy to repair, but it requires periodic maintenance and can wash out after heavy rains. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but typically need less frequent topping and provide smoother, longer-lasting surfaces; crushed concrete offers a recycled, cost-effective base material and can perform similarly to crushed stone if compacted well. Choose gravel for low-cost rural driveways and high-accessibility areas, and consider asphalt or concrete where lower maintenance and smoother driving surface are priorities.
