Gravel in Jenks, OK

Prices fluctuate by material, season, and delivery distance. In Jenks you can often expect delivered gravel to range roughly from $30 to $70 per ton depending on type (pea gravel and river rock are usually toward the higher end), but exact pricing is available when you enter your zip code or request a quote through Hello Gravel. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and may offer free delivery in many areas; ask for a delivered price that includes tipping and any fees.

Crushed limestone and #57 crushed stone are the most common choices for Jenks driveways because they lock together, compact well, and resist washout. Pea gravel and river rock are popular for decorative beds, pathways, and drainage features, but they move and do not compact well for driveways. Regional suppliers in West Oklahoma commonly offer limestone- and chert-based mixes, so color and texture can vary locally.

Hot, dry summers can cause fines or dust to dry out and become loose, while occasional freezes and heavy rain events can cause frost heave or washouts in poorly graded areas. Proper base depth, compaction, and good drainage reduce these issues—keep slopes away from structures and use geotextile fabric where needed. Expect to regrade or add material more often after heavy storms or freeze-thaw cycles.

A simple rule: one ton of gravel covers about 250 sq ft at 1 inch depth. Use this formula: tons = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 250. For example, a 12' x 20' (240 sq ft) driveway at 4 inches needs roughly (240*4)/250 = 3.8 tons; round up to account for compaction and waste.

For driveways choose crushed stone like #57 or a limestone compacting mix that forms a stable base and resists rutting. For patios and walkways a 3/4" crusher-run or stone dust base with a decorative topcoat (pea gravel or flagstone infill) works well. Use pea gravel or rounded river rock for decorative beds and drainage areas but not as the main structural surface for driveways.

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and dump-truck haulers serving Jenks and West Oklahoma, so you can get delivered loads without calling multiple yards. For spreading, many local landscape contractors and grading companies offer loading, grading, and compaction services—ask for local installer quotes or request tailgate spreading at checkout, noting drivers perform spreading only at their discretion. If you need a full install, get at least two contractor bids that include base prep and compaction.

Gravel is usually the lowest material cost upfront and can be installed faster; expect lower per-square-foot material costs than asphalt, concrete, or pavers. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but can require less frequent top-up maintenance, while pavers have the highest material and labor cost but offer a finished look. For accurate comparisons in Jenks, get local quotes that include excavation, base preparation, compaction, and drainage work.

Possibly—some neighborhoods and HOAs have rules about driveway materials, curb appeal, or permitted front-yard surfaces. City of Jenks zoning or building departments may also have requirements for driveway permits or stormwater management if you change a driveway footprint or affect drainage. Before ordering material, check your HOA guidelines and contact the City of Jenks or your county planning office to confirm permit needs.

With proper base and drainage, crushed limestone or #57 drives can last many years but commonly need topping or spot repairs every 1-3 years depending on traffic. Decorative pea gravel and river rock may need more frequent raking and replenishment, especially after heavy rains. Plan on annual inspections and minor topping every few years to keep grades and drainage working well.

Yes—gravel is a permeable surface and can be part of a stormwater-friendly design when installed with an engineered base and appropriate subgrade. Permeable gravel systems reduce runoff and can help meet local stormwater goals, but they require proper design (depth, base aggregate, and sometimes geotextile) and may be subject to local regulations. Consult a local contractor or the City of Jenks for site-specific guidance and any stormwater requirements.

A heavy-duty gravel base typically requires excavation to subgrade, geotextile fabric if needed, and 8-12 inches of compacted crushed rock (more in soft soils), compacted in lifts with a plate or roller. Material needs and tons can be estimated with the tons = (area * depth) / 250 formula, and contractor costs vary—ask locally for quotes since labor, hauling distance, and equipment impact price. Hello Gravel can supply the materials quickly, but for compaction and grading hire a qualified local contractor to meet load-bearing needs.
