Gravel in Chantilly, VA

In Chantilly, delivered gravel prices vary by material and order size. Expect total delivered prices roughly in the range of $30 to $80 per ton for common crushed stone and pea gravel, with decorative stone near the high end; larger orders usually lower the per-ton cost. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing for your zip code and often offers free or flat-fee delivery in many areas, so check checkout for exact rates and minimums (we have a 3-ton minimum).

Hello Gravel partners with local landscape yards, quarries, and bulk haulers across Fairfax County to provide gravel delivery in Chantilly. Instead of a single supplier list, use our site to enter your zip code to see available local options and guaranteed pricing, or contact our sales team for supplier and material details. Local sources typically include crushed stone producers, asphalt recycling yards, and landscape material yards.

For Chantilly's freeze-thaw conditions, angular crushed stone with some fines (for example 21A or 21B mixes and 57 stone for base) performs best because it compacts and locks together. Pea gravel drains well but shifts and can rut in freeze-thaw cycles, so it is better for decorative areas than driveways. Consider a layered approach: compacted 57 or recycled crushed stone base with a smaller crushed top layer for best stability and drainage.

A 20x20 ft driveway (400 sq ft) needs about 4.9 cubic yards (roughly 5 yd3) for 4 inches and about 7.4 cubic yards for 6 inches. Using a common conversion of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard, that is roughly 7 tons (4 in) and 10.4 tons (6 in); allow 5-10% extra for compaction and waste when ordering. Hello Gravel's material calculator can give an exact estimate for your chosen product and local density.

Most simple resurfacing or replacement of an existing single-family driveway with gravel does not require a county permit, but there are important exceptions. Permits or engineering may be required if you change the driveway footprint, alter runoff to a neighboring property or public right-of-way, work in steep slopes or resource protection areas, or if your property is subject to an HOA with rules. Always check Fairfax County Land Development Services or call local permitting before starting work, and contact our team if you need guidance.

Installation costs depend on scope, access, and material, but expect rough ranges of $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft for grading and base prep and $1.50 to $3.50 per sq ft for spreading, compacting, and finishing gravel. For a 400 sq ft 2-car driveway that commonly totals about $1,200 to $3,000 for labor plus material, though prices can be higher for difficult access or extensive drainage work. Get at least two written bids and ask contractors for references and examples of local Chantilly work.

Gravel has the lowest initial cost but needs more frequent upkeep: expect periodic regrading and topping every 2 to 5 years and spot repairs after freeze-thaw cycles. Asphalt has higher upfront cost and needs sealing every 3 to 7 years with a typical lifespan of 15 to 25 years if maintained, while poured concrete costs the most up front and can last 25 to 40 years with fewer routine fixes. In Northern Virginia's freeze-thaw conditions, gravel is easiest and cheapest to repair, asphalt can develop potholes if drains are poor, and concrete performs best where drainage and subgrade are well prepared.

Yes — recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), crushed concrete, and reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) are commonly available in the Fairfax County/Dulles area and are often good, lower-cost options for base layers. These materials work well for driveway bases if compacted properly, but you should confirm any county or HOA surface requirements before using reclaimed materials for finish surfaces. Use Hello Gravel to see recycled options in your area and to confirm compliance with local specs.
