Gravel in Fruitland, WA

Delivered gravel prices in the Fruitland area commonly fall in the range of about $25 to $75 per ton for many common gravel types, with variations based on material, quarry distance, and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and delivers by dump truck (typically tri-axle); many areas have free delivery but some ZIP codes or long-haul loads may add a delivery fee of roughly $25 to $150. Exact costs depend on your address, access (driveway width, overhead clearance), and whether you need tailgate spreading or extra stops, so check price at checkout or contact our team for a local quote.

In West Washington contractors most often choose angular crushed rock (base) for driveways and load-bearing areas because it compacts well and sheds water when properly graded. Pea gravel and small river rock are popular for patios, pathways, and decorative beds, while larger river rock and rounded stones are used for drainage features and dry creek beds. Local choices reflect regional geology, so color and texture may vary across Fruitland and nearby towns.

A typical single-car driveway (12' x 50') at a 4" compacted depth uses about 7 to 11 cubic yards, roughly 10 to 16 tons depending on stone density; increasing depth to 6" raises the tonnage accordingly. A 12' x 12' patio at 2" depth uses about 0.8 to 1.2 tons, while a narrow 3' x 30' walkway at 2" depth is under 1 ton. These are estimates; use our material calculator or contact us with exact dimensions to get a precise tonnage.

Labor and installation vary widely based on site prep, grading, and drainage work; simple spreading and compaction is often quoted at about $0.50 to $2.50 per square foot, while full driveway reconstruction with excavation, base rock, and geotextile can run $2 to $6 per square foot. Some contractors price by the ton for delivery plus $10 to $30 per ton for spreading and compaction services. Always get multiple local quotes and confirm what is included (edge restraints, compaction, grading, disposal of old material).

Fruitland's wet winters mean you should prioritize well-draining, angular materials for functional surfaces; crushed angular base with a top layer of coarser gravel helps water move through instead of ponding. Proper compaction, a slight crown (about 1/4" per foot) on driveways, and edge containment reduce washouts and rutting during prolonged wet periods. For low spots or heavy runoff areas, plan subsurface drainage like French drains or underdrains to prevent saturation and frost heave.

For slopes in Fruitland we commonly recommend a heavy-duty woven polypropylene geotextile under the gravel to separate soils and prevent washout while allowing drainage. Erosion control blankets (coir or straw), coir logs, and small check dams can stabilize newly placed gravel on steep or high-flow slopes, and riprap or larger rock is appropriate where concentrated runoff occurs. Ask a local contractor about product selections and installation details for your slope and expected runoff conditions.

Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and quarries that serve Fruitland and nearby West Washington areas; exact vendors vary by ZIP code and regional availability. Many retail yards have small pickup minimums (1 to 3 cubic yards), while commercial deliveries often start at 3 tons or more; Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons for delivery. Check your ZIP code on our site or contact our sales team to see which suppliers serve your address and their specific minimums.

A properly constructed crushed-gravel driveway (well-compacted base, geotextile, good drainage) is usually the lowest upfront cost and is easy and inexpensive to repair, making it a strong long-term value for low- to moderate-use driveways in Fruitland. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but typically last longer and require different maintenance; they perform better for heavy, frequent traffic and provide lower dust and mud. Consider expected traffic, maintenance willingness, and budget: for rural or seasonal properties in wet West Washington, upgraded crushed base with good drainage often balances cost and durability.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request spreading in the Order Notes at checkout and we will pass that to the driver. Because safety and truck access govern whether spreading is possible, there is no guarantee the driver will spread on arrival, so plan for a separate spreading crew or tools if you require guaranteed spreading.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
