Prices vary by material type, supplier, and seasonal demand, but a 10-yard load delivered to Lacey commonly runs in the range of about $400 to $1,000. Fine decorative gravels and specialty blends are at the high end, while basic crushed rock is at the low end. Exact pricing is shown at checkout once you enter your zip code and choose a material.

For 1,000 sq ft, 2 inches of gravel equals about 6.2 cubic yards and 4 inches equals about 12.4 cubic yards. Calculation: area (1,000 sq ft) times depth in feet (2/12 or 4/12) divided by 27 (cubic feet per cubic yard). Order a little extra to allow for compaction and grading losses.

Costs depend on material choice and delivery fees, but a rough range is $300 to $1,200 for materials plus delivery for 1,000 sq ft at 2-4 inches. Using 6.2 to 12.4 cubic yards and an estimated delivered price of $40 to $100 per cubic yard gives that range; specialty decorative gravels cost more.

A common, durable choice for Lacey driveways is crushed stone, such as 3/4" clean crushed rock for base and a finer 3/8" to 1/2" crushed or 'chip' top layer. Crushed, angular stone locks together better than rounded river rock and handles the Pacific Northwest's wet winters more reliably. Local suppliers may offer 'road base' or 'crusher run' for a compactable base and a washed crushed stone for the surface.

Yes, a compacted base is recommended instead of sand: install several inches of compactable road base or crushed rock, compact it, then apply the top gravel layer. In Lacey's wet climate proper base, compaction, and slope for drainage reduce rutting and washout. Sand alone does not provide the structural support most driveways need.

Gravel is naturally rounded rock often from river deposits, while crushed stone is mechanically crushed and angular. For driveways, crushed stone is usually better because angular particles interlock and compact, creating a more stable surface; rounded gravel tends to shift and rut more. If you want a smooth look, you can use crushed base with a decorative gravel topcoat from local suppliers.

Yes, most suppliers and haulers offer single-truck deliveries to residential sites in Lacey. A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards of loose gravel, though capacity can vary by truck type and material. If you need more, suppliers can schedule multiple truckloads or larger equipment where available.

Gravel driveways require periodic maintenance: raking to redistribute material, topping up lost gravel every few years, and fixing potholes or washouts after heavy rains. In Lacey's rainy winters you can expect more movement, weed growth, and occasional rutting compared with paved surfaces. Good drainage, edges, and a solid base reduce maintenance but not eliminate it.

Cost depends on driveway width, depth, material, and whether you install a base. For a single-car driveway 20 feet long by 10 feet wide at 3 inches depth you need about 5.6 cubic yards; delivered material may cost roughly $200 to $600 and labor or compaction could add $300 to $1,000. For an accurate estimate for your specific dimensions and material choice, request a quote with your zip code and preferred product.

Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, expect local color and texture variations that reflect western Washington geology. Ask about delivery placement, gate access, and tailgate spreading at checkout—drivers may spread material at their discretion but cannot guarantee it. Also account for wet-season deliveries and slope/drainage when scheduling materials for winter or rainy months.

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

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.
