Gravel in Selah, WA

Costs vary by material and distance, but expect most crushed driveway gravels to run roughly $30 to $70 per ton delivered in the Selah area. Delivery fees and minimums apply (Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons), so a small driveway will still hit the minimum; use our checkout to get a zip-code-specific quote. For an accurate total, include material type, depth, and whether you need spreading services.

Angular crushed rock (for example 3/4" crushed stone or crusher run) is best for Selah because its edges lock together and resist rutting in wet conditions. Use pea gravel or rounded river rock only for decorative areas or paths where drainage is good, not where heavy vehicles will park. Consider a coarse base layer plus a finer top surface to improve compaction and drainage in West Washington's rainy winters.

For a 600 sq ft driveway a common recommendation is 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel, which equals about 8 to 11 tons. At 4 inches depth you should budget roughly 10 to 11 tons; at 3 inches plan for about 8 tons. Use our material calculator or contact our team to convert exact depth and local stone density into a precise tonnage.

Yes, crushed rock is generally better for drainage and long-term durability because its angular particles interlock and compact, forming a stable surface that sheds water. Pea gravel drains well but is rounded and shifts under load, so it is less suitable for driveways and heavy-traffic areas. For drainage-only features such as dry creek beds, pea gravel can be a good aesthetic choice paired with proper edge restraint.

Gravel patios are lower upfront cost and drain well in Selah's rainy climate, but they require annual raking, topping up, and edging to stay tidy. Pavers are more expensive to install but provide a stable, low-maintenance surface that resists washout and freeze-thaw movement. Choose gravel for a casual, budget-friendly patio and pavers for a permanent, low-maintenance outdoor room.

With proper base construction, good drainage, and periodic maintenance (regrading and topping up), a gravel driveway in Selah can perform well for 10 to 20 years before a major overhaul is needed. Freeze-thaw and heavy rain can cause localized washboarding and ruts, so seasonal grading and adding fresh stone every few years will extend service life. If you park heavy vehicles frequently, expect to maintain it more often.

Yes, a compacted crushed-rock base and geotextile fabric are recommended in Selah, especially where soils are soft or drainage is poor. Fabric helps separate native soil from aggregate and reduces mixing that leads to sinking, while a 4 to 6 inch compacted base provides structural support. Both steps improve longevity in West Washington's wet conditions.

Hello Gravel coordinates with local suppliers serving Selah, but availability and small-load options vary by supplier. Our platform has a minimum order of 3 tons for dump-truck delivery; for under-1-ton needs check local garden centers or bagged stone retailers. Enter your zip code on our site or contact us to see which nearby suppliers can service your address and whether bagged or palletized options exist.

For RV pads and heavy-vehicle parking in Selah, plan on a structural section: typically 6 to 12 inches of compacted crushed stone base (6" for occasional use, 8" to 12" for regular heavy loads) topped with 2 to 3 inches of surface gravel. Proper compaction, edge restraint, and drainage are essential to prevent settling in wet seasons. If you want a quick estimate, a 10 ft by 30 ft pad at 8" depth uses about 7.4 cubic yards (about 10 to 11 tons) of compacted aggregate.

Costs vary by scope, access, and local labor rates, but a ballpark range for materials plus professional installation on 1,000 sq ft is roughly $1,200 to $4,500. Lower-end estimates assume minimal excavation and a thinner finish layer, while higher-end quotes include excavation, geotextile fabric, a 4 to 6 inch compacted base, and hauling labor. The best next step is to request a site-specific quote through our platform so suppliers can factor access, slope, and drainage into a firm price.

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