FAQs — Gravel Cost in Salt Lake City

How many tons of gravel do I need for a driveway?
A standard driveway (20×10 ft, 4 in deep) needs about 2.5–3 tons of gravel. At a cost of $45–$80 per ton delivered, expect to pay $110–$240 for materials alone.
What is the best gravel for driveways?
Crushed stone #57 or #411 is most popular — it compacts well and drains water. Pea gravel looks nicer but can shift underfoot. Decomposed granite is good for paths.
How deep should gravel be?
For paths and decorative use: 2–3 inches. For driveways: 4–6 inches. For a base layer under concrete or pavers: 6–8 inches with compaction.
How much does gravel delivery cost?
Gravel delivery typically costs $15–$75 depending on distance and load size. Many suppliers include delivery in the per-ton price for orders over 10 tons.
