Stone in Providence, UT

Delivered stone prices in Providence typically vary by type, truck size, and season. Expect a rough range of $35 to $65 per ton for common crushed stone and $40 to $90 per cubic yard, but local availability and delivery fees can change that. Check your zip on Hello Gravel for an exact, up-to-date quote for your project.

Angular crushed stone (3/4" crushed) and crushed limestone or granite generally perform best because they interlock and resist movement during freeze-thaw cycles. Rounded river rock tends to shift and is less stable for driveways but can work well for decorative beds. For walking surfaces, crusher fines or compactable mixes offer a firmer finish while still draining well.

For a driveway or RV pad, use a compacted aggregate base (3/4" minus or class 2 road base) of 4 to 6 inches, compacted in 2-inch lifts, with a top wearing layer of 2 to 3 inches of 3/4" crushed stone or angular stone. Aim for firm compaction; contractors commonly target about 90-95% relative compaction for the base. If you expect snowplows or heavy vehicles, increase base depth to 6 inches and consider edging to retain material.

Stone gravel (3/4" crushed) is generally lower cost than asphalt to install but needs periodic replenishing and regrading; it drains better and is easier to repair. Decomposed granite and crusher fines give a smoother walking surface but can rut under heavy vehicle use and need more maintenance in high-traffic or wet freeze-thaw areas. Asphalt lasts longer with less frequent topping but costs more up front and reduces permeability, which matters for Providence's stormwater concerns.

A well-built stone driveway can last many years with regular maintenance, but wearing layers will need topping every 2 to 4 years depending on traffic and winter plowing. Expect some displacement from snowplows; use higher-profile edging and keep the top layer depth at 2-3 inches to make plow impacts less damaging. Annual raking, occasional regrading, and adding 1 to 2 tons every few years is typical for a homeowner-level drive.

Use tons = area (sq ft) * depth (in) / 231 for crushed stone (this uses ~1.4 tons per cubic yard). For a 1-car 12x40 (480 sq ft): about 6.2 tons at 3" and about 12.4 tons at 6". For a 2-car 20x40 (800 sq ft): about 10.4 tons at 3" and about 20.7 tons at 6".

Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order, which covers small projects. Local suppliers commonly use tri-axle dump trucks that carry about 10 to 14 tons; smaller straight trucks or end-dumps may be available regionally but can carry less and sometimes add a delivery fee. If you need under-truckload amounts or specific placement, request details at checkout and our team will check local hauler options.

Local rules vary: Providence city codes, county stormwater rules, and neighborhood HOAs can have restrictions on surface materials, colors, runoff control, and permeable area requirements. Before ordering, check your HOA covenants and contact Providence city planning or building department to confirm setbacks or stormwater requirements. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel and we can flag likely permitting issues for your zip code.

For xeriscaping in Providence, use medium angular gravel (3/8" to 3/4") mixed with locally sourced crushed rock to discourage weeds and retain light moisture while allowing drainage. On slopes, pair graded stone with biodegradable erosion control fabric and use larger riprap or 1-2" rock at drainage paths and swales. Lighter-colored stone helps reflect heat and complements native drought-tolerant plants; include color notes in your order if you have a preference.

Plan installation from late spring through early fall (May through October) when soils are thawed and drier so you can achieve proper compaction. Avoid major installs during winter freeze or immediately after heavy seasonal snowmelt, as frozen or saturated ground prevents proper compaction and increases frost-heave risk. If you need delivery in winter, discuss timing and spreading with our team since drivers may be limited by conditions.

Ask for angular crushed stone for driveways to reduce movement, and request tailgate placement notes at checkout to guide the driver. Install edging to keep material in place against snowplows, and consider a coarser top layer near drive edges to reduce tracking. Finally, order a little extra (5-10%) to allow for compaction settling and future top-dressing.

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

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
