Gravel in Cedar City, UT

You can buy bulk gravel from local Iron County quarries and aggregate suppliers that serve Cedar City; Hello Gravel also connects you with nearby suppliers and schedules delivery. Deliveries arrive by dump truck (typically tri-axle) and tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout, but spreading is not guaranteed.

Costs vary by material and season, but expect common crushed base gravel to run roughly $20 to $40 per ton delivered, and decorative or pea gravel about $30 to $60 per ton. That translates to about $25 to $80 per cubic yard depending on density and type; contact Hello Gravel for a precise, site-specific quote and remember we have a 3-ton minimum.

For Cedar City's semi-arid, high-elevation climate, crushed rock with angular particles (3/4" minus or 1-1/2" crushed) is best for driveways because it compacts and drains well, while pea gravel or 3/8" decorative rock works for yards and paths. Use larger, well-graded rock for parking and drive lanes to resist rutting and use finer top layers for walkable surfaces.

A 12 ft by 50 ft driveway is 600 square feet. For a 4" depth (typical top layer) you need about 7.4 cubic yards (about 9.5 to 10 tons). If you plan a 6" compacted base plus surface, budget about 11.1 cubic yards (around 14 to 15 tons).

A 1/4-acre is 10,890 square feet. For a 2" decorative layer you would need about 67 cubic yards (roughly 87 to 90 tons); for a 3" layer plan on about 100 cubic yards (about 130 tons). These are starting estimates—final amounts depend on existing grade, compaction, and whether you install a base.

Yes, several quarries and aggregate suppliers operate in Iron County and nearby areas, so materials are often sourced locally which helps keep costs down and reflects regional geology. Hello Gravel will match your order with suppliers local to Cedar City to minimize haul distance and delivery fees where possible.

Regulations vary by zoning district and individual HOAs; some HOAs or city zones may have restrictions on visible landscaping, color, or material type. Before installing, check Cedar City planning/zoning and any HOA rules to confirm allowed materials, setbacks, and stormwater requirements.

Standard delivery lead time is typically 2+ business days through Hello Gravel, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST (note Cedar City is in Mountain Time). Local development can increase seasonal demand and affect availability or price, so contractors should schedule orders in advance during busy seasons.

Late spring through early fall is the best window in Cedar City: ground is drier, compaction and equipment access are easier, and there is less risk of freeze-thaw disruption. Avoid late winter or early spring when snowmelt and soggy ground can cause poor compaction and erosion.

Many local contractors provide on-site estimates and can handle base preparation and compaction as part of an installation package, often coordinating with the gravel delivery. To get an accurate quote, provide property access details, dimensions, planned use, and whether you need removal of existing material or grading.

Yes, crushed concrete and asphalt are commonly used as cost-effective base layers and are generally acceptable in residential driveways if compacted properly, but they may have different drainage and frost-susceptibility characteristics than virgin rock. Availability varies locally, so ask Hello Gravel about reclaimed options and confirm any local code or HOA restrictions before using them.

Cedar City's soils can include sandy and rocky mixes with variable drainage, and higher elevation means freeze-thaw cycles can affect pavement stability. For long-lasting driveways, contractors often recommend a well-compacted base of 4 to 8 inches of crushed stone plus a 2 to 3 inch top layer of finer gravel; adjust depth for poor soils or heavier loads.

Many suppliers and contractors offer volume discounts on large orders, and Hello Gravel can arrange competitive pricing for commercial-size loads; specific discounts depend on material type and haul distance. For financing or extended payment options, discuss terms directly with suppliers or contractors before placing a large order.

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