Gravel in Alpine, AZ

Gravel pricing in Arizona varies by region and material: urban areas like Phoenix commonly see $25-$45 per ton for basic crushed stone, while higher-elevation or specialty materials run $40-$65 per ton. For Alpine (remote, high elevation), delivered prices are often higher because of haul distance and road conditions; expect roughly $45-$85 per ton delivered depending on the grade and supplier. Orders must meet Hello Gravel minimums (3 tons) and exact price is confirmed at checkout or on your quote.

Yes — Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and contracted haulers that deliver to Alpine when access allows, but deliveries to remote towns often incur additional fees to cover distance and difficult access. Typical extra delivery charges for remote/mountain deliveries range from about $75 to $250, though some nearby suppliers may offer free delivery depending on inventory and distance. We recommend checking availability for your zip code and requesting a delivery quote at checkout for an exact fee.

Common grades include 3/4" crushed stone (good structural base), 1/2" or 3/8" crushed stone (compactable top layer), pea gravel (small rounded stones for pathways), and decomposed granite (fine, compactable surface). For Alpine driveways, 3/4" crushed stone as a base with a 3/8" or crush-and-run finish works well for durability and drainage. For landscaping and pathways, pea gravel or decomposed granite provide a softer, more decorative finish and perform well in the local high-elevation climate.

'Class A' typically refers to a compactable aggregate mix used as a base material; it is usually angular crushed stone with a range of particle sizes and some fines that lock together when compacted. Visually it appears as a mixed-size, mostly gray crushed rock rather than smooth rounded stones, and it is commonly used under driveways, patios, and road shoulders as a stable sub-base. In Alpine, Class A products are chosen where freeze-thaw stability and good compaction matter.

A quick rule for crushed gravel (assuming roughly 1.35 tons per cubic yard) is: tons = area (sq ft) * depth (inches) / 231.4. Examples: 100 sq ft at 2" depth needs about 0.86 tons, 100 sq ft at 4" needs about 1.73 tons, and 500 sq ft at 2" needs about 4.31 tons. Always round up and add 5-10% for compaction, runoff on slopes, and cutting to fit irregular areas.

Yes — Alpine sits at high elevation and can experience snow, ice, narrow mountain roads, and spring thaw conditions that affect large truck access and safety. These conditions can delay delivery windows, trigger route surcharges, or require alternate drop locations; drivers will assess access on delivery day and tailgate spreading is at their discretion. We recommend scheduling deliveries during dry weather when possible and contacting our team ahead of time to discuss access, timing, and any extra charges.

Order materials close to when you will use them to avoid exposure to prolonged moisture, and keep stockpiles on a packed base or geotextile to reduce contamination and washout. For steep or freeze-prone areas choose angular crushed stone that locks and drains well, and plan for proper drainage to prevent frost heave. If you need help selecting a grade for a specific project, contact our team with project dimensions and photos for tailored guidance.

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.
