Gravel in Pleasant Grove, UT

Common local options include crushed rock (angular 3/4" to 1"), road base (mixed fines and aggregates), and pea gravel (3/8" rounded). Crushed rock and road base are best for driveways, RV pads, and areas that need compaction; pea gravel is mainly decorative for patios and walkways but moves more under traffic. Due to regional sourcing, color and texture may vary across Utah County.

Prices vary by material, quantity, and supplier, but many homeowners in Utah County see material-only prices roughly between $20 and $60 per ton, with delivery adding a variable fee. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers transparent, zip-code based quotes so you can get an exact delivered price for Pleasant Grove. For the fastest estimate, use the online calculator or request a quote for your zip code.

For driveways and RV pads choose a compactable road base or crushed rock (typically 3/4" minus or 1" minus) with fines for locking and stability. For patios and walkways use 1/4" to 3/8" pea gravel or decorative crushed rock with a compacted base and edging to keep material contained. For high-traffic or vehicle areas, avoid loose round pea gravel as it tends to rut and migrate in Pleasant Grove's freeze-thaw conditions.

A typical 2-car driveway in this area uses 6-8 inches of compacted road base (crushed gravel with fines) topped by 2-3 inches of finish crushed stone. An RV pad should also have 6-8 inches of compactable base and a 2-3 inch driving surface, with subgrade graded and compacted before placement. Use a plate compactor or roller to achieve good compaction; geotextile fabric under the base helps with stability on weaker soils.

Cold winters and freeze-thaw cycles can cause frost heave, displacement, and ruts in loose gravel; properly compacted base and adequate drainage reduce these problems. Low precipitation means dust and settling can be an issue in summer; periodic top-ups and light watering or use of fines can limit dust. Also watch for spring runoff from nearby slopes that can wash surface gravel away and require regrading.

Requirements vary by HOA and the city; some HOAs in Pleasant Grove and Utah County restrict loose gravel in front yards or require specific edging, dust control, or approved material colors. City codes may also address drainage and erosion control, especially in areas with slope or runoff concerns. Always check your HOA covenants and call Pleasant Grove city planning before finalizing a landscape or driveway plan.

Gravel has lower upfront costs but typically higher ongoing maintenance (periodic regrading, topping up, and dust control) and can last 10-20 years with care. Asphalt has higher initial cost and professional installation but generally requires less frequent yearly maintenance and can last 15-25 years with sealcoating. Pavers are the most expensive up front but can last 25+ years with minimal routine maintenance; local freeze-thaw cycles may increase the need for occasional repairs for all options.

Common add-ons include geotextile fabric to separate soils, edging (metal, stone, or plastic) to contain material, weed barrier, and compaction/installation services. Contractors may also offer grading, drainage work, and tailgate spreading; costs vary by project size and complexity, so request itemized quotes. Hello Gravel can deliver materials to your site and many local contractors provide installation—ask for estimates that list materials and labor separately.

Hello Gravel delivers via local contracted dump truck fleets with a typical minimum order of 3 tons and standard delivery lead time of 2+ business days. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, and drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout. Because we source regionally, color and texture can vary; include delivery notes for placement and spreading requests when you order.

Measure the area (length x width) and desired depth in inches, then use the formula: cubic yards = (length x width x depth in inches) / 324. Most crushed stone and gravel in Utah County weigh about 1.3 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard, so multiply cubic yards by this factor to estimate tons and round up for waste and compaction. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for a precise estimate and recommended safety margin.

Plan for annual or biannual tasks: rake and regrade to remove ruts, add 1/2 to 1 inch of top-up material every 2-4 years depending on traffic, and recompact after replenishing. Keep drains clear and fix gullies or washouts quickly after spring runoff, and reinstall edging or fabric if material is migrating. For dust control, consider applying fines, using a dust suppressant, or switching to a tighter-graded material if dust is a persistent issue.

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

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
