Stone in Salt Lake City, UT

Delivered stone prices in Salt Lake City commonly fall in a broad range because of material type and delivery distance. Expect roughly $30 to $70 per ton delivered for common crushed stone sizes, with finer or specialty decorative stone on the higher end. Exact pricing depends on the stone type, local supplier, and haul distance, so request a ZIP-code quote for the most accurate number.

Standard delivery for stone through our network is typically 2 or more business days, depending on supplier inventory and scheduling. Next-day delivery is often available if you order before the specified cutoff (see checkout for details), but availability depends on local supplier schedules and truck capacity. We recommend booking your preferred delivery date early for weekend or busy-season projects.

For Salt Lake City driveways, angular crushed stone like 3/4" crushed rock or 3/4" minus crush-and-run is common for a stable driving surface. A compacted base of larger 1" to 2" crushed rock underlies the top layer to promote drainage and reduce frost heave in seasonal freeze-thaw conditions. If you want a smoother finish, top with 3/8" or 1/4" crushed stone or crusher run, but make sure the material drains well.

At 2 inches deep, 1,000 sq ft requires about 6.2 cubic yards of stone (1000 x 2/12 = 166.7 cu ft; 166.7/27 = 6.17 cu yd). Using a common estimate of about 1.5 short tons per cubic yard for crushed stone gives roughly 9.3 tons. We recommend ordering about 10 tons to allow for compaction and minor overage.

Many locally sourced stones such as crushed granite and quartzite perform well in freeze-thaw cycles and resist salt scaling because they are dense and non-porous. Limestone and some softer stones can be more affected by repeated salt exposure and thermal cycling, so pick a harder, angular stone for driveways and roads. Good drainage and proper compaction are critical to minimize freeze-thaw damage regardless of stone type.

Suppliers around Salt Lake City commonly offer crushed granite, crushed limestone, decomposed granite (DG), river rock, and crushed quartzite or basalt in various sizes. Availability and exact color or texture vary by quarry and season due to regional sourcing, so check product listings or ask our team to confirm what's in your ZIP code. Decorative colored gravels and screenings may also be available for landscaping uses.

Labor and equipment to spread and compact stone typically range from about $0.50 to $2.00 per square foot in the Salt Lake City area, depending on site access, depth, and equipment needed. For a 1,000 sq ft driveway that works out to roughly $500 to $2,000 for spreading and compaction alone; contractors will give precise bids based on driveway conditions. Ask for line-item quotes so you can compare material, spreading, and compaction costs separately.

In Salt Lake City's relatively arid climate, stone paths can last many years with low upkeep because there is less biological decay and less persistent moisture. Expect to regrade and add a top dressing every 3 to 7 years, and perform light maintenance like raking, weed control, and occasional topping after heavy use. Regularly clearing debris and maintaining drainage will extend life and reduce long-term costs.

Washed stone has fines and dust removed, so it looks cleaner, drains better, and is preferred where runoff or appearance matters; it typically costs a bit more than unwashed material. Unwashed stone contains fines that can help bind and compact the surface for a firmer finish but may retain moisture and look dusty. Choose washed stone for drainage and decorative uses, and unwashed (crusher run) for base layers and areas where compaction is desired.

Many Salt Lake City suburbs and homeowner associations have rules about front-yard materials, colors, and driveway alterations, especially regarding visible rock beds and hardscaping. Some areas encourage xeriscaping and allow stone, while others limit rock size, color, or require a permit for driveway modification. Always check your city code and HOA covenants before ordering large quantities, and contact our team if you need help confirming local restrictions.

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