Gravel in Glendale, WI

Standard delivery through Hello Gravel is 2+ business days from order confirmation; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Minimum order is 3 tons and delivery fees depend on supplier distance and truck access; many Glendale orders qualify for free delivery but check your zip code at checkout. Deliveries arrive by dump truck (usually tri-axle) and tailgate spreading can be requested but is performed at the driver’s discretion.

For Glendale's freeze-thaw cycles, angular crushed stone with some fines (for example 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed gravel '3/4" minus') performs best because it locks together and compacts. Larger clean stone (1" to 2") is great for drainage layers but not as comfortable as a driving surface; use it under a compacted crushed stone base. Avoid loose, round gravels as a primary driving surface since they migrate and rut more during freeze-thaw.

Local pricing varies by material and supplier, but typical ranges in West Wisconsin are: crushed limestone $20-$40 per ton (roughly $25-$35 per cubic yard), pea gravel $35-$60 per ton, and recycled crushed concrete $15-$35 per ton. Final price depends on delivery distance, load size, and seasonal demand, so check your exact zip code on Hello Gravel for current quotes. Prices shown are estimates and may shift with regional supply and truck availability.

A 20 x 30 ft area at 4 inches deep is about 7.4 cubic yards of material. Crushed stone in this area typically weighs about 1.4 tons per cubic yard, so you will need roughly 10 to 11 tons before waste. We recommend ordering about 10% extra for compaction and runoff, so plan on about 11 to 12 tons to be safe.

For low-maintenance, good-drainage driveways in Glendale, use a layered approach: a compacted 4-6" base of 3/4" crushed stone with fines (for strength), topped with a 1-2" wearing layer of 3/4" crushed or 3/8" clean stone for a smooth surface. Add geotextile fabric and edge restraints to reduce migration and washouts; proper crown and slope are essential to shed meltwater. This setup drains well, tolerates plowing, and reduces annual material loss during freeze-thaw cycles.

Pea gravel is smooth and decorative, great for patios and walkways, but it shifts easily and is not ideal for driveways unless stabilized. Crushed limestone compacts well, provides a firm driving surface, and is a common choice for Glendale driveways and paths. Recycled crushed concrete is cost-effective for base layers and driveways but can vary in color and contain debris; it works well under a finished layer when budget is a concern.

Remove topsoil and organic material, establish a stable subgrade with a slight crown for drainage, and install geotextile fabric if you have soft soils. Add a 4-6" compacted base of 3/4" crushed stone, compact in lifts with a plate compactor or roller, then finish with a 1-2" wearing layer; compact each layer thoroughly. Proper compaction and a defined edge reduce rutting and minimize material loss during Wisconsin freeze-thaw cycles.

Requirements vary by property and HOA rules; some HOAs or local zoning codes in Glendale may require approval or have standards for driveway surfacing and setbacks. Check with the City of Glendale building/zoning department and your HOA before changing driveway material to confirm permit needs and any required inspections. If you need help, Hello Gravel's team can advise on typical local expectations but cannot issue permits.

Freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow increase maintenance needs by causing rutting, settling, and material migration, which leads to periodic grading and fresh gravel additions. Expect to regrade and add a few inches of gravel every 1-3 years for driveways depending on traffic, drainage, and plowing practices. Investing in a good compacted base, proper drainage, edge restraints, and occasional top dressing reduces long-term maintenance and cost.

When plowing a gravel driveway, use a plow with a floating blade or set the blade slightly above the surface to avoid removing gravel, and mark the driveway edges with stakes to protect edging. Clear snow promptly to reduce freeze-thaw damage and avoid aggressive scraping; replenish any lost material in spring and regrade shallow ruts. Avoid heavy de-icers that can damage vegetation; use sand or small amounts of salt where necessary for traction.

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.
