Stone in Little Rock, AR

Delivered stone prices in Little Rock typically range from about $25 to $60 per ton depending on stone size, color, and whether it is decorative or bulk crushed base. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and standard deliveries are scheduled 2+ business days after ordering; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Check your zip code at checkout for exact pricing and availability.

For driveways in Little Rock, 3/4" crushed stone (often sold as #57) or a 1-1/2" crushed base topped with 3/4" finish stone are the most common because they lock together and shed water. For patios and walkways, pea stone (3/8") or 1/4" crushed stone provide a comfortable walking surface and cleaner finish. Local suppliers often offer limestone or quartzite varieties that reflect Arkansas geology, so color and texture may vary.

Because Little Rock gets heavy summer rain and high humidity, choose angular, crushed stone that compacts well and promotes drainage rather than rounded decorative stone that can wash or migrate. Expect to regrade and add material after major storms, and install proper sub-base and drainage to avoid rutting and washouts. Regular maintenance like re-leveling and topping up loose stone every 1-3 years will keep surfaces stable in our climate.

Estimate using common driveway sizes and a 3" to 4" finished depth: a 1-car (10'x20') driveway usually needs about 2.5 to 3.5 tons, a 2-car (20'x20') needs about 5 to 7 tons, and a 3-car (30'x20') needs about 8 to 11 tons. These figures increase if you want a thicker compacted base (4" or more) or are filling low spots; order 5-10% extra to allow for compaction and grading. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, so small projects may be limited by that minimum.

Many local suppliers focus on material delivery only, but you can find landscapers and small contractors in Little Rock who handle spreading, base prep, and compaction. Simple spreading and compaction might run roughly $0.50 to $3.00 per square foot, while a full installation with excavation, fabric, edge restraints, and base can fall in the $3.00 to $8.00 per square foot range depending on scope. Always get multiple local quotes and confirm whether the price includes disposal of excavated material and compaction equipment.

Yes. City zoning, historic district rules, and individual HOA covenants can restrict driveway materials, curb cuts, and front-yard surfacing. Check the Little Rock Planning and Development Department for city requirements and review your HOA covenants before ordering stone to avoid compliance issues. If you’re unsure, ask Hello Gravel’s team or your local contractor for guidance before purchase.

For erosion control on steep or high-flow slopes in Little Rock, use larger, angular materials such as 1" to 3" crushed rock, riprap, or river rock sized for the site, combined with geotextile fabric and terraces or check dams as needed. Gabions or larger riprap are effective where concentrated flow occurs; for lower-gradient areas, angular crushed stone with a fabric underlayment works well. Always pair stone with proper drainage features to handle intense local rain events.

Material-only geotextile fabric typically adds about $0.10 to $0.40 per square foot, while installation can raise that to roughly $0.50 to $1.50 per square foot. Building a compacted crushed-stone base (2" to 4") commonly adds $0.50 to $2.00 per square foot depending on depth and contractor rates, which can increase total project cost by roughly 15% to 40% compared to stone-only delivery. These ranges vary with site access, slope, and local labor rates, so request a local estimate for an accurate total.

Crushed stone (angular, compactable) offers a balance of cost and stability for Little Rock driveways and handles rain better than pea gravel, which is cheaper but tends to migrate and rut. Asphalt is more durable and low-maintenance long term but has a higher upfront cost and is a permanent surface choice. For cost comparison, expect pea gravel to be the least expensive option up front, crushed stone mid-range, and asphalt or concrete toward the higher end; maintenance needs and longevity should guide your decision.
