Crushed Stone Delivery in Dallas
Dallas is home to roughly 1.3 million residents at the center of the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metro, with Irving, Mesquite, Grand Prairie, Garland and Carrollton all sitting on the same delivery network. That density of coverage keeps trucks moving through the area regularly, which shortens lead times on both small and large crushed stone orders.
How Much Crushed Stone You Need for a Dallas Project
Multiply length in feet by width in feet by depth in inches, divide the result by 324 to get cubic yards, then convert to tons at roughly 2,700 pounds per cubic yard. A backyard path 30 feet long, 3 feet wide and 3 inches deep comes out to a little under 1 ton. For a faster route to the same number, the calculator converts area and depth into tons without the manual steps.
Best Uses for Crushed Stone in Dallas
Crushed stone handles both decorative and structural jobs across a typical Dallas property:
- Driveways and parking pads built to handle daily vehicle traffic
- Compacted base under pavers, patios and concrete slabs
- French drains, footing backfill and drainage trenches
- Walking paths, dog runs and equipment storage areas
- Regrading soggy or eroded low spots so water drains through
Delivery and Lead Times in Dallas
A 3 ton order generally arrives within 1 to 2 business days. Orders of 8 tons and up typically move to same day or next day service, and 15 tons and up ships free of a delivery charge on a similar timeline. Coverage area and truck requirements are detailed on the page for delivery in Dallas.
Crushed Stone Sizes Available in Dallas
Crushed stone is not one product but a family of graded sizes, and Dallas delivery covers all of them:
- #57 Crushed Stone, the standard driveway and drainage grade
- #67 Stone, a smaller size often set under concrete
- #89 Crushed Stone, a fine grade for pipe bedding and tight fill
- #4 Crushed Stone, a coarser stone for drainage and heavy base
- 3/4" Crushed Stone, a versatile size for paths and driveways
- 3/8" Crushed Stone, a finer grade for compact walkways
- Crusher Run, a blended base material that compacts hard
Pricing Notes for Dallas
Per ton pricing steps down at higher quantities, so consolidating a project into one larger delivery usually beats splitting it across several smaller ones. Each size above is priced separately on its own Dallas page, and the statewide view of this material is on Crushed Stone in Texas.
| Order Size | Price per Ton | Delivery |
|---|---|---|
| 3 tons and up | $217 | 1 to 2 business days, delivery fee applies |
| 8 tons and up | $129 | Same or next day, delivery fee applies |
| 15 tons and up | $104 | Free delivery |
Ordering Crushed Stone in Dallas
Choose a grade from the sizes above, use the calculator to turn the project dimensions into a ton count, then place the order for a Dallas delivery address. Because pricing improves at 8 tons and again at 15 tons, checking the full job size before ordering usually saves more than ordering the smallest amount that seems sufficient.
About Crushed Stone
Crushed stone is quarried rock, mechanically crushed and screened into a specific graded size, then sold by the ton since a truck load is measured by weight rather than by scoop or bag. In the Dallas area it is the default choice for driveways, drainage lines and compacted base layers, because each fractured, angular piece locks against its neighbors under compaction instead of rolling loose the way smooth river gravel does. A cubic yard of the material weighs about 2,700 pounds once it settles into place.
Spread and tamped, gray crushed stone lets rain pass through rather than pooling on the surface, so it stays firm through wet weather instead of turning to mud like bare soil. It performs well as a finished driveway surface on its own, as a compacted sub base beneath pavers or a concrete slab, and as clean backfill around footings and drain pipe. Since the category spans several sizes rather than a single product, choosing the right grade before a Dallas delivery keeps coverage and cost on target.
What Crushed Stone costs in Dallas
Local Dallas yards quote crushed stone by the ton; the delivered number includes fuel, the truck, and the haul. Pricing in Dallas starts at $104 per ton on full-truck loads, which works out to roughly $140 per cubic yard at the typical density of 2700 lb per yard. A ton of this material spreads across about 80 sq ft when laid 3 inches deep, useful when you are sizing a patio base or a walkway run. Stacked against the rest of TX, this market is lower than the state average for crushed stone.
How crews use Crushed Stone in Dallas
In and around Dallas, crushed stone shows up most often on two project types. Most Dallas loads land in the 4 to 8 ton range, with full trucks on the books for larger pads and drives.
Delivery day in Dallas
A typical Dallas drop is dispatched from the closest yard with a two hour window and a heads-up call once the truck is loaded. Tandem trucks want a 12 ft lane in and out; tri-axles need 14 ft, and both want firm ground at the tipping spot so the load releases cleanly. Standard lead time on this lane is 24-48h, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.

Which crushed stone size is best for a Dallas driveway?
#57 Crushed Stone and 3/4" Crushed Stone are the usual picks for a finished driveway surface, since both compact into a firm layer without rolling underfoot. Crusher Run works well as the base beneath either one. Smaller grades like #89 or 3/8" fit walkways better than daily vehicle traffic.
How soon can a small crushed stone order reach a Dallas address?
A 3 ton order typically arrives in 1 to 2 business days. Moving up to 8 tons usually shortens that to same day or next day service, and orders of 15 tons and up ship free on a comparable schedule since larger loads are routed with priority.
Why is crushed stone cheaper per ton when I order more?
Delivery costs spread across more tons on a larger load, which lowers the effective rate per ton. In Dallas the price steps down from $217 per ton at 3 tons to $104 per ton at 15 tons and up, where the delivery fee also disappears entirely.
Does the Dallas delivery area reach Irving or Garland?
Yes. Irving, Mesquite, Grand Prairie, Garland and Carrollton are all part of the same regional delivery network as Dallas. Each order still ships to a single address, so a delivery placed for any of those cities runs on that city's own pricing tiers and lead times.
What is crusher run made of?
Crusher run blends crushed stone fragments of mixed sizes with stone dust, rather than being screened down to one uniform size. That mix compacts into a dense, tight surface, which is why it is a common choice for driveway and shed pad bases rather than a finished top layer.
Can crushed stone be used for drainage around a foundation?
Yes, crushed stone is a standard choice for foundation drainage because it lets water pass through instead of holding it against the wall. #4 Crushed Stone or #57 Crushed Stone are common picks for this job, often paired with a drain pipe wrapped in fabric.
How do I know how many tons to order for a Dallas patio base?
Measure the patio's length and width in feet and decide on a depth in inches, then run those figures through the calculator to get a ton count directly. Doing the math by hand works too: multiply length by width by depth, divide by 324, then convert cubic yards to tons.
Is it a problem to order slightly more crushed stone than the job needs?
Not really. Crushed stone holds up fine sitting outside, so leftover material stores for a future path, drainage fix or backfill job. Since pricing drops at higher order sizes, rounding up to the next tier sometimes costs close to the same as ordering the exact amount short.
