Driveway Gravel.

Some of you are in construction, so I figured I would see if I can get any feedback here. I am in charge of getting about 7 tons of gravel for our church, and was quoted $268.00 delivered from a local business. It's ODOT#304 limestone (probably wont mean much to anyone here), dont know if anyone would know if this is a good price or not, it sounds very reasonable to me.

check craigslist

[Chief Pote]

Is that installed or just delivered?

[Chief Pote]

You should be able to buy 304 at around 10.00 per ton, not including delivery or installation. Check Columbus Limestone on Jackson Pike.

Don't know about limestone...but I got 50 tons of base rock delivered here to my place awhile back for about $500. He had to haul it about 15 miles per load...

What is involved? Rock and hauling? Rock, Hauling and spreading?

I just made a call to my cousin in the business. A 16ton load delivered is around $250 here.

The rock itself for road rock is $11.30/ton

Prices may be higher there, and trucking probably depends on how far they have to haul it.

Wow that's high. I'm in a rural area....I know an old guy that likes to stay busy between his school bus routes. Our base rock is bout $5 per ton at the quarry.

I suppose it depends on how abundant the product is in your area.
Size and quality of the limestone affect it also.

Yeah I found some other prices, and it's not cheap anywhere around here. Of course these prices included delivery. The cheapest I found is $12.45 a ton.

IMO, $268 delivered for 7 tons of anything is a fair price.

I think that $268 for 7 tons of bloody urine is WAY too much.

That's just one man's opinion though.

[mikeyis4dcats.]

we don't use 304 but KS AB-3 is $17.80 delivered. That is the standard for drives and subbase around here.

That's what happens when you put it between the rock and a hard place ..... :shake:

Why not just as God to deliver? Doesn't he always come thru?

[|Zach|]

That seems like a really low price.
