#57 Crushed Stone Delivery and Lead Times Around Odessa
Getting #57 crushed stone delivery to a jobsite in Odessa, TX starts with picking a tonnage tier. Three to seven tons goes out within one to two business days. Eight tons and up typically ships same day or the next business day. Once an order reaches 15 tons, the delivery fee disappears entirely, and that is also the tier with the lowest per-ton rate. Delivery in Odessa runs on standard routes across the Permian Basin, so a driver already routed through the area can usually work a morning drop into the same trip. Trucks generally load early, so a morning appointment leaves the most flexibility if a job runs long.
About Odessa and Where This Stone Gets Used
Odessa anchors the Midland metro area in West Texas, home to roughly 120,000 people spread across a landscape shaped by wide open ground and long sightlines. Midland itself sits about 23 miles east, and beyond that there is no other city close enough to fold into this page, so everything here is written for Odessa specifically. Soil in this part of the state tends toward caliche and hard clay, dry most of the year with occasional heavy rains that can erode an unprotected slope fast. A compacted stone base handles both conditions better than bare dirt does. Wind is a bigger factor here than in most of the state, and a settled stone surface sheds blowing dust better than loose dirt or a bare gravel drive that has not been compacted.
Where Contractors Use It On Odessa Jobs
is a 3/4 inch to 1 inch angular gray stone with no fines mixed in, and around Odessa it shows up most as a driveway base, a yard pad base, and drainage fill along runs where dust and grit would otherwise wash into a low spot after a hard rain. Its rough, angular faces bite into each other under compaction, which keeps it from shifting the way smoother river rock does under truck and equipment traffic. Rural and ranch-style properties around Odessa also use it for driveway aprons and gate entrances, where a hard, well-drained surface holds up better than bare caliche. Property owners with long unpaved access roads often order it in bulk specifically because it holds its shape mile after mile of truck and trailer traffic without rutting the way native dirt does.
Ton Pricing in Odessa: What Moves the Rate
This stone is priced and delivered by the ton around Odessa, not by volume. The rate drops in three steps as the order size grows: smaller loads cost more per ton because the truck runs a shorter, less efficient route, while a full 15-ton-plus load spreads the trip's cost over enough material to bring the price down. Checkout calculates the exact number for the Odessa ZIP automatically, so treat the figures below as a guide rather than a locked-in total.
| Order size | Price per ton | Typical lead time |
|---|---|---|
| 3 to 7 tons | $213 | 1 to 2 business days |
| 8 to 14 tons | $125 | Same or next business day |
| 15 tons or more | $99 | Free delivery included |
Working Out Your Tonnage
The base formula, length times width times depth in inches over 324, gives you cubic yards first; from there, convert to tons since #57 crushed stone weighs more per cubic yard than lighter fill material does. Rather than running that conversion by hand, plug your measurements into the stone calculator and it returns a ready tonnage figure along with the price tier it falls into. Most driveway bases in this area run 3 to 4 inches deep, though a heavier-use pad may call for more.
Placing an Order
Enter your address or ZIP at checkout along with the tonnage you calculated, and the site prices the load and books a delivery window in the same step. When the number falls between two tiers, ordering up to the next tier is usually cheaper overall once the per-ton rate drop is figured in, and any leftover stone stores fine for the next project instead of going to waste. For other grades or cities across the state, the Texas hub for #57 crushed stone lists every location this material currently ships to.
About #57 Crushed Stone
#57 crushed stone is a crushed, angular gray aggregate sized to roughly 3/4 inch to 1 inch, screened clean of sand and smaller fragments. It comes from quarried limestone or granite that gets crushed down and sorted, leaving a uniform stone that locks together once compacted rather than shifting loose the way rounded gravel does. A cubic yard weighs in around 2,700 pounds, considerably heavier than the same volume of mulch or garden soil, and that weight difference is exactly why it ships and prices by the ton instead of by the yard.
Because the stone is open graded, meaning there are gaps between the pieces rather than fine material packed in to fill them, water passes straight through it instead of collecting on the surface. That makes it useful under driveways, along drainage runs, and beneath pads or sheds that need a stable, dry footing rather than a surface that turns soft after rain.
The color is gray with some natural variation from batch to batch, and the texture stays rough and angular rather than smooth, which is the main reason it interlocks and resists shifting under vehicle weight, foot traffic or equipment loads in a way that smoother, rounder stone cannot match.
What #57 Crushed Stone costs in Odessa
Around Odessa, #57 crushed stone is quoted by the ton with delivery layered in based on distance from the closest yard. Send your ZIP and load size and we will send back a same-hour quote with the truck rate and the per-ton figure spelled out.

How crews use #57 Crushed Stone in Odessa
Odessa contractors keep #57 crushed stone on the order sheet for a short list of standard installs. Top of the list is driveway gravel, where the material is rolled out in tight urban lots and infill builds and screeded to grade. Right behind that is drainage gravel, common in dense neighborhoods where curb access is short and often paired with edging or fabric below the lift. Odessa sits at about 119,748 residents, which means we see steady weekday traffic from landscape crews and weekend pickups from owner-builders.
Delivery day in Odessa
Delivery in Odessa runs out of the nearest pit; you get a two hour arrival window the evening prior and a call when the driver leaves the scale. Plan for 12 ft of clear path for a tandem and 14 ft for a tri-axle, plus a level area at the dump point so the bed lifts straight. Standard lead time on this lane is Mon-Sat, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.

How big are the pieces in #57 crushed stone?
The stone is screened to a narrow range, roughly 3/4 inch up to 1 inch, with no sand or dust mixed through it. That size holds together under weight without turning slick or muddy, and it is coarse enough to move with a shovel instead of needing power equipment for small jobs like a walkway base.
Does #57 crushed stone work on caliche soil?
Yes. A compacted base layer of this stone sits on top of caliche and spreads the load, so vehicles and foot traffic do not grind directly into the softer native ground below. It also drains better than bare caliche does after a heavy rain, which matters in West Texas where storms tend to arrive fast and hard.
How is #57 crushed stone different from pea gravel?
Pea gravel is small and rounded, so it rolls and shifts underfoot. #57 crushed stone is usually reserved for walkways and decorative beds instead.
How much #57 crushed stone do I need for a driveway?
Measure the driveway's length and width in feet, pick a depth, most run 3 to 4 inches, and run those numbers through the calculator on this page. It converts the volume into a tonnage figure automatically, so you are not stuck doing the depth math and the weight conversion by hand.
How quickly can I get delivery in Odessa?
Loads of 3 to 7 tons typically ship within 1 to 2 business days. Orders of 8 tons or more tend to go out same day or the next business day since the truck is already carrying a fuller load on that run. Enter your address at checkout to see the specific window available.
Is there a minimum order?
Pricing here starts at 2 tons, close to the practical floor for a delivered load. If a project needs less than that, a local yard that sells by the scoop or the bag is usually a better fit than scheduling a full delivery.
Will #57 crushed stone need to be compacted?
It settles reasonably well on its own, but a plate compactor run over the top lift locks the angular pieces together and keeps the surface from rutting under vehicle weight. Skipping that step still leaves a usable base, it just will not hold up quite as long under heavy or repeated traffic.
Do you deliver this stone to Midland as well?
Yes, Midland and the rest of the surrounding area are served on the same delivery routes as Odessa, with pricing calculated by ZIP code at checkout. The statewide hub lists every Texas city currently covered if you are ordering for a site outside this immediate area.
