Enter your driveway's length, width, and thickness to get tons of hot-mix asphalt needed and an estimated cost.
Estimate only — assumes compacted hot-mix asphalt at about 2 tons per cubic yard.
We convert your area and thickness into cubic yards, then multiply by asphalt's typical compacted density of about 2 tons per cubic yard (2.37 tonnes per cubic meter). Cost multiplies tons by your price per ton — get a quote from a paving contractor for labor and base prep.
2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) is standard for residential driveways over a compacted gravel base. Heavier vehicle traffic may call for more.
It depends on thickness — roughly 0.06 tons per sq ft at 2 in thick. Enter your dimensions above for an exact figure.
