The most popular choices in West Georgia are crushed stone (like 3/4" crushed limestone) for driveways because it compacts well, pea gravel for patios and decorative areas, and river rock for drainage beds and accent work. Crushed concrete is also commonly used as a cost-saving base material. Choice depends on traffic, look, and drainage needs.

Estimate volume first: length x width x depth (in feet), divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.3 to 1.5 to convert cubic yards to tons (depends on the gravel type). Example: a 100 ft x 10 ft driveway at 4 in depth is about 12.3 cubic yards, or roughly 16 to 19 tons. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or provide your dimensions for a precise estimate.

Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries and landscape suppliers that serve Rossville and West Georgia, so availability reflects local geology. Delivery is by contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle) with a 3-ton minimum; standard delivery takes 2+ business days and next-day is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.

Rossville's warm, humid climate and clay-prone soils mean drainage matters—crushed stone is best where compaction and load-bearing are needed because it forms a stable, permeable surface. Pea gravel and river rock allow good drainage but can migrate and aren't ideal for heavy-traffic driveways without an edge and stable base. In rainy spots, add a compacted crushed stone base and consider geotextile fabric or drainage swales to prevent washout.

Costs depend on site prep, access, grading, and base depth; a simple contractor-installed gravel driveway often ranges widely from about $30 to $80 per ton installed (material, delivery, and labor included). Small DIY installs reduce cost to material only, while full contractor jobs with excavation and drainage work can run several thousand dollars depending on size. Get local quotes that list base prep, compacting, and edging as separate line items.

Expect routine maintenance every 1 to 3 years: regrading to smooth ruts, topping up with 1/2 to 1 inch of new gravel, and keeping edges and drainage clear. With proper base, edging, and periodic replenishment, a gravel driveway in this area can perform well for 10 to 25 years, but high-traffic spots and poor drainage shorten that lifespan. Regular maintenance after heavy rains is especially important in West Georgia.

Yes, crushed concrete is a common cost-saving option for bases and even finished surfaces; it compacts well and is often less expensive than virgin stone. Consider that color, texture, and pH can differ from natural stone and some HOAs may have restrictions, so request a sample and confirm local acceptance. Hello Gravel can source recycled materials when available in your area.

Gravel has a lower upfront cost but requires more ongoing maintenance (regrading, topping up) and can rut or wash out without proper base and drainage. Asphalt and concrete cost more upfront but tend to need less frequent material replenishment and provide a smoother, lower-maintenance surface over time. For Rossville's climate, choose gravel if you want lower initial cost and permeability; choose asphalt or concrete if you prefer lower long-term labor and a finished look.

Best practice is to start with a compacted subgrade, add geotextile fabric where soils are soft, then install a 4 to 6 inch compacted base of crushed stone followed by a 1 to 2 inch top layer of your finish gravel. Use solid edging—concrete curb, pavers, treated timber, or steel/stone edging—to keep material in place and reduce migration. Also design positive drainage (swales or French drains) to carry water away from the gravel surface.
