Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Newport Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Newport has a city population of 19,470 and sits within a growing regional economy—the surrounding metro area has a population of 2.3+ million and is expanding at a 2.80% annual rate. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local homeowners balance sun-loving plantings with the need to manage periodic heavy rains. That mix drives steady demand for quality aggregates: gravel is used for driveways, pathways, drainage trenches, and erosion control in yards where both good drainage and visual curb appeal matter. Homeowners and small contractors in Newport commonly look for reliable materials that perform well in both dry, sunny spells and heavier seasonal showers. Gravel is well suited to Newport’s climate when you pick the right grade and gradation. A coarse, well-graded gravel reduces washout in areas with 34.00 inches of annual rainfall while reflecting the local geology for natural color and texture. For patios, walkways, and French drains, gravel provides permeability that helps protect foundations and landscaped beds. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and professional truck delivery so you can pick the right gravel for your project, schedule a convenient delivery date, and get material sourced to reflect Newport’s regional conditions.Popular Projects in Newport This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Newport gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Newport.
Yes. Gravel is a practical, cost-effective choice for driveways, walkways, and drainage features in Newport due to the town's coastal soils and frequent heavy rain events. Choose a durable, crushed stone base and proper grading to manage storm runoff and prevent rutting.
Local suppliers commonly offer crushed stone (3/4"), pea gravel, washed river rock, and shell blends near the coast. Regional sourcing means you may also see oyster shell or coquina mixes in some loads, so ask your supplier about composition if you want a specific look or performance.
Hello Gravel sources material from local suppliers near Newport and coordinates delivery by contracted dump truck fleets. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST; minimum order is 3 tons and delivery typically arrives on tri-axle dump trucks.
Choose hard, durable rock like crushed granite or other quarried stone that resists breakdown in wet, salty conditions. Washed stone with good drainage also helps prevent standing water; avoid soft carbonate stones if you expect frequent salt exposure and heavy freeze-thaw cycles.
Rough estimates: one cubic yard covers about 324 sq ft at 1" depth, so at a 3" depth one cubic yard covers roughly 108 sq ft. For a 12 x 25 ft (300 sq ft) driveway at 3" depth you would need about 3 cubic yards, which typically weighs around 3.5 to 4 tons—above Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum.
Newport's coastal weather, with heavy seasonal rains and occasional storms, makes drainage the top priority when choosing and installing gravel. Proper slope, a compacted base, and edge restraints will keep gravel in place and reduce washout during heavy rains or hurricanes.
Hello Gravel serves Newport where available; enter your zip code to check service and get pricing. Expect delivery on a contracted dump truck (usually tri-axle), standard lead time of 2+ business days, a 3-ton minimum order, and an option to request tailgate spreading at checkout—drivers may do it at their discretion.
Not always. Due to regional sourcing and natural variation, color, texture, and shell content can differ from online images; this is especially true in coastal Newport where shell mixes are common. You can note color preferences in Order Notes, but exact matches are not guaranteed.
Possibly. Some neighborhoods and HOAs near Newport restrict loose gravel for aesthetic or drainage reasons, and city or county permits may apply for driveways or curb cuts. Check local zoning, your HOA rules, and any county regulations before ordering to avoid surprises.
Gravel can support heavy loads if installed with the right base: a compacted sub-base, geotextile fabric, and a thicker layer of crushed stone are recommended for repeated heavy traffic. For construction or truck access on soft coastal soils, increase depth and consider a packed base to reduce rutting.
Install a geotextile weed barrier and edge restraints to reduce migration and weed growth, then top up high-traffic areas every few years. Regular raking to redistribute stone and prompt removal of organic debris will extend the life and appearance of gravel in Newport's humid coastal climate.
Contact Hello Gravel customer service promptly with photos and details of the delivery; keep a sample and note delivery time and truck ID if possible. We will work with you and the supplier to resolve the issue according to our refund and resolution process.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
