You can put gravel over properly prepared, well-compacted fill dirt, but you should usually add a crushed-stone base or geotextile fabric to prevent rutting and mixing. For driveways and walkways in Hazlehurst, ask our team about recommended base depths and preparation steps.

Ordering larger quantities from local suppliers, scheduling deliveries during off-peak times, and comparing nearby suppliers via Hello Gravel are cost-effective strategies. Be cautious with free fill from construction sites because it may contain debris or contamination.
