Gravel in Hortense, GA

Expect a range rather than a fixed price. For common driveway or landscaping gravel in the Hortense area, delivered prices typically fall roughly between $25 and $55 per ton depending on the material (pea gravel, crushed stone, or base), distance from the quarry, and seasonal demand. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order in many areas, so check total cost for the minimum order before you buy.

Hortense is a small community (about 4,140 residents), so there are fewer local suppliers than in larger cities. That can mean longer hauls and slightly higher delivery fees, but Hello Gravel’s network connects you with nearby regional suppliers and haulers to simplify ordering and scheduling. Always check avaIlability for your zip code and allow 2+ business days for standard delivery.

Cost depends on truck size and material. A typical tri-axle dump truck used in our network carries roughly 10–12 cubic yards (often equivalent to about 10–15 tons depending on material), and delivered loads in the Hortense area commonly range from about $300 to $900, depending on type of gravel and haul distance. For precise pricing get a quote through Hello Gravel and remember the minimum order may affect per-ton cost.

One ton of gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards, which covers roughly 230 sq ft at 1-inch depth, about 115 sq ft at 2-inch depth, and about 77 sq ft at 3-inch depth. Coverage will vary with stone size, compaction, and whether you are using the gravel as a loose top layer or compacted base. Use these numbers to estimate needs and then round up to allow for compaction and grading.

Because Hortense is small, the best prices often come from ordering in bulk from regional quarries or suppliers in the nearest supply hubs rather than tiny local yards. Compare per-ton price plus delivery, and consider getting quotes for 3+ ton minimums to lower unit cost. Hello Gravel can compare local suppliers and provide transparent pricing so you can choose the best option for your budget.

Do measure the area and decide the finished depth, mark or flag the delivery spot, and confirm truck access before delivery. Do ask about tailgate spreading at checkout (driver discretion) and plan for drainage and compaction. Don’t assume color and texture will exactly match photos, don’t place gravel against wood siding or block gutters, and don’t forget to account for settling when ordering quantities.

For driveways in the Hortense area, a layered approach usually works best: a compactable base like 3/4" crushed stone for structure, topped with a 3/8" crushed stone or pea gravel for appearance and traction. For general landscaping and beds, pea gravel or small river rock works well for drainage and look. Local soil and rainfall in southeast Georgia affect drainage, so choose a material that sheds water and compact base layers where vehicles will travel.

Natural materials vary by region, so color, texture, and stone mix can differ from photos. If the delivered material is substantially different from your order, contact Hello Gravel customer service as soon as possible so we can work with the supplier on a resolution. Keep photos of the delivered pile and your original order notes to speed up the process.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
