Crushed gravel is made by breaking larger rock into angular pieces so it locks together well for driveways and bases. Natural gravel (rounded) is smoothed by water and is better for decorative uses and drainage but can shift more under traffic. In West Georgia, you may find both types depending on local quarries.

3/4" crushed gravel (about three-quarter inch pieces) is commonly used for driveways, under patio pavers, and as a base for sheds because it compacts well and drains. It works well in Midville where soils can be clay-heavy, providing a stable, permeable layer. Ask for delivery and spreading notes at checkout if you want the driver to assess tailgate spreading.

The most common types are crushed stone (angular), pea gravel (small rounded stones), and river rock (larger rounded stones for decorative use). Each serves different purposes: crushed for structural bases, pea gravel for walkways and play areas, and river rock for accents or drainage. Regional suppliers near Midville may offer variations in color and texture.

A tri-axle dump truck typically carries about 10 to 16 tons of gravel; cost depends on the tons, material type, and delivery distance. Expect a wide range roughly from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars for a full truckload, including delivery; exact pricing is avaIlable after you enter your zip code. Hello Gravel handles the coordination and can provide a firm quote and delivery window.

The most economical options are ordering bulk crushed stone or crusher-run from a local supplier, picking up directly if you can haul it, or ordering larger quantities to lower the per-ton price. Keep in mind Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum for delivery, so combine small jobs or split costs with neighbors to make delivery cost-effective. Always compare material type and delivery fees before deciding.

Costs vary by depth, material, and labor, but a small 20-foot driveway (for example 20 ft long by 10 ft wide at 3" depth) will need about 2 to 3 tons of gravel. Because Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum, expect to pay for at least 3 tons plus delivery, so installed material cost often runs from a couple hundred dollars depending on gravel type.

No natural gravel hardens like concrete on its own. Some mixes such as crusher-run or stabilized aggregates compact and bind more tightly when combined with fines or additives, giving a hard-packed surface, but they do not reach concrete strength. For true pavement strength you would need to use concrete or a stabilized base with pRoper binders.

Avoid pea gravel for high-traffic driveways, steep slopes, or where heavy vehicles need traction because it shifts and can make driving or walking difficult. It also migrates into lawns and flower beds in areas with clay soils common in West Georgia. Use pea gravel instead for patios, play areas, or decorative borders where shifting is less of a problem.

You can, but it usually leads to mixing with topsoil and sinking over time—especially on the clay soils common around Midville. Best practice is to remove vegetation, compact the soil, add a geotextile fabric, and install a base layer of crushed stone before placing the finished gravel. That prep improves drainage and extends the life of the surface.

Coverage depends on depth: one ton of typical crushed gravel covers about 110 to 120 sq ft at 2" depth, about 75 to 80 sq ft at 3" depth, and roughly 55 to 60 sq ft at 4" depth. Exact coverage varies with stone type and compaction, so measure your area and choose your desired depth before ordering. Use our material calculator for a location-specific estimate.

A single cubic yard of gravel will usually fit in the bed of a full-size pickup, but weight can exceed the truck’s payload limit—the material may weigh 2,000 to 3,000 pounds depending on type. For safety and to meet Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum delivery policy, it's often better to order delivery by dump truck rather than trying to haul it yourself. If you plan to pick up, check your truck’s payload rating first.

The least expensive materials are typically crusher-run, bank run, or screenings because they include a mix of fines that pack well and are easy to produce. These materials are great for base layers and driveways but have a different finish than decorative gravels. Compare local supplier prices through Hello Gravel to find the best option for your budget.

In West Georgia around Midville, locally sourced gravel often reflects Piedmont geology—expect tan, off-white, and pinkish tones from weathered granite and schist. Color and texture vary by supplier, so samples or photos from your local supplier can help you pick the look you want. Add color preferences in the Order Notes at checkout and we will try to match them when possible.

There is no single best color—choose based on your house color, desired contrast, and maintenance needs: lighter colors stay cooler and show less dust, while darker gravels can hide stains but absorb more heat. For Midville homes, neutral tans and grays are popular because they blend with local landscapes and seasonal plantings. If you care about appearance, ask for a sample or local photo before ordering.
