Decorative Stone & Rock in Nashville, GA

Prices vary by stone type and availability, but expect a range of about $40 to $150 per ton in West Georgia. Common items like pea gravel or crushed granite are near the low end ($40-$70/ton), while specialty stones like marble chips or polished river rock run $80-$150/ton. One cubic yard is roughly 1.3–1.4 tons, so multiply per-ton prices by that factor for per-yard estimates; final delivered price depends on type, local quarry margins, and hauling distance.

Locally available types typically include pea gravel, river rock, crushed granite, crushed limestone, and occasional marble or quartz chips depending on the supplier. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, color and texture reflect West Georgia geology—expect tan, brown, red, and gray tones rather than perfect matches to online photos. If you need a specific color or stone type, note it in your order and we can check local supplier availability before delivery.

Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, which suits small landscaping jobs. Deliveries are usually made by tri-axle dump trucks (common capacity 10–12 cubic yards), and in very rural areas some suppliers may require larger minimums or a full-truck load to justify the trip. If you need less than a truckload or want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout; drivers can provide spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed.

In West Georgia's heat and humidity, darker stones can absorb and radiate heat, making walkways feel hotter in summer, while lighter stones reflect heat and stay cooler. Heavy rainfall and clay soils increase the risk of stone migration and sinking, so proper base preparation and drainage are essential. Expect some algae, moss, or staining in shaded, moist spots; occasional rinsing and top-up of stone is a normal maintenance step.

Possibly. Nashville is in Berrien County, and city or county rules and private HOA covenants can restrict front-yard materials, drainage changes, and impervious surface treatments. Before ordering, contact the City of Nashville or Berrien County planning office and check your HOA covenants to confirm setbacks, drainage requirements, and any permit needs.

Yes. Hello Gravel connects customers with trusted local suppliers and haulers in West Georgia to deliver materials to Nashville addresses. For installation, we recommend local landscape contractors or garden centers in Berrien County and nearby towns; if you need recommendations, our sales team can point you toward local installers or advise how to find qualified contractors.

Customers typically ask how much material they need, what depth is right for their project, whether to use landscape fabric, and if the stone will migrate or wash out in heavy rain. They also ask about color options and how hot the stone will get in summer. We answer with recommended depths, coverage calculators, and tips on base and edging to reduce migration and improve drainage.

Use this quick method: 1 cubic yard covers about 108 sq ft at 3 inches depth, and 1 cubic yard weighs roughly 1.3–1.4 tons. Example: a 10x10 patio (100 sq ft) at 2 inches needs about 0.62 cubic yards or ~0.9 tons. For a typical 20x50 driveway (1,000 sq ft) at 4 inches you would need about 12.3 cubic yards or ~17 tons; always round up and add 5–10% for compaction and grading.

Demand peaks in spring and early summer, so prices and delivery times can be higher then; late fall and winter are often quieter with better availability and sometimes lower prices. Heavy rain or hurricane season can delay quarry work and deliveries, so order early for spring projects and plan deliveries around local weather forecasts. Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for qualifying orders placed before noon CST, which can help skip seasonal delays when stock is available.

On clay, build a stable base: remove topsoil, install geotextile fabric, add and compact a 4–6 inch layer of crushed stone as a base for paths (6–8 inches or more for driveways), then add the decorative stone on top. Use proper edge restraints to stop migration and slope the surface to shed water away from foundations and driveways. Good compaction and drainage are the best defenses against sinking and washout in clay-rich areas.

Not exactly. Natural decorative stones vary by quarry and region, so color, size, and texture will reflect local geology in West Georgia. Photos are a useful guide but expect some variation; if a close color match is critical, request a sample or note color preferences in your order and we will check supplier inventory before confirming delivery.

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

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
