Crushed stone (3/4" minus or 1"-size base), pea gravel, and screenings are the most common choices for driveways and farm lanes in Warren County. Crushed stone is preferred for a stable, compacted base; pea gravel or river rock is often used as a wearing surface for appearance; screenings are used as a binding topcoat. Choice depends on traffic, budget, and maintenance willingness.

Warrenton's clay-rich soils hold water and drain slowly, which can cause rutting and loss of support under gravel, especially after heavy rain. To improve longevity, install a compacted crushed-stone base, use geotextile fabric where water pooling occurs, provide surface drainage (crowns or swales), and top with a wearing layer. Regular maintenance—occasional regrading and adding fresh gravel after wet seasons—helps prevent washouts.

Most private driveways on private property do not require a permit, but adding gravel where you connect to a county or state road may require a permit or permit review. If your work affects a county road, roadside ditch, or a state route, contact Warren County Public Works and the Georgia DOT before starting. When in doubt, check with local officials to avoid road-closure or drainage issues.

Warrenton is served by regional quarries and local aggregate suppliers; Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and haulers in the area. Our platform minimum order is 3 tons; local suppliers commonly require 3-5 ton minimums and may charge extra for long hauls, steep drives, or short-notice deliveries. For supplier names, exact minimums, and local haul fees, request a quote with your zip code so we can match you to nearby vendors.

For a standard 2-car driveway on typical West Georgia clay soils, aim for a compacted base of 4-6 inches of crushed stone plus a 2-3 inch wearing layer of pea gravel or crushed stone. For heavier farm access lanes or equipment use, plan 6-12 inches of compacted base (graded and well-compacted) with a wearing surface on top. Proper compaction in 2- to 3-inch lifts with a plate compactor and good drainage are essential for long life.

As a rule of thumb using typical crushed stone density, one ton covers about 120 sq ft at 2 inches, about 80 sq ft at 3 inches, and about 60 sq ft at 4 inches. That means 1,000 sq ft requires roughly 8.3 tons at 2", 12.5 tons at 3", and 16.7 tons at 4". Always round up for compaction, grading losses, and to allow a margin for settling.

Yes—geotextile fabric is commonly used in West Georgia over clay subgrade to improve performance; it reduces mixing of soil and aggregate and helps drainage. Landscape-grade fabric material can run about $0.20-$0.60 per sq ft in material cost, while heavier geogrids or woven textiles cost more and are often installed by contractors. Polymer/resin stabilizers and interlocking grid systems are also available; installed costs range widely (roughly $2-$6 per sq ft) depending on product and labor, so get local quotes for accuracy.

Clear vegetation, mark any underground utilities, and establish the final grades and any drainage features before delivery. If you plan to use geotextile fabric or a crushed-stone base, install and compact those layers before the wearing surface is dumped. Communicate access constraints and any desired drop location in your Hello Gravel order notes so the driver and supplier can plan delivery safely.

Expect routine maintenance: regrading ruts and adding a fresh wearing layer every 1-3 years depending on traffic and rainfall. Maintain drainage by keeping ditches and culverts clear and re-establishing a center crown as needed to shed water. For heavy-use lanes, periodic scarifying and re-compaction plus spot repairs after storms will extend life and reduce long-term costs.

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