Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.

A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.

Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Boone Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Boone is a growing hometown with a city population of 19,673 and part of a broader metro area of 2.3+ million. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually, local renovation and small-scale construction projects are common as homeowners update driveways, paths, and drainage systems. Boone’s climate—228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, in hardiness zone 8b—creates conditions that require materials able to handle both wet spells and extended sun. Sloped yards and seasonal ground movement make stable surfacing important, so homeowners look for quality aggregates like gravel to manage runoff, reduce mud, and provide durable, low-maintenance surfaces that match local geology and site conditions.Popular Projects in Boone This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Boone gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Boone.
Costs vary by material, supplier, and distance from local quarries. A typical tri-axle dump truck in our network carries about 10-14 tons; expect roughly $30-$75 per ton delivered in the Boone area, so a single truckload can range from about $300 to $1,050. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and can get you exact local pricing and delivery options for your zip code.
On average 1 ton of gravel covers about 80-100 square feet at a 1-inch depth. At 2 inches of depth the same ton covers about 40-50 square feet. Actual coverage depends on stone size, compaction, and whether you are using angular crushed stone or rounded rock.
Material needed depends on depth: at 2 inches, 1,000 sq ft uses about 6-7 cubic yards (around 8-9 tons); at 3 inches it uses about 9-10 cubic yards (around 12-14 tons). Using a typical local delivered price of $35-$60 per ton, expect material costs roughly $300-$900, not including site prep, spreading, or special delivery fees. Contact Hello Gravel for a custom quote that reflects local suppliers and delivery to Boone.
For Boone's mountain terrain and freeze-thaw cycles, crushed stone such as 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone is commonly used for driveways because it compacts well and sheds water. Crusher run (stone with fines) is a good, lower-cost base layer, while decorative river rock or screened gravel works for patios and landscaping. Local suppliers often reflect Appalachian geology, so color and texture will vary by source.
Costs depend on length, depth, and prep. For example, a 20 ft by 100 ft driveway at about 3 inches compacted needs roughly 26 tons of material; at $35-$60 per ton that is about $910-$1,560 for material only, plus site prep, grading, and delivery. Slopes, drainage work, or heavier required depths will raise the price; request a quote to get a precise Boone estimate.
Generally no. For Boone's slopes and freeze-thaw conditions we recommend at least a 3-4 inch compacted surface for light residential use, with a compacted base course beneath (4-6 inches of larger stone). Heavier vehicles or poor soils may require 6 inches or more of compacted aggregate. Drivers may be able to tailgate-spread at their discretion, but spreading is not guaranteed.
It depends on the driveway width and depth. As an example, a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth needs about 15-16 tons. Use the formula: cubic yards = (length ft * width ft * depth ft) / 27, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.35-1.5 to convert to tons depending on the stone type.
A 7x14 trailer's capacity depends on side height. With 12-inch sides it holds about 3.4 cubic yards; with 18-inch sides it holds about 5-6 cubic yards. In tons that is roughly 4.5 to 8.5 tons of gravel, depending on material density and how full the trailer is permitted to be.
A well-built gravel driveway can last many years, but it requires regular maintenance. Expect routine maintenance and spot grading every 1-3 years and top-ups of additional gravel every 3-6 years; a full rebuild may be needed every 10-20 years depending on traffic and drainage. Boone's freeze-thaw cycles and steep slopes make drainage and occasional regrading particularly important.
Buying in bulk from a local quarry, choosing more basic materials like crusher run or bank run, and picking up material yourself will usually be the least expensive options. Recycled crushed concrete can also be cheaper if available locally. Hello Gravel can help compare local supplier prices and arrange delivery (minimum 3 tons) so you can see delivered cost options for Boone.
Crusher run (also called crush and run or bank run) and recycled crushed concrete are typically the least expensive options because they combine varied sizes and fines that compact well. They are practical for base layers and budget driveways but may be less attractive than washed or decorative gravels. Availability and price depend on local quarries, so cost can vary across the Boone area.
Boone is in mountainous terrain, so hauling distances, steep or winding roads, and limited local quarry capacity can increase trucking and labor costs. Seasonal demand, winter weather, and the need for proper drainage and base preparation to handle freeze-thaw cycles also add to project costs. Hello Gravel works with local suppliers to provide transparent pricing and delivery options that reflect those local factors.
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.
