Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Walkway Gravel
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.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). 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 Mar-Mac Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mar-Mac is a growing community of about 11,000 residents within a larger metro of 2.4+ million, and homeowners here are increasingly investing in outdoor projects as the area expands at a steady 0.69% annually. With a moderate climate in hardiness zone 8b, 228 sunny days a year, and 33.90 inches of annual rainfall, local projects benefit from a long building season but also require materials that handle periodic rain and sun exposure. Gravel is a practical choice for Mar-Mac homeowners because it combines durability, low maintenance, and effective surface drainage—qualities that reduce erosion, limit standing water, and extend the life of driveways, pathways, and garden beds. Homeowners choose quality aggregates to avoid rutting, minimize weed growth, and maintain curb appeal with materials that match the regional geology.Popular Projects in Mar-Mac This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mar-Mac gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mar-Mac.
Typical delivered gravel prices in the Mar-Mac area usually range from about $40 to $85 per ton depending on the type (pea gravel, crushed stone, crusher-run) and local availability. Delivery fees, the amount ordered, and seasonal demand can move the price up or down, so get an exact quote for your zip code. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum on most orders and can show you any delivery charges before checkout.
One cubic yard of crushed gravel in the Mar-Mac area commonly costs about $55 to $120 per cubic yard delivered, which reflects typical material densities of roughly 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. The exact price depends on the gravel grade, supplier, and delivery distance. Use a quote to compare exact per-yard pricing for your project.
A typical tri-axle dump truck in our network carries roughly 10 to 12 tons (about 8 to 12 cubic yards) of gravel and a full truckload in Mar-Mac usually costs in the range of $400 to $1,000. Final cost depends on the material type, truck access, and whether you need any spreading or special placement. Contact Hello Gravel for a tailored quote so you know the exact load size and price.
Cost depends on the driveway width and depth, but as an example a 200 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth requires about 18.5 cubic yards (roughly 26 tons). At $40 to $85 per ton, that example would cost about $1,040 to $2,210 for material and basic delivery; additional grading, compaction, or extra depth will increase the price. Ask for a site-specific quote to account for access, removal, and contractor charges.
It depends on your truck's payload rating. One cubic yard of gravel can weigh about 1.2 to 1.5 tons and often exceeds the safe payload of a half-ton pickup; many homeowners safely carry 0.5 to 0.75 cubic yards in smaller pickups. Check your truck's payload in the owner's manual before hauling and consider ordering delivery from Hello Gravel if you need more material or want to avoid overloading.
For most Mar-Mac driveways we recommend an angular crushed stone as a base (commonly called crusher-run or 3/4" minus) because it locks together and drains reasonably well. Top layers can be a smaller crushed stone or recycled stone depending on appearance and maintenance preferences. Because eastern North Carolina soils can be clayey and hold moisture, consider proper base depth and drainage when choosing material.
Coverage depends on depth: as a rule of thumb, one ton of crushed gravel covers about 100 sq ft at 2 inches depth, about 65 to 70 sq ft at 3 inches, and about 50 sq ft at 4 inches. Different stone sizes and moisture contents change these numbers slightly, so use them as estimates. For exact planning, convert to cubic yards first and then to tons using material-specific density.
Measure the area in square feet, multiply by desired depth in feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards (area * depth / 27 = cubic yards). Multiply cubic yards by about 1.2 to 1.5 to estimate tons (material-dependent) and add 5 to 10 percent for compaction and waste. You can also use Hello Gravel's online calculator or request help from our team to get a precise order quantity.
Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries are made by local contracted dump truck fleets (usually tri-axle trucks); drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but that service is not guaranteed. Make sure the truck has clear access to the drop location and add any placement notes at checkout to avoid delays.
Yes, you can indicate color or material preferences in the Order Notes, but availability depends on local supplier stock and regional geology, so exact matches to photos cannot be guaranteed. Hello Gravel will do our best to source materials that meet your preferences and will show material type and typical characteristics in the product listing. If color or texture is critical, request photos from the supplier before delivery or order a small sample first.
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.
