Gravel in Bluff City, TN

Prices vary by material and supplier, but in Bluff City expect common driveway and base gravels to run roughly $25 to $55 per ton delivered. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; final price depends on stone type, delivery distance, and any spreading requested.

For a long-lasting surface, start with a well-compacted subgrade and add a 4" to 6" crushed stone base for driveways. For lighter paths or flower beds, lay a geotextile fabric to control weeds and stabilize soil, then add 2" to 3" of gravel on top; fabric helps in Bluff City's seasonal freeze-thaw cycles but must allow drainage.

Gravel is sold by the ton or by the cubic yard; a common conversion is about 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons (varies by stone type). As a rule of thumb, one ton of gravel covers about 120 square feet at a 2" depth; remember Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons.

Clean stone (sometimes called no-fines or drainage stone) is crushed rock with most fines removed so it drains freely. Use it where drainage matters, such as under French drains, around foundations, or as a base layer beneath pavers; it is less suited as a decorative topping because it compacts less and is more angular.

Cost depends on width and depth. For a typical 12' wide driveway resurfaced with 3" of gravel you would need about 29 tons, costing roughly $870 to $1,595 at $30–$55/ton delivered; a full rebuild with a 6" base plus 3" top needs about 87 tons, costing roughly $2,600 to $4,800. These estimates exclude optional spreading fees and depend on local stone type and delivery logistics.

One acre is 43,560 sq ft. At a 2" depth you would need about 269 cubic yards or roughly 350 tons of gravel; at 4" depth you would double those amounts. Local stone density and compaction affect final tonnage, so use these as planning estimates and confirm with your supplier.

Hello Gravel offers standard delivery in 2+ business days and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, subject to supplier availability.

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.
