For West Tennessee conditions, crushed stone (like 3/4" crushed limestone) and crusher run (dense-graded aggregate) are the best choices because they compact well and resist erosion. Pea gravel looks nice but tends to move and rut under vehicle traffic, especially after heavy rains. Using a compacted crusher run base with a crushed stone or 3/4" top layer gives the best long-term performance.

A typical 2-car driveway (about 20 ft by 40 ft = 800 sq ft) needs roughly 10 tons for a 3" top layer, about 21 tons for a 6" compacted base, and about 31 tons total if you install a 6" base plus a 3" top coat. These are approximate — we recommend adding 5-10% extra for compaction and settling. Use your exact dimensions and desired depth when ordering, and check Hello Gravel's material calculator for a precise estimate.

Brunswick's humid, rainy climate increases the risk of erosion, rutting, and washouts on gravel driveways because heavy rainfall moves loose particles and undermines poorly drained bases. Proper slope, drainage channels, and a well-compacted base (crusher run) greatly reduce these issues. Plan for regular maintenance after storm seasons, such as regrading low spots and adding fresh gravel as needed.

Gravel has a lower upfront material and installation cost but requires periodic maintenance like regrading and topping every few years, so lifecycle costs can add up over time. Asphalt has a higher initial installation price but typically needs less frequent surface maintenance; however, major repairs or full replacement are more expensive. For many Brunswick homeowners, gravel is the more budget-friendly short-term choice, while asphalt can be more cost-effective over multiple decades depending on maintenance habits and traffic.

Yes. Hello Gravel connects customers to trusted local suppliers and haulers serving West Tennessee; availability of delivery and optional tailgate spreading depends on the supplier and driver. You can check your zip code on our site to see local options, request spreading at checkout, and note that drivers decide at delivery whether spreading is safe and feasible. If you need guaranteed spreading or installation, ask for a contractor or professional installation quote before ordering.

Permit requirements vary by county and any local HOA rules; in small towns like Brunswick (population 173) municipal rules may be minimal but nearby county regulations could apply. Always check with your county planning or public works office and review any HOA covenants before starting work. If you are unsure, Hello Gravel's sales team can help point you toward local resources.

Recycled crushed concrete (RCC) can be a cost-effective option that compacts well and provides a solid base, especially when budgets are tight. Downsides include more variable particle sizes, dust, and occasional fines or remnants of old materials, so it may not be as attractive as new crushed stone for a finished surface. If you choose RCC, use it as a compacted base layer and consider topping with a fresh crushed stone for appearance and drainage.

A well-installed gravel driveway with a compacted base and good drainage can go 10 to 20 years before needing major resurfacing, though the top surface will need periodic topping and regrading every 2 to 7 years depending on traffic and weather. Lifespan shortens if drainage is poor or heavy vehicles are frequent. Regular maintenance and timely repairs after storms extend service life and reduce long-term costs.

Labor-only charges for grading and spreading a residential driveway in the Brunswick area commonly range from a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand dollars depending on site prep, equipment needed, and driveway size. A full contractor installation including materials often runs from roughly $1,500 up to $5,000 or more based on scope, base depth, and accessibility. Get written quotes from local contractors and compare them with Hello Gravel material and delivery prices to decide whether DIY or professional installation is best for your project.
