Gravel in Hampton Station, TN

Typical delivered prices per ton in West Tennessee vary by material and distance but generally fall in these ranges: crushed limestone or crushed stone $25–$45/ton, #57 stone $30–$50/ton, pea gravel $35–$60/ton, and crusher-run or base material $20–$40/ton. Prices depend on local quarry rates, truck haul distance, and seasonal demand. Use these as ballpark figures and check Hello Gravel checkout for exact, upfront delivered pricing to Hampton Station.

For Hampton Station’s humid subtropical climate and common clay subsoils, a well-graded crushed stone base (crusher-run or 3/4" minus) with a top layer of #57 or washed crushed stone works best. The crushed base locks together for strength and drainage while #57 on top sheds water and resists rutting. Avoid loose, round gravels alone (like only pea gravel) unless a strong base and edging are provided.

Estimate using a rule of thumb of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard and add 10–15% for compaction and waste. For a 20x20 driveway: 3" depth ≈ 5.2 tons, 4" ≈ 6.9 tons, 6" ≈ 10.4 tons. For a 24x24 driveway: 3" ≈ 7.5 tons, 4" ≈ 10.0 tons, 6" ≈ 14.9 tons. Order at least Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum and round up to the next whole ton to be safe.

Rules vary by neighborhood and county; some HOAs in the region restrict loose-surface driveways or require specific edging and maintenance standards. There is no statewide ban on gravel drives, but you should check your local county planning or zoning office and any HOA covenants before ordering. If you are unsure, contact Hello Gravel or your local planning office to confirm requirements for Hampton Station.

Hello Gravel’s standard minimum order is 3 tons. Many orders in or near Hampton Station qualify for free delivery, but delivery fees commonly range from $0 to $75 depending on distance, access, and job complexity; remote or difficult-access jobs can cost more. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and drivers may charge additional fees for tight access, long walk-offs, or permit needs.

Gravel is the lowest upfront cost and provides excellent permeability, which helps with drainage in West Tennessee’s heavy rains; however it requires regular maintenance like grading and periodic topping. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but usually need less frequent topping; they can suffer cracking or heaving on expansive clay soils if the base is not properly prepared. If drainage and low initial cost matter, gravel is a good choice; for low-maintenance long-term stability consider paved options with proper subgrade work.

Expect minor maintenance (raking, grading, filling washouts) after heavy storms and routine attention every 6–12 months. A light top-up of 1–2 tons is common every 1–3 years for average residential traffic; heavier use or poor drainage can require topping every year or two. Regular maintenance and good base preparation will lengthen the time between replenishments.

Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and haulers during checkout, and our sales team can recommend installers in the West Tennessee area. For full installation and compaction services, search local landscapers, site-prep contractors, and paving companies in your county and ask for references and compacted base examples. You can also call Hello Gravel at 855-241-8884 for local contractor referrals and guidance for Hampton Station.

Prepare the subgrade by removing organic material and soft spots, and install a permeable geotextile fabric to separate the clay from the stone. Place and compact a 4–6" (light vehicle) to 6–8" (frequent heavy vehicles) layer of crushed stone crusher-run as the structural base, then add a 2–3" topcoat of #57 or similar for the surface. Include a crown (1/4" to 1/2" per foot) and edges or restraints to prevent lateral spread.

Common failures are rutting, washouts, potholes, edge breakup, and vegetation growth, often caused by poor drainage, weak base, or steep slopes. Prevent these by building a compacted crushed-stone base, installing proper drainage (ditches, swales, or French drains), using geotextile where needed, maintaining a crown, and adding edging to hold material in place. Regular grading and periodic top-up material after major storms will keep the surface functioning longer.
