Gravel: Drainage For Mcewen's Climate • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Mcewen
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.
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 Mcewen Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mcewen (city population 17,445) sits within a growing West Tennessee region and is part of a larger metro area of 2.6+ million. With a steady growth rate of 1.80% annually and a temperate climate (hardiness zone 8b), homeowners here face steady construction and landscaping demand for driveways, drainage fixes, and garden projects. The area averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain annually, conditions that create both dry spells and runoff events—so projects need materials that manage water well and stand up to seasonal cycles. Local soils and geology mean residents often prefer durable, angular gravel that compacts into a stable base, resists washout, and blends with nearby landscapes. From small DIY patios to contractor-scale driveway rebuilds, Mcewen homeowners want locally sourced aggregates that perform in local conditions and simplify maintenance over time.Popular Projects in Mcewen This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mcewen gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mcewen.
In Mcewen and West Tennessee, delivered gravel usually runs about $30 to $55 per ton depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, or base rock) and seasonal demand. A small truckload (minimum 3 tons via Hello Gravel) will start at the low end of that range, while larger truckloads and specialty colors run higher. For an exact price for your address, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or call our team.
A common tri-axle dump truck in our network carries about 10 to 16 cubic yards, roughly 15 to 24 tons depending on the material density. At 2 inches depth that truck will cover about 1,600 to 3,100 square feet; at 4 inches it covers about half of that. Tell us your project size and preferred depth and we will estimate truck count and delivery options.
The least expensive approach is to buy in bulk and use local materials—recycled crushed concrete or locally sourced crushed stone are often cheaper than specialty decorative gravels. Ordering delivery through Hello Gravel reduces logistics costs compared to multiple pick-ups. Also compare depths: lower depth saves material but may not meet structural needs, so balance cost and performance.
Coverage varies by material density, but as a rule of thumb in Mcewen one ton of typical crushed gravel covers about 90 to 115 square feet at 2 inches of depth, and about 45 to 58 square feet at 4 inches. Differences come from whether the gravel is dense crushed stone or lighter, rounded pea gravel. Use our material calculator for a location-specific estimate.
Two inches of loose gravel is usually not enough for a driveway that gets regular traffic. In Mcewen we recommend 3 to 4 inches of compacted base gravel for passenger vehicles, plus a 1 to 2 inch topcoat if you want a finer finish. Soil conditions, drainage, and vehicle weight can increase the needed depth.
Costs depend on width, depth, material, and delivery. For a typical 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at about 3 inches compacted depth, expect roughly 2.5 to 4 tons of gravel, which material-wise could be $80 to $220 plus delivery and any spreading fees. Use our checkout or call Hello Gravel for an itemized quote based on your exact address and material choice.
It depends on the width and depth you want. For a 100 ft by 10 ft driveway: at 2 inches you need about 9 to 11 tons; at 4 inches you need about 18 to 22 tons. We recommend a compacted base of 3 to 4 inches plus a 1 to 2 inch topcoat for long-term performance in Mcewen.
Pea gravel is attractive and drains well but does not compact tightly, so it shifts and migrates underfoot and under tires. That makes it a poor choice for driveways or high-traffic areas unless contained by edging or a stabilizer. It can also be tracked into the house and may require more frequent top-ups in rainy seasons.
Gravel is significantly cheaper to install upfront than concrete in Mcewen, but concrete is lower maintenance and lasts longer for driveways and high-traffic surfaces. Gravel can require periodic replenishing and grading, so consider lifetime cost and intended use when choosing between the two. Contact our team if you want cost comparisons for your exact dimensions.
Materials that behave more like a hard surface include crusher run (a mix of stone and fines) compacted well, gravel mixed with a stabilizing binder, or resin-bound gravels. These options increase stability and reduce tracking compared with loose pea gravel, but they cost more than loose stone and may require a suitable base. Ask our sales team about local supplier options and pricing in Mcewen.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. A common wheelbarrow holds about 3 cubic feet, so you can expect roughly nine wheelbarrow loads per cubic yard. If your wheelbarrow is smaller or larger, adjust that number accordingly.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and uses local contracted dump trucks for delivery in West Tennessee. Standard delivery takes 2 or more business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Add any spreading requests in checkout notes, and our driver will assess tailgate spreading at arrival, but it is not guaranteed.
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.
