Coverage depends on depth. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of gravel covers about 230 sq ft at 1 inch depth or about 115 sq ft at 2 inches depth. For driveways and thicker layers, calculate higher quantities and round up to allow for compaction and settling.

No, 2 inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see vehicle traffic. For a stable driveway you should plan on a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone or a layered system with a compacted subbase; 2 inches can work as a decorative top dressing over a solid base. Local soils and drainage in the South Carthage area also affect how deep the base should be.

Measure the length and width of the area and decide on the desired depth in inches. Convert to cubic yards (length x width x depth(in)/36), then multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to 1.5 to convert to tons (1 cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.4 tons). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or round up and account for waste, then remember our 3-ton minimum.

Yes, Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers to deliver to South Carthage—check availability with your zip code. Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply). Deliveries come by dump truck (often tri-axle), and drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout.

Common local choices include 3/4" crushed stone or #57 for driveways and drainage, pea gravel for patios and pathways, bank run for inexpensive fill, and washed stone for decorative beds. Crushed stone provides a stable, compacted surface for driveways, while pea gravel gives a softer, decorative finish for seating areas. Because materials are regionally sourced, color and texture will reflect local geology.

Buying in bulk (meeting or exceeding the 3-ton minimum) from a local supplier reduces per-ton cost and hauler time. Choose common, no-frills materials like bank run or crusher run, schedule standard delivery to avoid rush fees, and compare quotes on Hello Gravel to find the most cost-effective option for your area.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading, but that is done at their discretion based on safety and site conditions. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but there are no guarantees; for precise grading or larger projects, hire a local contractor or equipment rental for spreading and compaction.

Because Hello Gravel sources from local suppliers, the color, texture, and particle mix will reflect regional geology and may vary from photos. Suppliers use common grading and material types, but natural variation is normal; include color or size preferences in your order notes and contact customer service if the delivered material differs significantly from what you expected.

Yes. Wet weather makes deliveries and spreading harder and can cause ruts or uneven distribution, while frozen or muddy ground can delay safe dumping. Spring and summer storms in Tennessee can affect scheduling, so plan deliveries for dry conditions when possible and allow extra lead time during busy seasons.

Contact Hello Gravel customer service as soon as possible and provide photos and a description of the problem (wrong material, short load, or delivery damage). We will work with the local supplier and hauler to resolve the issue and guide you on next steps; see our site for the complete refund and issue process.

Most tri-axle dump trucks used in the region carry about 10 to 12 tons of gravel per load, though smaller or larger trucks may be used depending on site access and supplier. Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons, so smaller projects will often be delivered as a partial load from a larger truck.

Yes, you can request size and color preferences, but availability depends on local supplier stock and regional geology. Add your request in the Order Notes at checkout and our team will pass it to the supplier; we cannot guarantee an exact match to images due to natural variation.
