Gravel in Auburn, GA

Prices vary by type and supplier, but expect roughly $20 to $45 per ton for common bulk gravel in the Auburn area. Exact price depends on material (pea gravel, crushed stone, #57), delivery distance, and seasonal demand—check our checkout for live pricing in your zip code.

Pea gravel is usually toward the higher end of the local price range because of screening and handling, while standard crushed gravel or #57 stone tends to be cheaper. Expect pea gravel to be roughly $5 to $15 more per ton than basic crushed stone, depending on availability.

A typical tri-axle dump truck used in our network carries about 10 to 14 tons of gravel, depending on local truck size and load limits. Delivery cost to Auburn addresses varies by distance and order size; many local deliveries are free or included for minimum orders, but partial loads or long hauls may have a delivery fee displayed at checkout.

For 100 sq ft: at 2 inches you need about 0.9 tons, at 3 inches about 1.3 tons, and at 4 inches about 1.7 tons. Note Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons, so you may need to order the minimum even for small areas.

Generally no. In Auburn's clay-influenced soils and wet seasons, 2 inches of loose gravel is usually insufficient—install a compacted base (4-6 inches of crushed stone) and finish with 2 to 3 inches of surface gravel, or use 3 to 4 inches of compacted surface material for lighter-use driveways.

One ton of gravel will cover roughly 116 sq ft at 2 inches, 77 sq ft at 3 inches, and 58 sq ft at 4 inches. Expect some settling and compaction after delivery, so allow a small overage when ordering for Auburn's local soil and weather conditions.
