Dump truck sizes vary, but most tri-axle dump trucks used in Bolton carry roughly 10 to 20 tons of gravel depending on the truck and material density. A full truckload can be more economical per ton than small orders, but total cost depends on material type and distance; Hello Gravel provides per-truck and per-ton quotes during checkout. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is handled by local contracted haulers.

Tonnage depends on driveway width and depth. For a 200 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway a common recommendation is 6 to 8 inches total (4-6u0022 base + 2u0022 top), which works out to about 62 to 84 tons. Using local delivered price ranges ($20-$60/ton) you could expect delivered material costs roughly between $1,240 and $5,040; get a precise quote on Hello Gravel for your exact width, depth, and material choice.

A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft. At 4u0022 depth you'll need about 7 tons, and at 6u0022 depth about 10 tons. With typical delivered prices in the Georgia region ($20-$60/ton), material-only delivery estimates fall roughly between $140 and $600; request a zip-code-specific quote on our site for an exact cost.

Small projects often make sense ordering by the ton to match your exact need and avoid excess material. For larger jobs (roughly 10+ tons) a full truckload can lower the per-ton price and reduce multiple delivery fees. Compare Hello Gravel per-ton and truckload quotes for your address to see which is more cost-effective.

For driveways in Bolton, professionals commonly use a compacted crushed stone base (crush-and-run or #3) topped with #57 or #411 stone for surface stability. Walkways and low-maintenance beds often use pea gravel or 3/8u0022 decorative gravel for comfort and appearance, while angular stones are better for vehicle areas because they lock together. Local suppliers reflect Georgia geology, so colors and texture may vary by area.

Order a compactable base rock (crusher run), a top course (like #57), landscape fabric or geotextile to limit migration, and edging to keep gravel contained. You may also want to rent or hire compaction equipment and buy stakes and string for layout. Because Bolton has pockets of clay, adding extra base and ensuring proper grading helps with drainage and long-term performance.

Hello Gravel drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but this is not guaranteed and pricing varies by supplier. Third-party spreading, grading, and compaction services are commonly charged separately; expect small spreading jobs to range from about $50 to $200 and full grading/compaction by a contractor to be several hundred dollars depending on scope. Ask for local contractor estimates and note any service request in your order notes.

A compacted crushed-stone base of 4 to 6 inches topped with 2 to 3 inches of angular surface stone is effective at suppressing weeds and resisting rutting in Georgia's rainy climate. Adding a geotextile fabric and solid edging helps keep soil out of the gravel and reduces weed intrusion. Regular maintenance like occasional raking and topping thin spots prevents long-term problems.

Pros typically install a 4-6u0022 crushed stone base (crusher run or road base) and finish with a 2-3u0022 top layer of #57, #411, or crush-and-run depending on desired finish. Hello Gravel works with local suppliers who commonly stock these materials and can deliver them to Bolton; check product availability by entering your zip code on our site and add material preferences in Order Notes.
