Gravel in Buckhead, GA

Prices vary by gravel type and supplier, but in Buckhead you can typically expect delivered gravel to range from about $30 to $70 per ton. Heavier or specialty gravels (decorative, washed, or river rock) are at the higher end, while common crushed stone is at the lower end. Final price depends on availability, seasonal demand, and the supplier we connect you with.

Pea gravel is usually a bit more expensive than basic crushed stone; in Buckhead expect a typical delivered range of $40 to $80 per ton. Color, washing, and bagging add cost, and local supply can push prices up during high-demand times. Check your zip code in checkout for an exact quote from nearby suppliers.

A common tri-axle truck carries roughly 10 to 14 tons of gravel, so multiply the per-ton price by the truck capacity to estimate the load cost. Many Buckhead deliveries are free or included in the per-ton quote, but delivery fees can range from $0 to $150 depending on supplier distance and access. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and will show exact delivery costs at checkout.

Coverage depends on depth. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of typical crushed gravel equals about 0.7 cubic yards, which covers roughly 115 sq ft at 2 inches depth or about 77 sq ft at 3 inches depth. Use those figures to estimate quantities for pathways, patios, or thin driveway layers.

Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (length ft × width ft × depth in) ÷ 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.35 to 1.5 to convert to tons (we typically use 1.4 tons per cubic yard as an estimate). For example, a 100 ft × 10 ft driveway at 3 inches deep needs about 9.26 cubic yards × 1.4 ≈ 13 tons. Always round up and remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons.

Costs depend on width, depth, and material. As an example, a 100 ft × 10 ft driveway at 3 inches deep needs about 13 tons; at $40 per ton delivered that would be roughly $520 for material alone. Add any spreading fees, heavy equipment rental, or extra delivery charges for a more complete estimate; request a quote to get an exact Buckhead price.

Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see regular vehicle traffic, especially in Georgia’s variable weather and clay soils. For a long-lasting residential driveway, plan on at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted driving surface over a stabilized base; heavier use or poor subgrade may need 6 inches or more. If you’re unsure, our team can help size the depth based on your site and intended use.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. If your wheelbarrow holds about 3 to 4 cubic feet (typical homeowner sizes), expect roughly 7 to 9 wheelbarrow loads per cubic yard. If you need tons instead, one cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.35 to 1.5 tons depending on material density.

Delivered prices usually include the trucking cost and are often the most convenient option; in Buckhead delivered gravel typically falls in the $30 to $80 per ton range depending on material. If you pick up from a supplier you may pay a lower per-ton price but you’re responsible for loading, hauling, and truck rental.

Hello Gravel coordinates dump truck delivery with local haulers; many Buckhead deliveries are free or included in the material price, but fees vary by supplier and distance.

We recommend requesting spreading at checkout and noting access details so the driver can assess feasibility on arrival.
