For typical driveways (2-3u0022 compacted top course, plus a thicker base), plan accordingly and add a little extra for compaction and grading.

Yes. Demorest sits near the foothills of northeast Georgia, which means sloped yards and local clay soils can affect drainage and erosion. Choose gravel that provides good drainage on slopes (clean crushed stone or #57) and consider geotextile fabric and edging in hilly areas to reduce washout.

A common approach is a compacted base of crushed stone with fines (for stability) topped with 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57 for drainage and tire traction. For steep driveways common near Demorest, use larger angular stone for the base and well-draining top stone to reduce rutting and erosion.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the desired depth in inches, then multiply length x width x depth (in feet) to get cubic feet; divide by 27 for cubic yards and multiply by 1.4 to 1.6 to convert to tons. For example, a 10'x50' area at 3u0022 depth is about 4.63 cubic yards, roughly 6.5 to 7.5 tons; use our material calculator for a quick estimate.
