Common local types include crushed stone (#57 or #411) for driveways and base, pea gravel and river rock for decorative beds, and larger crushed stone for drainage. Due to regional sourcing in West Georgia, color and texture can vary, so pick by intended use (compaction and drainage vs. decoration) and note preferences in your order.

Yes, you can add color or appearance preferences in the Order Notes, and Hello Gravel will pass them to the local supplier. Keep in mind that regional sourcing means exact color and texture can vary, so requests are a preference rather than a guaranteed match.

For a residential driveway in Dexter, plan for a compacted base of 3–6 inches of larger crushed stone and a 2–4 inch top course of crushed stone (#57 or similar) for good load-bearing and drainage. Because West Georgia has clay subsoils and heavy rain at times, proper grading and drainage are important to prevent rutting and pooling.

Dexter's West Georgia soils often have clay that holds water, so gravel can sink or rut without good base preparation and drainage. Choose angular crushed stone for better compaction, slope your surface for runoff, and consider geotextile fabric under heavier areas to improve stability.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this service at checkout. This service is not guaranteed—drivers will assess safety and accessibility on arrival—so plan for possible hand-raking or a separate spreading crew if you require precise placement.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order confirmation, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Availability can vary by zip code and supplier, so check your zip and schedule your preferred delivery date during checkout.

Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible; changes are easiest before the order has been processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but ability to change or cancel depends on supplier and truck scheduling, so prompt contact improves the chance of success.
