Cost depends on the truck size, the number of tons you need, and the per-ton price in your area. Most residential deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks (delivering by the truckload), so get a Hello Gravel quote that packages material cost and delivery for a clear price estimate.

Yes, you can lay gravel directly on soil for paths or temporary driveways, but preparing the base improves performance. In Early County where soils can be sandy or hold moisture in low areas, we recommend grading, compacting, and using landscape fabric or a crushed-stone base for better drainage and to reduce shifting.

It depends on the pickup. A true 1-ton pickup is rated to carry one ton, while most half-ton or three-quarter-ton trucks have lower payloads; always check your truck's payload rating before loading. If you need more than your truck can carry, Hello Gravel delivers by dump truck with a 3-ton minimum order.

Material needs depend on width and depth. For example, a 200 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth needs roughly 18-20 cubic yards (about 27-30 tons), and at 4 inches depth needs about 24-25 cubic yards (about 33-36 tons). Multiply the tons needed by local per-ton pricing and add delivery; request a Hello Gravel quote for a precise cost and keep in mind the 3-ton minimum order.

Coverage varies by depth: one ton of typical crushed gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards. That covers roughly 230 sq ft at 1 inch depth, about 115 sq ft at 2 inches, and about 77 sq ft at 3 inches. Use these numbers to estimate how many tons you need for your Early County project.

Hello Gravel offers standard delivery in 2+ business days and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee; availability depends on your zip code. Deliveries come by dump truck (typically tri-axle), with optional tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion; check your quote for fees and schedule details.

For driveways, angular crushed stone (for example 3/4u0022 crushed stone) is a common choice because it compacts well and resists migration. Pea gravel is comfortable to walk on but can move more easily in rainy conditions common in southwest Georgia, so consider a compacted crushed base and proper drainage for longer-lasting results.
