For a single truck delivery in the Ellenwood area, some customers pay no delivery fee while others see delivery charges commonly in the $75 to $250 range; longer hauls or next-day requests may be higher.

Residential deliveries in Georgia commonly use tri-axle dump trucks that typically haul about 10 to 14 cubic yards, which is roughly 14 to 20 tons of gravel depending on material density. Smaller single-axle trucks carry less, and some larger end-dump rigs can carry more, so check your order confirmation for the truck type.

Using a typical density (about 1.4 tons per cubic yard), 1 ton of gravel covers approximately 110 square feet at 2u0022 depth, about 75 square feet at 3u0022 depth, and roughly 57 square feet at 4u0022 depth. These are approximate numbers; final coverage varies with material compaction and particle size.

No, 2 inches of gravel is not sufficient for most Ellenwood driveways. Because local soils tend toward clay and heavy rains can affect stability, we recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone or crusher run, plus 2 to 3 inches of surface gravel; heavier traffic may need a deeper base.

For a typical single-car driveway about 12 feet wide and a combined base and surface depth of about 6 inches (4u0022 base + 2u0022 surface), expect around 30 to 35 tons of gravel for a 100-foot driveway. If you use only a 2u0022 surface, the amount drops to about 12 to 15 tons, but that depth is not recommended for long-term durability.

Some local drivers may provide tailgate spreading at their discretion if it can be done safely, and you should request it at checkout, but Hello Gravel cannot guarantee spreading services. For professional spreading and compaction, local landscapers or crews typically charge hourly or a flat rate; common ranges are $50 to $150 per hour for labor or $150 to $600+ as a job-based fee depending on driveway length and complexity.

Yes, many suppliers based in the Atlanta metro deliver to Ellenwood, which is about 18 to 22 miles southeast of downtown Atlanta. Suppliers farther from Ellenwood may add distance-based fees or require a larger minimum, so delivery costs can increase with distance and traffic considerations.

Local suppliers in West Georgia commonly offer crusher run (crushed stone with fines), 3/4u0022 crushed stone or u0022#57u0022, pea gravel, and river rock. For driveways, crusher run or 3/4u0022 crushed stone with a compacted base is the most durable choice; pea gravel is better used as a decorative top layer or for walkways where drainage and appearance are priorities.
