Most contracted trucks used in our service are tri-axle dump trucks that deliver about 10–14 tons of gravel, depending on material density and local weight limits. Smaller dump trucks carry less and off-road or specialty trucks may differ. Hello Gravel will confirm the truck size and estimated tonnage when you schedule delivery.

One ton of common gravel will cover roughly 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth, and about 60 square feet at 4 inches, though exact coverage depends on the stone size and compaction. Use these as practical estimates when planning driveways or beds. For precise needs, use our material calculator or contact our team with project dimensions.

Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway base in West Georgia, where clay soils and seasonal wetness can cause settlement. For a stable residential driveway, plan on 4–6 inches of compacted crushed stone as a base, plus a 1–2 inch top layer if desired; heavier vehicle traffic may need 8–12 inches. If you want a decorative surface only, 2 inches can work for walkways or temporary coverage, but it won’t provide long-term structural support.

Costs vary with material type and truck size, so averages fluctuate. For planning purposes in the Perkins area, expect delivered tri-axle loads to range widely depending on stone and distance; the most reliable way to get a current average is to request a quote through Hello Gravel. We can estimate total cost quickly once you select material and delivery details.

Buying in bulk (minimum 3 tons through Hello Gravel) from local suppliers is usually cheaper per ton than buying bagged gravel at retail stores. Other cost-saving tips: choose standard road base or crushed stone instead of decorative stone, pick up material yourself if possible, or combine orders with neighbors to fill a truck. Ask our team about local materials—regional sourcing can lower delivery and material costs.

As a quick guide: a 10 ft by 20 ft area at 2 inches needs about 1.5–2 tons; the same area at 4 inches needs about 3–4 tons.
