Gravel in Rex, GA

A tri-axle dump truck load in the Rex area usually holds about 15 to 20 tons, and per-ton pricing will be in the $20 to $45 range described above. Many suppliers also charge a flat truck delivery fee that commonly falls between $300 and $700 depending on distance and site difficulty, so large loads often lower the effective per-ton delivery cost. Ask Hello Gravel for a truck-rate quote so you can compare an itemized per-ton vs flat-truck price.

For driveways in West Georgia, crushed stone (commonly 3/4u0022 or #57) or crushed granite with angular edges is most durable because it locks together and compacts well.

In Rex, crushed driveway stone typically falls in the $20–$45 per ton range while decorative or washed gravels can be $30–$60 per ton, depending on local availability.

Many local suppliers and contracted haulers will deliver to residential addresses in Rex and may offer tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion if safe and feasible. Full spreading and compaction are sometimes offered by the supplier or a third-party installer; fees vary but small driveway labor often ranges from $150 to $600 depending on scope, while machine rental (plate compactor or small roller) is commonly $100 to $300 per day. Always request spreading/compaction options at checkout and confirm whether the driver or a separate crew will perform the work.

Permitting rules depend on your lot and whether you alter a public right-of-way; in Rex (Clayton County area), driveway permits may be required for curb cuts, changes to drainage, or work in the county right-of-way, and county Public Works or permitting offices enforce those rules. If you live in a neighborhood with an HOA, the HOA may require approval or restrict material type and appearance, and enforcement is handled by the HOA. Before ordering, check with Clayton County permitting and your HOA to avoid rework.

A 20 ft x 100 ft driveway at 4 inches deep is about 24.7 cubic yards, which converts to roughly 33 tons of gravel (using ~1.35 tons per cubic yard).

A good quote should list the material type and gradation (for example, 3/4u0022 crushed stone), quantity in tons (and cubic yards if available), per-ton price, delivery fee or truck rate, truck size, optional spreading/compaction labor and costs, any site-access or dump location notes, taxes, and a delivery window. Having those line items makes it easy to compare bids and to spot hidden fees or differing material specs. Ask suppliers to include photos or samples if you need a color/texture reference for your Rex property.

Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; many local suppliers in West Georgia offer lower per-ton pricing or waived delivery fees once you reach a truckload threshold (commonly 10 to 15+ tons, or a full tri-axle load of 15–20 tons). Larger, palletized or landscape-yard purchases may also qualify for volume discounts, but exact thresholds and savings vary by supplier and distance. When comparing offers, ask for both per-ton and truck-rate pricing so you can see the true bulk discount.
