Gravel in St. Simons Island, GA

Prices depend on gravel type, supplier, and delivery location. For common driveway gravels in the St. Simons Island area you can expect delivered prices roughly in the $40 to $80 per ton range as a ballpark; exact pricing is provided in your online quote.

Suppliers may price crush-and-run by the ton or by the cubic yard; a typical conversion is about 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.2 to 1.4 tons depending on moisture and rock type. A standard tri-axle dump truck serving St. Simons Island usually carries roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards (about 12 to 18 tons), but truck size depends on the local hauler.

Yes, we deliver to residential addresses on St. Simons Island, but access logistics matter. Drivers typically use tri-axle dump trucks that require clear, level access and enough turning room; some narrow streets, low-clearance drives, or gated communities may prevent large trucks from getting close to the drop point. There are no ferry restrictions for St. Simons (the island is served by causeways), but you should flag any HOA rules, private road weight limits, or bridge restrictions when ordering so we can coordinate the appropriate truck and route.

Our standard minimum order is 3 tons. Bulk discounts may be available for larger projects and vary by supplier and material; contact our sales team or request a commercial quote for volume pricing tailored to your address on St. Simons Island. We recommend asking about staging and offloading costs for very large deliveries so you have an accurate all-in price.

We do not provide full installation or compaction as a standard service; drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but that is not guaranteed. For full spreading, grading, and compaction you should hire a local contractor on St. Simons Island; we can help connect you with local contractors or provide a materials-only quote so you can budget installation separately. Costs for professional installation vary by scope, site access, and equipment required.

For a stable driveway in the island’s sandy, coastal soils, use a layered approach: a compacted base of crush-and-run (crusher run) or 3/4u0022 crushed stone, topped with a 3/8u0022 to 3/4u0022 washed stone or #57 stone for drainage and traction. Angular crushed stone locks together better than rounded river rock, which helps in sandy soils and high-traffic areas. Because materials are regionally sourced, ask for local product recommendations in your quote to match soil and aesthetic needs on St. Simons Island.

Permit and HOA rules vary by neighborhood on St. Simons Island, and some HOAs set material, color, or surfacing standards for driveways. The Glynn County building department handles permits for driveways and site work—check with them and your HOA before ordering. Delivery itself normally does not require a permit, but oversized trucks or work in right-of-way areas may require coordination or permits, so share permit or HOA requirements when you place your order.

Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an added fee. You can choose a preferred delivery date in our checkout calendar, but we cannot guarantee an exact arrival window — drivers will contact you with delivery details when the hauler is assigned. Local factors such as supplier inventory, weather, and high season on St. Simons Island can affect timing, so book early for weekend or project-start deadlines.

We accept major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), PayPal, and Apple Pay through our secure checkout. Contractor or account billing may be available for qualified businesses—contact our sales team to discuss invoicing and payment terms for larger or ongoing projects on St. Simons Island. All payment arrangements are confirmed before a delivery is scheduled.

Because gravel is a bulk material, returns after delivery are not generally accepted; contact customer service as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order before dispatch. If pickup of excess material is required, it may be possible but often carries a pickup or hauling fee that depends on location and truck availability. We recommend calculating needs with our material calculator or requesting a site consult to minimize excess.

We provide free digital quotes and an online materials calculator to estimate how much gravel you need and the delivered cost to St. Simons Island. On-site estimates for installation are not a standard service nationwide, though local suppliers or contractor partners in the St. Simons area may offer on-site visits—contact our team and we can connect you with local providers for installation quotes. Always share photos or measurements in your request to speed up the quoting process.

Because materials vary by region, we can often share photos of local installations and finished driveways from suppliers serving St. Simons Island to help you choose. Small physical samples may be available from some suppliers—request samples in your order notes or contact our team to check availability. Keep in mind that natural color and texture can vary, so photos and samples are guides rather than exact matches.
