For driveways, crushed stone or crush-and-run is commonly best because it locks together and compacts well; for patios and walkways, pea gravel or decorative washed stone is popular for appearance and comfort underfoot. For drainage, larger washed stone (1/2u0022 to 1 1/2u0022) or #57 stone is preferred because it allows water to flow. Price-wise, screenings and local crushed mixes are usually the most economical, crushed stone and washed stone are mid-range, and decorative or colored pea gravel tends to be pricier.

Pea gravel is great for patios, play areas, and decorative landscaping because it is comfortable to walk on and has a clean look. Avoid pea gravel on steep driveways, heavy-traffic driveways, or areas where the stone needs to interlock, because it shifts and can scatter under vehicle use. In wetter parts of Worth County, consider a well-compacted base or edge restraint if you use pea gravel to reduce migration.

For a standard residential driveway in Worth County, plan on a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone; increase to 6 to 8 inches if heavy trucks will use the driveway. Material plus delivery typically runs from a few hundred dollars for a short single-car drive to $1,000 or more for larger or deeper installs, depending on gravel type and exact quantities. Use our calculator or request a local quote for a precise cost for your driveway dimensions and material choice.

Some local suppliers and independent contractors offer spreading and compaction as an add-on service, but drivers employed by hauling companies operate at their discretion and tailgate spreading is not guaranteed. When available, spreading and compaction fees typically range from about $50 to several hundred dollars depending on site access and job size; full installation by a contractor will cost more. Request spreading or compaction during checkout and note that our drivers will evaluate safety and feasibility on arrival.

Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons for most materials, and bulk discounts often apply for larger orders (quotes improve per-ton on truckload or multi-truck orders). Standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Lead times can vary by material and season, so check availability for your specific zip code at checkout or contact our team for scheduling needs.

Permit and HOA requirements vary by municipality and any applicable homeowners association; Worth County or local city offices can confirm whether a permit or setback rules apply. Suppliers can provide delivery tickets, material specifications, and sometimes product data sheets to support permit applications, but they generally do not obtain permits for you. We recommend contacting your local building department and HOA before ordering to confirm requirements and avoid delays.

A good rule of thumb is that one cubic yard of loose gravel weighs about 1.3 to 1.5 tons; use 1.4 tons per cubic yard for quick estimates. To convert, multiply cubic yards by 1.4 to get approximate tons, or divide tons by 1.4 to get cubic yards. For precise ordering in Worth County, use our calculator or ask our sales team because local rock density and moisture can change the conversion slightly.
