Hello Gravel works with local haulers and many deliveries are free within our service area, but fees can apply for remote drop locations, tight access, or next-day requests. A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 14 tons (roughly 7 to 11 cubic yards); if a delivery fee is charged you can expect a modest charge that commonly ranges from about $25 to $150 depending on distance and complexity.

One cubic yard covers about 162 sq ft at 2u0022 depth, 108 sq ft at 3u0022, and 81 sq ft at 4u0022 depth. Using 1.4 tons per cubic yard (average for gravel), that means one ton covers roughly 125 sq ft at 2u0022, 77–83 sq ft at 3u0022 and about 58–62 sq ft at 4u0022. For a quick estimate, calculate cubic yards = (square feet x depth in feet) / 27 and then multiply cubic yards by ~1.4 to get tons, rounding up to allow for compaction and waste.

Yes. In Lee County, prices and availability can rise during peak construction season (spring and summer) and after major storms that increase demand for repairs and drainage work. Heavy rains can also affect quarry output and trucking schedules, which may push prices up temporarily. For time-sensitive projects, order early and check current pricing before committing.

Hello Gravel sources materials from local quarries and suppliers in and around Lee County and nearby counties, so many orders can be fulfilled quickly. Availability depends on the exact material and your delivery address; use our zip-code check or contact sales to see which local suppliers are available and how quickly they can deliver to your site. If a specific stone or color is required, lead time may be longer due to regional variation.

Our platform’s minimum order is 3 tons, which fits most small homeowner projects. Suppliers often offer volume discounts for larger orders; common discount thresholds start around 10 tons and become more significant at 20 to 50 tons, but exact discounts vary by material and supplier. Contact Hello Gravel sales for a bulk quote if you have a large project.

Standard delivery is 2+ business days from order confirmation; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can select a preferred delivery date in checkout and will receive a delivery confirmation with an estimated window, but exact timing isn’t guaranteed. Additional charges may apply for restricted access, permits, long drives, or special offloading requests.

For driveways in Lee County’s clay-prone soils, crusher run (a mix of fines and crushed stone) makes a stable base and is usually the most economical option. For surface layers and better drainage, #57 crushed stone or crushed stone with a top layer of pea gravel provide improved runoff and a cleaner finish but cost more. For drainage trenches and planting beds, clean pea gravel or washed stone works best because it allows water to flow; pea gravel and decorative stone are typically more expensive than crusher run, reflecting both material and handling costs.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if you request it at checkout, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. For full installation (machine spreading, grading, and compaction) you’ll generally need a landscaper or contractor; labor and equipment costs vary but small driveway installs often run a few hundred dollars while larger jobs can be $500 to $2,000+ depending on scope. Ask our sales team for referrals to local installers and get multiple estimates for any installation work.

Measure the length and width of the area to get square feet, choose the desired compacted depth in inches, then calculate cubic yards as (square feet x depth in feet) / 27. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to convert to tons, then round up to allow for compaction and waste.
