Minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery timing is 2+ business days with many areas eligible for free delivery; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are made by tri-axle dump trucks, so drivers need adequate turning room, clearance from overhead wires, and a safe, level place to dump; if access is tight, add photos in Order Notes or contact our team to confirm feasibility.

Local suppliers commonly offer pea gravel, #57 crushed stone, #3 crushed stone (often used for driveways), and recycled road-base. Typical delivered price ranges in the Hickory Ridge area are roughly: pea gravel $40-$75/ton, #57 and #3 crushed stone $30-$55/ton, and recycled road-base $20-$35/ton. Regional variations apply, so check your zip code for exact product availability and pricing.

Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324, and convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by ~1.4. Example: a 2-car driveway (~400 sq ft) at 3 inches needs about 3.7 cubic yards, or roughly 5.2 tons; a 1,000 sq ft area at 3 inches needs about 9.3 cubic yards, or roughly 13 tons.

Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if conditions allow; request it at checkout but note there are no guarantees. Professional spreading and grading are usually performed by local contractors rather than the delivery driver; if a hauler or supplier does offer spreading, local fees commonly range from modest per-load charges to $50-$200 depending on the service, while contractor installation for a driveway can run several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on area and scope.

Many local suppliers and haulers offer volume discounts for large orders and occasional seasonal promotions, but offers vary by supplier and time of year. Hello Gravel accepts major credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay for payment; for financing options or payment plans, ask our sales team and we can check local supplier programs or third-party financing availability for your order.

Hickory and Catawba County can have local rules about street access, permit requirements for blocking a road, or HOA restrictions—and some residential streets limit heavy truck traffic or parking. If your delivery requires backing on to a lawn, blocking a street, or use of public right-of-way, check with your city/HOA and add Order Notes or call our team so we can coordinate permits or route changes. We also recommend confirming driveway width, overhead clearance, and any weight limits before scheduling.

Standard lead time is 2+ business days, and same-week delivery is commonly available. Next-day delivery may be offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, but availability depends on local supplier schedules and demand. During peak landscaping season or bad weather, lead times can be longer, so schedule early when possible.

Recycled road-base is generally less expensive and compacts well, making it a good choice for base layers under driveways and paths; typical delivered savings versus new crushed stone can be noticeable. New crushed stone (like #57 or #3) offers cleaner, more consistent angular rock that drains well and provides a better finished surface, but it usually costs more. Choose recycled base for structural bedding and new crushed stone for top surfaces and better aesthetics.
