One cubic yard covers about 108 square feet at a 3-inch depth. That calculation is 27 cubic feet per cubic yard divided by 0.25 foot (3 inches), so 27 / 0.25 = 108 sq ft. Use this to estimate quantities for patios, paths, and driveways.

#8 gravel (small pea-sized crushed stone) works well for walkways and decorative areas because it is comfortable to walk on and drains well. For driveways in Jackson, SC, larger angular crushed stone like #57 or 3/4u0022-1u0022 crushed stone is usually better because it compacts and locks together under traffic. If you want a smooth aesthetic for walkways or garden beds, order #8; for vehicle traffic choose a coarser base and a finer top dressing if needed.

For a durable driveway you should prepare a compacted base: typically 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone base (angular material) with geotextile fabric underneath to prevent mixing with the soil. On top of that, add 2 to 3 inches of finish gravel. Always calculate volume for both base and finish, then add about 10 to 20 percent extra for compaction and waste, and remember Hello Gravel's minimum order requirements may affect how much you buy.

Products marketed as 'stabilized' or 'polymer-modified' gravel (and resin-bound aggregate systems) use a resin or polymer to lock particles together and create a firm surface. These systems are sold through specialty suppliers and installers and are more expensive than loose gravel; installed cost commonly runs higher than loose gravel by a wide margin and can be $4 to $12 or more per square foot depending on product and installation. Availability in the Jackson area varies, so contact Hello Gravel or local suppliers for current local options and quotes.

Yes, a gravel perimeter can improve drainage and reduce the moist organic environment many pests prefer, which helps deter insects and rodents. Use clean, washed stone such as 3/8u0022 to 3/4u0022 crushed stone or pea gravel and keep a clear band 6 to 12 inches wide that slopes away from the foundation. Avoid mulch directly against the foundation and confirm local grading and drainage needs before installing.

Local haulers commonly deliver gravel by dump truck, and some drivers can do limited tailgate spreading at their discretion if you request it at checkout. Spreading or dedicated spreading crews are not guaranteed and can carry extra fees; typical tailgate spreading charges for a small residential driveway often run from $50 to $200 depending on size and complexity. If you need full spreading services, ask for that option when booking so we can confirm availability and an accurate fee.
