Gravel delivery in Medina, TN

You will commonly see crushed stone (often called #57 or 3/4u0022), crusher run (aka 3/4u0022 minus or road base), pea gravel, river rock, and screenings (stone dust). Local suppliers in West Tennessee often source limestone or sandstone, so color and texture can vary by quarry. Ask your supplier or Hello Gravel for exact size names and a gradation sheet if you need a specific look or compaction property.

Typical bulk price ranges in West Tennessee are about $12 to $35 per ton for common crushed stone and crusher run, and roughly $30 to $60 per ton for pea gravel or decorative stone; specialty stone can cost more. Delivery fees vary with distance and load size; many local deliveries are free or $50 to $150 depending on haul distance, and Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum. Final price depends on material type, local quarry supply, and delivery logistics, so check your quote at checkout.

Medina's humid climate with frequent rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles plus local clay soils can cause rutting, compaction, and washouts if drainage and base are inadequate. Proper slope, edge containment, and a compacted aggregate base reduce problems; adding geotextile fabric helps separate clay from the stone and improve stability. Expect to regrade and add material periodically after heavy rains or winters.

A good rule: 1 cubic yard covers about 108 sq ft at 3u0022 depth and about 81 sq ft at 4u0022 depth. For weight, 1 cubic yard of typical crushed stone is roughly 1.3 tons (range 1.2 to 1.5 tons depending on rock type). Example: a 1,000 sq ft driveway at 3u0022 needs about 9.3 yd3, or roughly 12 tons. Use our material calculator or contact Hello Gravel with your dimensions for a precise quote.

For driveways: a compacted 4u0022 to 6u0022 base of crusher run or 1u0022 minus with a 2u0022 to 3u0022 wearing course of 3/4u0022 crushed stone (#57) is common. For patios and walkways: pea gravel or crushed stone over 4u0022 of compacted base and a layer of screenings for paver projects works well. Local clay conditions mean a stabilized base (geotextile and good compaction) will extend performance in Medina.

Hello Gravel coordinates delivery from local suppliers to Medina and typically delivers by dump truck (tri-axle) with a minimum order of 3 tons. Some local contractors and suppliers offer installation, grading, and tailgate spreading; Hello Gravel can connect you with haulers, and you may request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading at their discretion and no spreading is guaranteed. For full installation, ask for contractor referrals or request an installation quote.

Regulations vary: some towns and HOAs restrict visible driveway materials, require curb cuts, or have stormwater and runoff rules that affect gravel use. Medina residents should check with Medina city hall, Hardin County zoning (if applicable), and any HOA covenants before ordering large loads. If in doubt, ask Hello Gravel or your local code office to confirm permitting and curb/driveway requirements.

Maintain drainage by keeping a slight crown and clearing ditches so water does not pond on the gravel; regrade ruts with a rake or box blade and add fresh stone where needed. Every 2 to 5 years plan to add a top dressing of 1 to 2 tons per 100 sq ft (depending on depth and traffic), and use edging to stop migration into lawns. For persistent problems on clay soils, consider adding a geotextile and a thicker base layer during the next full rebuild.
