Gravel in Crump, TN

In West Tennessee around Crump, delivered prices commonly fall in ranges: crusher run or 3/4u0022 minus about $20 to $40 per ton, #57 or 3/4u0022 crushed stone about $30 to $50 per ton, and pea gravel about $35 to $60 per ton.

Crump is served by regional West Tennessee quarries and local aggregate producers rather than large metro suppliers; Hello Gravel connects you to trusted local haulers in the area. Typical minimum orders are 3 tons (Hello Gravel minimum) and small-load or short-haul fees may apply; full-truckloads often have lower per-ton prices but may have a truck minimum or trip fee for very short hauls. Contact us with your zip code to see which suppliers deliver to your address and any specific minimums or truck fees.

On sticky West Tennessee clay, angular crushed stone (for example #57 or crushed limestone) and crusher run (a mix of stone and fines) perform best because they lock together and resist shifting. Pea gravel or rounded river rock tends to sink and migrate on clay and is best for decorative areas rather than driveways. For poor drainage areas use a compacted stone base, geotextile fabric, and proper slope or drainage swales to keep water away from the gravel surface.

Typical estimates: a 1-car driveway (about 12 ft x 20 ft) at 3u0022 depth needs roughly 3 to 5 tons of gravel, while a 2-car driveway (about 24 ft x 20 ft) at 3u0022 depth needs about 6 to 10 tons. Increasing depth to 4u0022 or adding a compacted base will raise the tonnage roughly 25% to 33%. These are estimates for planning; use our material calculator or provide exact dimensions for a precise quote.

Independent contractor rates in rural West Tennessee vary but you can expect labor for spreading and compacting to run roughly $40 to $100 per hour or $50 to $150 per visit for a small driveway, while some contractors price by the ton or job. If you hire spreading and compaction, add the contractor fee to material delivery; Hello Gravel can deliver the material and many customers hire local contractors separately for spreading. Always get written estimates that list travel, machine time, and clean-up so you can compare total costs.

Permit requirements depend on property location and whether you alter a public right-of-way; many rural Crump properties do not require a permit for a driveway on private property, but curb cuts, drainage changes, or work in county right-of-way may need county or state approval. If you are in an HOA or subdivision, check the HOA rules before ordering material. When in doubt, contact Crump city hall or Chester County planning/engineering to confirm local rules before you start.

Heavy rains can wash fines and create ruts, especially where underlying clay holds water, while occasional freeze-thaw can cause surface heaving in poorly drained areas. Expect to regrade and top-dress driveways every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic and drainage, and address standing water with improved slope, culverts, or drainage swales to extend gravel life. Installing a compacted base and geotextile fabric reduces maintenance in these local conditions.

Recycled crushed concrete is often available regionally and is commonly used as a cost-saving base layer; it compacts well and can be cheaper than virgin stone. However, recycled material can have variable sizes, more fines, and discoloration, so it is best for base layers or utility pads rather than top-dress for a decorative driveway. Ask for material samples and intended use so you can compare performance and price for your Crump project.

Use the Hello Gravel website to check your zip code, choose the gravel type and quantity (minimum 3 tons), and pick a preferred delivery date; standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries arrive by dump truck (typically tri-axle); you can add delivery notes for a preferred drop location and request tailgate spreading at checkout, but spreading is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed.
