Gravel in Yorkville, TN

Prices in West Tennessee can vary with supplier and stone type, but expect roughly $30 to $45 per ton delivered in the Yorkville area. A useful rule of thumb is 1 cubic yard of gravel equals about 1.4 tons, so that works out to about $42 to $63 per cubic yard. Final price depends on material type, quantity, delivery distance, and any access or spreading requests.

Suppliers serving Yorkville commonly offer crushed limestone, #57 stone, pea gravel, and river rock. Crushed limestone and #57 are typical for driveways and base layers because they compact well; pea gravel is used for walkways and decorative areas; river rock is often used for accents and drainage features. Regional availability means appearance and exact sizes can vary by supplier.

For a typical Yorkville driveway, aim for a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches for a 1-car driveway and 6 to 8 inches for a 2-car or heavily used driveway. Example estimates: a 1-car (12 ft x 24 ft) at 6u0022 needs about 6 to 8 tons; a 2-car (20 ft x 40 ft) at 6u0022 needs about 30 to 40 tons; a long rural drive (12 ft x 500 ft) at 6u0022 needs roughly 220 to 260 tons. Use the calculator on our site or this formula (sq ft x depth in inches / 324 = cubic yards, then multiply by ~1.4 to get tons) for your exact measurements.

In West Tennessee, heavy rains are the main issue—runoff can cause rutting and washouts—while freeze-thaw cycles are less severe than in northern states but still possible. Expect to grade and top-dress a gravel driveway once a year, with spot repairs after heavy storms; adding 1 to 2 inches of fresh stone every 2 to 3 years is common. Good drainage, proper base depth, and occasional regrading will prolong performance in Yorkville's climate.

Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order. Many local suppliers and haulers in the Yorkville area also work with 3 to 5 ton minimums for dump deliveries, though remote or difficult-access sites may have higher minimums or added fees. Standard delivery is usually scheduled 2+ business days after ordering, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee.

Gravel generally has the lowest upfront cost and is quick to install, but it requires ongoing maintenance like grading and topping. Asphalt is a middle-ground option with smoother driving surface and lower maintenance than gravel but higher initial cost; concrete is the most expensive up front and lasts longest if installed on stable subgrade. For Yorkville properties with rural access, frequent heavy runoff, or budget constraints, gravel is often the practical choice; for higher-traffic or low-maintenance needs, consider asphalt or concrete.

Angular crushed stone such as #3 or #57 is best for slope stabilization because it locks together and resists movement, while larger rock or riprap is used in channels and at outlets to stop erosion. Combining a stable base layer, geotextile fabric, and correctly sized stone will greatly improve drainage and reduce washouts on Yorkville slopes. For severe erosion, consult a local contractor or engineer who knows West Tennessee runoff patterns.

With routine maintenance (grading, filling low spots, and adding stone), a gravel driveway in West Tennessee can serve well for 10 to 20 years before needing a major rebuild. Periodic resurfacing typically means adding 1 to 2 inches of fresh stone every 2 to 5 years; material costs are the main expense (see local delivered price estimates), and contractor regrading or spreading adds labor—small jobs often run a few hundred dollars, while larger resurfacing projects can run into the low thousands. Exact costs depend on quantity, access, and whether you hire a contractor or do it yourself.
