If your driveway is 20 ft by 20 ft (400 sq ft) and you want a 2-inch finished depth, you need about 3.3 tons (roughly 2.5 cubic yards) before compaction; we recommend ordering 10-20% extra so plan on about 4 tons. At the typical delivered price range above, expect delivery-only cost of roughly $160 to $340; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum on many routes, and our calculator and quotes will give a precise total for your address.

Using a common crushed-stone density (about 1.35 tons per cubic yard), 1 ton covers approximately 240 sq ft at 1u0022 depth, about 120 sq ft at 2u0022 depth, and about 80 sq ft at 3u0022 depth. These are approximate figures; actual coverage can vary with stone size, moisture, and compaction, so round up slightly when ordering.

Hello Gravel generally requires a 3-ton minimum order, though some local suppliers or bagged-product retailers may sell smaller quantities; smaller deliveries often carry higher per-ton rates. Tailgate spreading may be available at checkout as a request, but drivers perform spreading at their discretion and Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services.

Lower-cost options typically include pit-run or bank-run material and recycled crushed concrete (RCA), which often cost less than washed, graded decorative stone. Cheaper materials can be more variable in size, color, and dust content, so consider tradeoffs between price and finished appearance and ask for samples or photos before ordering.

Yes. Removing sand, gravel, or rock from state-owned shorelines, streams, or wetlands is typically regulated and may require permits from state or county authorities; it is not recommended to collect material yourself without checking rules. Contact the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality or your county permitting office for specifics before attempting any removal.

For driveway base layers use crusher-run or ABC (a mix of fines and stone) for stability and compaction, then top with 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57 stone for a durable driving surface. For drainage trenches or dry swales use 1-2u0022 clean stone or larger drain rock; pea gravel is good for walking areas or decorative top layers but not great as a structural base.

Possibly. Some rural roads, tight lanes, bridges, or HOA rules can restrict large dump-truck access or impose weight limits; customers should note narrow approaches, low-hanging wires, and any local restrictions when ordering. If special permits or escorts are required, our team will advise, but customers should confirm access with their county public works when in doubt.
