Gravel in Dothan, AL

Prices vary by gravel type, local availability, and haul distance, but a delivered 10-yard load to Dothan typically ranges from a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars depending on material. Crushed stone is usually on the low end, decorative river rock on the high end. The best way to get an exact price is to request a quote on Hello Gravel — we show local supplier rates and delivery fees for your zip code.

A 20 ft by 10 ft driveway is 200 sq ft. At 2 inches you need about 1.25 cubic yards, and at 4 inches about 2.5 cubic yards. Note that Hello Gravel’s minimum order is typically 3 tons (about 2–2.5 cubic yards depending on material), and delivery cost depends on material and distance — request a checkout quote to see the exact delivered price for Dothan.

Two inches is usually only a surface layer and is not enough by itself for a long‑lasting driveway in Dothan’s climate. For a stable, well‑draining driveway we recommend a compacted base of 4–6 inches of crushed stone or crusher-run, plus a 2–3 inch wearing layer of gravel on top. Proper base, compaction, and drainage reduce rutting and washout in our hot, sometimes heavy‑rain environment.

Crushed stone or recycled construction aggregate is usually the lowest‑cost gravel available for delivery in Dothan. Bulk delivery is almost always cheaper per ton or cubic yard than buying the same material in bags when you need more than a few bags, but factor in Hello Gravel’s minimum order and any delivery fee. For very small jobs (less than a cubic yard) buying bagged material at a local store can make sense.

A 10x10 patio is 100 sq ft; at 2 inches depth you need about 0.62 cubic yards, and at 3 inches about 0.93 cubic yards (roughly 0.9–1.3 tons). Hello Gravel can deliver pea gravel to Dothan, but our minimum order typically exceeds that amount, so you may need to order the minimum or consider a nearby retailer for small quantities. Tailgate spreading is available at the driver’s discretion if requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed.

You can put gravel directly on dirt for low‑use paths, but for driveways and patios we recommend installing a compacted stone base (3–6 inches of crusher‑run or clean crushed stone) and a layer of geotextile fabric to improve drainage and reduce mixing. Adding a 4‑inch base will roughly double or triple your material needs compared with a thin top layer, so expect to order additional cubic yards — request a quote and use Hello Gravel’s calculator to see exact quantities and pricing for Dothan.

Delivery fees in Dothan depend on the supplier, truck type, and distance, but many local orders qualify for free or low‑cost delivery while others may add $50–$200. Hello Gravel shows delivered pricing up front for your zip code so you can see the haul fee before you buy. Factors that increase fees include small orders, long travel distances, tight access, or special drop locations.

A 7x14 dump trailer’s volume depends on side height: with 12–18 inch sides it typically holds roughly 5–7 cubic yards, while with 2–3 foot sides it can hold 7–11 cubic yards. However, weight limits (GVWR and axle ratings) often limit how much gravel you can legally and safely haul — a few cubic yards of gravel can weigh several thousand pounds. For small jobs under the Hello Gravel minimum or where you already have a suitable truck, renting and hauling can be cost‑effective; for larger loads or to avoid heavy lifting and loading time, bulk delivery is usually easier and often cheaper overall.

The lowest‑cost option depends on quantity and your time/equipment: for very small amounts, buying bagged gravel or a pickup load may be cheapest; for moderate to large quantities, bulk delivery is typically the best value per ton because you avoid rental and labor costs. Account for Hello Gravel’s minimum order and delivery fee, plus your time and any rental insurance — get a delivered quote and compare it to local pickup or trailer rental costs to make the final decision for Dothan.

Typical delivered price ranges to Dothan can vary widely: crushed stone might fall on the lower end, pea gravel in the mid range, and decorative river rock on the higher end. As an example range you might see crushed stone in the low hundreds to under $1,000 for 10 yards, pea gravel from about $700 to $1,500, and river rock from around $1,200 to $2,500 or more — exact prices depend on supplier inventory and haul distance.
