Gravel in Rehobeth, AL

Costs depend on gravel type and delivery distance, but expect a typical range of $600 to $1,500 for materials plus delivery for 1,000 sq ft. Cheaper crushed stone or pea gravel is usually $0.25 to $0.50 per sq ft at common depths, while decorative river rock can be $1.00 per sq ft or more; delivery in West Alabama may be free in many areas or add $50 to $200 depending on distance and tonnage.

Pea gravel is generally cheaper than river rock and gives better value for walkways and decorative beds because it is easier to source and spread. River rock is larger, more decorative, and typically costs more per ton; it also shifts more underfoot, so it is less suitable for driveways unless installed over a stable base and edging.

Use the rule of thumb: tons = (square feet x depth in inches) / 230. For 1,000 sq ft that equals about 8.7 tons (2"), 13.0 tons (3"), and 17.4 tons (4"). Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum; many West Alabama deliveries are free for nearby suppliers, but typical delivery fees when charged run from about $50 to $250 depending on distance, access, and tonnage.

For driveways in West Alabama's warm, often clayey soils, crushed stone (3/4" minus or 3/4"-1") is best because it compacts well and sheds water. Pea gravel works nicely for walkways and seating areas due to comfort underfoot, while river rock and larger decorative stone are best for accents, dry stream beds, and mulching around plants. In clay-prone areas, add a geotextile fabric and a compacted crushed-stone base to improve drainage and reduce rutting.

Yes, many local suppliers in West Alabama offer volume discounts for larger orders; common breakpoints are around 10 tons and 20 tons where per-ton pricing improves. Ask Hello Gravel for a custom quote—our platform negotiates regional supplier rates and can show bulk pricing when you enter your zip code.

Hello Gravel arranges dump-truck delivery to Rehobeth using contracted haulers; drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if you request it at checkout. Tailgate spreading is not guaranteed and, when available, may incur a separate fee set by the supplier or driver (commonly $50 to $200); full mechanical spreading typically requires a local contractor.

Rules vary by municipality and county, so check with the Rehobeth town office or your county planning department before installing a driveway that alters road access, drainage, or right-of-way. For most private residential projects away from curb cuts, special permits are not required, but driveways that connect to a public road or involve ditch-work may need approval or a drive permit.

A well-built gravel driveway in West Alabama can last many years with regular maintenance; expect to regrade and add 1 to 2 inches of fresh material every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and weather. Periodic grading after heavy rains, adding edge restraints, and topping high-traffic ruts will keep the surface functional and reduce the need for full rebuilds.

Estimated delivered cost ranges for 1,000 sq ft (using the tonnage rule of 8.7, 13.0, 17.4 tons for 2", 3", 4"): crushed stone (economy) is about $25 to $45/ton, so for 3" expect roughly $325 to $585 plus delivery; pea gravel is about $30 to $50/ton, so a 3" installation runs about $390 to $650 plus delivery; river rock averages $60 to $120/ton, so the same area at 3" could be $780 to $1,560 plus delivery. These are regional estimates; request a zip-code-specific quote on Hello Gravel for firm pricing and delivery fees.

Standard lead time is 2+ business days for most West Alabama deliveries, and Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. During peak landscaping and roadwork season (spring and summer), expect lead times to stretch to 3 to 7 business days in some areas, while quieter winter months can be faster; always check available delivery dates at checkout.

Clear the delivery area of vehicles, low-hanging branches, and obstacles; make sure trucks can access the drop zone with a minimum turnaround and adequate overhead clearance. Mark preferred drop spots in the Order Notes, install edging if you want clean borders, and confirm whether you want tailgate spreading requested at checkout to reduce on-site labor.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
