Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Frequently Asked Questions - Lake Mack-Forest Hills gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lake Mack-Forest Hills.
Order gravel through Hello Gravel's website and check your zip code for local supplier availability in Lake Mack-Forest Hills. We connect you with nearby suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers, let you choose a delivery date, and handle scheduling and payment. Minimum orders start at 3 tons and typical delivery trucks are tri-axle dump trucks, so check site access before delivery.
Prices vary by material type, local supplier, delivery distance, and order size, so the best way to get accurate pricing for Lake Mack-Forest Hills is to request a quote on our site. As a rule of thumb, a single cubic yard of loose gravel in this region typically weighs about 1.3 tons, so if you have a per-cubic-yard price you can multiply by that factor to estimate per-ton cost. Reach out to our sales team or use the online calculator to get a precise local price.
For driveways in Lake Mack-Forest Hills, we recommend an angular crushed stone base (road base or crusher-run) for stability, topped with 3/4" to 1" crushed stone for surface durability and drainage. For bike trails, a compacted crushed stone or decomposed granite surface with a compacted base works best—choose particles that drain well but pack firm. Because the area is sandy and can get wet, adding a geotextile fabric and using angular aggregate helps reduce rutting and washout.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Next-day delivery is not generally offered; availability depends on local supplier and truck schedules. Delivery fees vary by supplier and location; many orders qualify for free delivery but your checkout will show exact fees for Lake Mack-Forest Hills before you pay.
Hello Gravel coordinates material delivery, but full installation and mechanical compaction are not guaranteed services we provide directly; tailgate spreading by the driver may be possible at their discretion. If you need installation, we can often refer local contractors in the Lake Mack-Forest Hills area or help you find equipment rental and compaction specs. Plan to compact the base in 2-inch lifts with a plate compactor or roller for best long-term performance.
For a 10 x 30 ft driveway (300 sq ft), a 3-inch depth requires about 2.8 cubic yards, and a 4-inch depth requires about 3.7 cubic yards. Using a rough conversion of 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons, that is about 3.6 tons for 3 inches and about 4.8 tons for 4 inches; we recommend ordering a little extra to account for compaction and settling. Hello Gravel can calculate quantities for your project on the site and arrange delivery to Lake Mack-Forest Hills—use the calculator or contact our team to confirm exact tonnage.
Local rules vary, so check Lake Mack-Forest Hills city or county permitting offices and any homeowner association covenants before installing a new gravel driveway. Possible requirements include driveway permits, curb-cut approvals, truck access restrictions, and erosion control measures in wet areas. If you need help, our team can point you toward local permit offices and recommend general compliance steps, but you should confirm specifics with local authorities.
Recycled aggregates and crushed concrete or reclaimed asphalt may be available from some local suppliers serving Lake Mack-Forest Hills, depending on regional sourcing. These options can be more sustainable and sometimes cost less, but availability and pricing vary by supplier and job site access. Ask for recycled options when you request a quote and our team will include any price differences in your local estimate.
Yes, recurring deliveries for road or trail top-ups can be arranged—set up a standing schedule through your Hello Gravel account or by contacting our sales team. Contract terms such as frequency, minimum tonnage, pricing adjustments, and notice periods depend on supplier capacity and order size, so we will provide a written plan for Lake Mack-Forest Hills that outlines costs and timing. Expect seasonal adjustments and lead times during busy months.
Discounts or contractor pricing may be available for large or repeat orders in the Lake Mack-Forest Hills area, but they depend on supplier agreements and order frequency. Contractors can inquire about trade or bulk pricing by contacting our sales team and setting up a contractor account. We will do our best to negotiate volume pricing with local suppliers, but discounts are not guaranteed.
Clear the delivery area of vehicles, obstacles, low-hanging branches, and any items that could block a dump truck; ensure a minimum turning radius and overhead clearance for a tri-axle truck. Mark the preferred drop location with flags or cones, confirm any driveway weight limits, and note that drivers will assess safe placement on arrival; tailgate spreading is at their discretion. If your soil is very sandy or wet, consider placing geotextile fabric or a compacted base first to reduce settling and washout.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
