Gravel in Adairsville, GA

Typical delivered gravel prices in West Georgia (including Adairsville) generally run about $20 to $45 per ton depending on the type (crusher run, #57, pea gravel, etc.) and truck access. A rough conversion is about 1.2–1.4 tons per cubic yard, so expect roughly $25 to $60 per cubic yard. Final price depends on material, delivery distance, load size (minimum 3 tons), and any spreading fees—check your zip code for exact rates.

For Adairsville's clay and humid conditions, crushed stone with angular edges (for example 3/4" crushed stone or #57) is usually best because it locks together and drains better than rounded gravel. A layered approach—geotextile fabric, a compacted layer of larger crushed base, then a top wearing course of finer crushed stone—reduces rutting and washouts. Add a slight crown and proper drainage to keep water off the surface; pea gravel or river rock look nice but can migrate and rut on clay without a solid base.

Use these example estimates and adjust for depth: a 20x10 patio (200 sq ft) needs about 1.2 cubic yards (≈1.5–2 tons) at 2" depth or ~2.5 cubic yards (≈3–4 tons) at 4" depth. A typical 2-car driveway (about 20' x 40' = 800 sq ft) requires roughly 10 cubic yards (≈12–14 tons) at 4" depth and about 15 cubic yards (≈18–20 tons) at 6". A 100 ft farm road at 10' wide (1,000 sq ft) needs about 12–13 cubic yards (≈15–18 tons) at 4" depth; increase amounts for wider lanes or deeper base. These are estimates—use a material calculator or contact Hello Gravel with your exact dimensions for a quote.

Hello Gravel connects you with local aggregate suppliers and contracted haulers that serve the Adairsville area, and most will deliver by tri-axle dump truck (minimum 3 tons). Tailgate spreading is sometimes available but is performed at the driver's discretion; you can request it at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. For specific supplier names, delivery windows, and spreading options provide your zip code on Hello Gravel to see local options and pricing.

Permit and HOA rules vary: check Adairsville city zoning or Bartow County public works for any setback, right-of-way, or stormwater requirements before starting work. Many residential gravel driveways do not require a building permit, but curb cuts, drainage changes, or work in a city right-of-way may. If you belong to an HOA, review the covenants or ask the HOA for material and appearance rules before installing gravel.

Contractor-installed gravel driveways in the Adairsville area typically run about $2 to $6 per square foot, depending on excavation, base material, compaction, and edging requirements. Labor and equipment often add $10 to $30 per ton on top of the material cost; a standard 2-car driveway (≈800 sq ft) can cost from about $1,600 to $4,800 installed. Get multiple local quotes and confirm what the price includes (grading, fabric, compaction, edging, and cleanup).

In Adairsville's humid climate with clay subsoils plan on light maintenance yearly (weed control and minor pothole repair) and regrading/reshaping every 1–3 years, with material replenishment every 2–5 years depending on traffic. Simple regrading with a skid-steer or tractor often costs $100–$400, weed-control applications $30–$100 each, and replenishment costs equal the price of the gravel multiplied by the tons you need. Good drainage, periodic compaction, and keeping vegetation at bay will reduce long-term costs.

Gravel is the lowest up-front cost and the best for drainage, making it a common choice for rural Adairsville properties, but it requires regular maintenance and can rut on clay soils. Asphalt offers a smoother surface and lower routine upkeep than gravel at a moderate cost, but it is less permeable and will eventually need resurfacing. Concrete is the most durable and low-maintenance option but has the highest installation cost and poor permeability; choose based on budget, desired appearance, traffic, and whether drainage/permeability is a priority.
