Gravel in Baldwin, GA

In Baldwin and West Georgia, common gravel types usually range from about $25 to $45 per ton delivered, depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, crusher run) and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel prices vary by local supplier and haul distance; remember we have a 3-ton minimum and delivery fees or free delivery offers depend on your zip code.

Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and contracted dump truck fleets that deliver to Baldwin by tri-axle trucks. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion for an extra fee or included in some local services; request spreading at checkout and note that the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival.

For Baldwin's climate, crusher run (crusher fines) and 3/4" crushed stone are top choices for driveways because they compact well; pea gravel works for decorative areas and some light-traffic drives but shifts more easily. For drainage, washed stone (1/2" to 1") or clean drain rock performs best to keep water moving away from foundations and low spots.

A basic gravel driveway installation in Baldwin, including grading, base material, and compaction, commonly ranges from about $1,000 to $5,000 depending on size and site prep needs. Heavy site work, poor soils, or extra grading can push costs higher, so get a local quote and check whether the price includes geotextile, edging, and compaction.

Use this quick estimate: Tons = length(ft) x width(ft) x depth(in) x 0.003. For example, a 1-car driveway (12x20) at 3" depth needs about 2.2 tons (order 3 tons), and a 2-car driveway (20x40) at 3" depth needs about 7.2 tons (order 8 tons). If your Baldwin property has clay or poor subgrade, add 25% or more for a thicker base.

A well-built gravel driveway in Baldwin can last 5 to 15 years before a major refresh is needed, depending on traffic and drainage. Plan light maintenance—raking, filling potholes, and adding new gravel—every 6 to 12 months, with a thicker top-up every 2 to 5 years for most residential drives.

Heavy rains can cause washouts and rutting, while hot summers can loosen fines and reduce compaction over time. Control erosion with proper slope and drainage (swales or culverts), edge restraints, geotextile fabric to separate subgrade from gravel, and by installing larger stone in high-flow areas to slow runoff.

Gravel is the lowest upfront cost and easy to repair, but requires regular maintenance and may need freshening every few years. Asphalt costs more initially and needs sealcoating and periodic repairs, while concrete has the highest upfront cost and lower routine maintenance; choose based on budget, desired maintenance level, and expected vehicle traffic.

Permit and HOA rules vary by property. In Baldwin (Putnam County), you should check Putnam County public works or planning and any local HOA covenants before installing or changing a driveway, especially if you need a curb cut, work in a right-of-way, or are changing drainage patterns.

Common add-ons include geotextile fabric ($0.30 to $1.00 per sq ft installed), edge restraints like timber or stone ($3 to $12 per linear foot), regrading or site prep ($200 to $1,000+ depending on scope), and mechanical spreading/compaction services (typically $75 to $300 extra). Prices depend on site access, material type, and local labor rates, so request itemized estimates.
