Gravel: Rain-Ready Drainage For Buckhead • Fast Scheduled Gravel Delivery Locally
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
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.

Why Buckhead Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
In Buckhead (city population 2,550), steady expansion at 2.10% annually and a moderate climate (Hardiness Zone 8b, 228 sunny days, 34.00 inches annual rainfall) are driving demand for durable landscaping and sitework materials. Homeowners and small contractors here are adding permeable driveways, French drains, garden paths, and low-maintenance front-yard scapes to handle sunny summers and periodic rain. That growth, combined with sunny, moderate conditions, means reliable aggregates like gravel are widely used for erosion control, base layers, and attractive groundcovers. Quality matters: properly graded gravel reduces settling, improves drainage, and limits migration into lawns or storm systems. For DIYers unfamiliar with aggregate terms, selecting the right size and mix — crushed angular stone for compacted bases, rounded pea gravel for walking surfaces — helps avoid rework and produces long-lasting results.Popular Projects in Buckhead This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Buckhead gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Buckhead.
Prices vary by gravel type and supplier, but in Buckhead you can typically expect delivered gravel to range from about $30 to $70 per ton. Heavier or specialty gravels (decorative, washed, or river rock) are at the higher end, while common crushed stone is at the lower end. Final price depends on availability, seasonal demand, and the supplier we connect you with.
Pea gravel is usually a bit more expensive than basic crushed stone; in Buckhead expect a typical delivered range of $40 to $80 per ton. Color, washing, and bagging add cost, and local supply can push prices up during high-demand times. Check your zip code in checkout for an exact quote from nearby suppliers.
A common tri-axle truck carries roughly 10 to 14 tons of gravel, so multiply the per-ton price by the truck capacity to estimate the load cost. Many Buckhead deliveries are free or included in the per-ton quote, but delivery fees can range from $0 to $150 depending on supplier distance and access. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and will show exact delivery costs at checkout.
Coverage depends on depth. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of typical crushed gravel equals about 0.7 cubic yards, which covers roughly 115 sq ft at 2 inches depth or about 77 sq ft at 3 inches depth. Use those figures to estimate quantities for pathways, patios, or thin driveway layers.
Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (length ft × width ft × depth in) ÷ 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.35 to 1.5 to convert to tons (we typically use 1.4 tons per cubic yard as an estimate). For example, a 100 ft × 10 ft driveway at 3 inches deep needs about 9.26 cubic yards × 1.4 ≈ 13 tons. Always round up and remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons.
Costs depend on width, depth, and material. As an example, a 100 ft × 10 ft driveway at 3 inches deep needs about 13 tons; at $40 per ton delivered that would be roughly $520 for material alone. Add any spreading fees, heavy equipment rental, or extra delivery charges for a more complete estimate; request a quote to get an exact Buckhead price.
Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see regular vehicle traffic, especially in Georgia’s variable weather and clay soils. For a long-lasting residential driveway, plan on at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted driving surface over a stabilized base; heavier use or poor subgrade may need 6 inches or more. If you’re unsure, our team can help size the depth based on your site and intended use.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. If your wheelbarrow holds about 3 to 4 cubic feet (typical homeowner sizes), expect roughly 7 to 9 wheelbarrow loads per cubic yard. If you need tons instead, one cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.35 to 1.5 tons depending on material density.
Delivered prices usually include the trucking cost and are often the most convenient option; in Buckhead delivered gravel typically falls in the $30 to $80 per ton range depending on material. If you pick up from a supplier you may pay a lower per-ton price but you’re responsible for loading, hauling, and truck rental. Hello Gravel shows delivered prices and delivery availability for your zip code at checkout.
Hello Gravel coordinates dump truck delivery with local haulers; many Buckhead deliveries are free or included in the material price, but fees vary by supplier and distance. Tailgate spreading can sometimes be requested at checkout and is performed at the driver’s discretion; if offered by the driver or supplier there may be an additional nominal fee (often $30 to $150). We recommend requesting spreading at checkout and noting access details so the driver can assess feasibility on arrival.
Use Hello Gravel’s online checkout to enter your Buckhead address and material choice; the system shows available suppliers, pricing, and delivery dates. Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
