Gravel in Chatsworth, GA

Prices vary by material and supplier, but in West Georgia a delivered ton of basic crushed gravel typically ranges from about $40 to $90 per ton including local delivery and taxes. Decorative gravels like pea stone or colored rock are usually at the higher end of that range. For an exact, guaranteed price for your zip code and project, get a quote through Hello Gravel since local sourcing and truck access affect the final cost.

A standard tri-axle dump truck usually delivers roughly 10 to 15 tons of gravel to a Chatsworth address, depending on material and truck size. Expect the delivered truck cost to equal the per-ton price multiplied by the load plus a delivery or truck fee, which commonly ranges from $150 to $400 depending on distance and site access. Request a quote on Hello Gravel so we can match you with local haulers and show the full per-truck total.

A typical 2-car driveway of about 20 ft by 20 ft (400 sq ft) needs roughly 5 tons of gravel for a 3-inch surface layer, or about 7 tons for a 4-inch layer. If you include a compacted base layer for heavy loads, plan on significantly more material. Using local delivered pricing ranges, a surface-only supply would commonly cost in the low hundreds to around $500, but get a precise quote through Hello Gravel because exact tonnage and material choice change the total.

Using typical material density, 1 ton of gravel covers about 110 to 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth and about 55 to 60 square feet at a 4-inch depth. These are approximate figures; actual coverage changes with the gravel size and how tightly it is compacted. When planning, always round up and allow extra for grading, settling, and spillage.

Yes, gravel is commonly used as a low-maintenance mulch in Chatsworth and works well with the area’s rainfall and clay soils when installed correctly. Pea gravel, decomposed granite, and small crushed stone (3/8" to 1/2") are popular choices because they allow drainage and resist compaction. Lay landscape fabric and a 1 to 2-inch layer for decorative beds, and note that gravel does not retain moisture like organic mulch, so plan irrigation accordingly.

For driveways and heavy-use areas, a compacted base of crushed stone or 'road base' (commonly Class II or 2-inch minus) and a layer of geotextile fabric are recommended to stabilize gravel over Chatsworth’s clay soils. Many local suppliers listed through Hello Gravel can deliver those base materials, and some haulers offer spreading and basic compaction, but spreading is at the driver’s discretion and may incur extra fees. Contact our team to include base materials in your quote and ask about available site services.

Common issues in Chatsworth include gravel migration into lawns, rutting under heavy vehicles, weed growth, and dust or mud when mixed with local clay soils. Mitigate these by installing proper edging, a compacted base, geotextile fabric, and choosing the correct gravel size for traffic loads; periodic top-up is normal. Good drainage and routine maintenance will reduce most problems.

The ‘rule of 3’ suggests using three complementary elements: a larger base aggregate for stability, a mid-size binder layer, and a smaller surface stone for appearance. For example, use 1.5" minus or crushed rock for a base, 3/4" minus as a binder, and 3/8" pea gravel or crushed stone for the top dressing. Mention your color preferences in Order Notes and ask your Hello Gravel rep for local examples since regional stone color varies in West Georgia.

Local suppliers and contracted haulers in the Chatsworth area generally offer delivery, and some offer spreading or basic tailgate spreading for an added fee. Spreading fees vary widely — sometimes a per-truck flat fee of $50 to $250 or a per-ton charge of roughly $2 to $10 — and drivers will assess safety and access on arrival. Always request spreading during checkout and confirm any service fees on your Hello Gravel quote.

For heavy-vehicle driveways in Chatsworth, use a compactable, angular crushed stone with fines (for example, 3/4" minus or recycled concrete) laid over a robust base to resist rutting. For residential walkways, pea gravel, decomposed granite, or 3/8" crushed stone provides a comfortable, attractive surface. Base materials for driveways are generally inexpensive per ton compared with decorative gravels; decorative options cost more due to smaller sizes and color, so expect driveway base stone to be on the lower end of the price range and surface decorative gravel on the higher end.
