Gravel in Cornelia, GA

Delivered prices vary by gravel type, supplier, and distance; in Cornelia you’ll typically see a range rather than a single fixed price. Expect ballpark delivered pricing often in the range of $40 to $80 per ton depending on material and season, but check your zip code in our checkout for an exact quote; minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery takes 2+ business days.

Costs depend on width, depth, and whether you need a sub-base or compaction. For a typical 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway (200 sq ft) at 4" depth you would need about 4 tons of top gravel; using a $50/ton delivered example gives roughly $200 for material plus delivery, and labor/compaction and base prep often add several hundred dollars—contact our team for a local quote based on your exact dimensions and site conditions.

Coverage varies with depth because 1 ton of gravel is roughly 18 cubic feet. Typical coverage in Cornelia is about 108 sq ft at 2" depth, 72 sq ft at 3" depth, 54 sq ft at 4" depth, and 36 sq ft at 6" depth; use those numbers to estimate how many tons you need for your project.

A single dump truck load price depends on truck size and material; tri-axle trucks we commonly use typically deliver roughly 10 to 20 tons (often toward the higher end for heavier rock), and pricing scales with tonnage and distance. For an accurate truck-load price for Cornelia, enter your zip code at checkout or contact our team—minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is scheduled via local suppliers.

For walkways in Cornelia, 3/8" pea gravel or small crushed stone (3/8" to 1/2") offers good appearance and drainage, while crushed stone with a small amount of fines (screened mix) compacts better and reduces migration. Add an edge restraint and compact over a shallow base or stabilizing grid for durability, and check local availability since regional stone color and texture vary.

Crushed gravel (3/4" minus or similar) is often the best choice for driveways in Cornelia because it locks together and drains well. Hello Gravel can deliver crushed gravel to your site (standard 2+ business days or next-day option where available), but we do not guarantee compaction or installation services; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, and you should hire a local contractor for professional compaction.

Prepare a stable base by removing organic soil, grading for proper drainage, and installing a geotextile fabric if you have soft or clayey soil common in West Georgia. Add a 3 to 6" crushed stone sub-base (road base or class 2) compacted in layers before placing your top gravel, and slope the driveway slightly to shed water away from structures.

Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway and best reserved for decorative or temporary surfaces. For passenger cars on a prepared base, aim for 3 to 4" of compacted top gravel over a 3 to 6" crushed stone sub-base; for heavier vehicles, RVs, or frequent heavy use, plan on 6 to 8" of compacted material plus a robust sub-base.

Avoid placing gravel directly over loose dirt in Cornelia where clay and poor drainage are common; the gravel will sink and wash out over time. Instead, install geotextile fabric as needed and a compacted crushed-stone sub-base to stabilize the surface—this will extend the life of your gravel and reduce maintenance.

Stabilized options include resin-bound or resin-coated gravels, polymer-stabilized mixes, and gravel grid systems that lock stone in place for a firmer surface. Hello Gravel can deliver these materials where suppliers offer them in your area, but installation and finishing typically require a contractor—check availability by entering your zip code or contact our team for product options and installer recommendations in Cornelia.

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.
