Gravel in Crescent, GA

Delivery costs depend on material type and distance to the supplier. In West Georgia expect to pay a delivery fee or have it bundled into the per-ton price; many orders in and around Crescent fall into the per-ton ranges below, but Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days or next-day for an extra fee.

For Crescent's West Georgia soils and rainfall, angular crushed stone (crushed limestone or #57) is usually best for driveways because it compacts and sheds water. Pea gravel is fine for decorative areas and walkways but shifts more in heavy rain, while river rock is decorative for beds and dry creek channels but is not ideal as a driving surface.

For a standard single-car driveway (about 10 ft x 50 ft) you’ll need roughly 6.2 cubic yards: about 8.5-9 tons at 4" depth and about 13 tons at 6" depth. For a two-car driveway (about 20 ft x 50 ft) double those amounts: roughly 17-18 tons at 4" and about 26 tons at 6". Always order 5-10% extra to allow for compaction and grading.

Crushed limestone compacts into a firm, stable surface that handles Crescent’s rain better and requires less frequent regrading, making it a better choice for driveways. Pea gravel is softer and more comfortable for walking and looks decorative, but it moves and washes out more easily in heavy storms and needs edging and more upkeep.

West Georgia gets heavy rain episodes that can wash fines and create ruts if drainage and base aren’t proper. To protect a gravel driveway in Crescent, use a well-compacted base, maintain crown and cross-slope for runoff, and install culverts or ditches where water concentrates.

Plan to grade and re-crown the driveway once a year or after major storms, fill potholes with fresh material and compact, and add 1-2" of top gravel every 1-3 years depending on traffic. Keep vegetation cleared from edges and check culverts and ditches so water is directed away from the gravel surface.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery is 2+ business days from order; next-day delivery is available if you order before noon CST and may carry an additional fee. Some local suppliers can do same-day or expedited delivery, but that depends on local availability and is not guaranteed.

Prices vary by type and supplier: crushed limestone commonly runs about $25-$45 per ton, pea gravel about $35-$60 per ton, and larger decorative river rock $45-$75 per ton in the West Georgia area. One cubic yard equals about 1.3-1.6 tons depending on material, so calculate by weight or by yard and confirm final pricing at checkout.

Local rules vary: Carroll County generally allows gravel driveways, but Crescent city limits, county zoning, or HOA covenants may set standards for curb cut, driveway width, or surface material. Before installing, contact the Crescent/Carroll County building department and your HOA (if applicable) to confirm permit requirements and any culvert or approach standards.

A durable build-up includes: installing geotextile fabric to separate soils, 4-6" (or 8-12" for heavier loads) of compacted crushed base rock (crusher run or 3/4" minus), and a 1-3" top layer of 3/4" crushed stone or preferred surface gravel. Make sure the base is compacted in lifts, the driveway has a slight crown for drainage, and that culverts and side ditches move water away from the roadbed.

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.
