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.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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 Doraville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Doraville has a city population of 10,623 and sits within a growing West Georgia metro with a metro area population of 2.3+ million. With a steady growth rate of 2.10% annually, residential projects, driveway upgrades, and landscape renovations are common — creating steady local demand for bulk aggregates like gravel. Doraville's moderate climate (Hardiness Zone 8b), 228/year sunny days, and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall mean homeowners need materials that manage runoff, resist erosion, and perform year-round. Gravel is a practical choice because it improves drainage, minimizes mud during wet periods, and compacts well for driveways and paths. Homeowners often choose gravel to cut maintenance, improve curb appeal, and provide an economical base for patios, walkways, and parking areas.Popular Projects in Doraville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Doraville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Doraville.
Delivered prices vary by supplier and season, but expect approximate ranges: crushed stone $30-60 per ton (about $45-90 per cubic yard), pea gravel $35-70 per ton (about $52-105 per cubic yard), and crusher run $25-50 per ton (about $37-75 per cubic yard). Prices are estimates and can change with local demand, trucking, and site access. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and shows local supplier pricing when you enter your zip code.
For driveways on Doraville's clay soils, use a compactable base like crusher run or 3/4" minus topped with 3/4" crushed stone or angular stone for traction. Walkways and patios do well with pea gravel or 3/8" crushed stone for a smoother surface, while drainage projects usually require clean washed stone (1/2" to 1") or river rock to promote flow. Local humidity and heavy rains mean using angular, interlocking stone and a stable base is especially important.
Approximate amounts: a 1-car driveway (12x20 ft) at 3" depth needs about 2.3 cubic yards (roughly 3.5 tons), a 2-car driveway (20x20 ft) at 3" needs about 3.7 cubic yards (roughly 5.5 tons), a 10x10 patio at 2" needs about 0.7 cubic yards (roughly 1.1 tons), and a 100 ft walkway 3 ft wide at 2" needs about 0.8 cubic yards (roughly 1.2 tons). Always round up 5-10% for compaction and waste, and remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers that deliver in the Doraville area; enter your zip code on our site or contact sales for supplier options. Many local suppliers have similar minimums (often 3-5 tons) and may charge short-haul or job-site access fees for tight driveways or steep lots. For spreading, ask at checkout—drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed.
Rules vary by neighborhood and DeKalb County zoning; some Doraville subdivisions or HOAs limit driveway materials, widths, or curb cuts and may require approval before installation. Check your HOA covenants and contact Doraville city planning or DeKalb County permitting to confirm any permits or setback requirements before ordering materials. It’s best to verify restrictions early to avoid ordering the wrong material.
With proper base prep and drainage, a gravel driveway typically lasts 5-10 years before a full refresh is needed, while periodic maintenance like regrading, adding 1/2" to 1" of new gravel, and weed control is usually needed every 1-3 years. In Doraville’s hot, humid climate and heavy-rain seasons expect more rutting and material loss in low spots; good compaction, edging, and keeping drainage clear will reduce maintenance. Plan for occasional top-ups and regrading after major storms.
A simple cost breakdown for a basic gravel driveway: materials 30-50% of the total, delivery 5-15% (higher for short-haul or small orders), labor/base prep 30-50%, and edging/drainage 5-15%. For example, a compacted 2-car driveway (20x20 ft) can range widely depending on prep and contractor rates, but expect several hundred to a few thousand dollars; request local quotes through Hello Gravel to get site-specific estimates. Always include base prep and proper drainage in estimates—skipping these saves money short term but increases maintenance costs.
Gravel can work well if you build a proper base: install geotextile fabric, 4-6" of compactable crusher run or crushed stone sub-base, and a 1-3" topcoat of finished gravel. The fabric prevents mixing with clay, and the thicker crushed base helps stabilize soft spots common in local clay soils. Also add surface drainage (swales, French drains) to carry water away from the gravel where heavy rains concentrate.
Gravel has lower upfront costs and faster installation but higher ongoing maintenance (periodic grading, topping up, weed control) and may need more frequent attention after heavy rains. Asphalt and concrete cost more up front, require less frequent surface maintenance, and generally perform better for higher-traffic areas, but they can crack and need costly repairs. For many Doraville homeowners, gravel is cost-effective for lower-traffic driveways or decorative areas, while asphalt/concrete is better for long-term low-maintenance needs.
Gravel prices can fluctuate with demand, fuel costs, and after heavy storm seasons; late fall and winter are sometimes quieter with better availability and lower prices, while spring and summer demand can push prices up. For large projects, buying in bulk and scheduling delivery on quieter weekdays can reduce per-ton costs and delivery fees; use Hello Gravel to compare local supplier rates and delivery windows. Always confirm lead times and check for short-notice fees after major weather events.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
