Gravel: Drainage For Rainy Georgia Yards • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Ellaville
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 Ellaville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Ellaville (city population: 3,690) sits within a growing West Georgia region (metro area population: 2.3+ million) experiencing a 2.10% annual growth rate. The area falls in Hardiness Zone 8b, averages 228 sunny days per year, and receives about 34.00 inches of rain annually, creating a climate that supports steady residential building and outdoor projects. As homes and yards expand, demand for reliable aggregates like gravel rises—for driveways, drainage trenches, patios, and erosion control. Homeowners often choose gravel to create low-maintenance surfaces, stabilize soft spots, and manage water run-off after heavy rains. Clear material specs and accurate quantities matter: the right stone size and delivery plan prevent extra costs and rework. Locally sourced gravel also reflects regional geology, helping new hardscapes blend with existing landscapes.Popular Projects in Ellaville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Ellaville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Ellaville.
In West Georgia, bulk gravel prices commonly range, but a typical ballpark is $30 to $60 per ton depending on type and availability. In Ellaville expect regional variation due to local sources and delivery distance; contact Hello Gravel for a firm quote that includes our minimum 3-ton order and any delivery fees.
One ton of gravel equals about 0.7 cubic yards and will cover roughly 100 to 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth. Coverage varies with stone size and compaction, so we recommend using our material calculator or contacting our team for an exact estimate for your Ellaville project.
Natural gravel is rounded stone from riverbeds or glacial deposits, while crushed gravel (crushed stone) is mechanically broken rock with angular edges. In practice crushed gravel locks together better for driveways and bases, while natural gravel is often looser and may be preferred for decorative uses.
Prices are often similar, but crushed stone can cost a bit more because it requires crushing and screening. Local supply in Ellaville and the specific product (decorative pea gravel versus base crusher run) are the biggest price drivers, so check current quotes for a direct comparison.
A standard tri-axle dump truck commonly used with Hello Gravel carries about 10 to 12 tons (roughly 7 to 9 cubic yards). Cost varies by material and haul distance; get an exact price for Ellaville by requesting a quote through our site, which factors in supplier rates and delivery logistics.
For most DIY jobs in Ellaville, ordering bulk delivery (minimum 3 tons through Hello Gravel) is cheaper per ton than buying bagged stone. Consider basic mixes like crusher run or bank-run material rather than decorative gravels to keep costs low.
No, 2 inches is usually not enough for a driveway. For a stable driveway surface in West Georgia you should plan for 4 to 6 inches of compacted base (aggregate base) plus a 2- to 3-inch wearing course of gravel, especially where soils can be soft or wet.
A 7x14 dump trailer typically holds about 3 to 4 cubic yards of material if filled to a safe level, which equates to roughly 4 to 6 tons depending on the gravel density. Actual capacity depends on side height and how full you load it, so confirm with your hauler before filling.
A 20x20 area (400 sq ft) at a 3-inch depth needs about 3.7 cubic yards, roughly 5 tons of gravel. With local material prices often between $30 and $60 per ton, expect material costs around $150 to $300 before delivery and spreading; request a quote for exact pricing in Ellaville.
Basic mixes like crusher run, bank-run, or screenings are generally the least expensive options because they are widely available and require less processing. Decorative gravels such as pea gravel or colored stone typically cost more due to sorting and appearance.
Regular gravel does not harden like concrete on its own. If you need a firmer, bound surface consider using stabilized products such as recycled asphalt millings, gravel mixed with a polymer stabilizer, or a compacted base with a paving surface; availability varies in West Georgia.
Type 3 generally refers to a graded aggregate blend used as a base layer for roads and driveways, containing a mix of coarse stone and fines for compaction. Specifications can vary by state and supplier, so ask your Hello Gravel quote for the exact gradation available in the Ellaville area.
Asphalt millings can be a cost-effective alternative and often compact into a firm surface that performs well for driveways, but price and availability depend on local demolition activity. Compare local quotes for millings versus gravel and consider long-term performance and maintenance before deciding.
