Gravel in empire, GA

Prices in West Georgia, including empire, typically vary by gravel type and supplier; expect a broad range rather than a single fixed price. Material-only costs commonly fall between about $30 and $80 per ton, with decorative or washed gravels toward the higher end; delivery, minimum order, and local availability can change the final price. Check your zip code on Hello Gravel for exact pricing and available types, and remember our minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days.

Yes—crush-and-run (also called crusher run) is generally less expensive than decorative, washed, or rounded gravels because it is a mix of crushed stone and fines designed for base layers. In empire and West Georgia it's commonly used for driveways and bases where appearance is less important, while decorative gravels cost more but give a cleaner look and better drainage. Choose crush-and-run for a budget-friendly base, and request decorative gravel for top layers if appearance matters.

Hello Gravel typically uses tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10 to 14 tons of gravel, depending on material density and local truck limits. The delivered cost depends on the number of tons, the material type, and delivery fees; multiply the per-ton price by the tons needed and add any delivery or spreading fees.

Coverage depends on the depth you plan to lay the gravel: one ton of typical gravel is about 0.75 cubic yards, which covers roughly 243 sq ft at 1 inch depth, about 121 sq ft at 2 inches, and about 81 sq ft at 3 inches. These are approximate values—actual coverage varies with stone size, settling, and compaction, which are relevant in our humid West Georgia climate where some settling can occur. When in doubt, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or round up to account for compaction and waste.

A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft; at a common 3-inch depth you'll need about 3.7 cubic yards, which is roughly 5.2 tons of gravel. Material costs vary by type—using a mid-range example of $50 per ton, material would be about $260, plus delivery and any spreading fees; final price depends on the gravel type and supplier in West Georgia.

Crusher run compacts well and creates a stable base, but because it contains fines it drains slower than clean, washed stone. In empire's humid climate, crusher run is a good base layer under driveways or pavers but not ideal as a final surface where fast drainage is needed. For better drainage on top layers, choose clean washed gravel or larger graded stone and consider a layer of crusher run beneath for stability.

Yes—many empire homeowners use crusher run or 3/4" minus crushed stone as the base because it compacts tightly, then add a 1-2 inch layer of clean, decorative gravel as the topcoat for appearance and improved drainage. The base should be compacted and graded to shed water, especially given West Georgia rains, while the top layer provides the finished look and traction. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout and note drivers perform spreading at their discretion.

Asphalt millings are a recycled alternative often used for driveways and can be similar or slightly cheaper than base gravel depending on local availability in West Georgia. Millings compact into a firm surface that can behave like asphalt over time, but they perform differently than natural gravel and may have different drainage and appearance characteristics.
