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 Fairmount Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fairmount’s city population: 3,980 and a growth rate: 2.10% annually mean steady demand for residential upgrades, new driveways, and yard projects. Located in Hardiness Zone: 8b with Sunny Days: 228/year and annual rainfall: 34.00 inches, the area supports active outdoor work most of the year but also requires materials that handle seasonal wet spells. With a nearby metro area population: 2.3+ million supporting regional development, homeowners and contractors in Fairmount look for reliable aggregates that deliver consistent drainage, stable bases for paving, and low-maintenance landscaping finishes. Quality gravel helps prevent rutting, supports proper water runoff, and serves as a durable, permeable alternative to solid paving for many local projects. Gravel performs well in Fairmount when matched to site conditions: coarse, angular gravels offer good compaction and drainage for driveways and bases, while smoother decorative gravels work for pathways and garden accents. Given Fairmount’s annual rainfall: 34.00 inches and Sunny Days: 228/year, drainage-minded choices and proper installation (geotextile fabric, edge restraint, correct depth) extend performance. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers, handles order coordination and dump-truck delivery (minimum order: 3 tons), and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days with next-day options for qualifying orders, making it easier to get the right gravel when you need it.Popular Projects in Fairmount This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fairmount gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fairmount.
Typical delivered prices for common gravel in the Fairmount/West Georgia area generally run in the range of about $30 to $60 per ton, depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, #57, etc.), seasonal demand, and local supplier availability. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum on orders; exact pricing for your zip code is available at checkout or by requesting a quote. Prices can fluctuate, so we recommend getting a current quote for your project.
A delivered tri-axle load to Fairmount typically contains about 10 to 14 tons and will usually cost between roughly $300 and $900 delivered, depending on per-ton price and total tonnage. For example, a 12-ton load at $40 per ton would cost about $480 delivered; your final quote will reflect your material choice, minimum order, and any delivery access charges. Use our checkout or call sales for an exact, up-to-date delivered price to your address.
Most local end-dump or tri-axle trucks used for residential deliveries carry about 10 to 14 tons of gravel, depending on the truck and the material's density. Some smaller dump trucks may hold 6 to 8 tons, while larger commercial trucks can carry more. Hello Gravel partners with local fleets, so the truck type and exact payload will be confirmed on your delivery details.
A common example: a 100-foot long by 10-foot wide driveway at a 3-inch depth requires about 9.3 cubic yards, or roughly 13 tons of gravel. At a delivered price range of $35 to $55 per ton that equals about $455 to $715 for supply and delivery, not including any extra access fees or spreading labor. Final cost depends on your exact width, desired depth, material choice, and site access; request a quote for a precise number.
No — 2 inches of loose gravel is usually too thin for a driveway and will wash out or rut quickly. We recommend at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel for light residential use, and 4 to 6 inches where vehicles park or heavier loads are expected, with a properly prepared base underneath. If you need installation help or a contractor referral, our team can connect you with local providers.
In West Georgia, per-ton delivered gravel prices commonly fall between $30 and $60 per ton depending on type and season. A typical 10 to 14-ton dump truck load therefore usually runs between about $300 and $900 delivered, with the mid-range near $400 to $600 being common for many residential materials. Exact pricing varies by material, supplier, and delivery logistics, so get a quote for current rates.
Pickup from a local pit or supplier can be the cheapest option per ton if you have a suitable truck or trailer to transport material yourself, since you avoid delivery charges. Bulk delivery is more convenient for homeowners without transport and often competitive once you factor in time and labor; contractor reuse (recycling on-site) can be cheapest if you already have good reusable material. Check our pricing and compare a pickup quote vs delivery to see which is best for your situation.
Hello Gravel can provide volume-based pricing and may have seasonal promotions or lower rates for larger orders or repeat deliveries, but discounts depend on supplier availability and timing. Contact our sales team with your project details to discuss bulk pricing or to request multiple-delivery pricing. We will do our best to present any available savings for your specific order.
Extra delivery fees can apply for rural or difficult-to-access addresses — factors include long haul distance from the pit, narrow or steep driveways, soft ground, or off-road drop locations. These access or long-haul fees commonly range from about $25 to $75, but amounts vary by route and supplier. The checkout process will flag any additional charges for your zip code, or you can contact us to review your delivery access before ordering.
Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days from order processing for most Fairmount deliveries. Next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, subject to supplier and truck availability. When you place an order you can select a preferred delivery date and we will confirm timing; weather and local conditions can affect scheduling.
Measure the area (length x width) and choose the desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards by multiplying length (ft) x width (ft) x depth (ft) and dividing by 27. Convert cubic yards to tons by multiplying by about 1.3 to 1.5 (we use roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard for typical gravel). For example, a 100 ft x 10 ft area at 3 inches (0.25 ft) is 250 cubic feet, or 9.26 cubic yards, which is about 13 tons; you can use our online material calculator or contact us for help.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if site conditions allow, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. You can request spreading in the Order Notes at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. If spreading is critical, consider booking a local contractor for a guaranteed spreading and compaction service.
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.
