Gravel in Hazlehurst, GA

Delivered gravel prices in Hazlehurst commonly range from about $25 to $55 per ton depending on type (pea gravel, #57, crusher run) and distance from the supplier. Using a conversion of roughly 1 cubic yard = 1.2 tons, that works out to about $30 to $66 per cubic yard. Exact pricing depends on material, order size (minimum 3 tons with Hello Gravel), and any delivery fees or next-day service charges.

For driveways in Hazlehurst, a layered approach works best: compacted crusher run or ABC (crushed stone fines) for the base, topped with #57 or 3/4" crushed stone for a durable wearing surface. Pea gravel looks nice but shifts easily under vehicle traffic and is not ideal for main driveways in our clay soils. Local suppliers often source limestone or granite variants, so expect slight color and texture differences.

Use this quick formula: cubic yards = (area in sq ft x depth in inches) / 324, and then multiply cubic yards by about 1.2 to get tons. Examples at 4" depth: 1-car driveway (12' x 20' ≈ 240 sq ft) needs ~3.0 cu yd or ~3.6 tons; 2-car driveway (24' x 40' ≈ 960 sq ft) needs ~12.0 cu yd or ~14.4 tons; 1,000 sq ft pad at 4" needs ~12.3 cu yd or ~14.8 tons. Order a little extra (5-10%) for grading losses and to allow for final compaction.

Hazlehurst has heavy clay soils and frequent summer storms which slow drainage and increase the risk of rutting and washouts. To maintain stability, install a well-compacted base, proper slope and drainage features (swales or culverts), and consider coarser material or a layered base to promote runoff. Expect to perform more frequent maintenance after heavy rains if you don’t address subgrade and drainage.

Most local suppliers and haulers in the Hazlehurst area deliver by dump truck; Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with a standard lead time of 2+ business days and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply). Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion—request it at checkout but note it is not guaranteed. Lead times for full installation vary by contractor; simple deliveries are usually within a few days, while full-install jobs may need scheduling a week or more out.

Yes. In Hazlehurst’s clay soils, using geotextile fabric under a compacted aggregate base greatly reduces material loss into the subgrade and helps prevent rutting and washout. A common approach is 4–6 inches of compacted crushed stone base over fabric, topped with 2–3 inches of surface gravel; the fabric and compaction extend lifespan and reduce maintenance in wet seasons.

With proper base, drainage and occasional maintenance, a gravel driveway in Hazlehurst can perform well for many years, but it requires ongoing care. Expect to regrade and fill low spots after heavy rains, recompact high-traffic areas every 6–12 months, and add a 1–2 inch top-up layer every 1–3 years depending on use. More frequent attention is needed after severe storms or in areas with poor drainage.

Gravel has the lowest upfront cost (roughly $0.50–$2.00 per sq ft installed depending on depth and material) and is easy to install and maintain, but requires regular upkeep and can wash out in heavy rain. Asphalt is mid-priced (about $3–$6 per sq ft) with smoother results and less frequent maintenance but needs a good base and periodic resealing. Concrete is the most durable and costly (roughly $4–$10 per sq ft) and performs well on clay when properly designed, but has higher initial cost and repair complexity. Consider drainage, traffic levels and long-term maintenance when choosing.

Check pricing and minimums for your zip code, choose the right material and depth for your soil and use, and request delivery dates that avoid forecasted heavy rain. Add order notes with placement preferences and request tailgate spreading if you want the driver to consider it, but remember spreading is at the driver's discretion.
