For Milledgeville's clay soils and humid conditions, a layered approach works best: a compacted base of crusher-run or 3/4" minus material topped with angular 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone for the driving surface. Pea gravel drains but shifts more on clay, so it is not ideal as the primary surface without edging and base stabilization. Consider geotextile fabric and good drainage to reduce sinking and washouts.

A typical 2-car driveway of about 20 ft by 40 ft (800 sq ft) needs roughly 10 to 21 tons depending on depth. At 3" depth expect about 10 to 11 tons, at 4" about 14 tons, and at 6" about 21 tons. Keep in mind clay subgrades in Milledgeville may require thicker sections or a compacted base, and our minimum order is 3 tons.

Crushed stone generally performs better for parking pads because its angular pieces lock together and compact, resisting rutting on Milledgeville's clay soils. For drainage, gap-graded crushed stone like #57 or a base of crusher-run provides good water flow and stability. Pea gravel drains well but is prone to movement and may require edging, more frequent raking, and a solid base to avoid sinking in wet seasons.

In Milledgeville's humid, rainy climate, driveway material usually needs some top-up or regrading every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic, drainage, and maintenance. High-traffic or poorly drained areas may require attention sooner, while well-built driveways with good drainage can go longer. Regular inspection after heavy rains helps you catch low spots before they become larger problems.

Labor and installation costs vary with site prep, grading, and access; a rough range for a basic two-car driveway in West Georgia is about $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft for grading, base prep, and compaction, excluding material. For an 800 sq ft driveway that is about $1,200 to $3,200 in labor plus the material cost. Get local contractor quotes for precise pricing, and remember Hello Gravel can supply material and delivery while contractors handle installation.

Gravel is a cost-effective choice for rural Milledgeville properties and long driveways because it has lower upfront cost and is easier to repair or extend. However, gravel requires more frequent maintenance, creates dust, and can wash out in heavy storms, while asphalt offers a smoother, longer-lasting surface for higher-traffic drives. Choose based on traffic, budget, and willingness to perform routine maintenance.

During the rainy season, expect to regrade ruts and low spots, add material to thin or washed-away areas, and keep drainage features like ditches and culverts clear. Install or maintain edging and consider geotextile fabric to limit mixing of clay subgrade with gravel. Regular light maintenance after storms reduces the need for major repairs later.

Permit requirements vary by location; Baldwin County or Milledgeville city permits are sometimes required for changes to driveways, curb cuts, or stormwater management, and many HOAs have rules on surface materials and appearance. Check with Baldwin County permitting, the City of Milledgeville planning office, and your HOA before starting work.
