Coverage depends on depth and material density, but one ton of pea gravel usually equals about 0.7 to 0.8 cubic yards. At 2 inches depth that covers roughly 110 to 125 sq ft, at 3 inches about 75 to 85 sq ft, and at 4 inches about 55 to 65 sq ft. Use our material calculator or contact Hello Gravel for a precise estimate for your Peachtree Corners project.

Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, high-traffic driveways, or areas where it will be tracked into the house because it rolls and shifts easily. It is also not ideal for play areas for young children or locations that need a firm, load-bearing surface without a compacted base. For driveways and heavy-use paths in our area’s clay soils, consider crusher-run base with a pea gravel topcoat instead.

Cost depends on truck size and material price, but a typical tri-axle load (about 10 to 12 cubic yards or 12 to 16 tons) can cost anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars once material and delivery are combined. Hello Gravel partners with local haulers and will provide a transparent quote that includes the truck and delivery details for your address. Final cost depends on gravel type, load size, and whether spreading or special access is requested.

Buying in bulk through a delivery service like Hello Gravel is usually the most cost-effective option because per-ton prices drop as quantity increases and delivery is often included. Choose locally sourced common crushed stone rather than specialty decorative stone, and consolidate deliveries to avoid extra truck fees. Picking a nearby supplier in your zip code also reduces hauling distance and cost.

No, 2 inches is not enough for a durable driveway in Peachtree Corners. For a stable, long-lasting gravel driveway you should plan on at least 4 to 6 inches of compacted base stone plus a top dressing of 2 to 3 inches of finish gravel. Soil type in our area (often clay) and drainage conditions may require a thicker base or geotextile fabric to prevent rutting.

A 7x14 dump trailer with typical 2-foot-high sides holds about 6 to 7.5 cubic yards of material, depending on side height and how full the trailer is. That equals roughly 8 to 10 tons of gravel depending on the material density. Always check exact trailer specs before ordering so your delivery matches vehicle capacity.

No, 1 ton is not equal to 1 cubic yard for most gravels. One cubic yard of gravel usually weighs about 1.3 to 1.5 tons, so one ton is typically about 0.65 to 0.8 cubic yards depending on moisture and rock type. Use weight-to-volume conversions when ordering and rely on Hello Gravel’s calculators or our team for help converting for your project.

You can put gravel directly on dirt for small, decorative areas, but for walkways and driveways you should prepare the subgrade to prevent sinking and mixing with soil. In Peachtree Corners’ clay soils, we recommend compacting a base layer, adding a geotextile fabric if needed, and using a compactable base stone beneath the finish gravel. Proper prep improves drainage and reduces long-term maintenance.

Gravel alone does not harden like concrete, but certain mixes and treatments give a firm surface: crusher-run or crusher-fines (stone dust) compacts tightly, and polymer-stabilized gravels or resin-bound systems lock aggregate in place. For a driveable, low-movement surface in Peachtree Corners, contractors often use a compacted base (crusher-run) with a compacted topcoat or a stabilizing product specified for the local climate.

Load capacity varies by truck type: a common tri-axle dump truck used in deliveries carries roughly 12 to 16 tons of gravel, while larger single-axle or commercial trucks can carry 16 to 20+ tons. Hello Gravel typically arranges tri-axle deliveries in our network, but exact tonnage depends on vehicle and local hauling limits. Your order confirmation will list the expected truck type and estimated tonnage.

Cost depends on width, depth, and material choice. For a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at a 4-inch compacted depth you need about 15 cubic yards or roughly 20 to 25 tons; at $40 per ton material plus delivery and prep you might expect a ballpark of $900 to $1,800. Ask Hello Gravel for a tailored quote that includes local delivery, spreading requests, and any recommended base work for Peachtree Corners soils.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet; a typical wheelbarrow carries about 3 cubic feet, so one cubic yard is about 9 wheelbarrow loads. Depending on your wheelbarrow size and how full you load it, plan on roughly 8 to 10 trips per cubic yard. For larger jobs in Peachtree Corners we recommend delivery by dump truck instead of moving material by wheelbarrow.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
