Gravel in Rincon, GA

We deliver bulk gravel (plus sand, dirt, and mulch) to Rincon and nearby West Georgia areas using contracted dump truck fleets. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Minimum order is 3 tons and trucks are typically tri-axle, so plan for a single drop rather than multiple small bags.

Measure length x width x desired depth in feet, multiply to get cubic feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, and then multiply by about 1.4 to convert cubic yards to tons for common gravel. For example, a 12 ft by 50 ft driveway with a 3-inch layer is about 5.6 cubic yards or roughly 8 tons. We recommend ordering a little extra (5-10%) for compaction and spreading; remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum.

Costs vary by material, supplier, and delivery distance, but in West Georgia expect common gravel material prices roughly in the range of $20 to $50 per ton and delivery fees that can be $0 to $150 depending on local promotions and distance. Contractors ordering truckloads often receive lower per-ton pricing and may pay only fuel or haul surcharges for long hauls.

For driveways, crushed stone mixes like crusher run or #57 crushed stone are preferred because they compact well and shed water. Walkways commonly use pea gravel for comfort or 3/8" crushed stone for stability; however, pea gravel can migrate on slopes and in heavy clay soils. In Rincon's humid climate, choose washed, angular stone for drainage and consider geotextile fabric beneath the stone to limit mixing with native clay.

Yes. Heavy Georgia clay holds water and compacts, which can cause rutting or sinking if gravel is placed directly on it. To improve longevity, install a compacted base (crushed rock or crusher run), use geotextile fabric to separate soil and stone, provide positive drainage or a crowned surface, and choose angular, well-draining stone like #57 for the top layer. These steps reduce maintenance and help stone shed water during Rincon's frequent rain events.

For driveways use crusher run (for base) topped with #57 stone for a durable surface. For walkways, pea gravel is comfortable and attractive on flat, well-contained paths, while 3/8" crushed stone gives a firmer surface. For drainage features and French drains, use washed #57 or similar washed stone to keep water moving and avoid fines that clog drainage.

Material costs are a big portion and vary by stone type, but expect material plus delivery to be a significant portion of the job; Hello Gravel can provide exact material pricing by zip code. Professional installation that includes grading, compacted base, geotextile, and spreading commonly ranges from roughly $2.50 to $6.50 per square foot depending on site prep complexity, access, and local labor rates. For simple DIY installs you mainly pay for materials and rental equipment for grading and compaction.

In Rincon, plan for light maintenance once a year—raking and filling low spots—and a more thorough regrading and adding 1 to 2 inches of fresh stone every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and rainfall. After heavy storms, check for ruts and erosion and repair promptly to prevent larger problems. Regular maintenance reduces the need for full rebuilds and keeps drainage functioning in the humid climate.

Yes. Rincon is in Effingham County and some city areas or homeowners associations may have rules about driveway materials, curb cuts, or appearance standards. Before starting, contact the City of Rincon planning or building department and review any HOA covenants to confirm whether gravel driveways are allowed and whether a permit or driveway approach permit is needed. If in doubt, our team can help point you to local resources during the quote process.

For erosion control use larger, angular rock for armored areas—#2 or #3 crushed stone or riprap-sized stone for steep spots and water channels. Combine a stable sub-base of crusher run, geotextile fabric, and properly sized topstone like #57 to stabilize rural driveways. Also consider drainage features such as culverts, check dams, and grading to divert runoff away from vulnerable sections in Rincon's rainy seasons.

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