Gravel in Tennille, GA

Delivered prices vary by supplier and haul distance, but typical estimates for Tennille (West Georgia) are: crusher run $22-$38 per ton (about $31-$53 per cubic yard), #57 crushed stone $24-$45 per ton (about $34-$63 per cubic yard), and pea gravel $28-$55 per ton (about $39-$77 per cubic yard). Final price depends on local availability, order size, and delivery fees; use Hello Gravel checkout to get a firm delivered quote for your zip code.

For West Georgia clay and frequent heavy rain, angular crushed stone (#57 or 3/4" crushed) for the surface with a layer of crusher run or stone fines as a compacted base performs best. These materials lock together, shed water better than round pea gravel, and resist rutting when properly installed with good drainage and compaction. Pea gravel is more likely to wash and migrate, so we generally do not recommend it for primary driveways in this area.

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers serving Tennille/Washington County; our minimum order is 3 tons. Standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; delivery charges vary by zip code and may be free in many areas. Tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is done at the driver’s discretion and compaction is usually not provided.

Calculate cubic yards with: (length ft x width ft x depth in) / 324, then convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by about 1.4 (1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons). Example: a 2-car driveway (20 ft x 20 ft) at a 4" depth = (400 x 4)/324 ≈ 4.94 cubic yards, ≈ 6.9 tons, so order about 7 tons (round up to account for compaction and waste).

With proper base, drainage, and occasional grading, a gravel driveway in the Georgia climate can last many years but will need periodic replenishment; plan to add 1-3 inches of new gravel every 2-5 years. Annual maintenance tasks like grading, filling ruts, and adding small amounts of gravel typically cost from about $50 to $400 per year depending on driveway size and damage from storms. Major repairs or regrading after severe erosion will cost more and depend on local contractor rates.

Gravel is the lowest upfront cost and provides good drainage, but needs regular maintenance and topping up. Crushed stone (angular stone with fines) offers better interlock and stability than rounded gravel and is a good middle ground for driveways. Asphalt has higher upfront cost and less frequent maintenance but gives a smoother, low-dust surface; in West Georgia it handles rain well if drainage is addressed, though it costs significantly more to install.

Use geotextile fabric under the gravel to reduce mixing with clay subsoil, install terraces or grade breaks on long slopes, and direct runoff into swales or rock-lined channels. French drains, small retaining walls, and riprap at drainage outlets help control concentrated flow and prevent washouts. Proper slope grading and vegetation around the gravel area reduce erosion during heavy rains.

Permit needs vary: many residential driveways within city limits may be allowed without a building permit, but driveways that connect to county roads or alter drainage may require a driveway permit or review from Washington County public works. If you have an HOA, check covenants for material restrictions before ordering. Contact Washington County or the City of Tennille planning office to confirm requirements for your address.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an added fee. You can select a preferred delivery date during checkout and Hello Gravel will confirm scheduling with the local supplier and hauler. Delivery windows depend on local fleet availability and weather, so book early for weekend or time-sensitive jobs.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and if conditions are safe; request spreading at checkout and note it in the Order Notes. There is no guarantee that spreading or compaction will be provided, and compacting equipment is typically not included. For best results plan to arrange mechanical compaction or a contractor if you need a fully compacted base.

For walking paths use pea gravel or 3/8" crushed stone for a comfortable surface, noting pea gravel can shift and may need edging. For patios under pavers or flagstone use a compactable crushed stone base (crusher run or dense grade aggregate) topped with 3/8" or 1/4" stone dust for stability. For drainage beds and dry creek lines use larger angular rock or washed stone (1" to 3") to resist movement during heavy Georgia rains.

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