Gravel in Toccoa Falls, GA

A typical tri-axle dump truck in the Toccoa Falls area carries about 10–12 cubic yards, which is roughly 14–17 tons of common gravel (density varies by material). Local delivered cost usually depends on material and distance; expect roughly $30–$60 per ton delivered in the West Georgia area, so a full tri-axle load often runs in the $360–$1,020 range. Prices vary by supplier and material type, so get a quote for a firm price.

Typical local prices for basic gravel in and around Toccoa Falls run about $30–$60 per ton (about $42–$84 per cubic yard using 1.4 tons per cubic yard). Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing and often includes free delivery in many areas, but delivery fees or minimums can apply based on zip code, material type, and next-day requests. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and next-day delivery has an extra fee if requested before noon CST.

For a 20 ft x 20 ft area (400 sq ft): 2 inches = ~2.5 cubic yards (about 3.5 tons), 4 inches = ~5.0 cubic yards (about 7.0 tons), and 6 inches = ~7.4 cubic yards (about 10.5 tons). At local rates of $30–$60 per ton, material cost would be roughly $105–$210 for 2 inches, $210–$420 for 4 inches, and $315–$630 for 6 inches, before any delivery or special service fees. Always add a 5–10% overage for compaction and spreading, and note Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons.

Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway in the Toccoa Falls area; it may wash away or rut under vehicle traffic. For a durable driveway, plan on a compacted base of 4–6 inches of crusher-run or similar base material, plus a 2–3 inch top layer of decorative or surface gravel. Proper site prep (grading, compaction, and drainage) is especially important here because of local slopes and seasonal rain.

Crusher-run (also called crush-and-run or bank run in some areas) is typically the most affordable option near Toccoa Falls because it compacts well and is locally available. For a budget driveway, use crusher-run as a compacted base and top-dress with a thinner layer of cheaper driveway gravel; this balances cost with durability. Prices and availability vary regionally, so check product options when you get a quote.

Rounded river gravel can sometimes cost more per ton than crushed stone, and it tends to move under traffic because of its round shape. Crushed stone is usually the better value for driveways in Toccoa Falls because it locks together, compacts, and lasts longer, reducing long-term maintenance costs. Upfront prices may be similar in some cases, but crushed stone generally performs better over time.

Putting gravel directly over soil is not recommended for driveways or frequently used areas; it will sink and wash out over time. Instead, remove topsoil and vegetation, install geotextile fabric if needed, then lay and compact a base layer of crusher-run or crushed stone before adding surface gravel. That means you should order both base material and surface gravel and account for extra volume for compaction when calculating your needs.

A common tri-axle truck used locally carries about 10–12 cubic yards, which is roughly 14–17 tons depending on the material. Hello Gravel accepts orders by ton, cubic yard, or truckload; for small projects order by ton or cubic yard (remember our 3-ton minimum), while larger jobs often make sense to order by truckload to simplify delivery. Use the online calculator or contact our team to convert your project dimensions into the best ordering unit.

Crusher-run and stone dust compact tightly and can form a firm, semi-solid surface that resists movement better than loose gravel, while polymeric or stabilized gravels use binders to lock particles together more like a paved surface. Some suppliers around Toccoa Falls may offer polymeric or stabilized options, but availability varies by region and supplier. If you want a locking surface, ask for stabilized products when requesting a quote and confirm any installation requirements with the supplier.

Gravel driveways require periodic upkeep: regrading, adding 1–2 inches of gravel every few years, and fixing potholes or washouts after heavy rain. Budget for occasional material replenishment and possible labor or machine rental—typical DIY refreshes can cost $100–$500 depending on size, while larger contractor work will cost more. Expect issues with weeds, dust, and potential washouts on slopes in our area, so plan drainage and erosion controls when ordering materials.
