Gravel: Reliable Drainage For Rainy Seasons • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Across Townsend
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Townsend Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Townsend is a small but growing community of 5,090 residents located within a larger West Georgia metro of 2.3+ million. With a steady growth rate of 2.10% annually, local demand for residential upgrades, driveways, and yard improvements is increasing. Townsend's climate—228 sunny days and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in Hardiness Zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor work but also creates occasional wet-season drainage challenges. Homeowners in the area frequently look for dependable aggregates to stabilize driveways, create low-maintenance landscaping, and improve drainage around foundations. In this context, quality gravel is a go-to material because it balances affordability, durability, and easy installation for both small DIY projects and larger contractor jobs.Popular Projects in Townsend This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Townsend gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Townsend.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect roughly $30 to $60 per ton delivered in West Georgia. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order, so request a local quote for exact pricing and delivery fees for Townsend, GA (population 5,090).
Suppliers in West Georgia typically offer crushed stone, screened gravel, and bank-run or crusher-run mixes. Appearance and sizing reflect local quarries, so color and texture may vary regionally; ask for a product spec or photo when ordering.
When people say 'GA stone' they usually mean aggregate quarried in Georgia rather than a single product. Common local aggregates include granite- and gneiss-based crushed stone in many parts of the state, but exact composition depends on the supplier serving Townsend.
Tonnage depends on driveway width and depth. As an example, a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth is about 11.1 cubic yards, which equals roughly 15 to 17 tons of gravel; increase the depth to 4 inches for heavier use and add 20% for compaction and waste.
Two inches is too thin for a driveway that will see regular vehicle traffic. Aim for at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted finish gravel over a proper subbase, and more for heavy trucks or poor drainage areas common in parts of West Georgia.
You can, but it is not ideal—Townsend soils often include clay that can hold water and lead to rutting. For best results, grade and compact the soil, add a geotextile fabric to separate soil from stone, and install a compacted base layer before the top gravel.
Generally, bank-run or crusher-run mixes and unprocessed local screenings are among the least expensive options. Prices vary by supplier and availability, so check Hello Gravel for local options and get a quote that includes delivery and minimum-order costs.
Crushed stone often costs a bit more because it is mechanically processed and screened to size, while natural gravel (river or bank-run) can be cheaper if it's locally abundant. Regional availability around Townsend will strongly affect which option is less expensive.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 tons of gravel. Multiply the per-ton price by the truck load and add any delivery fee; as a ballpark, a full truck might cost roughly $400 to $900 in the West Georgia area depending on material type and current market rates.
Cost depends on width and depth, but as an example a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth needs about 2.6 tons of gravel. With Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum and typical local pricing, expect a starting cost in the low hundreds—get a local quote for exact pricing and delivery.
'3/4"' refers to the maximum particle size (about three-quarter inch), while 'G1' is a grading designation used in some regions and mixes. If you need specific performance (drainage, compaction), ask suppliers for the product gradation and use-case rather than relying on the name alone.
Measure area and desired depth, use Hello Gravel's material calculator, and remember the 3-ton minimum. Request photos or sample descriptions from local suppliers, schedule delivery for a dry day if possible, and note that tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
