A cubic yard of typical gravel in George Town generally costs more than a single ton because most gravels weigh about 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard; that often translates to roughly $45 to $85 per cubic yard depending on material and supplier. Prices vary by stone type and delivery, so check Hello Gravel for precise per-yard pricing. Remember to factor in the minimum 3-ton order requirement.

Whether one ton fits depends on your truck's payload rating; many half-ton pickup trucks cannot safely carry a full ton in the bed once passengers and tools are added. If you plan to move close to a ton, verify your truck's payload limit first or choose dump truck delivery through Hello Gravel to avoid overloading. Our deliveries use professional trucks and avoid the hassle and safety risk of overloading consumer pickups.

Buying in bulk and having it delivered by dump truck is usually the most cost-effective option per ton in George Town, since retail bagged gravel is significantly more expensive. Choosing common local materials like crushed limestone or pit run typically keeps costs down versus decorative river rock. Use Hello Gravel to compare local supplier quotes and delivery options to get the best overall price.

Coverage depends on the truck size and desired depth. A typical tri-axle dump truck delivers about 7 to 10 cubic yards (roughly 10 to 14 tons) which will cover about 1,100 to 1,600 sq ft at a 2" depth or about 350 to 500 sq ft at a 6" depth. Exact truck capacity and coverage will vary by supplier, so confirm the cubic yards on your Hello Gravel order.

No, 2 inches is generally too thin for a driveway and is best reserved for walkways or a light top dressing over an existing stable base. For a residential driveway in George Town you should plan on 4 to 6 inches of compacted gravel over a prepared subgrade for better durability, especially where local soils and freeze-thaw can affect drainage. If you need help choosing thickness for your site, contact our team for guidance.

Costs depend on width, depth, and material. For a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at 4" depth you will need roughly 15 cubic yards of material; at a rough material price of $50 per cubic yard, materials alone are about $750, plus delivery and any spreading/compaction fees. Total installed costs in George Town commonly range from about $1,000 to $2,500 depending on site access, material choice, and whether you add base preparation or machine spreading.

A typical tri-axle delivery in our network carries approximately 10 to 14 tons of material, though actual weight depends on the stone type (crushed stone weighs more per cubic yard than mulch or topsoil). Suppliers will list the cubic yards and estimated tonnage on your Hello Gravel order so you know what to expect. If you need an exact weight for engineering or permitting, ask the supplier for a weigh ticket.

Yes, you can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading only at their discretion based on safety and site conditions. Hello Gravel recommends requesting the service in the Order Notes and preparing the site (clear access and mark areas) to improve the chance the driver can help. We do not guarantee spreading—plan for a contractor or rent equipment if you need guaranteed spreading and compaction.

Local suppliers serving George Town typically offer crushed limestone, pea gravel, river rock, and stone screenings; availability reflects West Kentucky geology and nearby quarries or river sources. Use crushed limestone or crusher-run for driveways and base layers, pea gravel or river rock for decorative beds and drainage, and screenings for a compacted finish. If you are unsure which type suits your project, our team can recommend materials based on planned use and local conditions.

Use this simple formula: cubic yards = (length in ft × width in ft × depth in inches) ÷ 324. For example, a 10 ft by 20 ft area at 4" depth needs about (10×20×4)÷324 = 2.47 cubic yards. You can also use the Hello Gravel material calculator or contact our team—remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so plan accordingly for small projects.
