Gravel For Rain-Friendly Yard Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In South Shore
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - South Shore gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in South Shore.
Prices vary by stone type and local supply, but in Kentucky a delivered ton of common gravel typically ranges from about $20 to $60 per ton. In South Shore (West Kentucky), expect prices toward the middle of that range because of regional sourcing and small-town logistics; request a quote on our site for a precise local price. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and shows upfront pricing and delivery options during checkout.
Crusher run (also called dense graded aggregate) or bank-run gravel is usually the most cost-effective choice for pathways because it compacts well and provides a stable walking surface. Decorative options like pea gravel look nice but are often more expensive and can migrate without edging. Check local availability since material names and costs vary by region in West Kentucky.
Most pickup trucks can carry the volume of about 0.6 to 0.8 cubic yards in the bed, which sometimes equals about one ton in volume, but the limiting factor is payload capacity. One ton (2,000 lb) will exceed or come close to the legal payload for many half-ton trucks, so it is not recommended unless you know your truck's payload rating. For curbside convenience and to meet our minimums, Hello Gravel delivers by dump truck (minimum 3 tons).
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
