Why Black Creek Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Black Creek is a small but active community with a city population of 858, located in a region seeing steady development. The surrounding metro area supports a population of 2.3+ million and has an annual growth rate of 2.80% annually, which drives local construction and landscaping demand. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners here need materials that handle occasional heavy rain, warm summers, and mild winters. That mix of climate and steady growth means reliable aggregates are in demand for driveways, drainage systems, garden beds, and erosion control—projects where quality gravel prevents water pooling, reduces maintenance, and supports new construction and renovations.Popular Projects in Black Creek This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Black Creek gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Black Creek.
Expect delivered gravel prices near Black Creek to commonly fall in the range of about $35 to $70 per ton for standard materials like crush-and-run or #57, depending on material type, distance from the pit, and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and typically schedules standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. For an exact delivered price, enter your zip code on our site to get a local quote.
In West North Carolina around Black Creek you’ll often find #57 crushed stone, 3/4" crushed stone, crush-and-run (crusher run), pea gravel, and river rock, with color and texture reflecting local geology. Regional sourcing means exact sizes and colors vary, so check product descriptions and add color notes at checkout if you have a preference.
Use this rule of thumb: tons = area (sq ft) × depth (inches) ÷ 231. For example, 100 sq ft needs about 0.87 ton at 2", 1.30 tons at 3", 1.73 tons at 4", and 2.60 tons at 6"—adjust for compaction and driveway use when ordering.
Black Creek’s humid climate and seasonal freeze-thaw events can cause rutting, washouts, and migration of fines after heavy rains. Proper base preparation, compaction, adequate crowning, and good drainage are essential to minimize damage and maintenance from wet weather and occasional freezes.
Materials delivered to Black Creek are typically sourced from regional pits in Wilson County and neighboring counties, so availability and cost vary by pit inventory and trucking distance. Hello Gravel provides local supplier options with transparent pricing when you enter your zip code—request a quote to see exact availability and lead times for your area.
On slopes, use angular crushed stone rather than smooth pea gravel, install a geotextile or geogrid for stabilization, and add sturdy edging or terraces to prevent migration. Also design surface drainage to channel water away from the slope and compact in layers to reduce future movement.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost but higher routine maintenance and more frequent top-ups, making total lifecycle costs variable depending on use. Asphalt is moderate in upfront cost with lower maintenance than gravel, while concrete has the highest initial cost and the longest service life; local rainfall, freeze-thaw exposure, and traffic levels in the Black Creek area will influence which option is most economical over time.
Permit and HOA rules vary by location; some town or county regulations and neighborhood associations in Wilson County may have limits on driveway materials, setbacks, or drainage requirements. Before installing, check with the Town of Black Creek, Wilson County planning or building departments, and any HOA to confirm rules and whether a permit is required.
Yes—permeable geotextile fabric helps reduce mixing of subsoil and gravel in humid climates and can slow rutting, while rigid edging (metal, timber, or stone) keeps material contained. Keep in mind fabric improves performance but does not replace proper base preparation, compaction, and drainage design.
Pea gravel tends to migrate and usually needs topping or redistribution every 1 to 3 years in driveway use, especially after heavy rain. Angular crushed stone and #57 compact well and commonly last 5 to 15 years before significant replenishment, with routine annual maintenance (raking, grading, and occasional top-up) extending service life.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
