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.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Connelly Springs Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Connelly Springs (population 9,600) sits within a growing regional market—part of a metro area with population 2.3+ million—and is seeing steady development as the area expands at a growth rate of 2.80% annually. The local climate, with 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and hardiness zone 8b, supports both year-round outdoor projects and a need for durable site materials. Homeowners and small contractors in Connelly Springs are increasingly tackling driveway repairs, drainage upgrades, and landscape refreshes; those jobs call for reliable aggregates that drain well, lock together under traffic, and resist washout during heavy rains. Because local geology affects color and texture, picking the right gravel for appearance and performance matters more here than in drier or flatter regions.Popular Projects in Connelly Springs This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Connelly Springs gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Connelly Springs.
Delivered gravel prices in Connelly Springs commonly vary by material and truck access. Expect a rough range of about $25 to $60 per ton delivered for common gravels, with higher prices for decorative river rock or smaller specialty materials; final price depends on local supplier rates, material type, and delivery distance. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and can provide an exact quote for your zip code and delivery location.
Suppliers around Burke County commonly offer pea gravel, #57 crushed stone, crusher run (also called drive stone), and river rock. Pea gravel is smooth and decorative, #57 is angular and packs well for driveways, crusher run is a mix with fines that compacts into a firm base, and river rock is rounded and best for accents or drainage features. Regional sourcing means sizes and colors can vary, so request photos or samples if appearance matters.
A typical two-car driveway in this area is often around 20 ft wide by 40 ft long (about 800 sq ft). For a 2-3 inch top surface you will need roughly 10 to 12 tons; for a full rebuild with a 6-inch compacted base plus a 2-3 inch surface you should plan on about 25 to 30 tons. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team with your exact dimensions for a precise estimate.
Many yards in Connelly Springs sit on clay/loam soils that hold water and slow drainage, and the region gets enough seasonal rainfall to test driveways. Poorly draining soils increase rutting and washouts unless you use proper base preparation, geotextile fabric, and positive grading or drainage swales. For best results, install a compacted crushed-stone base and ensure runoff is directed away from the driveway.
Connelly Springs town rules generally allow gravel driveways, but HOA covenants can be stricter and may limit materials, colors, or edging. Before ordering, check with your HOA and the town or Burke County planning office to confirm any surface, setback, or aesthetic requirements. If you need help, our team can advise on common local practices but cannot override HOA or municipal rules.
For traction and better performance on snow and ice, angular crushed stone like #57 or 3/4-inch crushed stone is preferred because it locks together and resists slipping. Avoid smooth, round pea gravel for driveways in winter, as it can shift and roll underfoot and tires. In icy conditions, combine a rough-aggregate top layer with proper plowing technique and use sand or grit rather than salt near vegetation.
With good base preparation and routine maintenance, a gravel driveway in the Connelly Springs area can function well for 10 to 20 years before a major rebuild is needed. Annual upkeep usually includes grading, filling potholes, and adding a few tons of gravel—many homeowners spend the equivalent of a few hundred dollars per year on material and occasional equipment rental. Exact costs depend on driveway size, traffic, and local material prices; get a quote for a tailored estimate.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost, provides good drainage in rainy seasons, and is easy to repair, but it needs regular upkeep. Asphalt gives a smooth, low-maintenance surface but has higher installation cost and can crack over freeze-thaw cycles common in West North Carolina unless properly installed. Pavers are the most expensive upfront but offer long-term durability and curb appeal; choose based on budget, desired look, and how much maintenance you want to do.
Hello Gravel’s standard delivery window is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Same-day delivery depends on supplier and truck availability in the Connelly Springs and Morganton area and is not guaranteed; contact our sales team with your zip code and timeline and we will check local availability and options. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons for most deliveries.
For heavy vehicles or RVs we recommend a structural base of 8 to 12 inches of compacted crusher-run or similar dense base material with geotextile fabric underneath to prevent subgrade migration, plus a 2 to 3 inch wearing layer of 3/4-inch crushed stone. If you expect very heavy or frequent loading, increase the base to 12 inches or more and ensure proper compaction in 3- to 4-inch lifts. If you’re unsure, ask a local contractor or Hello Gravel for a site-specific recommendation.
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.
