Gravel: Drainage Built For Local Climate • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Support
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 East Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
East Lake has a city population of 3,425 and is part of a growing regional market tied to a metro area of 2.3+ million. With an annual growth rate of 2.80% and a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and hardiness zone 8b—local homeowners are seeing steady demand for residential upgrades and outdoor projects. That steady growth and comfortable weather mean more driveways, pathways, patios, and drainage work, so homeowners need reliable, well-graded aggregates. Quality gravel helps manage runoff, reduce maintenance, and create stable surfaces that last through sun and seasonal rain. Gravel is an excellent match for East Lake conditions: it improves drainage in areas that receive 34.00 inches of rain annually, resists washout under frequent sun, and performs well in zone 8b plantings. For driveways, walkways, French drains, and mulch-free beds, properly sized gravel provides permeability and stability without trapping moisture against foundations. Hello Gravel simplifies sourcing by connecting you with local suppliers who understand regional geology, offering clear pricing, scheduled dump-truck delivery, and tools to calculate the tons you need so your project stays on time and on budget.Popular Projects in East Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - East Lake gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Lake.
A typical tri-axle dump truck in West North Carolina carries about 10 to 12 tons of gravel. Delivered cost depends on grade, distance, and supplier; expect a rough range of $300 to $1,000 per truckload as an estimate. For an exact delivered price to East Lake, request a quote with your zip code and preferred material on Hello Gravel.
For a 1,000 sq ft area at 2 inches deep you need about 6.2 cubic yards (roughly 8.6 tons). Material delivered typically runs in the ballpark of $35 to $75 per cubic yard, so materials may be about $215 to $465; delivery is often included locally but can add a fee for long hauls or next-day service. Installation (spreading and compaction) varies by site complexity but commonly adds several hundred to a few thousand dollars, so request an itemized quote from Hello Gravel and local installers for a precise total.
Prices vary by grade and local supply, but common delivered ranges in the West North Carolina area are roughly $35 to $75 per cubic yard for typical crushed stone, crusher-run, or pea gravel. Specialty or colored gravels and long-haul deliveries can cost more, so use our online quote tool or contact our team for exact per-yard pricing to East Lake.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order, which reflects typical supplier minimums in the region. Many suppliers offer free delivery for local short hauls, but fees can apply for long-distance deliveries, narrow access sites, next-day requests, or tailgate spreading services; any fees are shown at checkout or on the quote.
Spreading and compacting prices depend on access, site prep, depth, and equipment needed; typical labor rates range from about $0.50 to $2.50 per square foot. For a 1,000 sq ft driveway that could equal roughly $500 to $2,500 in labor in addition to material costs, with difficult sites or heavy grading costing more. Ask Hello Gravel to add tailgate spreading notes and consult local contractors for compaction and base preparation quotes.
Standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Weekend deliveries and specific arrival windows depend on local suppliers and haulers, so request your preferred date during checkout and confirm availability with Hello Gravel.
Yes, many local suppliers offer volume or contract pricing for multiple truckloads, especially for repeated jobs or large projects. Hello Gravel can check with our supplier network and provide tiered pricing on multi-load orders when you request a quote for East Lake.
For driveways in East Lake, a durable option is 3/4" crushed stone or a crushed gravel base compacted to 3 to 4 inches for light traffic, while heavier use may need a thicker base. For walkways, 3/8" pea gravel or decomposed granite at 1 to 2 inches often works well. Material costs vary by grade (expect roughly $35 to $75 per cubic yard delivered) and installation differs by method, so get a project-specific quote from Hello Gravel and local contractors to compare final costs.
Yes, HOA covenants and city regulations can restrict surface materials, colors, or changes to driveways and front yards, and work in the public right-of-way may require permits. Before ordering, check your HOA rules and contact East Lake city planning or public works to confirm any permit or drainage requirements. If you need help, Hello Gravel can note regulatory concerns on your order and recommend contacting local authorities.
Yes, Hello Gravel provides itemized quotes that break down material quantities, delivered cost, and optional services like tailgate spreading. Use our online calculator and request a quote with your exact square footage, desired depth, and zip code, or contact the team for a custom estimate including installation recommendations for 500, 1,000, or 2,000 sq ft projects.
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.
