Gravel: Rain-Ready Driveway And Drainage • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Scheduling
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 Farmville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Farmville has a population of 7,280 and sits within a growing West North Carolina region whose metro area totals 2.3+ million. The local market is expanding at 2.80% annually, and homeowners here benefit from a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b. That combination of steady growth and variable weather drives demand for practical, low-maintenance surfaces: new driveways, upgraded walkways, erosion control on sloped yards, and drainage fixes. Homeowners often look for aggregates that balance permeability, durability, and curb appeal—qualities that help manage runoff after rainy spells and stand up to regular use between sunny seasons. Gravel is well suited to Farmville’s conditions because it offers permeability for the 34.00 inches of yearly rain while resisting rutting in areas exposed to sun and foot traffic. Choose angular, crushed gravel for driveways and drainage trenches and rounded or pea gravel for patios and decorative paths, knowing color and texture will reflect local geology. Hello Gravel connects you with regional suppliers, offers clear pricing and scheduled delivery (minimum 3 tons), and coordinates local haulers so you get the right gravel for your project on a convenient timeline.Popular Projects in Farmville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Farmville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Farmville.
Gravel costs in the Farmville area vary by type, but expect a rough delivered price range of about $25 to $65 per ton depending on material and quality. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and many local deliveries have no extra delivery fee, though remote drops or small orders can incur a delivery or minimum-fee charge. For an exact price, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team for a local quote.
Local gravel and crushed stone usually come from quarries and landscape supply yards in Pitt County and nearby counties. Instead of listing specific vendors, use Hello Gravel's marketplace by entering your zip code to see vetted local suppliers and get side-by-side pricing and delivery options for bulk loads.
On Farmville's clay-rich soils and frequent summer rain, angular crushed stone like 3/4" crushed stone or #57 works well because it locks together and sheds water, while washed pea gravel is good for drainage areas but can shift on clay. For driveways, a layered approach (compacted base stone, then a wearing layer of 3/4" or #57) helps control rutting and runoff in local conditions.
Central North Carolina has milder freeze-thaw cycles than northern states but heavy rains and wet clay subgrades still cause potholes, rutting, and washouts if the base is inadequate. Proper base preparation, good cross-slope for drainage, and periodic top dressing with fresh gravel are the best ways to extend driveway life in the Farmville area.
Local installation costs depend on scope, but expect grading and base prep plus labor to add roughly $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot on many projects, with complex drainage or excavation increasing costs. Always get multiple local bids and ask contractors to itemize base stone, compaction, and final dressing to compare apples to apples.
Use a rough rule of thumb of 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons. For a 12x40 driveway (480 sq ft), 3" of gravel is about 6 tons and 4" is about 8 tons; if you need a compacted base of 4-6" plan on 8 to 12 tons. For a 20x20 pad (400 sq ft), 3" is about 5 tons and 4" about 8 tons, and a 4-6" base will raise that to roughly 8 to 12 tons.
Town and county rules can vary, so check with the Town of Farmville planning/zoning office and Pitt County for driveway permits, right-of-way setbacks, and stormwater rules before you start. If you live in an HOA, review covenants for surfacing restrictions; when in doubt, contact the local permitting office or your HOA first.
Common stabilization options available in the Farmville market include geotextile fabric (to separate soil and stone), plastic or composite grid systems (for load distribution), and polymer binders. Expect fabric to add roughly $0.20 to $0.50 per sq ft installed, grid systems to add $1 to $3 per sq ft for materials (plus installation), and resin/binder treatments to cost more and require specialist installers.
Crushed concrete is usually less expensive and can compact well, but it often has more fines, can retain more moisture, and may show staining; crushed stone offers cleaner drainage and better interlock. For budget projects crushed concrete performs fine if properly graded and compacted, but for long-term performance on Farmville clay soils crushed stone is often the better choice.
Yes, prices can rise during peak construction season and after heavy storm events due to demand and hauling constraints. To lower costs, order in bulk, schedule deliveries in the off-season or weekdays, compare multiple supplier quotes on Hello Gravel, and ask contractors about volume discounts or combined material-and-install bids.
Contact Hello Gravel customer service as soon as possible by phone or text; we will do our best to accommodate changes before materials are dispatched. If there is a problem with the delivery or material, report it promptly so we can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve the issue under our standard policies.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
