Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

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.

Why Greensboro Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Greensboro's city population is 274,484, and the broader Greensboro-High Point metro area has a population of 2.3+ million, a growing market that drives steady demand for home and commercial projects. With a growth rate of 2.50% annually and a climate in hardiness zone 8b, local homeowners and contractors work in conditions that support year-round landscaping and construction. The area averages 228 sunny days per year and about 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, so outdoor projects often face both sun exposure and periodic heavy rain. That combination increases the need for dependable aggregates: durable gravel for driveways and paths, well-draining base material for patios, and stabilizing stone for erosion control. Homeowners choose quality gravel to reduce maintenance, improve drainage, and create long-lasting outdoor surfaces that stand up to Greensboro’s seasonal weather. Gravel is especially practical in Greensboro’s mix of clay-influenced soils and moderate rainfall because angular, crushed gravel lets water pass through while resisting compaction. For yards, driveways, and French drains, properly graded gravel helps prevent pooling during the rainy months and limits dust during dry spells. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and professional haulers who source materials reflecting regional geology, let you schedule delivery on a convenient date, and provide clear pricing so your project moves forward without surprises. Our platform simplifies ordering, coordinates delivery with local dump-truck fleets, and helps you get the right gravel for Greensboro’s conditions.Popular Projects in Greensboro This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Greensboro gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Greensboro.
A standard tri-axle dump truck load (roughly 10-14 tons) in the Greensboro area typically costs between $300 and $1,000, depending on gravel type, site access, and delivery fees. Hello Gravel shows exact local pricing at checkout based on your zip code and can confirm any additional fees for tight access or next-day delivery.
For a 1,000 sq ft area the amount depends on depth: at 2" you need about 8-9 tons (roughly 6-7 cubic yards), and at 3" you need about 12-13 tons (around 9-10 cubic yards). Local factors like ground slope and compaction can change quantities, so we recommend using our material calculator or requesting a quote for a site-specific estimate.
In general 1 ton of gravel covers about 100 sq ft at 2" depth or about 70-80 sq ft at 3" depth, though weight and coverage vary by material and moisture. To calculate precisely, convert area and desired depth to cubic yards and multiply by local density; our calculator does this automatically for Greensboro materials.
The most cost-effective route is ordering locally sourced basic gravel like crusher run or bank-run in bulk (minimum order is typically 3 tons with Hello Gravel) to avoid higher per-ton retail prices. Compare suppliers on Hello Gravel, schedule standard delivery (2+ business days) to avoid rush fees, and consider recycled crushed concrete if permitted for your project.
Cost depends on driveway width and depth. For a common 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at a 3" top layer you would need roughly 2.5-3 tons of material; at local prices that typically runs in the low hundreds of dollars including delivery, but request a quote in checkout for a precise cost.
For a driveway 2" of gravel is generally too shallow; we recommend at least 3-4" of compacted gravel for the driving surface with a 4-6" compacted base of crushed stone below for lasting performance. Greensboro's Piedmont soils and occasional heavy rain make a solid base and proper drainage especially important to prevent ruts and washouts.
Tonnage depends on width and depth. For a 100 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3" depth you need about 22-24 tons; at 4" depth that increases to roughly 30-32 tons. Use exact width and desired depth in our calculator or request a personalized estimate to account for local compaction rates.
A 20x20 (400 sq ft) driveway at 3" depth requires about 5-6 tons (around 3.5-4.5 cubic yards); at 4" expect roughly 7-8 tons. Cost in Greensboro varies by material; basic driveway stone typically runs in the low hundreds to mid-hundreds for materials and delivery, so get a precise quote on Hello Gravel for your zip code and desired product.
Crusher run, bank-run, or pit-run gravel are commonly the least expensive options because they are locally sourced and require little processing. They perform well as base material, but you may want a finished layer of 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone for improved drainage and a neater appearance.
A 7x14 dump trailer commonly carries about 4-6 cubic yards of material, which equates to roughly 5-9 tons depending on the gravel type and moisture. Check your trailer's manufacturer payload rating and local road weight limits before loading; if in doubt, order delivery to avoid overweight issues.
A well-built gravel driveway or path in Greensboro can last 10-20 years as a base, but the top layer typically needs topping up every 2-5 years depending on traffic, winter conditions, and runoff. Proper base preparation, drainage, and occasional regrading greatly extend life, especially in areas with heavy rains or clay subsoils common to the Piedmont region.
Five tons of standard crushed stone generally covers about 100 sq ft at 3" depth or about 200 sq ft at 1.5-2" depth; visually it is roughly half a tri-axle dump truck load and about 4-5 pickup truck loads. For deliveries in Greensboro, Hello Gravel can show you exact coverage estimates for the specific gravel you choose.
Recycled crushed concrete is often a less expensive alternative that provides good compaction and drainage for base layers, while crushed stone or decorative mulch might be cheaper for low-traffic areas. Consider local zoning and aesthetic goals; for driveways recycled concrete is practical, but check appearance and any local restrictions before ordering.
For driveways in the Greensboro area a combination of crusher run (for the base) topped with 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone for the wearing surface is common and effective. This mix balances compaction, drainage, and a stable driving surface suitable for the region's soil and rainfall patterns.
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.
