Gravel: Built For Humid Coastal Drainage • Quick Gravel Delivery From Local Suppliers
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 Hampstead Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hampstead's city population is 28,350, and the area is part of a growing regional market that is seeing steady development. With a local annual growth rate of 2.80% annually and a metro area population of 2.3+ million nearby, residential building and landscaping projects are increasingly common. The climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor work but also requires materials that handle both rain and sun. Homeowners choose quality gravel for driveways, walkways, French drains, and erosion control because it provides durable surface coverage, reliable drainage, and low maintenance compared with organic options. Local soil types and sloping yards in Hampstead make angular, well-graded gravel a practical choice for long-term performance and reduced runoff. Gravel works well in Hampstead’s environment because its permeability helps manage the region’s 34.00 inches of annual rainfall while remaining stable under frequent sun exposure (228 sunny days per year). For patios, pathways, and base layers, crushed gravel resists washout better than round rock and compacts to create a solid surface in hardiness zone 8b conditions. Hello Gravel connects homeowners with trusted local suppliers and haulers so you get regionally sourced gravel that reflects local geology, clear pricing, and scheduled delivery—making it easier to pick the right gravel and get materials on-site when you need them.Popular Projects in Hampstead This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hampstead gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hampstead.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10-12 tons of gravel. Delivered prices in Hampstead usually range from roughly $400 to $900 per truckload depending on gravel type, local supplier rates, and whether delivery fees apply. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and pricing can vary by zip code, so get a custom quote for an exact price.
Material needs for 1,000 sq ft depend on depth: about 10 tons at 2", 15 tons at 3", or 20 tons at 4". At ballpark delivered gravel prices of $40-$75 per ton, materials alone would be about $400-$1,500; add delivery (often included in some areas, but variable) and any spreading fees (drivers may spread at their discretion or a contractor may charge $100-$500). For an accurate total, request a quote with your zip code and note if you want spreading at checkout.
A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft, which needs roughly 4 tons at 2", 6 tons at 3", or 8 tons at 4"; Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons. Material-and-delivery costs typically run from about $160 to $600 for DIY installation depending on depth and gravel type, while professional installation (grading, compaction, spreading) can add several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on site prep and contractor rates. Get a detailed quote that includes delivery, any spreading service, and site-prep needs before committing.
In Hampstead's coastal area, 2 inches is generally too shallow for a driveway—it may wash out or rut on sandy soils and low spots. We recommend at least 3-4 inches of compacted surface gravel for light residential driveways, plus a deeper base layer (4-6 inches) of larger crushed stone or base material where drainage or soft soils are an issue. For properties prone to flooding or poor drainage, add geotextile fabric, proper grading, and a thicker base to improve stability.
Use these approximate quantities: for 20x20 (400 sq ft): 4 tons at 2", 6 tons at 3", 8 tons at 4". For 1,000 sq ft: about 10 tons at 2", 15 tons at 3", 20 tons at 4". Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, and local soil conditions may require extra material for proper base build-up.
For projects larger than a few tons, bulk delivery (dump truck) is usually the most cost-effective because per-ton pricing is lower and delivery can be scheduled to your site. Local pick-up can make sense for very small loads or if you have a vehicle that can haul many bags at once; bagged gravel is easiest for tiny projects but is far more expensive per ton. Check Hello Gravel for delivery availability and pricing in your zip code to compare total costs including drive time and labor.
Yes. Coastal areas like Hampstead often have sandy subsoils and higher water tables, so choose materials and installation methods that improve drainage and resist washout—coarser base stone, well-graded topcoat, and geotextile fabric. Raise the driveway profile slightly and ensure adequate cross-slope and drainage outlets to reduce standing water and flood damage. Consult local building or stormwater rules if your property is in a flood-prone zone.
Hello Gravel coordinates dump-truck delivery to Hampstead and you can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but spreading is performed at the driver's discretion for safety and access reasons and is not guaranteed. If the driver can spread, there may be a small additional fee depending on supplier and local policies; full installation by a contractor is separate and will cost more. For exact availability and any spreading fees, enter your zip code and request spreading during checkout or contact our team for help.
Approximately one ton of gravel will cover about 100 sq ft at 2" depth, about 67 sq ft at 3" depth, and about 50 sq ft at 4" depth. These are estimates and can vary by gravel type and compaction; use them for quick planning and order a little extra to account for grading and settling. If in doubt, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our sales team for a site-specific recommendation.
Permit requirements vary by county, local municipality, and HOA; many single-family residential driveways do not require a permit, but you should check Pender County or Hampstead rules and any HOA covenants before starting. Even where permits aren't needed, proper site prep—clearing vegetation, establishing a stable base, installing edge restraints, and addressing drainage—is critical, especially in coastal Hampstead where erosion and runoff can be issues. If you need help assessing site prep or drainage, contact a local contractor or Hello Gravel's sales team for guidance.
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.
