Gravel: Built For 34.00-Inch Annual Rainfall • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Available Locally
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 Hatteras Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hatteras is a small but active community (city population 675) within a broader region (metro area population 2.3+ million) that is seeing steady development. The area’s climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor work but also creates design challenges: intense sun, intermittent heavy rain, and soils that benefit from improved drainage. With a regional growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and local contractors are increasingly updating driveways, stabilizing slopes, and reworking landscape beds. That demand makes quality aggregates essential; homeowners seek dependable materials that prevent erosion, improve runoff management, and reduce long-term maintenance for paths, patios, and foundation perimeter drains.Popular Projects in Hatteras This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hatteras gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hatteras.
Costs vary based on gravel type, distance from the supplier, truck access, and seasonal demand. In Hatteras you may see delivered prices roughly in the range of $50 to $120 per ton depending on material and island access surcharges; for an exact price, check your zip code on Hello Gravel and request a quote since we show transparent delivery and material fees up front.
For driveways we recommend angular crushed stone (for example 3/4" crushed stone with fines) because it compacts and locks together, resisting washout. Crushed shell is popular on the Outer Banks for its look but can break down and wash away more easily; pea gravel is attractive for walkways but tends to roll and migrate in windy, coastal settings.
A common 2-car driveway (about 20 ft wide by 40 ft long) at 4" depth needs roughly 10 cubic yards, which is about 12 to 14 tons (use 1 cu yd ≈ 1.3 tons as a rule of thumb). For a thicker, more durable build (6" depth) plan on about 15 cubic yards or about 19 to 21 tons, and order 5–10% extra to allow for compaction and trimming. Note that Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons, so smaller patch jobs may require a larger delivery or blended planning.
Salt spray itself does not destroy stone but accelerates breakdown of fines and encourages vegetation and corrosion of nearby metal fixtures, while periodic flooding and storm surge can wash gravel away or mix in sand and debris. Expect more frequent regrading and topping after storm seasons, use a stable base and proper edging, and plan for drainage measures to reduce washout.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with regional suppliers and contracted haulers that serve Hatteras and Dare County. Availability and bulk pricing vary by supplier and season, so check your zip code on our site or contact our team to get local quotes and delivery windows.
Some neighborhoods on Hatteras have HOA covenants or local design rules that limit surface materials, colors, or treatments, and certain municipal or county rules may apply if you change drainage or impervious coverage. Before ordering, check Dare County planning and any HOA documents for your address; if in doubt, contact our team and we can help you plan materials that meet common local requirements.
Gravel is typically the lowest upfront cost and allows water infiltration, but it requires regular maintenance (regrading, topping) and is more vulnerable to washout from storms. Asphalt lasts longer with lower routine upkeep but is more expensive to install and can be undermined by flooding; pavers are durable and attractive but costly and can shift with ground movement. Crushed shell offers a local aesthetic but usually needs more frequent replenishing and is more prone to compaction and washout on exposed lots.
Plan to regrade and redistribute the surface after heavy storms and at least once a year for routine upkeep; add a thin topcoat (1–2 inches) every 2–5 years depending on traffic and storm exposure. After hurricanes or nor'easters you may need immediate spot repairs or additional material to restore grade and drainage.
Permeable gravel with an engineered base and geotextile layer can improve infiltration and reduce runoff for routine rain events, which helps with local drainage. However, permeable surfaces do not prevent damage from tidal flooding or storm surge; on flood-prone lots you should combine permeable surfacing with elevation, proper grading, and local drainage plans.
Yes. Summer tourism increases demand on the Outer Banks and can tighten truck availability, while hurricane season and winter storms can disrupt supply lines and close NC-12, delaying deliveries. To avoid delays and seasonal surcharges, schedule materials early, choose a delivery window in checkout, and contact our team if you have a time-sensitive project.
Deliveries to Hatteras are typically made by contracted dump trucks (often tri-axle) and Hello Gravel offers scheduled delivery dates with standard 2+ business days lead time or next-day service (for orders placed before noon CST) when available. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion—request it at checkout but understand it is not guaranteed; also factor in access limitations on narrow or sandy driveways when placing your order.
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.
