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 Icard Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Icard (city population 1,608) sits inside a growing West North Carolina region that is part of a larger metro area of 2.3+ million, and homeowners here are seeing steady demand for reliable landscaping and hardscape materials as development continues at a 2.80% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, local yards face a mix of sun, periodic heavy rain, and seasonal freeze–thaw cycles. That combination drives demand for durable, well-draining aggregates that reduce erosion, stabilize driveways, and provide low-maintenance surfaces. Homeowners in Icard choose quality gravel to control runoff, prevent mud around structures, and support pathways and parking pads that stand up to local weather and soil conditions.Popular Projects in Icard This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Icard gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Icard.
A full tri-axle dump truck delivered to a small town like Icard often carries about 10-12 cubic yards (roughly 12-18 tons depending on the material). Delivered prices in West North Carolina commonly range roughly from $300 to $1,000 per truckload depending on gravel type, local quarry distance, and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum; for a precise delivered price for your zip code, request a quote through our site or call our team.
Total cost depends on driveway width, depth, site access, and prep work. As an example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway with a 4-inch compacted gravel base needs about 2.5 cubic yards (about 3.5 tons) of material; material plus delivery alone could be in the low hundreds of dollars, while full installation including grading, base, and compaction by a contractor often runs from several hundred to a few thousand dollars. For an accurate total, get itemized quotes from local suppliers and contractors that include site prep and hauling.
Two inches is usually only suitable as a light top-dress over an already well-compacted driveway. For a new residential driveway in West North Carolina you should plan on at least 4 inches of compacted base gravel, and 6 inches or more if you expect heavier vehicles or poor subgrade. Local contractors often recommend a compacted base layer (crusher run or similar) topped with 1-2 inches of wearing stone.
Use this simple formula: (length in ft x width in ft x depth in ft) / 27 = cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to estimate tons (regional materials vary in weight). Suppliers and Hello Gravel can also estimate for you—provide the exact length, width, and desired compacted depth to get a delivery estimate tailored to local material density.
Contractors in West North Carolina typically use a compactable base like crusher run or 3/4" minus for the base (good for compaction), with a 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone as the wearing surface. Typical delivered price ranges vary by region and material: common estimates are roughly $30 to $80 per ton or $40 to $100 per cubic yard delivered, but actual prices depend on quarry distance and availability. Ask Hello Gravel for local material pictures and exact pricing for your zip code.
Hello Gravel’s platform generally requires a 3-ton minimum order, and many local suppliers use minimums and may add fees for remote or hard-to-access locations. Rural driveways, long-distance hauls, steep driveways, or locations requiring special equipment can incur additional charges—ask for those details when you request a quote. We’ll flag potential extra fees during checkout when they apply.
For top-dressing, material needs are modest: 2 inches over 1,000 sq ft is about 6.2 cubic yards (roughly 8.6 tons). Material-plus-delivery for that amount often costs a few hundred dollars; contractor labor to spread and compact can add several hundred more depending on access and time. For a precise job cost, get a local estimate that lists material, delivery, and spreading separately.
Yes, many local contractors offer bundled quotes that include clearing, grading, base installation, compaction, and final surfacing. Prices vary by scope—simple resurfacing might be a few dollars per square foot, while full new-driveway installs with subgrade work can range higher; exact ranges depend on site difficulty, drainage needs, and material choices. Ask contractors for itemized bids and check references before hiring.
Yes, seasonal demand and quarry schedules affect price and lead times—spring and fall are busy landscaping seasons and can have longer waits and higher prices. Heavy rain seasons or winter freeze-thaw cycles can also slow deliveries or change what materials are recommended for durability. When you need gravel quickly, use Hello Gravel’s next-day option (availability and cutoff times apply) or request an estimated delivery window at checkout.
Permit and HOA rules vary by county and by neighborhood; Icard residents should check Burke County and their HOA (if one applies) before installing a driveway. Many contractors are familiar with local permitting requirements and can help with paperwork or advise you on setbacks, curb cuts, and drainage concerns. If you’re unsure, contact Hello Gravel’s sales team and we can point you to local resources or recommend contractors familiar with the area.
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.
