Gravel: Drainage-Ready For Knotts Island • Choose Your Gravel Delivery Date
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 Knotts Island Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Knotts Island is a small but active community with a city population of 1,740 and links to a larger metro area of 2.3+ million. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually and a moderate climate—228/year sunny days, 34.00 inches annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—local homeowners are increasingly investing in durable, low-maintenance outdoor projects. That steady growth and comfortable climate drive demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, erosion control, and landscape refreshes. Homeowners seek quality gravel to manage runoff, stabilize loose soils, and create clean, usable outdoor spaces that withstand sun exposure and periodic heavy rain without frequent upkeep. Gravel performs well in Knotts Island’s conditions because it improves drainage and resists compaction compared with finer materials. For pathways, driveways, French drains, and backfill, gravel helps channel the 34.00 inches of annual rainfall away from foundations while standing up to 228/year sunny days that can bake softer soils. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers, regional materials that reflect local geology, and scheduled delivery (minimum order 3 tons) so you get the right gravel for your project without the headache of sourcing and hauling it yourself.Popular Projects in Knotts Island This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Knotts Island gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Knotts Island.
Delivered gravel prices in Knotts Island typically fall in the range of about $40 to $85 per ton depending on type (crushed stone, #57, screenings), supplier, and seasonal demand. Remote delivery or specialty materials can push the price higher, and Hello Gravel shows per-ton pricing at checkout after you enter your zip code and preferred material. Minimum orders are usually 3 tons, and final price includes delivery fees that vary by supplier and access to your site.
A standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries 10 to 12 tons, so multiply the per-ton price by the truck load to estimate total cost (for example, 12 tons at $60/ton = $720 plus any delivery surcharge). Keep in mind Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, and some suppliers add travel or site-access fees for remote locations like Knotts Island. For an exact delivered price, enter your address on our site or contact our sales team.
Using a common density estimate (about 1.4 tons per cubic yard), 1 ton of gravel covers roughly 231 sq ft at 1" depth, about 115 sq ft at 2" depth, and about 77 sq ft at 3" depth. These are approximate values—actual coverage varies with gravel type and compaction. If you prefer cubic yards, 1 ton equals about 0.7 cubic yards for typical crushed stone.
Assuming a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide single-car driveway (200 sq ft), you would need roughly 3 tons for a 3" finished depth (200 / 77 ≈ 2.6), so round up to 3 tons to allow for compaction. If you want a thicker base (4"), plan on about 4 tons. Because Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, that often matches this kind of small driveway project.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST with an extra fee. Many areas have free delivery, but Knotts Island’s more remote location may incur additional travel or site-access fees set by the local supplier. Enter your zip code at checkout or contact our team to see exact delivery fees and available dates for your address.
In West North Carolina and the Knotts Island area, most suppliers list common driveway and landscaping gravels by the ton, though some contractors or landscape yards may quote by the cubic yard. Hello Gravel displays per-ton pricing on our site, and we’ll show cubic-yard equivalents when helpful so you can compare. If you need a specific unit, ask Sales and we’ll confirm how your local supplier measures and bills.
For a small residential driveway on Knotts Island, 3/4" crushed stone or #57 crushed stone are common choices because they lock together well and shed water. Price per ton for these standard crushed stones typically ranges from $40 to $75 per ton in the region; specialty materials (washed shell, decorative river rock) cost more. Check product pages on Hello Gravel for photos and local availability since coastal geology can affect material options.
Drivers may be able to perform basic tailgate spreading at their discretion if it can be done safely, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading or compaction services. Some local suppliers or independent contractors offer spreading and compaction for an additional fee; costs vary by crew, scope, and site conditions. If you need spreading and compaction, request it at checkout and we can help you get a contractor estimate or recommend local pros.
Plan to order about 10% extra for compaction and minor waste on flat, straightforward projects and up to 15% for irregular terrain or driveways with slopes. For small driveways or repair patches, rounding up to the next half-ton or to Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum often covers unexpected shortfalls. If your job has significant grading or poor access, consider 15% to 20% extra and check with our team for a tailored recommendation.
Hello Gravel can give a firm quote for materials and delivery once you enter your zip code and material choice on our website, including any supplier delivery fees and available dates. For installation (spreading, grading, compaction), we can connect you with local contractors for separate firm estimates—installation pricing is not included in the material-only quote. Contact our sales team at 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734 for a full materials-and-delivery quote and help finding installers.
Materials are sourced regionally, so texture, color, and particle shape reflect local geology and supplier inventory in the Knotts Island area. Coastal influences and nearby quarries can change the look of gravel from season to season, so product photos are representative but not exact. If color or consistency is important, add preferences in Order Notes and our team will try to match your request or provide alternatives.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
