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.
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 Lake Toxaway Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lake Toxaway has a population of 62,710 and sits in a growing region with a 2.80% annual growth rate. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of rainfall annually, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round outdoor projects while still creating seasonal drainage and erosion challenges. As new driveways, patios, and landscape improvements appear, homeowners and contractors need dependable aggregates that perform in wet-weather runoff and prolonged sun exposure. Gravel is commonly chosen here because it improves surface drainage, provides a stable driving and walking surface, and reduces maintenance on sloped lots. Because regional geology affects color and texture, buyers value consistent supplier-grade material, accurate quantity estimates, and reliable delivery to keep projects on schedule and costs under control.Popular Projects in Lake Toxaway This Season

Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lake Toxaway.
Hello Gravel works with a network of vetted local suppliers and haulers that serve Lake Toxaway and the greater western North Carolina region. Enter your zip code on our site to see avaIlable suppliers and get exact pricing and avaIlability for bulk gravel deliveries to your pRoperty.
For driveways, 3/4" crushed stone or 1-1.5" graded crushed rock gives good compaction and traction. For lakeside beaches and swimming areas, wAshed pea gravel or coarse, wAshed sand is best to minimize fine sediments; for docks use 1/2" to 1" wAshed stone to allow drainage. For erosion control, use larger angular rip-rap (2" to 6" or larger) or engineered stone specified by an erosion control professional rather than fine gravel.
Permitting depends on the scope and location of the work: driveway regrading or new driveway entrances often require Transylvania County land‑use or driveway permits, while any work seaward of the normal shore or that disturbs wetlands or buffers may need sTate or county approvals. Before placing gravel on a shoreline, contact Transylvania County Planning and Zoning and the NC Department of Environmental Quality to confirm permit needs and any buffer or stormwater requirements.
Access varies around Lake Toxaway; many shore parcels are privately owned and some roadways are gated or narrow. Verify pRoperty access, HOA rules, and right-of-way before scheduling delivery because steep, single-lane, or gated roads may require smaller trucks, additional offloading equipment, or extra staging fees.
Lake Toxaway is a mountain lake with historical modifications to its shoreline and dam structures, so shoreline slopes and substrate can vary significantly. That variability affects grading and material choice, so for any shoreline work get a site assessment from a civil engineer or shoreline specialist to specify appropriate gravel gradation and slope treatments.
Yes — for beaches and swim areas use wAshed gravel or sand to reduce fines that cause turbidity and cloud the water. Also use erosion controls like silt fencing during installation and avoid putting fine, dusty material directly into the lake to protect water quality.
There can be environmental restrictions such as stream buffers, wetland protections, and seasonal work windows for in‑water work or habitat protections. Check with Transylvania County, NCDEQ, and local lake associations before scheduling shoreline or in‑water projects to confirm any protected species or seasonal limitations.
Hello Gravel can connect you with local contractors and haulers experienced with mountain and lakefront pRoperties, but we do not endorse individual contractors by name. Typical lead times vary with season: plan 1 to 4 weeks in spring and fall and longer in busy summer months; request references, insurance documentation, and site photos when vetting installers.
Ballpark pricing in western North Carolina commonly ranges from about $30 to $70 per ton for common crushed gravel, depending on type and local supply; specialty wAshed or decorative gravels can cost more. Delivery fees depend on distance and access—many areas have free delivery or modest fees, while steep, gated, or remote sites can add $50 to several hundred dollars; get a zip‑code quote for exact pricing.
Hello Gravel can handle delivery and coordinate with local installers, but installation is arranged through partner contractors rather than performed directly by Hello Gravel. As a rough example, a short lakeside driveway might need 20 to 40 tons of crushed stone (material $600 to $2,800) plus delivery ($0 to $400) and installation ($500 to $2,000), so a typical turnkey budget could fall in the $1,100 to $5,200 range depending on access, material choice, and site prep; request a site quote for an accurate estimate.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
