Why Littleton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Littleton is a town of 5,280 residents inside a growing West North Carolina region whose metro area population is 2.3+ million and that posts a 2.80% annual growth rate. The local climate—about 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, 228 sunny days per year, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports year‑round outdoor work but makes good drainage and durable surfacing essential. As neighborhoods expand and homeowners invest in outdoor living, demand increases for materials that stabilize driveways, control erosion, and create low‑maintenance landscape beds. Clear, proportioned aggregate choices help DIYers and small contractors avoid overordering and ensure projects withstand Littleton’s mix of sun and seasonal rain.Popular Projects in Littleton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Littleton gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Littleton.
In Littleton you’ll commonly see 3/4" crushed stone (good for a stable base), crusher run or gravel with fines (binds and compacts well for driveways), pea gravel and river rock (used for walkways and decorative beds), and screenings or stone dust (for leveling and joint fill). Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, color and texture reflect local quarries in West North Carolina, so options may vary by supplier.
Delivered gravel prices in West North Carolina typically range from about $30 to $60 per ton, or roughly $40 to $85 per cubic yard depending on type, haul distance, and supplier. Hello Gravel’s platform has a 3-ton minimum and shows final delivery and material pricing at checkout; exact cost depends on your Littleton zip code, material chosen, and whether you request next-day delivery.
For 100 sq ft, 2" of compacted 3/4" crushed gravel equals about 0.62 cubic yards or roughly 0.8 to 0.9 tons. At 4" depth you’ll need about double that: roughly 1.24 cubic yards or 1.6 to 1.8 tons. These numbers use a common conversion of about 1.3 to 1.4 tons per cubic yard for crushed stone; always round up slightly to allow for clean-up and compaction.
Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and haulers that service Littleton, but specific quarry names vary by zip code. Typical minimums from local suppliers start around 3 tons (Hello Gravel minimum) and can go higher for special materials; delivery fees depend on distance and truck access, and many areas offer free or included delivery on orders above a certain size. Check your zip code on Hello Gravel to see available suppliers, exact minimums, and delivery fees for your address.
Littleton’s soils and humid climate mean heavier summer storms and sometimes clayey soils that hold water, so drainage is critical. For driveways, build a stable base with 6" to 8" of compacted angular crushed stone or crusher run over a geotextile fabric, and crown the driveway or slope it to shed water. A well-compacted base with proper slope reduces rutting and washouts in Littleton’s rainfall patterns.
Permit and HOA rules vary; many small towns and HOAs in the Littleton area require driveway permits for curb cuts, driveway width, setbacks, or stormwater controls. Before ordering gravel, contact Littleton town hall or your county planning department and check your HOA guidelines to confirm any permit, inspection, or material restrictions.
In Littleton’s climate homeowners typically regrade high-traffic areas at least once a year and add new gravel every 1 to 3 years, depending on use and storm exposure. Heavy rainfall, vehicle traffic, or poor drainage can require more frequent topping (often 1/2" to 1" of new material) and occasional regrading to eliminate ruts and restore proper slope.
Asphalt or compacted crushed stone bases with a surface binder perform better than loose gravel for durability and low maintenance; concrete and interlocking pavers are the most durable but cost more upfront. Rough cost comparison: loose gravel might average $0.50 to $2.00 per sq ft installed, asphalt commonly $3 to $6 per sq ft, and pavers $10 to $20+ per sq ft depending on design — local prices vary, so get quotes for Littleton jobs.
Typical equipment includes an excavator or skid steer for grading, dump trucks for delivery, plate compactors or rollers for compaction, and a grader or rake for final shaping. Labor costs vary by scope; small driveway installs often range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars for site prep and compaction, while larger jobs can run higher — ask local contractors in Littleton for itemized quotes and ask if they include compaction and edging.
For low-maintenance, dust-reduced driveways use an angular crushed-stone base (3/4" crushed stone or crusher run) with fines for binding, topped by a 3/4" clean stone or compacted stone dust layer. Consider polymer-stabilized blends or applying a dust suppressant if dust is a major concern, and install edging to keep material contained during heavy rains common in Littleton.

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.
