Why Mount Gilead Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mount Gilead (city population: 5,410) sits in a small but growing community within a broader metro region (metro area population: 2.3+ million) that is seeing steady development. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and local contractors are increasingly tackling driveways, drainage upgrades, and low-maintenance landscaping projects. The local climate — about 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a plant hardiness zone of 8b — creates a need for durable, well-draining materials. Homeowners seek quality aggregates because the right gravel grade improves water management, reduces rutting on driveways, and provides a stable base for patios and walkways while reflecting local color and texture from regionally sourced rock. Gravel works well in Mount Gilead’s mix of sun and rain because its permeability helps move stormwater away from foundations and reduces pooling after heavy showers. For pathways, driveways, and French drains, locally sourced gravel offers the right balance of drainage and stability while matching the area’s natural geology. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and professional haulers, provides clear pricing and delivery scheduling, and helps homeowners order the correct material for their project — all while acknowledging regional variation in color and texture and offering delivery options to fit your timeline.Popular Projects in Mount Gilead This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mount Gilead gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mount Gilead.
Hello Gravel connects you with local Montgomery County and Central North Carolina suppliers and haulers that deliver to Mount Gilead. Many local quarries and aggregate yards serve a delivery radius of roughly 20-50 miles depending on truck availability; Hello Gravel sources regionally and will show available suppliers and exact delivery details when you enter your zip code.
For Mount Gilead's climate and soils, a layered approach works well: a compacted base of crusher run (contains fines) and a top layer of 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone for durability and drainage. Pea gravel and angular decorative stone are good for patios and flower beds but are not ideal as a driveway base because they can shift more easily.
Prices vary by material and season, but expect a general range: common crushed stone or crusher run about $12-$40 per ton (roughly $15-$45 per cubic yard), decorative or specialty gravels $30-$75 per ton. Pricing fluctuates with local supply and fuel costs, so check Hello Gravel for live quotes to get the exact per-ton or per-yard price for your zip code.
A 12'x50' driveway covers 600 square feet. For a typical top layer of 3" you need about 5.6 cubic yards (~7.8 tons); for a 4" top layer about 7.4 cubic yards (~10.4 tons). If you are building a full 6" compacted base plus 3" top, plan roughly 12-14 cubic yards (~17-20 tons); always order 5-10% extra to allow for compaction and grading.
Most small residential deliveries and standard driveway resurfacing do not require a permit, but work that changes driveway access, alters stormwater flow, impacts a public right-of-way, or disturbs regulated streams/wetlands may need county approval. Contact Montgomery County Planning and Zoning or the town of Mount Gilead to confirm permit requirements before large stockpiles or major installation work.
Mount Gilead is served by regional quarries and independent aggregate yards in Montgomery and neighboring counties; some suppliers offer delivery only while local contractors provide grading and installation. Hello Gravel will list suppliers that serve your exact zip code and note whether they offer installation or contractor referrals—if you need installation, ask for local contractors when you place the order.
Standard delivery takes 2+ business days; next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons; weekend deliveries may be possible but are limited and should be requested at checkout—confirm availability when you schedule your delivery.
Yes. Mount Gilead's rainfall and occasional freeze-thaw cycles mean you should avoid installing gravel during heavy rain or immediately before freeze-thaw periods to prevent settling and washouts. Plan grading, compaction, and major installations in drier months and include proper drainage (swales, geotextile, edging) to extend life and reduce maintenance.
Some local suppliers and independent contractors offer grading, compaction, and edging services but availability varies; Hello Gravel primarily arranges delivery and can often recommend local contractors. Ballpark labor costs for a small driveway prep and compaction job in the area frequently range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on site access, scope, and equipment—get local estimates for accurate pricing.
Yes. Projects near streams, wetlands, or steep slopes in Montgomery County may be subject to state and local sediment and erosion control rules and buffer requirements. Before placing large stockpiles or installing gravel close to water, contact Montgomery County planning or the NC Department of Environmental Quality to confirm any permits or erosion-control measures you must follow.
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.
