Gravel: Rain-Ready Drainage For Mount Holly • Next-Day Gravel Delivery When Available
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 Mount Holly Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mount Holly is home to 22,630 residents and sits within a growing regional economy that is part of a larger metro area of 2.3+ million people. With a steady growth rate of 2.80% annually, local building and landscaping activity is rising—from driveway repairs and new home pads to garden upgrades and small commercial projects. The town's moderate climate (34.00 inches of annual rainfall, 228 sunny days per year, hardiness zone 8b) means homeowners face both wet-season drainage needs and year-round outdoor use. That combination makes quality aggregates like gravel essential: they provide permeable surfacing for driveways and paths, stable bases for pavers and patios, and effective erosion control on slopes. Homeowners in Mount Holly look for reliable, locally sourced gravel that balances appearance, drainage performance, and longevity.Popular Projects in Mount Holly This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mount Holly gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mount Holly.
Yes. Gravel works well in Mount Holly for driveways, walkways, and drainage projects because the area’s clay-prone soils and seasonal rains benefit from improved surface drainage. It is low-maintenance, cost-effective, and pairs well with local landscaping styles, but proper base preparation and edge restraints are important to prevent shifting.
You can order gravel through Hello Gravel, which connects you to local suppliers in the Mount Holly/Charlotte area and arranges delivery by dump truck. We source regionally so material reflects local quarries; check your zip code on our site to see available products and pricing.
Use the rule: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324. For example, a single-car driveway 10 ft x 20 ft at a 3-4 inch compacted depth needs about 2 to 3 cubic yards, while a two-car 20 ft x 20 ft driveway at 4 inches needs about 5 cubic yards. Our material calculator can give a precise amount based on your exact dimensions.
Prices vary by material and local supply, but expect a typical range of roughly $30 to $70 per cubic yard depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, crusher run) and availability. Hello Gravel shows upfront pricing for your zip code, notes a 3-ton minimum order, and may include free delivery in many areas—check the checkout for final cost.
For a durable driveway in Mount Holly, a compactable base like crusher run (mixed stone and fines) or 3/4" crushed stone as a base with a top layer of #57 or crushed stone works well. Those mixes compact and resist frost heave better than loose round stones; add edging to keep material in place and consider local clay conditions when choosing depth and compaction.
Yes, gravel can be used for paths and decorative mulch, and it helps drainage in rain-prone Mount Holly. If you are improving planting soil, a common guideline for potted or alpine mixes is roughly 70% soil to 30% coarse material to improve drainage; for in-ground beds keep good topsoil for plant roots and use gravel primarily as a surface layer 1 to 2 inches thick.
Permitting depends on the scope and location of the work. Routine residential gravel pads and private driveway surfacing often do not need a permit, but driveway connections to public streets, curb cuts, stormwater changes, or HOA rules might require approval—check Town of Mount Holly and Gaston County permitting before you order large loads.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; availability depends on zip code. Hello Gravel schedules delivery with local dump-truck haulers, has a 3-ton minimum, and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion—confirm access, drop location, and any spreading requests when you order.
Materials are regionally sourced, so color, texture, and stone composition reflect local geology around Mount Holly and the greater Charlotte area. Natural variation is normal; you can add color preferences in Order Notes and contact our team for photos of current stock before purchase if appearance is important.
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.
