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 North Wilkesboro Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
North Wilkesboro homeowners are working in a market shaped by steady growth and a comfortable climate. With a city population of 26,360 and a broader metro area population of 2.3+ million, demand for home improvement and small-scale construction projects is rising alongside an annual growth rate of 2.80%. The area averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rain annually, and sits in hardiness zone 8b—conditions that favor outdoor projects year-round but require materials that handle both sun and occasional heavy rain. That combination makes durable, well-draining aggregates especially important for driveways, patios, walkways, and drainage work. Homeowners choose quality gravel to prevent erosion, improve drainage, and create low-maintenance surfaces that stand up to seasonal weather swings and neighborhood development trends.Popular Projects in North Wilkesboro This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - North Wilkesboro gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in North Wilkesboro.
Expect a range rather than a fixed price: delivered gravel in North Wilkesboro commonly runs about $30 to $55 per ton, or roughly $40 to $75 per cubic yard depending on type and local supply. Prices vary by gravel grade, delivery distance, and seasonal demand, so get a quote for the exact material and truck access at your address.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local quarries and landscape suppliers that deliver to North Wilkesboro; minimum orders commonly Start at 3 tons. Trucking fees depend on haul distance, site access, and truck type—some orders qualify for free delivery in nearby areas while remote or tight-access drop-offs may incur extra charges, so request a full quote at checkout.
For driveways and farm lanes, a compactable base like crusher run (mixed fines) topped with 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone performs well for traction and compaction on hilly West North Carolina terrain. For erosion control and drainage use larger clean stone (1" to 3") or rip-rap in steep or high-flow areas; always consider slope, runoff paths, and local rainfall when choosing size and layering.
North Wilkesboro experiences moderate freeze–thaw and periodic heavy rain, which can cause settling, potholes, and fines to wash out if drainage or base is insufficient. Good practices—proper crowning, edge restraint, adequate base material, and routine regrading after storms—greatly extend service life and reduce major repairs.
A 12x40 driveway at 4 inches deep requires about 5.9 cubic yards of material, which is roughly 8.3 tons using a common conversion of 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons for gravel. Order 10% to 15% extra to account for compaction, settling, and waste, and confirm the supplier’s cubic yard-to-ton conversion when you get a quote.
Many suppliers around North Wilkesboro quote gravel by the ton, though some will provide both ton and cubic yard pricing on request. Because stone density varies, ask the supplier which unit they use and their specific conversion so your quantity and price estimate are accurate.
Installation and compaction costs vary by site prep, access, and scope; expect labor and machine work to commonly run between about $10 and $30 per ton or roughly $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for a standard residential driveway when base preparation is minimal. Extensive grading, drainage work, or difficult access will raise the price, so get written estimates from local contractors for a precise cost.
Yes, rules can apply: Wilkes County or NCDOT may require permits for new driveways connecting to public roads, and individual HOAs can set surfacing, drainage, or setback standards. Check with Wilkes County Planning and your HOA before ordering to ensure compliance and to avoid rework.
Yes. Spring and summer are high-demand seasons for landscaping and road work, which can push prices up and lengthen delivery lead times, while winter weather or heavy rain events can temporarily limit certain quarry operations. To avoid delays and price spikes, plan ahead and lock in delivery dates when possible.
Gravel generally has the lowest upfront cost and is easiest to install and maintain, but it requires periodic grading and topping. Crushed concrete offers similar performance to gravel as a recycled base material and can be cost-effective, while asphalt has higher upfront costs but provides a smoother, lower-maintenance surface long-term; choose based on budget, traffic, and drainage needs.
Many local contractors offer removal and recycling of existing driveway material, sometimes reusing crushed or screened material as a base to save cost. Disposal or hauling fees vary by contractor and disposal site; ask for line-item pricing in quotes and whether they can reuse the material on-site to reduce hauling costs.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
