Gravel: Drainage Built For Wet Summers • 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 Oxford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Oxford has a population of 20,920 and sits inside a growing West North Carolina region with a metro population of 2.3+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.80%. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b, local homeowners see steady demand for landscaping, driveway improvements, drainage solutions, and small-scale construction. That steady growth and comfortable climate mean more yards are being regraded, paths are being replaced, and properties need better stormwater management. For many projects, gravel is the go-to aggregate: it controls erosion, creates stable bases for hardscapes, and provides reliable drainage where local soils tend to hold water after heavy rains.Popular Projects in Oxford This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Oxford gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Oxford.
Typical delivered prices for a single dump truck load of gravel in Oxford, NC vary by material, truck size, and services requested. For a standard tri-axle load (roughly 10-12 tons) expect a ballpark range of about $400 to $900 for material plus delivery; tailgate spreading is sometimes available but is not guaranteed and may add a fee or be declined by the driver. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and provides exact pricing at checkout based on your zip code and selected options. Contact our team for a firm quote and to request spreading at checkout.
To cover 1,000 sq ft you need roughly 3.1 cubic yards (about 4.3 tons) at 1 inch, 6.2 cubic yards (about 8.6 tons) at 2 inches, and 9.3 cubic yards (about 13.0 tons) at 3 inches. Using typical delivered price ranges in the Oxford area of about $45 to $80 per ton, material-plus-delivery estimates are roughly $190 to $350 for 1 inch, $390 to $690 for 2 inches, and $585 to $1,040 for 3 inches. Prices vary with gravel type, regional supply, and additional services like spreading or long-drive fees, so request a quote for an exact total.
Assuming about 1.4 tons per cubic yard, one ton of gravel (about 0.71 cubic yards) will cover roughly 230 sq ft at 1 inch, 116 sq ft at 2 inches, and 77 sq ft at 3 inches. Coverage can vary with stone size, compaction, and how level the base is, so these are practical estimates for planning. For driveways plan on slightly more material to allow for compaction and grading.
For driveways, gravel is generally more cost-effective than sand because it requires less material depth for structure and provides better drainage in Oxford's humid climate. For patios, sand is usually required as a bedding layer under pavers but gravel (crushed stone) is typically the preferred base material beneath the sand; using gravel for the base and sand for bedding gives the best balance of cost and performance. Compare total system costs (base gravel + bedding sand + labor) and get local contractor quotes to see which option fits your budget and project type.
Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days, with a next-day delivery option for orders placed before noon CST for an added fee. Extra fees that may apply include next-day or expedited delivery charges, long-drive or remote delivery fees, residential or tight-access surcharges, and possible spreading fees if requested at checkout. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed; always check your order confirmation for any applied fees.
Many local suppliers and independent contractors in West North Carolina do offer on-site estimates, delivery plus spreading, installation, and compaction, but those services are separate from Hello Gravel's material delivery. Costs for installation and compaction depend on job size, access, equipment, and local labor rates and can add several hundred to several thousand dollars for large jobs; light spreading by the driver may be free or low-cost but is not guaranteed. For a firm price, get written bids from local installers and ask suppliers whether they can coordinate crews for a combined material-and-installation estimate.
Order at least a few days ahead of your planned project because regional demand, weather, and local supplier schedules can affect availability in Oxford (population 20,920). Specify color or texture preferences in Order Notes, plan for the 3-ton minimum, request spreading at checkout if desired, and add 5-10% extra material for compaction and waste. If you need installation or compaction, ask for contractor referrals and get written quotes so you know which costs are included before delivery.
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.
