Frequently Asked Questions - Rocky Point gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rocky Point.
Material prices in the Rocky Point area usually fall in the range of about $25 to $50 per ton for common crushed gravel, depending on stone size and local supply. Delivery fees vary by distance, haul size, and truck type; many orders in our network include free or low-cost delivery, but expect extra charges for small orders, long hauls, or next-day service. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and shows transparent pricing at checkout so you can see material and delivery costs before you buy.
In Rocky Point's humid subtropical climate with frequent rain, angular crushed stone (for example 3/4" crushed stone or 57 stone) and crusher run as a base are good choices because they interlock and resist rutting. Avoid very fine, sandy mixes on high-slope or heavy-rain sites because fines can wash out; consider topping with a coarser surface layer like 3/8"-3/4" decorative stone for appearance. Add edging and proper drainage to keep gravel in place during downpours.
Materials delivered to Rocky Point are typically sourced regionally from quarries and aggregate yards in southeastern North Carolina, including the Wilmington and surrounding areas, so color and texture reflect local geology. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers that deliver into Pender County; check your zip code on our site to see available materials and exact suppliers for your address.
A 12 by 50 foot driveway at 4 inches deep requires about 7.4 cubic yards of material, which is roughly 10.5 tons using a typical conversion of 1 cubic yard = 1.4 tons for compacted gravel. We recommend ordering a little extra to allow for compaction and settling, so plan on ordering about 11 to 12 tons. Hello Gravel's calculator on the site can give you the exact amount for the specific product you choose.
Yes—gravel performs well in humid subtropical climates when installed correctly with good base, slope, and drainage, because it allows water to infiltrate instead of pooling. Heavy rainfall and runoff in the Rocky Point area can cause washout or migration of fines, so use angular crushed stone, proper edging, and consider geotextile fabric to stabilize the base. Regular maintenance after major storms helps keep the surface even and functional.
Gravel is the least expensive up-front option, often around $1 to $3 per square foot installed, but it needs periodic replenishing and grading. Asphalt costs more initially (roughly $4 to $8 per square foot) and requires resurfacing every 10-20 years, while pavers are the most expensive ($10+ per square foot) but offer a long-lasting, low-maintenance surface. For Rocky Point homeowners, gravel is a cost-effective choice if you accept occasional maintenance and good drainage design to handle rain.
Permit and HOA requirements vary widely; Rocky Point properties fall under Pender County jurisdiction, and some neighborhoods or HOAs may restrict gravel surfaces or require design approval. Before ordering, check with Pender County zoning or your HOA covenants to confirm any restrictions or permit needs. If you need help, Hello Gravel's team can point you to local contacts to confirm rules for your address.
In Rocky Point, expect light-use gravel driveways to need top-ups every 1 to 3 years and heavier-use driveways to need attention annually or sooner after storm events. Lifespan depends on factors like traffic level, slope, runoff, the stone type and size, and whether a solid base and edging were installed. Proper initial installation and routine raking/spot-filling reduce how often you need major replenishment.
Start with excavation and install a 4" to 6" compacted crushed-stone base (crusher run) over a level subgrade, and use a geotextile fabric where drainage or soft soil is a concern. Add edge restraints to contain the material, crown the driveway slightly for runoff, and finish with a coarser surface layer for wear resistance; compact each layer. These steps help prevent rutting and washout in Rocky Point's rainy conditions.
Standard delivery lead time through Hello Gravel is generally 2 or more business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; actual lead times depend on supplier and local hauler availability. The minimum order across our platform is 3 tons, and many local truck types (tri-axle) deliver larger loads, so we'll show the best delivery options and timing during checkout. If you need help scheduling, call or text our team and we will assist with timing and placement instructions.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
