Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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 Seventy-First Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Seventy-First is a growing community of about 39,000 residents positioned within a region that is expanding steadily (0.69% annually). Its moderate climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228/year sunny days and 33.90 inches of annual rainfall—supports year-round outdoor projects and steady construction activity. As the broader metro area serves roughly 2.4+ million people, demand for home upgrades, drainage fixes, and low-maintenance landscaping is rising. Homeowners in Seventy-First look for quality aggregates because local soil types and seasonal rain patterns make proper drainage and durable surfacing essential; the right gravel reduces erosion, improves driveway longevity, and creates reliable base layers for patios, pathways, and garden beds. Gravel is well suited to Seventy-First’s mix of sun and rain: angular crushed gravel sheds water while compacting into a stable surface that stands up to periodic downpours and hot, sunny stretches. For local projects, gravel provides quick drainage, low maintenance, and a natural look that blends with regional soils. Hello Gravel connects Seventy-First homeowners to trusted local suppliers and haulers, offers transparent pricing, and schedules deliveries so you get the right material for your site without the hassle of coordinating multiple vendors.Popular Projects in Seventy-First This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Seventy-First gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Seventy-First.
Delivered gravel in the Seventy-First/Fayetteville area commonly ranges from about $25 to $55 per ton depending on material type (crushed stone vs pea gravel), local quarry pricing, and delivery distance. Decorative or specialty gravels tend to be at the higher end, while bulk crushed base stone is usually toward the lower end. Hello Gravel shows transparent delivered pricing during checkout and has a 3-ton minimum order in most areas.
Hello Gravel works with a network of local suppliers and regional quarries that serve Cumberland County and the Fayetteville area. Large regional producers such as Vulcan Materials and Martin Marietta often supply aggregates in this part of North Carolina, along with smaller independent local quarries; contact our team or check your zip code to see which specific suppliers deliver to your address.
For Seventy-First's humid subtropical climate and clay-heavy soils, start with a compactable base like 21A or crusher run (dense grade aggregate) and finish with 57 stone or a 3/4"-1" crushed stone for stability. 57 stone locks together well and sheds water, while pea gravel drains but can shift and is less stable for vehicle traffic. In clay areas use a geotextile or geogrid and proper base depth to prevent rutting and poor drainage.
Here are rough tonnage estimates using common depths (rounded): 10x20 driveway (200 sq ft) needs about 1.7 tons at 2", 2.6 tons at 3", 3.5 tons at 4", and 5.2 tons at 6". 12x30 driveway (360 sq ft) needs about 3.1 tons at 2", 4.7 tons at 3", 6.2 tons at 4", and 9.3 tons at 6". A 100 sq ft patio needs about 0.9 tons at 2", 1.3 tons at 3", 1.7 tons at 4", and 2.6 tons at 6"; note Hello Gravel's minimum order is usually 3 tons, so small projects often require ordering at least that amount.
Well-graded crushed stone mixes with angular particles and a compactable base (crusher run or DGA) perform best in heavy rain and poor drainage because they lock together and shed water. Loose rounded gravels like plain pea gravel or river rock are more likely to wash or migrate during storms. Combining a stabilized sub-base, edging, slope/crown, and proper drainage features (swales, French drains) will significantly reduce erosion.
Labor and equipment costs for installing a gravel driveway in the Fayetteville/Seventy-First area typically range from about $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot, depending on site prep needs, grading, and drainage work. A simple regrade and fresh gravel laydown on an existing surface will be at the low end, while excavation, base construction, and drainage add to the cost. Always get several local contractor quotes and factor in material delivery from Hello Gravel when budgeting.
Many property owners in Seventy-First should check both Cumberland County permitting rules and any HOA covenants before changing driveway surfacing. HOAs commonly have standards on material type, color, and curb appeal that may require approval, and the county may require permits if work affects stormwater, curb cuts, or right-of-way. Contact your HOA and Cumberland County planning or permitting office before starting work to avoid fines or rework.
For weed control, remove large weeds by hand, apply a pre-emergent herbicide in spring, and use a non-residual contact weed killer on problem spots; landscape fabric helps but can trap water if not installed with proper drainage. Regrade and add 1 to 2 inches of fresh gravel every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic and storms, and use edging (timber, stone, or pavers) to keep material contained. After heavy rains, rake and fill low spots and consider adding more base stone where rutting occurs.
Gravel is the most affordable up-front option and provides excellent drainage, but it requires more frequent maintenance and usually lasts 5 to 15 years with upkeep. Asphalt costs more initially, gives a smoother surface, and lasts 15 to 25 years with periodic sealing, but it needs solid base and proper drainage to avoid failures on clay soils. Concrete is the most expensive up front and lasts longest, but it has the poorest natural drainage unless designed with permeable options and may crack on poorly draining clay without proper base preparation.
On clay or sandy soils in Seventy-First, install a geotextile fabric or geogrid, then place 4 to 6 inches of compactable crushed stone or dense grade aggregate in 2- to 3-inch lifts, compacting each lift with a plate compactor or roller. Finish with 2 to 3 inches of your chosen surface gravel (57 stone or pea gravel) and establish a slight crown to shed water. For very poor soils consider a thicker base, additional drainage, or professional soil stabilization.
Order at least the 3-ton minimum and select your preferred delivery date in checkout; standard delivery is 2+ business days with a next-day option if you order before noon CST and pay the surcharge. Deliveries arrive by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle) so include clear placement notes and photos at checkout for best placement, and request tailgate spreading if you want the driver to consider it (subject to their discretion).
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
