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 Sugar Mountain Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sugar Mountain sits in a growing region with a city population of 198,600 and a metro area population of 2.3+ million, and local development has followed that steady expansion. With a growth rate of 2.80% annually, homeowners and small contractors are frequently updating driveways, patios, and drainage systems. The climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches, and planting conditions in hardiness zone 8b—means projects must balance sun exposure with periodic heavy rains. That combination drives demand for reliable aggregates that handle runoff, control erosion, and create durable, low-maintenance surfaces. Homeowners in Sugar Mountain look for materials that perform well over seasons, resist washout, and complement local soils and plantings, which is why quality gravel is a common choice for landscaping and site work.Popular Projects in Sugar Mountain This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sugar Mountain gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Sugar Mountain.
A single tri-axle dump truck load (roughly 10-14 tons, depending on truck and material) for Sugar Mountain typically runs in a broad range because of material type and haul distance. As a ballpark, expect delivered costs from about $400 to $1,200 per load; steeper remote deliveries, specialty stone, or short-notice requests push the higher end. Final price depends on the exact material, your driveway access, and whether delivery requires extra time or truck maneuvering on steep mountain roads.
A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft. At 2" depth you need about 2.5 cubic yards (roughly 3.5 tons); at 4" about 5 cubic yards (roughly 7 tons). Material plus delivery for Sugar Mountain can range from a few hundred dollars for DIY 2" coverage to $1,000 or more for 4" with contractor installation; installation (grading, spreading, compaction) typically adds labor costs, so get a local quote to confirm.
Cost depends on width and depth; for example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway is 200 sq ft. At 3" depth that is about 3.7 cubic yards (roughly 5 tons). Expect total supply and install costs in West North Carolina to vary widely by contractor and site prep, commonly between $300 and $900 for small jobs, with steeper slopes or extra prep raising the price.
For 1,000 sq ft, you need about 6.2 cubic yards at 2" (about 8.7 tons) and 12.3 cubic yards at 4" (about 17.2 tons). Material and delivery alone can range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars; including professional prep and compaction, expect total installed costs commonly in the $1,200 to $4,000 range depending on depth, access, and site work required. Contact us for an itemized local quote since mountain delivery and slope work can add meaningful cost.
Two inches is generally too thin for mountain conditions with freeze-thaw cycles and steeper grades. We recommend a compacted base of 4" to 8" of crushed stone or dense grade aggregate plus a 1" to 2" wearing layer for long-term performance, and geotextile fabric or drainage improvements where water and slope are concerns. Thicker, well-compacted bases reduce washout and rutting in snowy, wet, or freezing conditions.
The most cost-effective approach is to order in bulk (minimum 3 tons) from a local supplier to reduce per-ton freight, handle simple spreading and compaction yourself if accessible, and avoid specialty finishes unless needed. For sloped or freeze-prone sites, invest in proper base prep and drainage up front to avoid higher repair costs later. Use our material calculator and request delivery windows to minimize truck staging charges.
One ton of typical gravel covers roughly 116 sq ft at 2" depth and about 58 sq ft at 4" depth (assuming 1 cubic yard is about 1.4 tons). Use those numbers to estimate order size for your Sugar Mountain property, but round up for compaction, settlement, and spreading losses. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is by dump truck, so ordering full loads often works out cheaper.
A thorough quote should list material type and quantity, delivery charges (including truck type and access considerations), site preparation (excavation, grading, removal of old material), base materials and depth, compaction and finishing, and any drainage or fabric work. In West North Carolina quotes may also note additional costs for steep-site hauling, permit needs, or winter-season scheduling. Ask for an itemized quote so you can compare material versus labor costs.
Yes. For freeze-thaw and steep slopes, a thicker compacted base (4" to 8" or more), a layer of angular crushed stone for drainage, and geotextile fabric are commonly recommended to prevent heaving and erosion. These measures increase material and labor costs—expect a noticeable premium for additional stone, compaction time, and any drainage work, often adding 25% or more to a simple surface-only job depending on slope severity and access.
Minimum orders start at 3 tons. Standard delivery lead time is generally 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Mountain deliveries to Sugar Mountain can require extra scheduling time because of limited access, weather, or trucking availability, so check your zip code and request dates early.
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.
