Prices vary by material and supplier, but in the Yorkshire area a delivered load of common driveway gravel typically runs about $35 to $55 per ton. A single tri-axle dump often carries roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards (about 13 to 16 tons), so expect a full truckload to cost several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on material and delivery.

In North Carolina, most residential gravels are commonly in the $35 to $55 per ton range, which is about $45 to $70 per cubic yard (1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons).

One ton of gravel is roughly 0.77 cubic yard and will cover about 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth or about 80 to 85 square feet at a 3-inch depth. Coverage varies with rock size and how much it settles, so round up slightly when ordering for Yorkshire projects to allow for compaction and sloping.

A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards (roughly 13 to 16 tons), which will cover about 1,200 to 1,500 square feet at 2 inches or 800 to 1,000 square feet at 3 inches. For example, a 12-foot-wide driveway would get about 100 to 125 linear feet at 2 inches from one truck, or about 65 to 85 linear feet at 3 inches, depending on material and packing.

Costs depend on width and depth; for a typical 12-foot-wide driveway at 3 inches deep you need about 29 tons of gravel. At $35 to $55 per ton that material cost would be roughly $1,015 to $1,595, plus any delivery fees, spreading or compaction labor, and local taxes.

Measure length, width, and desired depth in feet, multiply length × width × depth (in feet) to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards and multiply by 1.3 to estimate tons. Example: a 200 ft × 12 ft × 0.25 ft (3 inches) driveway is 600 cubic feet → 22.2 cubic yards → about 29 tons.

For most Yorkshire driveways, a crushed stone base (like 2-inch crushed or #411) topped with a surface stone (like 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57) gives good stability and drainage. Local clay soils and seasonal rainfall in North Carolina make properly graded, well-draining stone important, so talk to our sales team about options and color preferences for your area. Contractors often recommend a compacted base and a 2 to 3-inch wearing layer for residential drives.

Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with local suppliers and typically requires 2 or more business days for standard delivery; next-day delivery may be available with an additional fee if ordered before noon CST. Deliveries arrive by dump truck (often tri-axle) and drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; we recommend noting placement preferences in the Order Notes and confirming access details for the site. Materials reflect local geology, so color and texture can vary by supplier.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site conditions. For full spreading and compaction, plan to hire a local contractor or ask your supplier about optional spreading services when you place your order.

Gravel is a natural, regionally sourced material, so color, texture, and particle mix will reflect local geology around Yorkshire and can differ from stock photos. If color or texture is important, add notes to your order, request a sample if available, or contact customer service to discuss local material options before delivery.
