A typical tri-axle dump truck used in our area carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards, which is roughly 14 to 20 tons of gravel depending on the material.

A 10-yard load weighs roughly 14 tons (using about 1.4 tons per cubic yard) and will cover about 1,620 square feet at 2 inches deep. Coverage drops as you increase depth: at 3 inches it covers about 1,080 square feet and at 4 inches about 810 square feet. Prices depend on material and delivery, so check our checkout for delivered pricing.

One ton of typical crushed gravel in our region is roughly 0.7 cubic yards and will cover about 110 to 120 square feet at a 2-inch depth. At 3 inches one ton covers roughly 75 to 80 square feet, and at 4 inches about 55 to 60 square feet. These are approximate; actual coverage varies with stone size and compaction.

A tri-axle truck with 10 cubic yards will cover about 1,620 sq ft at 2 inches, while a 12-cubic-yard load covers about 1,944 sq ft at 2 inches. For driveways you usually want 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel, so divide your driveway area by the coverage per load at the chosen depth to determine how many truckloads you need. If you need help, use our material calculator or request an estimate for your Clinton address.

Cost depends on width and depth; for example a 200 ft by 10 ft driveway (2,000 sq ft) at 3 inches depth requires about 12.3 cubic yards (roughly 17 tons). Using a typical delivered price range for common gravel in the area ($20 to $40 per ton), material cost would be about $340 to $680, plus delivery and optional spreading fees.

For a long-lasting driveway in Clinton's climate, 2 inches is generally too thin — it can shift, rut, and expose underlying soil. We recommend at least 3 inches for light residential use and 4 inches or more with a compacted base for vehicles or heavier use. If you're unsure, our team can recommend depth based on expected traffic and local soil conditions.

Buying in bulk and choosing a common, locally-sourced material (like bankrun or crusher-run) tends to be most economical, and having it delivered by dump truck is usually cheaper than buying bags. Compare local suppliers through Hello Gravel to see negotiated rates and combine orders to meet our 3-ton minimum. Avoid small retail bags if you need more than a few yards, and request delivery windows to reduce re-delivery fees.

Materials like bankrun, crusher run, or dense graded aggregate are often the most budget-friendly because they are common and require less processing. Decorative gravels, colored stone, and pea gravel usually cost more. Prices vary regionally in West Tennessee, so check local listings on Hello Gravel for exact material pricing in Clinton.

A standard wheelbarrow holds about 3 cubic feet, so one cubic yard (27 cubic feet) is roughly 9 wheelbarrow loads. If your wheelbarrow is larger (4 to 6 cubic feet), expect about 5 to 7 loads per cubic yard. Using a truck delivery will save many trips and time for most projects.

We do not recommend placing gravel directly over grass because the sod will decompose, cause uneven settling, and encourage weed growth. Best practice is to remove the grass, lay a geotextile weed barrier if desired, and compact a base before adding gravel. For small, temporary projects you can add a thin layer, but expect more maintenance and potential sinking.

A 7x14 dump trailer can carry anywhere from about 4 to 7 cubic yards depending on the side height and how full you load it. Low sides and legal road limits reduce capacity, while taller sides increase it but may exceed road safety limits. If you need a specific trailer calculation, measure the internal box height and multiply length by width by height, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards.

A well-built gravel driveway or surface in our region can last many years with periodic maintenance like grading and top dressing; surfaces commonly need refreshing every 3 to 7 years depending on traffic and weather. The structural base, if properly installed, can last decades. Local freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rains in West Tennessee may increase maintenance needs compared with drier areas.

Assuming a 40 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway (400 sq ft), at 3 inches depth you'd need about 3.7 cubic yards of gravel, which is roughly 5 to 6 tons. Rounding up to allow for compaction and spread, order about 4 to 5 cubic yards. Use our material calculator or enter your Clinton zip code to get an exact recommendation and delivery options.
