Gravel in Delrio, TN

In Delrio and the surrounding West Tennessee area, delivered gravel typically ranges from about $25 to $60 per ton depending on type (river rock, crushed stone, pea gravel), distance from the quarry, and season. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and shows exact pricing for your zip code at checkout, including delivery fees and available next-day options if needed.

Delrio is in West Tennessee rather than inside the Great Smoky Mountains, so gravel supplied here usually reflects local West Tennessee geology. That means you’re more likely to get materials sourced from nearby pits and riverbeds rather than high-elevation mountain rock, which affects color, roundness, and suitability for certain uses.

"4-inch river gravel" refers to rounded river rock with pieces up to about 4 inches across. It is best for heavy drainage areas, dry creek beds, erosion control, and decorative landscape accents where large, rounded stone is desired rather than a compactable surface.

Suppliers serving Delrio generally source material from local quarries and nearby river deposits within West Tennessee to keep delivery costs down. Because Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers, you can see region-specific options and add color or size notes at checkout to request what best matches your project.

One ton of gravel covers roughly 116 square feet at a 2-inch depth based on a typical local density (about 1.4 tons per cubic yard). Coverage changes with gravel type and compaction, so use this as an estimate and check our material calculator or contact our team for a precise number.

No, 2 inches is generally too thin for a driveway. For a durable driveway in Delrio’s climate, plan on a compacted base of 4-6 inches of crushed stone plus a 2-3 inch top layer of gravel, or a single compacted 3-4 inch layer for light-use driveways; heavier traffic needs thicker, well-compacted base layers.

A 3-inch layer of gravel will suppress many weeds but won’t completely prevent deep-rooted or persistent weeds. For better long-term control in Delrio, install a permeable weed barrier, keep the gravel at 3-4 inches, and do periodic maintenance like spot weeding or herbicide treatment as needed.

Four cubic yards of gravel will cover about 648 square feet at a 2-inch depth, about 432 square feet at 3 inches, and about 324 square feet at 4 inches. These are approximate figures—actual coverage depends on material type and how much it compacts.

Costs vary with width, depth, and material. For a 20 ft by 50 ft driveway (1,000 sq ft) with a 3-inch compacted top layer you’d need roughly 9–10 cubic yards (about 13–14 tons). At $25–$60 per ton delivered, material costs would be roughly $325–$840 plus any base preparation, compaction, and delivery fees; get a zip-code quote on Hello Gravel for an exact price.

West Tennessee’s rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles can cause rutting or washout if gravel layers are too thin or poorly compacted. Proper base preparation, good drainage, and adequate depth (especially on driveways) will reduce maintenance needs and help gravel hold up through wet seasons.

For walkways and paths use 2-3 inches of compactable gravel over a well-prepared subbase; for patios with pavers use 3-4 inches of crushed stone base plus bedding sand. For drainage trenches or French drains use larger drain rock (1/2"–2" depending on design) and ensure at least 4 inches of free-draining material for effective flow.

Materials in Delrio reflect local geology, so color, roundness, and hardness will vary—river rock tends to be rounded and decorative, while crushed stone is angular and compacts well.

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.
