For West Tennessee clay soils we typically recommend crushed limestone or crusher-run (stone with fines) because they compact well and resist washout. Use #57 or 3/4" crushed stone for a wearing surface and consider a layer of larger stone or geotextile underneath to improve drainage and reduce rutting.

A 20x40 driveway is 800 square feet. For a 3" surface you need about 10 to 11 tons; for a 4" surface plan on about 14 tons. Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons, so most driveways will need multiple tons—use our material calculator or contact us for an exact quote.

Yes. Hello Gravel works with a network of local suppliers and haulers that serve the West Tennessee area and can arrange delivery to Eads. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion—request it at checkout and the driver will assess safety and access on arrival.

Gravel driveways perform well here but require periodic maintenance because of heavy rain, summer heat, and occasional freeze-thaw cycles. Expect routine maintenance like regrading and adding material every 2 to 7 years; small repairs or material top-ups commonly run from about $100 to several hundred dollars depending on size and access.

Gravel is the lowest upfront cost option (roughly $1 to $3 per sq ft installed) and offers good drainage, but it requires more frequent maintenance. Asphalt (about $3 to $6 per sq ft) gives a smoother, lower-maintenance surface for several years, and concrete (about $6 to $12 per sq ft) is the most durable but also the most expensive. Consider your budget, maintenance tolerance, and local drainage needs when choosing.

Permit and HOA rules vary. Eads is in Shelby County, so check Shelby County zoning and any neighborhood HOA covenants before installation; many residential gravel driveways do not require a county permit, but HOAs often require approval. Hello Gravel can arrange material and delivery, but you or your contractor should confirm permits and HOA approval before ordering.

For farm lanes use a more robust aggregate such as 1- to 2-inch crushed stone or recycled concrete (2" minus) with a compacted base and good crown for drainage. Install 4 to 8 inches of material depending on traffic and subgrade, add geotextile to reduce mixing with clay, and plan for culverts where water concentrates.

Hello Gravel can source bulk decorative options like pea gravel, river rock, and colored limestone from local suppliers serving the Eads area. Decorative materials typically range from about $40 to $120 per ton depending on type and color; ask for samples or photos when you request a quote to confirm the look before ordering.
