Gravel in Jasper, TN

Delivered gravel prices in Jasper generally vary by material and supplier; expect roughly $30 to $70 per ton depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, washed gravel) and quality. Because 1 cubic yard of gravel weighs about 1.3–1.5 tons, that works out to roughly $40 to $105 per cubic yard. Final cost can vary with delivery distance, truck access, and seasonal demand, so check our quote tool or contact our team for an exact price.

A 20x40 driveway is 800 square feet. At 2u0022 depth you need about 4.9 cubic yards (roughly 7 tons), and at 4u0022 you need about 9.9 cubic yards (roughly 14 tons). We recommend ordering 5–10% extra for compaction and grading, and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order.

Two inches is usually only enough for a temporary surface or a well-prepared base used occasionally. For a regular-use residential driveway in Jasper, we recommend 3–4 inches of top dressing over a stable, compacted base to resist rutting and erosion. If you have poor drainage or heavier vehicles, increase depth or build a thicker base layer.

For sloped sites use angular, crushed stone (eg 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57) for stability and drainage, with coarser stone at the bottom and finer dressing on top. A common approach is 4–6 inches of compacted base (larger stone) plus 2–3 inches of top dressing; add geotextile fabric for very steep or soft spots. Also install edge restraints and proper slope grading to direct water away from the driveway and prevent washout.

Yes, local suppliers typically deliver to Jasper; Hello Gravel works with regional partners to serve West Tennessee. Our platform has a 3-ton minimum order; many areas qualify for free delivery but fees may apply for long hauls, tight access, or small orders. During checkout you can see exact delivery fees and schedule options for your zip code.

Most dump trucks used for bulk gravel deliveries need about 12 feet of clear width and around 14 feet of vertical clearance to safely access a driveway. They also need a firm, level surface to drive on—soft or steep driveways may require a smaller truck or street dumping, which can incur extra fees. Add delivery notes at checkout or contact our team with photos if access looks tight.

A quick guide: 1 cubic yard (27 cu ft) covers about 324 sq ft at 1u0022, 162 sq ft at 2u0022, 108 sq ft at 3u0022, and 81 sq ft at 4u0022. Since 1 cubic yard weighs roughly 1.3–1.5 tons, 1 ton covers about 230 sq ft at 1u0022, 115 sq ft at 2u0022, 77 sq ft at 3u0022, and 58 sq ft at 4u0022. Use these numbers to estimate how much to order, and remember to add 5–10% extra for waste and compaction.

Permit and HOA rules vary by property in Jasper; many residential resurfacing jobs do not need a city permit, but significant grading, driveway widening, or changes to stormwater flow might. Always check with the City of Jasper public works or your county office and review any HOA covenants before ordering. If you need help, contact our team and we can point you to local resources.

Hello Gravel's standard delivery window is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Local supplier stock and truck availability can allow same-week or even next-day service in many parts of West Tennessee, but confirm availability during checkout or by calling our team. Rush requests are handled case-by-case based on supplier schedules.

Some local suppliers and haulers offer haul-away and site cleanup for an additional fee, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on equipment and local rules. If you need removal, request it up front so we can match you with a provider who offers it and include the cost in your quote. Otherwise many customers order delivery only and hire a local contractor for removal and installation.

Labor rates vary, but for a typical 2-car driveway expect spreading and compacting to add roughly $150 to $600 depending on access, driveway size, and whether a machine like a plate compactor is used. If you are comfortable raking and compacting with a rented plate compactor, delivery-only can save money; if you want a finished surface, ask for installation estimates from local contractors or request tailgate spreading at checkout (driver discretion, no guarantees).
