Gravel in Middleton, TN

One ton of typical crushed gravel in Middleton (West Tennessee) is about 0.6-0.8 cubic yards, so it will cover roughly 200-220 sq ft at a 1" depth, about 100-110 sq ft at 2", and about 65-75 sq ft at 3". Local gravel density can vary, so use our calculator or ask for a supplier estimate when ordering.

A cubic yard of gravel usually weighs between 1.3 and 1.7 tons depending on stone type and moisture; a good rule of thumb is about 1.4 tons per cubic yard for many West Tennessee gravels. If you need precise numbers for delivery, ask your Hello Gravel quote for the local material weight.

Prices vary by supplier, delivery distance, and material type; in West Tennessee pea gravel often falls into a modest price range, but the best way to know is to request a real-time quote on Hello Gravel. We show transparent pricing and can include delivery costs so you know the total before you buy.

Two cubic yards of pea gravel typically weigh about 2.6 to 3.4 tons, with a common estimate around 2.8 tons (roughly 5,600 lbs). Weight depends on stone type and moisture, so check the supplier spec if truck weight limits matter.

Tri-axle dump trucks we use commonly carry about 8-12 cubic yards (roughly 10-18 tons depending on material). At 2" depth, a 10-cubic-yard load covers about 1,600 sq ft; at 3" it covers about 1,080 sq ft. Exact truck capacity and coverage will be noted on your Hello Gravel delivery estimate.

Cost depends on driveway length, depth, material choice, base prep, and local labor. For material only, expect to pay by the ton or cubic yard and get a detailed quote from Hello Gravel; include site prep and drainage work in your budget since West Tennessee clay and heavy rains can require extra base work. Use our material calculator and request a custom quote to get a realistic price for your specific 20-foot driveway.

A standard 7x14 dump trailer typically carries about 3 to 4 cubic yards of gravel, which equates to roughly 4 to 5 tons depending on the material. If you plan to pick up material yourself, check your trailer's rated capacity and local supplier load limits before hauling.

For most residential driveways in Middleton, plan on a compacted base of 4-6" of crushed stone or road base, topped with 2-3" of a finished gravel like #57 or crushed limestone. Local clay soils and drainage issues common in West Tennessee may require a thicker base or geotextile fabric to prevent rutting and washout.

Both. Landscapers and DIYers often think in cubic yards, while suppliers commonly price and load gravel by the ton. Hello Gravel shows the ordered quantity and the minimum order (3 tons) during checkout and can translate between yards and tons for your project.

Pea gravel looks nice and is comfortable underfoot, but it shifts easily, can make vehicle traction and wheelchair access difficult, and tends to migrate without edging. In Middleton's rainy climate pea gravel may also wash into gutters or low spots, so you may need edging, frequent raking, or a stabilized option for driveways and high-traffic areas.

Crushed limestone or compacted road base is often the most economical and practical option in West Tennessee because it compacts well and is widely available locally. Cheaper materials can save money up front but may require more maintenance, so consider durability and drainage when choosing a budget option.

It depends on your truck’s payload rating. One ton equals 2,000 lbs; many half-ton pickups have payload limits below that and could be overloaded by a full ton of gravel. For safety, check your truck's payload in the owner's manual; Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and we deliver by dump truck, which avoids pickup loading issues.

For a 10x10 area (100 sq ft): at 2" depth you'll need about 0.6-0.8 cubic yards, which is roughly 1 ton of pea gravel; at 3" depth plan on about 1.0-1.2 cubic yards or about 1.5 tons. Use our online calculator or request a quick quote to get material rounded for delivery and compaction.

You can put gravel over soil, but for a lasting surface you should remove soft topsoil, compact subgrade, add a 4-6" base of crushed stone or road base, and consider a geotextile fabric to reduce mixing and rutting. Because Middleton soils can be clay-rich and prone to poor drainage, proper base and grading are especially important to prevent settling and washouts.

A layered approach works best: 4-6" of compacted road base or crushed stone for the foundation, topped with 2-3" of angular stone such as #57 crushed limestone for stability and drainage. Crushed limestone and gravel blends are common and practical in the Middleton area; Hello Gravel can help you pick a locally sourced material that matches your budget and traffic needs.
