Gravel in Milledgeville, TN

Delivery cost depends on gravel type, total tonnage, and distance from the supplier. In West Tennessee you can typically expect a delivered range (material plus delivery) rather than a single fixed price; smaller orders and specialty gravels cost more per ton. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum for delivery and can provide an exact price for your zip code and preferred delivery date via the site or by contacting our team.

A 12 x 50 ft driveway at 4 inches deep needs about 7.4 cubic yards of material, which converts to roughly 10 to 11 tons using common crushed stone densities. We recommend ordering slightly more (about 10-12 tons) to allow for compaction and spreading. Remember Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum when placing your order.

For West Tennessee's humid subtropical climate, angular crushed stone or 3/4" minus (crusher run) perform well because they lock together and resist washout better than round gravels. Washed stone is good where drainage is critical, while pea gravel is decorative but tends to migrate and requires more maintenance on driveways. Choose material based on use: crushed stone for driveways and work areas, washed/gravel mix for drainage features, and pea gravel for patios or decorative paths.

Yes, suppliers and haulers serve West Tennessee, but Milledgeville itself is very small, so materials are often sourced from nearby towns or regional yards. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and contracted dump truck fleets in the area; check your zip code on our site or contact us for exact supplier options and lead times. Regional sourcing means color and texture may vary by supplier.

Gravel is usually the cheapest option up front and easy to repair after storms, but it requires periodic regrading and additional stone over time. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially but need less frequent routine maintenance; they can be more vulnerable to edge failure and drainage issues in heavy rain if not properly designed. For many rural Milledgeville driveways, gravel is a practical, lower-cost choice if you accept ongoing upkeep.

Heavy rain in West Tennessee can cause washouts and rutting, while freeze-thaw cycles may contribute to loosening material in poorly drained areas. A properly prepared base, good drainage (crown, ditches, or French drains), geotextile fabric, and angular crushed stone will reduce problems and extend life. Regular maintenance such as grading low spots and adding fresh stone after storms helps keep the driveway stable.

Prices vary by material and distance, but a rough range in West Tennessee is about $35 to $60 per ton for common gravels and roughly $45 to $85 per cubic yard depending on stone type and supplier. Specialty or decorative gravels cost more, and hauling charges can increase the delivered price for remote locations.

Both approaches are common: homeowners often rent a plate compactor or walk-behind roller for small jobs, while contractors bring heavier rollers and handle grading, base prep, and compaction for larger or high-traffic driveways. If you want a longer-lasting driveway with proper base and drainage, hiring a contractor is worth considering; if you are comfortable doing the work, renting equipment is a cost-effective DIY option. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform it at their discretion and it is not guaranteed.

Recycled crushed concrete (RCC) is a cost-effective option commonly used as a compacted base because it binds well and provides strong support. It can be used for driveway bases or full surfaces, but appearance and drainage characteristics differ from natural stone and it may include fines that harden differently. Availability and pricing vary regionally, so check local supplier options via Hello Gravel if you want RCC for your project.

Excavate to a stable subgrade, install geotextile fabric where needed, and lay a compacted base of coarse crushed stone or roadbase before placing surface gravel; provide a slight crown to shed water and add edge restraint to prevent spreading. For driveways crossing low spots, include culverts or swales; for septic fields, follow local health department requirements and consult your installer on approved fill and drain rock. Proper preparation reduces washout and reduces how often you need to add stone.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
