Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Palmer Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Palmer is a small but growing community with a city population of 1,090 and ties to a larger metro area of 2.6+ million. With a steady growth rate of 1.80% annually, homeowners and local contractors are seeing more demand for site work, driveways, and landscape upgrades. Palmer’s climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—supports outdoor projects year-round but also means materials must handle both sun exposure and periodic heavy rain. That combination increases the need for durable, well-draining aggregates that resist erosion, limit mud, and provide stable walking and driving surfaces. In Palmer’s soils and weather, gravel is a practical, low-maintenance choice for pathways, driveways, French drains, and base layers. A mix with angular particles sheds water quickly while compacting to a firm surface, which helps manage the 34.25 inches of yearly rainfall and reduces pooling on hot, sunny days. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and dump-truck delivery so you get regionally sourced gravel that fits Palmer’s conditions, transparent pricing, and a scheduled delivery date—making it easier to finish projects on time and with the right material.Popular Projects in Palmer This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Palmer gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Palmer.
Prices in the Palmer/West Tennessee area typically range by material and haul distance. Expect roughly $25 to $60 per ton for common gravels, with crushed driveway stone at the lower end and decorative or specialty stone at the higher end; minimum orders start at 3 tons. Final price depends on type, supplier, and delivery distance, and next-day delivery or short-notice requests may carry extra fees. Use our checkout or get a quote to see exact pricing for your zip code.
As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of gravel covers about 60 to 100 square feet at a 2-inch depth, depending on the gravel size and how much it settles. Coarser, irregular crushed stone compacts differently than pea gravel, so you may need a little more for a firm surface. For a precise estimate, use Hello Gravel's material calculator and factor in local compaction and drainage needs.
A 200-foot driveway that is 10 feet wide at a 3-inch surface depth needs roughly 15 to 20 cubic yards of material, which is commonly 20 to 30 tons depending on the stone density. At typical local pricing of $25 to $50 per ton, the material alone will often fall in the $500 to $1,500 range, plus delivery and any spreading costs. These are estimates; use our calculator or get a quote for your exact width, depth, and material choice before ordering.
Yes—gravel is a cost-effective, well-draining choice for Palmer, but West Tennessee's clay soils and heavy rains mean you should plan for proper base preparation and drainage. A compacted base, good slope toward drains, and optional geotextile fabric will reduce rutting and washouts. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to help, but note spreading is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed.
Bulk loads from local quarries or crushed-stone suppliers are usually the most affordable option because the per-ton price drops with volume. Native crushed stone and reclaimed road mix are often cheaper than decorative pebbles or specialty colors. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers so you can compare types, prices, and delivery options for the most cost-effective choice.
Palmer's small population (about 1,090 residents) can mean fewer suppliers located inside town, so materials are often sourced from nearby towns in West Tennessee. That can increase haul distance and delivery fees compared with big cities, especially for smaller orders, so ordering the minimum 3 tons or more usually reduces per-ton cost. We recommend requesting a delivery quote early and checking delivery windows during busy seasons.
Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days from order, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and uses local dump trucks for delivery; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion. Confirm your preferred delivery date at checkout and contact our team if you need to change the order before dispatch.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, the texture, color, and angularity of gravel for Palmer will reflect West Tennessee geology and may vary from photos. Local materials often include denser, clay-influenced mixes that compact differently and may stain less than lighter northern stones. If color or texture matters, add notes to your order and ask our team for nearby supplier options or samples.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
