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 Ripley Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Ripley, with a population of 12,170, is a growing small city anchored by a broader metro area population of 2.6+ million. Local development is expanding at an annual growth rate of 1.80%, and homeowners here face the typical demands of a temperate, sunny climate—Ripley sits in hardiness zone 8b, averages about 228 sunny days each year, and receives roughly 34.25 inches of rain annually. That combination of sun and periodic heavy rain drives demand for durable, low-maintenance surfaces and reliable drainage solutions. Homeowners and contractors choose quality gravel because it stabilizes driveways and walkways, reduces erosion on sloped yards, and provides a cost-effective base for patios, garden paths, and rain-friendly landscaping that holds up as the community grows.Popular Projects in Ripley This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Ripley gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Ripley.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect roughly $30 to $60 per ton delivered in the Ripley area. A typical tri-axle truck delivers about 10 to 14 tons, so one truckload usually runs about $300 to $840 delivered. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and many orders in the area qualify for free delivery, but final cost depends on material type and exact delivery location.
Assuming a common driveway width of 12 ft (200 ft x 12 ft = 2,400 sq ft), you would need about 19 tons at 2" depth, 39 tons at 4", or 58 tons at 6". Using a mid-range delivered price of $35 per ton, material + delivery would be about $665 at 2", $1,365 at 4", and $2,030 at 6" — your final price may be higher or lower depending on exact material, local delivery fees, and supplier availability.
In West Tennessee, 1 ton of typical crushed stone covers about 125 sq ft at 2" depth, about 62 sq ft at 4" depth, and about 41 sq ft at 6" depth. These figures use a common weight-to-volume conversion for crushed stone and are good estimates for ordering. Local material density can vary, so we recommend rounding up slightly or using Hello Gravel’s calculator for a quote.
Total cost depends on base work and how much grading is needed, but a typical range is $2,200 to $5,000 for a 200 ft x 12 ft driveway replaced to a 3"-4" finished depth. That range includes materials and delivery (roughly $1,200 to $1,800 for materials at typical rates) plus labor for grading and base prep ($800 to $3,000 depending on site access and how much excavation or base work is required). Get local contractor quotes and a Hello Gravel materials quote for an accurate total.
For Ripley’s climate, a layered approach works best: crusher run (also called “road base” or “crusher run”) for the base and 3/4" crushed stone or #57 stone for the driving surface. Crusher run is inexpensive and stable; 3/4" crushed stone provides good drainage and traction. Typical delivered prices in the area are roughly $20 to $40 per ton for crusher run and $30 to $60 per ton for crushed stone or decorative gravels, depending on supplier and color.
Yes — Ripley is served by local suppliers and by Hello Gravel’s network, but availability depends on your exact zip code. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery timing is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available if you order before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees vary by distance and truck size; many local orders qualify for free delivery while long hauls or small orders may incur fees of $50 to $250.
Hello Gravel can request tailgate spreading from the driver at checkout, but spreading is performed at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed. Hello Gravel does not routinely provide mechanical compaction as part of standard delivery; for reliable spreading and compaction you should hire a local contractor. Professional spreading/compacting costs vary widely — expect roughly $200 to $1,500 depending on driveway size, equipment needed, and local labor rates.
You can buy bulk gravel from local quarries, landscape supply yards in West Tennessee, and through Hello Gravel, which connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers. Many suppliers offer volume discounts for large loads, and Hello Gravel negotiates local rates — contact our sales team for a custom quote and to ask about bulk pricing or discounts for multiple loads. For the best price, request quotes while specifying material type, desired depth, and your delivery zip code.
Typical annual maintenance for a moderate-traffic gravel driveway in Ripley runs about $100 to $600 per year, depending on traffic, drainage issues, and winter weather. Expect to add a thin top-up of material (often 1/8" to 1/4" averaged across the surface), which for a 200 ft x 12 ft driveway usually means a few tons per year costing $50 to $250 in material; regrading or hiring a small machine can add $100 to $350 in labor. Good drainage and periodic grading reduce long-term costs.
For a standard 200 ft x 12 ft driveway finished at about 4" depth, you will need roughly 39 tons of material. At typical delivered rates of $30 to $45 per ton, expect materials and delivery to cost about $1,170 to $1,755. If you add professional spreading and compaction or significant base work, the total installed cost will commonly fall between $2,200 and $4,500 — request a Hello Gravel quote and local contractor bids for a precise estimate.
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.
