Construction-grade crushed stone and gravel for Cave Spring typically comes from quarries in the Blue Ridge foothills and the Appalachian region of western Virginia, with some material sourced from nearby West Virginia producers. Materials vary by geology—limestone, sandstone, and trap rock are common—so texture, color, and hardness can differ between suppliers. Hello Gravel sources regionally, which helps match the right stone to your project and local conditions.

Typical retail ranges near Cave Spring are about $25 to $45 per ton for common crushed gravel (roughly $35 to $65 per cubic yard) and about $35 to $60 per ton for pea gravel (roughly $50 to $85 per cubic yard), with conversions depending on material density (approx. 1 cubic yard = 1.3 tons). Delivery fees can vary widely based on distance, access, and truck type; many Hello Gravel orders qualify for free delivery, but when charged, local delivery fees commonly range from about $50 to $150. These are estimates—check your ZIP code on Hello Gravel for exact supplier pricing and delivery costs.

Many local haulers can deliver 5 to 20 cubic yards, and some drivers can perform tailgate spreading at their discretion. You should request spreading at checkout and note site conditions; drivers will assess safety and access on arrival and may decline if conditions are unsafe. If you need guaranteed spreading, consider hiring a local landscaper or contractor in addition to the delivery.

For driveways in Cave Spring, a compactable base of crushed stone (3/4" to 1-1/4") topped with #57 or crushed gravel works well for durability and year-round use, while pea gravel is better for decorative surfaces and low-traffic areas. For drainage trenches and French drains, clean washed stone in the 3/4" to 1-1/2" range is recommended to maintain permeability. Because many yards in the Roanoke area have clay or loamy soils and face freeze-thaw cycles, include proper rock depth, slope, and geotextile fabric where needed to reduce settling and rutting.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which covers most small landscaping jobs. Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks (common capacities around 10–14 cubic yards) or similar local trucks; access limitations like low-hanging lines, narrow drives, or steep grades can change which truck can be used. Hauling fees depend on distance, load size, and access—many orders have free delivery, while others may incur fees commonly in the $50 to $150 range; your checkout will show any delivery charges before you pay.

Recycled aggregate and crushed concrete are often available from local producers and can be a cost-effective choice for base layers, driveways, and erosion-control fills. They tend to compact well and are less expensive than virgin stone but may include more fines, variable color, and more irregular particle shapes, so they're usually less desirable for exposed decorative surfaces. For visible landscaping or high-drainage applications, virgin clean stone is usually preferred, while recycled materials are fine for subbase and fill when properly compacted.

Permitting depends on the specific location and scope of work; a single residential delivery usually does not require a permit, but moving heavy trucks over local roads, installing curb cuts, or changing driveway surfaces may trigger Roanoke County or city requirements. Many homeowners associations have rules about driveway materials and visible finishes, so check your HOA covenants before ordering. If in doubt, contact Roanoke County public works or your HOA and tell Hello Gravel about access or permit needs when you order so we can coordinate with the hauler.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the desired depth in inches, then multiply to get cubic feet (length x width x depth) and divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards. As a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of gravel weighs about 1.3 tons, but actual weight depends on material; use Hello Gravel’s online material calculator or contact our team with project dimensions for a quick estimate. When in doubt, order a little extra (5–10 percent) to allow for settling and grading.

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.
