Gravel: Superior Drainage For Local Rain • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Scheduling
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - East Swanzey gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Swanzey.
A typical tri-axle dump truck in our network holds about 10-14 cubic yards of loose gravel (roughly 14-20 tons depending on material). In the West New Hampshire area that translates to a delivered price typically in the $500-$1,200 range, depending on gravel type, local supplier rates, and delivery distance to East Swanzey (pop. 6,492). Final price depends on the exact material, any access or spreading requests, and seasonal availability.
A 10-cubic-yard load usually costs in the range of $400-$800 delivered in the West New Hampshire region, depending on the specific gravel type and whether any spreading or special access is needed. Prices vary by supplier and time of year, so request a quote for an exact figure before ordering.
Expect about $35-$80 per cubic yard delivered for bulk gravel in the East Swanzey area, with crushed stone near the higher end and recycled or common field gravel near the lower end. Bagged gravel bought at retail stores will cost more per cubic yard than bulk delivery.
One ton of gravel typically runs about $30-$70 delivered around West New Hampshire, depending on material density and type. Heavier or specialty stone (decorative or screened) tends to cost more, and delivery charges can affect the per-ton price for small orders.
Cost depends on width and depth, but as an example a 20-foot-long by 10-foot-wide driveway at 4 inches depth needs about 2.5 cubic yards (roughly 3.5 tons) of gravel. Using local bulk prices, that would typically cost about $100-$300 delivered; increasing depth to 6 inches or widening the driveway raises material and delivery costs accordingly. For vehicles or New Hampshire freeze-thaw cycles, we recommend a deeper base and compaction, which increases total cost.
No, 2 inches is too thin for a driveway surface—it's suitable only as a light topping or for pedestrian paths. For a functional driveway in East Swanzey's climate, plan on 4-6 inches of surface gravel over a compacted base (and 6-8 inches of compacted crushed stone if you expect heavy vehicles or poor drainage). Thicker, well-compacted layers help resist rutting during freeze-thaw cycles.
Multiply length by width by depth (all in feet), then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. For tons, multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 (1 cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.4 tons). Example: a 20 ft by 10 ft area at 4 inches deep is 20*10*(4/12)/27 = about 2.5 cubic yards, or roughly 3.5 tons. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order, so small jobs may hit that minimum.
Yes. Local geology in West New Hampshire often yields granite-based, gray-colored gravels and crushed stone, which affect texture and color. Seasonal access, winter freeze-thaw, and rural delivery distance from suppliers to East Swanzey (pop. 6,492) can affect pricing and recommended depths, so mention project timing and site access when you request a quote.
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.
