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 Hartford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hartford has a city population of 22,420 and sits in a steadily growing region with a 1.20% annual growth rate. With a moderate climate—228 sunny days per year (sunny days), annual rainfall of 34.25 inches (annual rainfall), and hardiness zone 8b—local demand for home improvement and small-scale construction stays consistent through the seasons. That steady growth and favorable weather mean more driveways, patios, drainage fixes, and landscape upgrades. Homeowners want gravel that drains well, resists rutting, and creates a stable base for pavers and pathways, so quality, local sourcing and the right size and grading make a real difference in long-term performance and maintenance needs.Popular Projects in Hartford This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hartford gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hartford.
Prices vary by gravel type and supplier, but delivered gravel in the Hartford, WI area commonly ranges from about $30 to $70 per ton. Final price depends on material (crushed stone vs decorative gravel), delivery distance, and truck size; contact Hello Gravel for an exact, location-based quote. Keep in mind our minimum order is 3 tons.
Buying in bulk (minimum 3 tons) and choosing a locally sourced base or recycled material is usually the cheapest option in Hartford. Schedule standard delivery (2+ business days) to avoid rush fees, consider self-spreading to save labor costs, and get multiple quotes through Hello Gravel to compare total delivered price.
Angular crushed stone such as 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed granite is typically the most durable in Hartford because the particles lock together and resist displacement during freeze-thaw cycles. For driveways and high-traffic areas choose a mix with a good proportion of fines or dense-grade aggregate to aid compaction and stability.
Hello Gravel deliveries usually arrive on tri-axle dump trucks that carry about 10 to 12 tons of gravel, depending on material density and local truck limits. Some larger tandem trucks or offloads may carry more or less; your order confirmation will list the expected truck type and load size.
Multiply the truck capacity by the per-ton price to estimate cost. For example, a 12-ton tri-axle load at $50 per ton would be about $600 delivered; actual cost varies by material, delivery distance, and scheduling, so request a specific quote from Hello Gravel for an accurate total.
Technically yes, but we don’t recommend placing gravel directly on uncompacted dirt in Hartford because frost heave and wet soils will cause shifting and rutting. For lasting results remove organic topsoil, compact the subgrade, add a crushed stone base, and consider geotextile fabric if soils are poorly draining.
No, 2 inches is insufficient for a vehicle driveway in Hartford. We recommend 4 to 6 inches of compacted gravel for a residential driveway, with a 6 to 8 inch base of larger crushed stone beneath in areas with heavy use or poor soils to reduce frost-related movement.
A compacted layer of crushed stone (often called 'A-base' or 2" minus) is the best material to place under gravel in Hartford for drainage and load-bearing. Adding geotextile fabric over soft soils and using edge restraints will further improve longevity and reduce migration from freeze-thaw cycles.
Gravel surfaces require periodic maintenance; light top-dressing or reshaping is common every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and winter plowing. With proper base preparation and drainage, a gravel driveway can function well for 10 to 20 years, but winter freeze-thaw and heavy use can shorten that lifespan.
Grading labels like 'A' and 'B' can vary by supplier, but generally 'A' aggregate refers to coarser base material and 'B' to finer graded material or surfacing gravel. Always ask your Hartford supplier for the local gradation chart or a sample so you know particle sizes and best uses for each grade.
For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 4 inches depth you need about 2.5 cubic yards, which is roughly 3.5 tons of gravel using a typical conversion of 1.4 tons per cubic yard. If you want 6 inches depth increase that to about 3.7 cubic yards or 5.2 tons; contact Hello Gravel with your exact dimensions for a precise calculation.
Order online at Hello Gravel by entering your Hartford zip code to see local material options, choose your delivery date (standard 2+ business days or next-day if ordered before noon CST), and select any notes about placement. Remember the minimum order is 3 tons, drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, and our team can help with quotes and material selection.

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.
