Gravel & Rock ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Milledgeville address and unloads right where you point.







Gravel and rock come in many shapes and sizes, and each one does a different job. Picking the wrong type can mean extra work or a surface that does not hold. Milledgeville gets about 50 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter right from the start.
This page covers the gravel and rock options we deliver to Milledgeville and all of Baldwin County. You order online by the ton, and a dump truck brings the material to your address.
Not every gravel works for every task. Some materials pack hard; others stay loose. The table below lists what we stock, what each one is for, and a note on where it fits best.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel | Play areas and patios | Rounded and smooth; does not compact well for driveways. |
| River Rock | Beds, borders, dry creek beds | Decorative and natural; too smooth for a walking surface. |
| 2-4" River Rock | Larger decorative cover and erosion control | Heavy stones that stay put on slopes. |
| Drain Rock | French drains and dry wells | Clean, angular rock that moves water freely. |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths and patios that compact firm | Needs a binder to hold; not for wet areas. |
| Crusher Run | Compacting base under everything | Contains fines; locks together when compacted. |
| Road Base | Lanes and pads that carry trucks | Heavy-duty base for vehicle loads. |
The project decides the material, not the other way around. Use this quick reference for five common jobs.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Path that stays firm | Decomposed Granite or Crusher Run | 4 to 6 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Dry creek bed | River Rock or 2-4" River Rock | 3 to 4 inches deep; place over landscape fabric |
| French drain | Drain Rock | Fill trench to grade; wrap in filter fabric |
| Landscape beds | 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel or River Rock | 2 to 3 inches over fabric for weed suppression |
| Erosion control on a slope | 2-4" River Rock or Road Base | 4 to 6 inches; larger stone holds better |
The ground around Milledgeville takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than in many other places. A base layer of Crusher Run or Road Base helps keep the top surface from washing out.
About 59 days a year drop below 32F. Freeze-thaw cycles can shift the ground under a thin layer, so plan for a base depth of at least 4 to 6 inches on anything that will carry weight or foot traffic. Snowfall is essentially zero here, so plowing damage to a loose surface is not a concern. Ground freezing is not a significant factor, which simplifies how deep the base layer needs to be.
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part. You choose a window at checkout, and the truck shows up.
Gravel is sold by the ton, and the right amount depends on the area and the depth you want. Use our material calculators to figure your tonnage before you order. The calculator handles square footage and depth for any material on this page.
Ordering is straightforward. Pick your material, enter the tons, and choose a delivery window at checkout. The price is calculated by your ZIP code. Loads range from 1 to 40-plus tons, and free delivery is available on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout for $50 off your first order.
Your delivery date must be at least 3 business days after the order date. You will get a confirmation email, then a second email closer to the date with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. Someone must be present during the window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck.

Yes. Milledgeville gets about 50 inches of precipitation a year, and the local soil takes water in very slowly. That means most rain runs across the surface, so a well-drained base and the right rock choice are important for any outdoor project.
Not much. About 59 days a year drop below 32F, but ground freezing is not a significant factor here. A standard base depth of 4 to 6 inches handles the few freeze-thaw cycles the area sees.
Depth depends on the project. A walking path needs 2 to 3 inches of top material over a compacted base. A driveway needs 4 to 6 inches of base plus 2 to 3 inches of surface. Use our material calculators to match depth to your square footage and get the right tonnage.
Size affects drainage, compaction, and appearance. Smaller gravel like 3/8" pea gravel packs tighter but stays loose on top. Larger rock like 2-4" river rock drains fast and resists erosion. Crushed materials lock together; rounded ones do not. Choose the size that fits the job's load and water needs.
