Gravel and stone delivery in Moody, AL
Revised October 2026
Driveways, parking pads, drainage, base under concrete or pavers. Delivered to Moody Parkway corridor, Markeeta, Acmar and the rest of Moody.
Stone orders in Moody are driveways, parking pads and drainage. A driveway that has gone soft needs crusher run first, packed, and #57 on top. Chert is the cheap one-layer option on a long rural drive. For a French drain or under a slab it is #57. Say what the stone is for on the quote form and the right one gets sent. Stone is heavy, so a loaded truck needs firm ground around Moody Parkway corridor too.
Gravel and stone jobs in Moody
Moody sits in the Valley and Ridge country of southwestern St. Clair County, with northeast-trending ridges and a valley floor of shale and limestone under red clay and chert. Kelly Creek and its branches drain the low ground and can flood. Housing is a mix of older rural lots and fast-growing subdivisions along Moody Parkway built on cleared, graded land, where settling and erosion gullies are the usual fill jobs. Old coal mining around Acmar means spoil ground is likely in places.
What it is for
- A new gravel driveway or parking pad
- Topping up a driveway that has gone to mud
- Base under concrete, pavers or a shed
- French drains and drainage trenches
Stone does not fix a soft driveway by itself. If the ground underneath is mud, it needs to be dug out and built up with crusher run before the top stone goes on.
Getting the truck in
Subdivision streets are standard but many lots are on county roads with long gravel drives; I-20 exits 144 and 147 give easy truck access.
Questions people ask
Crusher run or #57 for a driveway?
Both, in that order. Crusher run packs into a hard base, usually four inches of it. #57 goes on top, two to three inches, because it stays loose and sheds water. Chert is a cheaper one-layer option for a farm or back drive.
How many tons of gravel do I need?
One ton of crushed stone covers about 80 to 100 square feet at two inches deep. A 12 by 50 foot driveway at four inches of crusher run is about 10 to 12 tons, which is most of a tandem load.
Can a dump truck reach my spot in Moody?
Subdivision streets are standard but many lots are on county roads with long gravel drives; I-20 exits 144 and 147 give easy truck access. Say what the access is like on the quote form and the price will allow for the right size truck.
