    Default Re: Gravel Contractor?

    One of the times we had gravel brought in for our road in our addition, we hired Dale Brown trucking to bring it in. Since me and another neighbor were using our own tractors to spead it, we had Dale Brown use belly dump semi trailers so they could crack the doors on the roll and lay down a windrow which made it easier for us to spread. You can have them use an end dump trailer but they can only dump the gravel in one pile and it has to be spead out from there.

    Also, the price of fuel greatly affects the cost to haul gravel. 2/3's of the cost for a load of gravel is in fuel. So, it's cheaper to have it brought in by the semi load than hauled in 10 wheelers.
