The $186 was just for the delivery. It was like $100 for 4 yards of 3/4" gravel.

CougarTailDevourer Intervention Needed

So total would be $286. I realized that that was pretty high and have been calling around and found some cheaper options since I originally posted this.

I need to haul some gravel for a patio I'm building. I've got a trailer but it's

How much gravel are you hauling?

4 tons. I'm guessing I'll have to make a couple trips. I've got a full-size

well known people should hire a woke PC editor to edit anything they say.

I don’t think so. Using a tarp isn’t going to secure the gravel well

I can always have it delivered but it's super pricey to do so. May check into

Delivery fee is only $40 where i live for a full load of gravel delivered in

I'll have to look around then. The place that I called quoted me a $186 delivery

I think even $186 would be worth it over making 5-6 trips and buying plywood

$186 total or just for the delivery?

Make some plywood sides

Great idea. Plywood is super cheap yet sturdy enough to get the job done. How do

If your trailer sides have holes like in the picture

Most of the securing will be done by the 2x4 supports that insert into those

Bite the bullet and pay for delivery.

I don't think that type of trailer is a good idea for gravel. I don't even think you could safely put 1 yard in there,

I found a guy with a tip trailer he only charged $100 and could haul up to 5

That trailer is likely not rated for the weight. Home Depot rents dump trailers.

Really, that's good to know. I'll check into their prices.

DO NOT HAUL IT! It is worth the extra money to get it hauled. Trust me.
