Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Caryville, TN

Choose materials based on function and appearance rather than brand names. Common choices include gravel, sand, dirt, stone for base, surfacing, and drainage applications; pick coarser, angular material for driveways and well-graded mixes for patios and paths. Think about load, drainage, and how often the area will see traffic when deciding between heavier aggregates or looser fills.

In Caryville's regional climate, rain and freeze-thaw cycles can move or settle loose material and affect compaction, while summer heat can dry out fine soils. Choose materials that handle local moisture—well-draining mixes for wet seasons and stable, compactable aggregates where freeze-thaw is an issue. Also plan for erosion control on slopes and use edging or geotextile where heavy run-off is expected.

Properties in the area can range from sandy, well-draining pockets to heavier, clay-prone soils that hold water and compact. If you have poor drainage or compacting soils, prioritize materials and installation methods that improve drainage, such as adding a drainable base layer or using a permeable surfacing system. A quick site check or soil test will help you pick the right base and top layers.

Estimate material by area and depth: multiply square feet by depth (in feet) to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 for cubic yards. For example, a 1,000 sq ft area at 3 inches deep is about 9 cubic yards, which typically equals roughly 12–14 tons depending on material density. Use our online calculator or contact the sales team for a project-specific estimate.

Standard delivery is usually available within 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Minimum orders start at about 3 tons and deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets, commonly tri-axle trucks. Drivers may be able to tailgate spread at their discretion; you can request it at checkout but it is not guaranteed.

Delivery costs typically combine the price per ton or per cubic yard of material with a delivery charge based on distance, truck access, and load size. Factors that increase cost include long hauls from local suppliers, difficult drop locations, and requests for special services like spreading. For an exact quote, enter your zip code and delivery details at checkout or contact our team.

Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; modifications are easier before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but changes are subject to supplier and trucker schedules and are not guaranteed. For the smoothest outcome, provide new details early and confirm any updated charges.

Clear a direct access path and a safe drop zone large enough for a tri-axle truck to offload, and remove vehicles or obstacles from the delivery area. Mark any underground utilities and fragile landscaping, and consider laying plywood over soft ground to protect lawns. Communicate any access restrictions at checkout so drivers and suppliers can plan appropriately.

Permit and zoning rules vary by municipality and county, so check with Caryville or the relevant county building department before starting large projects. Driveway tie-ins, curb cuts, and significant grading or drainage changes often have regulations or permit requirements. If you have an HOA, review its rules too; when in doubt, contact local authorities to confirm.

Bulk pricing and contractor discounts are common—ordering larger quantities often lowers the per-ton or per-yard price, and contractors may have account-based pricing with local suppliers. Availability of discounts depends on supplier agreements and order size, so ask our sales team about volume pricing and contractor rates when you get a quote. Always compare unit pricing after delivery fees to understand the true cost.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
