Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Greenville, AL

Homeowners in Greenville often choose materials that balance cost, drainage, and durability, such as mixes of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone sourced locally. The right choice depends on expected traffic, maintenance willingness, and how well a material sheds water; coarser mixes usually drain better while finer materials can compact smoother. Consider local climate, slope, and any HOA or city preferences when picking a material, and use our material quiz or contact our team for recommendations.

Delivery cost varies by material type, order size, and distance from the supplier, so prices differ across West Alabama. Many areas qualify for free delivery, while remote or long-haul jobs may incur a delivery fee; Hello Gravel shows zip-code pricing and provides a quote during checkout. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.

Materials that promote drainage and resist washout typically perform best in Greenville’s hot, humid climate with occasional heavy rains. Well-graded aggregates and stone-base layers reduce rutting and standing water compared with loose dirt or very fine sand, and compacting base layers helps stability. Always plan for proper slope and drainage, and consider local sourcing since regional materials are often better suited to local weather.

Spring and early fall are often ideal for deliveries and installation because temperatures are mild and rain is less frequent than in summer. Summer deliveries are common but may require working early or late in the day to avoid peak heat, while very wet periods can delay spreading and compaction. Keep our 2+ business day standard lead time in mind and request next-day delivery before noon CST if you need faster service.

Many local suppliers and haulers deliver to rural and unpaved addresses near Greenville, but access and truck safety are the deciding factors. Drivers typically will not drive on unsafe roads or yards; if truck access is limited, deliveries may be made to the nearest safe drop-off point. Add delivery notes at checkout and contact our team to discuss access, preferred placement, or alternate staging areas.

Start with the area (length x width) and desired depth in inches; you can convert to cubic yards with this formula: area (sq ft) x depth (in) / 324 = cubic yards. Round up about 10% for compaction and waste, then use our material calculator or request a quote to convert cubic yards to tons and get pricing. If you prefer, send the project dimensions to our sales team for a quick estimate and advice on ideal depths for different materials.

For small, simple projects many homeowners successfully handle material delivery and do the work themselves, saving on labor costs. If the job requires heavy equipment, grading, permits, or precise compaction, hiring a local contractor is usually faster and reduces risk. Hello Gravel serves both DIYers and contractors and can help supply materials whether you self-install or work with a pro.

Permits and HOA rules vary by property and neighborhood in Greenville, so check with city/county offices and your HOA before starting work. Common issues include driveway setbacks, stormwater runoff, and curbside parking restrictions. Hello Gravel can supply materials and delivery but cannot determine permit requirements, so contact local authorities for specifics before ordering.

Availability and appearance reflect local geology, so materials near Greenville may differ from those elsewhere in West Alabama, and pricing is influenced by supply, local demand, and haul distance. Hello Gravel sources regionally and will present supplier options and pricing for your zip code so you can compare. If a specific look or material is important, add notes at checkout and we will try to match regional options where possible.

All materials trade off cost, drainage, compaction, and maintenance: coarser mixes drain well and resist rutting but may shift under traffic, while finer materials compact smoother but can hold water or wash out. Dirt is inexpensive and easy to grade but may require more maintenance and erosion control; mixes with stone or gravel often form a more stable base for driveways and paths. Consider your load requirements, desired appearance, and local weather when choosing, and ask our team for guidance on the right mix for your project.

Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks that need safe, clear access and a reasonably level drop zone; drivers will assess whether tailgate spreading is possible but it is not guaranteed. Clear obstacles, mark the preferred drop location, and ensure vehicles can enter and leave without getting stuck; if access is limited, arrange a safe staging point near the site. Contact our team as soon as possible to change delivery details or to request special instructions; minimum orders start at 3 tons.

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

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
