Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Harvey, LA

Prices vary by material, local supply, and order size, so exact rates change frequently. In Harvey you can expect regional pricing that Hello Gravel displays at checkout after you enter your zip code; this gives the most accurate per-ton or per-cubic-yard rate for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order confirmation, with next-day delivery sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Exact timing depends on supplier schedules and local truck availability, so choose your preferred delivery date during checkout and confirm the appointment.

For wet or flood-prone yards, favor materials and mixes that improve drainage and resist washout, such as well-graded aggregates used as base layers and permeable surfacing options. Consider the project's purpose (driveway, patio, erosion control) and choose materials that balance drainage, stability, and local durability; our team can help guide selections based on your project needs.

Permit and HOA rules vary by neighborhood and project type, so check local city regulations and your HOA before starting work. Common requirements include driveway permits, curb cuts, and utility locates for deep grading; if in doubt, contact Harvey city offices or your HOA and mention your planned material and placement.

Local restrictions commonly include truck access limits on narrow streets, overhead obstructions, and weight limits on residential roads or driveways. Drivers typically dump at the curb, driveway, or designated drop point, but placement beyond the curb or spreading depends on the truck, equipment, and driver discretion—note that tailgate spreading is not guaranteed.

Harvey's soil and drainage can hold moisture and shift, so choose materials that provide proper drainage, prevent settling, and pair well with your site grading. Often a layered approach—compacted base materials under a finished surface—improves performance, and contractors may recommend geotextile fabric in soft or saturated soils for added stability.

Avoid scheduling major deliveries during peak rainy or hurricane months when heavy storms can delay trucks and make placement difficult. Plan work for dry windows in the season, allow extra lead time around storm forecasts, and consider storing materials off the street to reduce washout risk.

Contractors commonly price installation by combining material cost (per ton or per cubic yard), hauling/delivery fees, and labor for spreading, grading, and compaction. If you want bundled pricing, get detailed written estimates that separate material, delivery, and labor so you can compare apples to apples and confirm whether spreading or compaction is included.

Homeowners often underorder by not accounting for compaction, slope, or waste, or they miscalculate depth or conversion between tons and cubic yards. Use a material calculator, factor in 5-15% extra for waste and compaction depending on project, and contact our team with project dimensions for help before you place the order.

Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and haulers and can help coordinate delivery; some local contractors and suppliers may offer combined delivery-plus-installation packages. We recommend requesting quotes that list each service, verifying contractor credentials, and confirming scheduling and any permit needs before work begins.

Clear the planned dump area of vehicles, trailers, low branches, and loose items, and provide a direct access route for the truck to safely park close to the drop point. Mark the desired drop location, check for underground utilities, and let the driver know special site conditions on arrival; if you need spreading, request it at checkout and the driver will assess feasibility.

Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture, color, and sizing can vary with local geology, so products may not match photos exactly. We encourage customers to add color or texture preferences in the order notes and contact customer service if you have specific expectations before ordering.

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.
