Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Boston, KY

Choose a material that compacts well, provides drainage, and matches the traffic on your driveway. In Boston's climate look for well-graded aggregates that resist washout and settle firmly; consider a sturdy base layer and a wearing layer suited to your use. Use our material quiz or contact our team to match options to your slope, budget, and maintenance preferences.

Measure the length and width to get square feet, decide on the depth you need, and convert that volume to cubic yards using our online calculator. Because material weight varies by type, use Hello Gravel's calculator or request an estimate from our team to convert cubic yards to tons and factor in compaction and waste. If you prefer, send dimensions to our sales team and we will help with a quick estimate.

Delivery cost depends on the material type, quantity ordered, distance from the supplier, and any special delivery requests like tailgate spreading. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for an extra fee when ordered before noon CST.

Materials that drain well and do not retain water generally perform best in freeze-thaw and heavy rain conditions. Well-graded aggregates with angular particles provide stability and reduce shifting, and combining them with proper grading, compaction, and drainage features helps longevity. Consider adding geotextile fabric, edging, or a base layer to improve performance on slopes or wet sites.

Late spring through early fall is usually the easiest time for most earthwork and paving-style projects because the ground is workable and weather is more predictable. Winter and very wet periods can delay work and make compaction and grading difficult, so plan ahead and reserve materials and trucks in advance. Use our delivery calendar to pick dates and ask about seasonal lead times for your area.

Many local suppliers in our network do deliver to rural addresses in and around Boston, KY, but availability depends on the exact location and road conditions. Enter your zip code at checkout to see service availability and any additional access fees that might apply. If you have a long driveway or narrow access, note delivery instructions at checkout so the hauler can plan safely.

Match the material size and grade to the specific issue: larger, heavier aggregates work well in channels and outlets, while smaller, well-graded mixes are better for filter layers and top dressing. Combine materials with proper grading, drain pipes, and fabric to prevent clogging and migration, and plan for maintenance after major storms. Consult our team with site photos and slope details to pick the right approach.

Coarser, well-draining aggregates are generally best where drainage is important, while finer materials or compactible mixes provide a smoother walking surface. Paths often use a layered approach: a compacted base for stability with a top material chosen for comfort and appearance. Consider traffic level, drainage needs, and desired look when selecting materials, and use edging to keep loose material in place.

You can request tailgate spreading or other delivery notes during checkout, but drivers perform spreading at their discretion and only if it can be done safely. Hello Gravel arranges delivery on contracted dump truck fleets, typically tri-axles, and standard delivery timing is 2+ business days with next-day options available for a fee if ordered early. Provide clear delivery instructions and contact our team if you need assistance planning placement.

Installation costs vary widely based on project size, site preparation, material choice, and local labor rates, so it's best to get several local quotes. Contractors may charge by the square foot, by the hour, or by the job; factor in excavation, base material, compaction, and any drainage work. Hello Gravel can provide material estimates to share with contractors so you can compare total project costs more easily.

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