Materials Available for Delivery
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
Garden Soil
Premium garden soil enriched with organic matter—essential for vigorous, healthy plant growth. Ideal for filling gardens, building raised beds, and enhancing tired or compacted soil. Fulfillment 20-40% organic is ideal
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.

Why South Salem Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
South Salem homeowners are part of a regional housing market tied to North Whiteplains (City Population: 13,470) and a metro area of 2.3+ million. The area's modest, steady Growth Rate: 0.40% annually points to predictable, ongoing demand for remodeling, maintenance, and incremental infill projects rather than rapid expansion. That steady pace means regular need for bulk supplies—driveway bases, drainage stone, topsoil, sand, and mulch—rather than one-time large-scale orders. With Hardiness Zone: 8b, 228 sunny days per year, and Annual Rainfall: 33.50 inches, local climate favors landscapes that manage both sun exposure and periodic rain. Quality, regionally sourced materials matter here because they determine drainage, erosion control, vegetation establishment, and long-term maintenance needs. Choosing the right gradation and texture up front reduces rework, protects foundations, and supports low-maintenance plantings suited to the area. Local soils and seasonal patterns in South Salem create practical constraints for material performance: intermittent heavy rains can lead to surface runoff while long sunny stretches increase evaporation, so homeowners need materials that balance permeability with moisture retention. This affects a broad range of choices—from base layers for paving to planting mixes and erosion-control blends. Homeowners should prioritize materials with known drainage properties and regional compatibility. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you to local suppliers and haulers who understand these conditions, offering tools like quantity calculators and scheduled delivery windows so you can pick the right materials and time deliveries to match local weather and project timelines.Popular Projects in South Salem This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - South Salem Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in South Salem.
Homeowners in South Salem commonly order gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, garden beds, drainage projects, and pathways. These materials cover base layers, topping, grading, and soil replacement so you can choose a product based on function rather than brand.
Choose materials based on function: stable, well-draining mixes for driveways and compactable bases for paths; finer materials for leveling and top dressing; and looser, organic-friendly mixes for garden beds. Consider South Salem's freeze-thaw cycles and wet summers by prioritizing good drainage and materials that compact well and shed water.
Typical residential driveways use a compacted base of 4 to 8 inches for light-use drives and 8 to 12 inches for heavier use, with a compactable wearing layer on top. Walkways and garden paths often need 3 to 6 inches of compacted base; always compact in lifts and check local code or a contractor for final specs.
Heavy-truck access can be limited in winter or during spring thaw on soft shoulders; schedules can also be affected by snow events. Plan deliveries for spring through fall when possible, and check with your supplier or Hello Gravel for seasonal lead times and road restriction advisories.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order, with next-day options available in many areas for orders placed before the cutoff time. Delivery windows are scheduled at checkout, but exact times are not guaranteed and can vary by supplier and local traffic.
Deliveries are performed by contracted dump truck fleets; drivers will place material where it can be safely accessed from the street or driveway. If you need tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but expect the driver to decide on-site whether it can be done safely; large yards, obstacles, and soft ground can limit placement options.
Use a simple volume calculation: length x width x depth to get cubic feet, then convert to cubic yards (divide by 27) or tons using an online calculator. Hello Gravel's material calculator and customer service can help estimate amounts for common projects like driveways, raised beds, and drainage swales.
Most residential deliveries do not require a permit, but local rules can vary and some municipalities require permits for heavy truck access or curb cuts. Check South Salem or Westchester County ordinances and secure any required permissions before scheduling a large delivery to avoid fines or delays.
Freeze-thaw cycles and wet summers increase the importance of drainage and frost-resistant base layers; choose materials that drain well and compact reliably to resist heaving. Proper grading, subbase compaction, and using coarser drainage layers where water collects will improve long-term performance.
Contact customer service as soon as possible to request changes or cancellations; modifications are easier before the order is processed or dispatched. Hello Gravel will make a best effort to accommodate requests, but changes after dispatch may be limited and could incur fees.
Some local suppliers and haulers offer add-on services like basic site prep, minor spreading, and pickup of small amounts of debris, but offerings vary by contractor. Request these services at checkout and confirm pricing; for extensive grading or debris removal, hiring a local contractor is usually recommended.
Delivery fees and lead times depend on distance from local suppliers, material type, and truck availability; urban-adjacent areas like South Salem often have moderate pricing and typical 2+ business day lead times. For exact rates and fastest delivery options, enter your zip code at checkout or contact customer service for a tailored quote.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
