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.
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.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
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 Central Valley Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Central Valley is a modestly sized community with a city population of 2,040 and lies within a broader metro area of 2.3+ million. Its steady growth rate of 0.40% annually suggests gradual, sustained demand for home improvement and small-construction projects rather than sudden spikes in development. With about 228 sunny days each year and average annual rainfall of 33.50 inches in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners face a mix of sun exposure and moderate precipitation that shapes material needs. That climate and local geography increase demand for a range of bulk materials—well-graded soils and topsoils for planting, aggregates and base materials for driveways and patios, mulches for moisture management, and erosion-control supplies for slopes and drainage features. Reliable, correctly sized deliveries help local DIYers and contractors keep projects on schedule and avoid costly reorders.Popular Projects in Central Valley This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Central Valley Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Central Valley.
Customers typically order a mix of materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, stone for driveways, patios, drainage, and landscape beds. Demand varies by project: contractors often buy larger volumes for construction and base work, while homeowners order smaller amounts for landscaping and repairs. Regional sourcing means color and texture can differ from photos, so expect local variations.
Start by matching material properties to the job: drainage and stability for driveways or swales, smooth finish for patios or play areas, and fill or topsoil for planting beds. Consider traffic, compaction needs, appearance, and local climate (freeze-thaw and road salt exposure). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator and talk to our team if you need help choosing between options.
Typical projects include driveway bases, resurfacing, walkways, patios, drainage swales, and raised beds. Quantity depends on area and depth; small landscaping patches may need a few tons, while a full driveway often requires several truckloads. Use our online calculator for exact estimates and allow extra material for compaction and waste.
Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Minimum orders generally start around 3 tons and deliveries are commonly made by tri-axle dump trucks. Tell us about access constraints (narrow driveways, low wires) when ordering so suppliers can match the right truck.
Pricing depends on material type, quantity, distance from local suppliers, and delivery options like next-day service or request for tailgate spreading. Hello Gravel posts clear pricing at checkout and connects you with local suppliers so you can get an exact quote. Ask for a delivery estimate in checkout or contact our team to review fees before you confirm.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and for safety reasons, but spreading is not guaranteed. You can request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess whether they can complete it upon arrival. If spreading is essential, consider hiring a local contractor or booking a spreading service separately.
In Central Valley, NY, the most reliable months for outdoor deliveries and installation are late spring through early fall when the ground is not frozen and conditions are drier. Avoid scheduling major earthwork during freeze-thaw cycles or during heavy winter salting periods, as wet and frozen soils can affect compaction and finish. Plan ahead in early spring and fall since demand and weather can change lead times.
Cold winters, freeze-thaw cycles, and potential road salt exposure favor materials with good drainage and frost resistance for driveways and swales. Clay or silty native soils may require a more stable base material to prevent heaving and poor drainage. When in doubt, choose materials designed for drainage and compaction and consult our team about local performance concerns.
Permit and local code requirements can vary by township and project size; driveway expansions, major grading, or changes to drainage sometimes require permits or inspections. Check with your local municipal office or HOA before starting large projects and tell us if you need delivery restrictions (time windows, road weight limits, or permitted access routes). We recommend getting necessary approvals before ordering large volumes.
Buying materials only is typically less expensive upfront but requires you to handle site prep, compaction, and finishing, plus equipment rental if needed. Contractors add labor, expertise, and equipment which can improve longevity and reduce mistakes, but increase total cost. If you are uncertain about grading, drainage, or compaction, talk to a contractor or our team before ordering.
Maintenance varies by material and use: surface materials often need topping or regrading every few years, while properly installed base layers can last a decade or more. Expect periodic tasks like weed control, regrading low spots, and adding fresh material after severe storms or winter heaving. Choosing the right material and proper installation reduces long-term upkeep.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
