Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Coden, AL

Select materials based on the project function: choose something that compacts well for driveways, and more permeable for drainage areas. Consider local conditions in Coden — coastal soils and occasional heavy rain make good drainage and stable base layers important. Use our calculator or contact our team for guidance on which mix of gravel, sand, dirt, stone will work best.

Yes. Salt spray, high humidity, and occasional storm runoff can affect longevity and appearance, so choose materials and placement with drainage and corrosion resistance in mind. For shoreline or low-lying areas consider heavier, angular materials and proper drainage layers. Regional sourcing means color and texture may vary from photos.

Measure the area in feet (length x width) and depth in inches, then convert: (length x width x depth inches) / 324 = cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by the material-specific weight to get tons, or use our online material calculator for a faster estimate. If you’re unsure, provide measurements and we can help verify quantities before you order.

Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days; next-day delivery is offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks, usually tri-axle. Request a delivery date at checkout and add notes for preferred access or placement.

Ensure a clear, level area for offloading with enough turning room and overhead clearance for a dump truck; narrow or steep driveways may require an alternate drop-off location. Mark the desired drop zone and remove vehicles or obstacles before arrival. If access is limited, let us know so we can coordinate with the driver on a safe drop-off plan.

Pricing usually reflects the material type, quantity, and delivery distance, so costs are quoted per ton or per cubic yard and may include a delivery fee. Regional sourcing and local supplier rates can affect price, and minimum orders apply. Get an exact quote through our site by entering your zip code and project details.

Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; changes are easier to accommodate before the order is processed and dispatched. We will make a best-effort to accommodate requests, but modifications are not guaranteed once the supplier or truck is scheduled. Check your confirmation for next steps and timing.

Yes — many projects perform best with layered systems, such as a compactable base layer topped with a finer finish layer, and geotextile fabric between incompatible soils. Mixing materials should be done with purpose: base materials for stability, finer materials for surface finish, and sand for leveling in some applications. If you’re unsure, our team can suggest combinations that suit Coden’s soils and drainage needs.

Address slope and water flow first by adding drainage channels, proper grading, and permeable materials where appropriate to slow runoff. Heavier, angular aggregates and geotextile fabric can help stabilize slopes, and vegetation or retaining structures provide long-term control. Consider local tides and stormwater paths when planning placement of gravel, sand, dirt, stone.

Clear the drop area of vehicles, tools, and low-hanging branches, and mark utilities or sensitive areas to avoid. Provide a firm, level staging area for the truck and ensure adequate access for a tri-axle dump truck. Keep people and pets away during offloading and communicate any special instructions in your order notes.

Because we source materials regionally, texture and coloration reflect local geology and can vary from images; natural materials are not exact matches. You can add color or texture preferences in Order Notes, and we will try to match your request when possible. If appearance is critical, request a small sample or contact our team for options before ordering.

Contractors should plan deliveries around site access, staging space, and project sequencing, and may request multiple drops for large jobs. Same-day delivery is sometimes available but depends on local supplier capacity and truck availability, so book early for tight timelines. Share detailed site instructions and coordinate timing with crews to minimize re handling.

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.
