Why Countryside Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Countryside is a community of 7,000 residents experiencing steady growth at 1.20% annually. That steady expansion—combined with a larger regional market of 2.6+ million people—translates into a consistent need for home improvements, infill construction, and landscaping updates rather than sudden booms. In a climate with 228 sunny days a year and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners and contractors face a mix of sun, seasonal moisture, and prolonged workable periods for outdoor projects. Those conditions make reliable bulk materials essential: well-graded gravel and sand for drainage, quality topsoil and amended dirt for planting beds, and durable mulch and stone for sun-exposed areas. Choosing the right materials up front reduces rework, improves longevity, and helps projects finish on time and on budget in Countryside27s steady-growth environment.Popular Projects in Countryside This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Countryside Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Countryside.
Homeowners and contractors in Countryside commonly order a range of bulk materials for outdoor projects, including gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar aggregates. These materials are used for driveways, base layers, drainage, raised beds and grading work. If you are unsure which combination you need, use our material calculator or contact our team for guidance.
Countryside experiences cold winters and freeze-thaw cycles that can affect drainage and long-term stability. Clay soils and poor site drainage common in parts of Illinois make well-draining mixes and proper base preparation more important, so choose materials and depths that promote runoff and compaction. Local suppliers source materials that reflect regional geology, so discuss local performance with our team before ordering.
Hello Gravel typically requires a 3-ton minimum per order and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Delivery fees vary by zip code and supplier; many areas have free delivery but check availability for your zip code. Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets, and final timing is confirmed after order processing.
Spring through early fall is the busiest season for landscaping and driveway work in Countryside, so book materials and haulers well in advance during that period. Fall is a good time for prep work and repairs, while winter deliveries are possible but can be limited due to frozen ground and weather. If you need a specific date, choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and consider the next-day option if timing is tight.
Local suppliers commonly offer lower per-ton pricing for larger orders and contractor pricing for repeat or bulk customers. Final price can vary based on regional sourcing, haul distance, and current market conditions, so request a quote for accurate numbers. We can help connect you with suppliers who serve Countryside and explain any volume or contractor discounts available.
Yes, some projects may require permits or HOA approvals that influence material choice, color, and coverage area. Check with the City of Countryside building or zoning office and any HOA documents before ordering materials for driveways, large hardscape areas, or changes to drainage patterns. If you need help, our team can point you to local resources and suggest materials that often meet common local guidelines.
Maintenance and lifespan depend on material type, installation quality, and site conditions; for example, loose surface aggregates may need topping up every few years, while properly compacted base layers last longer. Drainage, traffic levels, and winter freeze-thaw cycles affect how often repairs are needed. We recommend planning for occasional maintenance and choosing materials and installation methods that match your use and budget.
Next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST, subject to supplier and truck availability, while same-day delivery is limited and depends on local hauler schedules and stock. Availability varies by zip code and time of year, so contact us or check checkout options for real-time delivery windows. Keep in mind that delivery is by contracted dump trucks and confirmed after processing.
Contractors measure the project area in square feet, decide on the required depth in inches, and convert that volume to cubic yards before converting to tons based on material density. Using a material calculator simplifies this process and reduces waste or shortfalls. If you are unsure of measurements or material densities, our team can review your project details and help estimate quantities.
Homeowners should compare cost, drainage performance, durability under local weather, maintenance needs, and appearance when choosing materials. Also consider local availability and delivery logistics, since regional sourcing affects texture and color. If you need help weighing trade-offs, use our aggregate quiz or contact our sales team for practical recommendations tailored to Countryside conditions.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery.

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.
