Why East Moline Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
East Moline, with a city population of 57,312 and part of a metro area of 2.5+ million, is seeing steady growth of 1.20% annually — a pattern that translates into consistent demand for home improvement, yard upgrades, and small-scale construction. That population and growth mix, combined with a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 34.25 inches in hardiness zone 8b, creates a specific set of material needs. Homeowners and contractors increasingly look for reliable bulk supplies — soils and topsoil blends for planting, sand and gravel for patios and drainage, mulch and amended soils for moisture retention, and heavier aggregates for grading and driveways. In this environment, consistent material quality matters: properly graded, regionally sourced materials help manage runoff, support plantings adapted to the local hardiness, and reduce rework from settlement or erosion. Choosing the right bulk materials up front saves time and maintenance over the life of a project.Popular Projects in East Moline This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - East Moline Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Moline.
Start by matching the material's function to your project: think about load-bearing needs, drainage, and the look you want. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone each perform differently for compaction, runoff control, and maintenance—ask whether you need a stable base, a decorative finish, or good drainage. Consider East Moline's freeze-thaw cycles and occasional heavy rains when choosing materials that shed water and resist movement. Use our aggregate quiz or contact our team for a recommendation based on your site conditions.
Measure the area in feet and the desired depth to calculate cubic yards, then use our online material calculator to convert to tons for ordering. Different materials have different weights per cubic yard, so check the specific product page or ask our team to confirm quantities. Always add a 5-10% allowance for compaction, grading, or waste on uneven sites. If you're unsure, send photos and measurements and we can help with the math.
Price depends on the material type, quantity, distance from local suppliers, and any special services like next-day delivery or requested spreading. Larger orders often lower per-ton delivery costs, while small, urgent, or hard-to-access deliveries can add fees. We provide clear pricing up front and can offer a quote so you can compare options. Contact our team if you need a detailed breakdown for budgeting.
Avoid scheduling heavy material deliveries during saturated ground in spring thaw or after heavy rain to reduce tracking, rutting, and poor compaction. Late spring through early fall is typically best for grading and installation, while winter deliveries are possible but may require extra planning for snow, frozen ground, and limited spreading. Plan lead time for busy seasons and consider ordering earlier for contractor schedules. Our checkout shows available delivery dates so you can pick what works for your timeline.
Confirm truck access, turning radius, overhead lines, and driveway strength—tri-axle dump trucks are commonly used and need room to maneuver. Note any neighborhood weight limits, permit requirements, or HOA rules that could affect street unloading or blocking. Add delivery instructions and photos at checkout so drivers and suppliers can assess feasibility before dispatch. Tailgate spreading may be possible but is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed.
Permit rules vary by location; some streets or public right-of-ways may require city or county permits for blocking traffic or heavy truck access. Check with the City of East Moline or your homeowner association before ordering if you plan to dump on or across public property. If a permit is needed, schedule delivery after you secure approvals and add notes in your order so drivers are aware. When in doubt, contact our team and we can point you toward local resources.
Compare how materials perform for your key needs: stability for driveways, drainage for beds, and appearance for decorative areas. Durability and maintenance differ—some materials compact well and require little upkeep, while others shift and need periodic topping. Consider lifecycle costs, not just upfront price: a low-cost product may need more frequent replenishing. Ask about local examples in East Moline to see real-world performance in a similar climate.
East Moline experiences freeze-thaw cycles and variable rainfall, so choose materials that allow drainage and resist frost heave for surfaces and bases. Heavy clay or poorly draining soils may need a granular base or improved subgrade before placing final materials. Regional sourcing means color and texture will reflect local geology, which can affect aesthetics and compaction. If you have drainage or erosion concerns, mention them when ordering so we can recommend suitable aggregates and installation tips.
Coordinate delivery dates with your contractor and allow buffer time for weather or site prep; standard delivery requires 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Share exact drop location, access photos, and contractor contact info at checkout to streamline arrival and unloading. Larger or staged projects may benefit from multiple smaller deliveries scheduled to match installation phases. Confirm quantities and any spreading needs ahead of time to avoid delays.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers in the Quad Cities to provide regionally sourced materials that reflect local geology. Check availability by entering your East Moline zip code at checkout—minimum orders start at 3 tons and delivery is typically by tri-axle dump truck. We manage the coordination, pricing, and delivery scheduling so you get transparent quotes and a single point of contact. If your address has special access needs, add details during checkout so we can plan appropriately.
Plan for grading, compaction, and occasional topping up depending on the material and use; driveways and paths often need light maintenance after the first winter. For erosion-prone areas, add edging, fabric, or stabilization measures to retain materials through heavy rain and freeze-thaw cycles. Keep photos and notes from delivery in case you need to contact customer service about quantity or quality issues. Routine inspections after storms help catch displacement early and reduce repair costs.
Contact our team as soon as possible to request changes or cancellations—modifications are easier before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate schedule changes, quantity adjustments, or delivery location updates, but not all changes are possible once trucks are en route. If you need an urgent change, call the sales team for fastest help and include your order number. Refer to our order policy for details on refunds and timing.
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.
