#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.
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.
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.
Fill Dirt
Versatile, lower-grade soil commonly used for volume and elevation changes in various construction and landscaping projects. Great for leveling or grading ground, backfilling pools and filling ditches, and evening out low points or depressions on your property.

Why Mendon Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mendon (population 1,660) sits inside a broader West Illinois region with a metro area population of 2.6+ million, and its steady 1.20% annual growth points to consistent demand for home improvements, yard upgrades, and small-scale construction projects. That steady rather than explosive growth means homeowners can expect reliable access to local contractors and suppliers while projects are scheduled throughout the year. Mendon’s climate — hardiness zone 8b with roughly 228 sunny days and 35.50 inches of rain annually — supports year-round outdoor work but also creates clear material priorities: good drainage solutions for moderate rainfall, UV- and color-stable surface materials for high sun exposure, and durable base mixes that compact well across seasons. Homeowners tackling driveways, grading, planting beds, or drainage improvements will benefit from quality bulk materials that match local geology and reduce long-term maintenance.Popular Projects in Mendon This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mendon Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mendon.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers that serve the Mendon (62351) area rather than sourcing from a single quarry. Material availability and appearance reflect local geology, so check your zip code on our site to see nearby suppliers and product options.
Our platform requires a minimum order of 3 tons and uses professional dump truck fleets for delivery, typically tri-axle trucks. Standard delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; distance and access can affect timing and any additional charges.
Local soils and drainage influence whether you pick a more free-draining aggregate or a finer material for top dressing; poorly drained sites often need added base, underdrains, or geotextile to prevent settling. Consider the intended use (driveway, path, planting beds) and ask our team for guidance so you choose a material that matches local drainage and load requirements.
Avoid heavy site work during wet springs and freeze-thaw cycles when ground conditions can cause rutting and settlement; late spring through early fall is usually best for installing base and surfacing materials. Plan earlier in the season for larger projects because contractor availability and supplier lead times tighten during peak months.
Permit and setback rules vary by city, township, and HOA, so check with Mendon city hall, Adams County offices, or your HOA before starting work. If you need guidance, collect basic project details and our team can remind you to confirm local regulations before scheduling delivery.
Contractor schedules in the West Illinois area vary with season and project size; small jobs may be scheduled within a week while larger installs can take several weeks to coordinate. Factor in material delivery lead times, weather delays, and permit approvals when planning your start date.
Contractors typically recommend removing soft topsoil, installing a compacted base with proper depth, adding geotextile where needed, and providing good edge restraint and slope for drainage. For typical residential projects, base depths often range from a few inches for walkways to greater depths for driveways, but exact thickness depends on expected loads and local conditions.
Material and labor costs vary by supplier, distance, and project complexity; Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing for local materials and includes a material calculator to estimate quantities. For labor comparisons, get a few contractor quotes, and remember that rural delivery distances or difficult access can increase overall cost.
Yes, many suppliers and haulers in our network deliver to rural properties, but long driveways, soft fields, narrow gates, or weight-restricted roads can affect whether a full truck can reach the drop point. Note access details in your order notes and expect possible additional fees or a request for an alternate drop location.
Hiring a contractor brings experience, equipment, and speed for complex or load-bearing projects, while DIY can save money on labor for small, simple jobs if you have the right tools and time. We recommend weighing the value of professional compaction, grading, and drainage work against DIY savings and getting quotes so you can compare total installed costs.
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. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
