Why New Hartford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
New Hartford is a compact but active community (city population: 7,000) positioned within a larger regional market (metro area population: 2.6+ million). A steady growth rate of 1.20% annually points to ongoing home improvement and infill construction rather than a boom-and-bust cycle, which translates into consistent demand for landscaping and site-prep materials. With 228/year sunny days and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall in a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners and contractors need materials that balance drainage, erosion control, and durability under variable wet-dry cycles. That means selecting the right mixes of base material, topsoil, sand, and decorative cover for driveways, planting beds, patios, and drainage swales. In this environment, accessible, regionally sourced bulk supplies save time and reduce the risk of project delays while helping properties handle seasonal runoff and long sunny stretches without frequent replacement.Popular Projects in New Hartford This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - New Hartford Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in New Hartford.
Choose materials based on use, appearance, and drainage needs rather than a single 'best' option. For most projects, homeowners pick from gravel, sand, dirt, and stone mixes that balance compaction, drainage, and aesthetics. Low-traffic walkways can use finer materials for a smooth finish, while driveways typically require coarser, well-graded mixes for load-bearing and drainage.
West Illinois weather with freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal rain can cause shifting, rutting, or washout if materials or drainage are not appropriate. Choose aggregates that drain well and compact steadily, and plan for adequate slope and sub-base to move water away from surfaces. Expect some seasonal maintenance like topping off ruts or regrading after heavy freeze-thaw seasons.
Standard deliveries typically require 2+ business days for scheduling, and next-day delivery is often available if you order before the cutoff (usually before noon CST) for an extra fee. Hello Gravel offers dump truck delivery with a minimum order of 3 tons; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but spreading is not guaranteed. You can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout and will receive confirmation with estimated timing.
Measure the area (length x width) and desired depth, convert cubic feet to cubic yards (divide cubic feet by 27), and then convert cubic yards to tons using a material-specific factor—many common aggregates roughly translate to 1.2–1.4 tons per cubic yard. Hello Gravel’s online material calculator and sales team can help refine those numbers for your project and specific material choice. When in doubt, add a 5–10% buffer for compaction and settling.
Prices can fluctuate seasonally due to demand, fuel costs, and supplier availability; spring and summer are often busier for landscaping and construction projects. Scheduling outside peak season can yield better availability and sometimes lower delivery fees. For time-sensitive work, book your material early and consider next-day delivery options if needed.
Local rules vary, so check with New Hartford’s city or county building and zoning department before bringing large quantities of fill or changing grades on your property. Permits may be required for significant grading, altering drainage patterns, or work near public right-of-way. If you work with a contractor, they can often advise on permits and local code requirements.
Poor slope and inadequate drainage are the main causes of material failure; ensure surfaces are graded to shed water away from structures and toward approved drains or swales. Use permeable aggregates that allow water to pass through when appropriate, and consider a compacted sub-base for driveways to prevent rutting. Addressing drainage first will extend the life of any material you choose.
Many suppliers and local contractors offer spreading, grading, and compaction as separate services, but delivery providers usually focus on getting materials to the site. Hello Gravel coordinates with local haulers for drop-off delivery; some drivers may assist with tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed. If you need installation, request a contractor or installation service when ordering or ask our team to recommend local pros.
Recycled and specialty aggregates are often available through regional suppliers and can be a cost-effective, sustainable option depending on your project. Prices vary by availability and material type—recycled mixes are sometimes cheaper than virgin aggregates but quality and consistency can vary. Ask for material specifications and photos, and be prepared for regional color or texture differences due to local sourcing.
Prices depend on material type, site access, and truckload size, but delivered bulk rates in the West Illinois area commonly fall within a broad range depending on market conditions. A rough ballpark for delivered aggregates might be tens of dollars per ton to higher depending on specialty materials and delivery distance; exact pricing is available through the Hello Gravel quote tool. For accurate comparison, get a quote that includes delivery, minimum order requirements, and any access fees.
Provide clear site access details, preferred delivery date, and a contact phone number when requesting a quote so suppliers can price and plan accurately. Use photos or notes about obstacles like low branches, narrow drives, or slope changes, and confirm your desired drop location during checkout. Contact Hello Gravel as early as possible for changes; modifications are easier before the order is dispatched and our team can help coordinate with the hauling partner.
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.
