Why New Man Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
New Man's city population of 5,733 sits inside a growing metro area of 2.6+ million, and the area's steady 1.20% annual growth translates into a consistent uptick in residential builds, driveway upgrades, and neighborhood infrastructure work. In a place with hardiness zone 8b, 228 sunny days per year, and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners and contractors need materials that perform in both sunny, dry stretches and moderate rain events. That means reliable base materials for driveways and patios, blends that support plant establishment, mulch and topsoil that retain moisture without causing compaction, and drainage solutions that handle periodic runoff. As lots are developed and landscapes are refreshed, demand rises for a range of bulk supplies—gravel, sand, dirt, stone, and mulch—chosen to balance durability, appearance, and water management for local conditions. Local climate and soil tendencies affect how materials age and perform: more sun increases UV exposure and drying, while moderate rainfall can lead to episodic erosion or ponding if surfaces are poorly graded. Those conditions favor materials that drain well, resist breakdown under intermittent wet-dry cycles, and support healthy plant growth when combined with proper soil amendments. For homeowners, that means selecting aggregates and soils for function as much as looks—porous mixes for water infiltration, firmer bases where equipment will run, and organic-rich topsoil for gardens. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers who understand regional geology, offering quantity calculators and delivery scheduling so you get the right material, in the right amount, at the right time for New Man projects.Popular Projects in New Man This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - New Man Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in New Man.
Start by thinking about use, drainage, and appearance: high-traffic areas need more stable, well-draining materials, while garden beds prioritize weed control and water retention. Consider local climate and site slope, then pick a material that balances durability and look. Materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, stone come in different sizes and textures; use our material quiz or contact our team for guidance based on your project and budget.
Freeze-thaw cycles and wet springs in West Illinois can cause shifting and settling if a material does not drain or compact well. Choose materials and installation methods that promote drainage and resist frost heave, and avoid placing loose materials directly on frozen or saturated soil. Expect regional variations in texture and color because suppliers source locally.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide on a depth, then calculate volume (cubic feet or yards) and add 5 to 10 percent for waste and settling. Convert volume to tons using our online calculator since tonnage per cubic yard varies by material and local geology. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and our calculator can help you get an accurate estimate.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. You can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout and we will connect you with a local supplier and hauler. Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks operated by contracted carriers, and availability can vary by zip code.
Drivers need clear truck access, firm ground, and room to maneuver and dump safely; check for low branches, overhead lines, narrow gates, and soft turf that could be damaged. If access is tight, consider staging the drop in an approved area or asking us for tips before delivery. Photos of the delivery area help our team plan and reduce delays.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site conditions. You can request spreading when you place the order; the driver will assess whether it can be done safely upon arrival. For consistent spreading, consider hiring a local contractor or arranging for spreading in advance.
Delivery costs vary by distance, load size, and local carrier rates; many areas offer free delivery for standard orders, while remote drops or small loads may incur a fee. Next-day delivery and special access requirements usually add extra charges. We show transparent pricing at checkout so you can see any delivery fees before you confirm your order.
Spring through early fall is usually best because the ground is easier to work and materials compact properly in moderate temperatures. Avoid installing on frozen or saturated ground to reduce settling and frost-related issues. Plan around rainy season and allow time for proper compaction and curing if your project needs it.
Permits and HOA rules vary by municipality and neighborhood; you should check with New Man city offices and your HOA before starting. Common concerns include driveway width, setbacks, and stormwater runoff or impervious surface limits. If you need help, our team can suggest what information contractors typically include on permit plans.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture, color, and grading can differ from photos and samples. These natural variations affect appearance and sometimes performance, so order a small test load or request notes about color preferences at checkout. Contact customer service if the delivered material differs significantly from what you expected.
Most materials require occasional regrading, topping up, and weed control; driveways may need periodic compaction or additional material after freeze-thaw cycles. Good drainage and proper installation reduce maintenance needs over time. Regular inspections after heavy rain or winter can help you spot erosion or settling early.
Provide project dimensions (length, width, desired depth), the material group you prefer (gravel, sand, dirt, stone), any access constraints, and your preferred delivery date. Photos of the site and clear notes about spreading or staging will speed up accurate quotes. Including contact info and a zip code helps us match you with the right local supplier and truck.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
