Why South Roxana Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
South Roxana has a population of 2,650 and sits within a broader West Illinois region that supports growing residential and commercial activity. A steady annual growth rate of 1.20% means construction and landscaping demand is moderate but persistent—homeowners should expect regular maintenance and incremental new projects rather than a sudden building boom. With 228 sunny days and moderate annual rainfall of 35.50 inches in hardiness zone 8b, local weather supports much of the year for outdoor work, but it also creates clear material needs: durable base materials for driveways and walkways, well-draining mixes for beds and backfill, stable soils and topdressing for lawns, and erosion-control options where runoff concentrates. Regional sourcing often means aggregates and soils will reflect local geology, so choosing the right mix of materials matters for long-term performance and visual consistency across projects.Popular Projects in South Roxana This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - South Roxana Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in South Roxana.
Start with the project's purpose: load-bearing surfaces need stable aggregates, while planting beds or play areas need softer materials. Consider drainage, desired appearance, maintenance, and budget, and remember that locally sourced gravel, sand, dirt, stone can vary in color and texture. If you are unsure, use an online material calculator or contact our team for guidance based on your site conditions.
Standard delivery is generally available in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery often offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Same-day service is not guaranteed and depends on supplier and truck availability. You can choose a preferred delivery date at checkout and should provide clear access instructions to avoid delays.
Freeze-thaw cycles and wet springs can make fine materials and loose dirt prone to rutting and compaction, so materials that provide good drainage and stability are often preferred for driveways and high-traffic areas. Schedule major installs for late spring through early fall when ground conditions are drier and more stable. Also factor in that some materials are harder to compact or spread in freezing or very wet conditions.
Permit and zoning requirements vary by municipality and by project size, so check with South Roxana city hall or the county building department before starting work. Driveway changes, culvert work, or increases in impervious surface sometimes require permits or inspections, and neighborhood associations may have their own rules. When in doubt, contact local authorities early to avoid delays.
Fine materials and loose dirt tend to shift, wash out, and form ruts more quickly in freeze-thaw conditions, requiring more frequent grading and refilling. Coarser, angular materials typically hold shape better but still need occasional topping and edging. Regular maintenance like regrading, adding a fresh layer, and checking drainage will prolong any surface's life.
Smaller deliveries and simple spreads can be completed in a day once materials arrive, while full driveway installs or large landscaping jobs often take several days to a few weeks depending on site prep, weather, and contractor schedules. Allow extra time in spring and fall when weather is less predictable. Always confirm a timeline with your contractor and factor in lead times for material delivery.
Clay-heavy or poorly draining soils common in parts of Illinois often require a stable base, geotextile fabric, or additional drainage solutions before placing surface materials. Proper grading and drainage prevent standing water that can undermine surfaces, so materials are recommended based on both load and water management needs. Share soil and slope conditions with suppliers so they can recommend appropriate mixes and prep steps.
Ask about the exact material description and sizing, estimated tonnage or cubic yards for your area and depth, delivery method, lead time, and any delivery fees. Tell them about access limitations, drop-off location, and whether you need tailgate spreading so they can account for truck size and crew needs. Also ask about regional variations, sample availability, and how returns or overages are handled.
Expect potential issues like narrow roads, low-hanging wires, tight driveways, weight-restricted streets, and limited space to stage a dump. Mark a clear drop zone, remove cars or obstacles, and communicate gate codes or access points ahead of delivery. If access is limited, suppliers may need smaller trucks or additional time, which can affect pricing and scheduling.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area and use an online calculator or conversion guide to translate those dimensions into cubic yards or tons. Depth needs vary by project: base layers require more material than a surface dressing, and compaction reduces apparent volume. When in doubt, order a little extra or contact our team with your measurements and project type for a tailored estimate.
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.
