Why Troy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Troy has a population of 15,210, and its steady 1.20% annual growth points to consistent demand for both homeowner improvements and local construction projects. That measured growth, combined with a regional metro area of 2.6+ million residents, means ongoing investments in housing and infrastructure that translate into predictable needs for bulk materials. With 228 sunny days per year, a hardiness zone of 8b, and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, local climate drives choices toward durable, well-draining bases, reliable topsoils for plantings, and UV-resistant organic products. Homeowners are increasingly tackling projects like driveways, patios, raised beds, and drainage upgrades, so access to quality bulk supplies—gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone—matters for longevity, performance, and year-round usability. Troy’s climate and weather patterns create practical requirements for material performance: plenty of sun increases UV exposure for organic mulches and surface materials, while 35.50 inches of annual rainfall means materials must support good drainage and resist erosion during heavy storms. Soil and site conditions affect compaction, load-bearing needs, and plant establishment, so homeowners should match material gradation and texture to those conditions. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you to local suppliers who source regionally appropriate materials, offering quantity calculators and delivery scheduling so you get the right amount, at the right time, for Troy’s specific conditions.Popular Projects in Troy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Troy Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Troy.
Homeowners and contractors in Troy commonly choose from a range of aggregates including gravel, sand, dirt, and stone. Selection depends on the project: drainage and load-bearing projects usually use coarser, angular materials, while garden beds or pathways may use finer materials for appearance and ease of planting. Consider local availability, desired look, and maintenance needs when choosing material.
Troy experiences cold winters with freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal rain, so pick materials and installation methods that drain well and resist heaving. Angular, well-graded aggregates compact better and reduce movement, while finer, loose materials can wash or shift during heavy rains. For long-term performance, pair the right material with proper base preparation and drainage.
Late spring through early fall is usually best for most outdoor projects in Troy because ground conditions are more stable and deliveries are less likely to be delayed by snow or frozen ground. Winter deliveries can be possible but may be slower or limited by access and hauling restrictions. Order early and book a delivery date through checkout; standard delivery is 2+ business days and next-day is available for orders placed before noon CST with an added fee.
Pros often estimate in cubic yards for volume and convert to tons based on material density, while homeowners may measure square feet and depth then use a calculator to get cubic yards. Material density varies by type and moisture, so quantities can change; we recommend using Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contacting our team for a quick estimate. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so factor that into small projects.
Delivery rules vary by local supplier and hauler, but Hello Gravel generally requires a minimum order of 3 tons and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days. Many areas have free delivery, while next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Exact zones, fees, and access requirements depend on the supplier serving your zip code (check 62294 and surrounding zips at checkout).
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and you can request it at checkout, but this service is not guaranteed. The driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival and may decline if conditions are unsafe or equipment limits prevent spreading. Plan for that possibility and consider hiring local labor if precise spreading is required.
No — because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, color, texture, and particle size can vary with local geology. Photos are representative; if color or size is important to your project, note preferences in the Order Notes and contact our team for guidance before ordering. If something seems off on delivery, contact customer service promptly so we can work to resolve it.
Local rules and HOA guidelines can affect material choice, permeability, setbacks, and curb access for driveways and large projects. Check with Troy city offices, Madison County, or your HOA before ordering to confirm any restrictions or permit requirements. If you need help understanding typical considerations, our team can point you to common local requirements but cannot obtain permits on your behalf.
Price depends on the material type, local supply, hauling distance, seasonal demand, and the quantity you order. Bulk pricing tends to improve with larger orders because hauling costs are a big factor, and remote delivery locations or tight access can add fees. Get an instant quote on our site for an accurate price for your material, date, and Troy zip code.
Clear the planned drop area of vehicles, low branches, and fragile landscaping, and mark the exact location for the driver. Ensure there is enough room and stable ground for a dump truck to access the site and that any street or neighborhood parking rules are addressed. If access looks tight, add notes at checkout and be available to guide the driver on arrival.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible — order changes are easiest to handle before the supplier has been dispatched and we will do our best to accommodate requests. For issues with delivered material or service, contact customer service promptly so we can review the situation and work toward a resolution consistent with our policies. Refer to our online order and issue guidance for next steps and documentation requests.
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.

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.

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.
