Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Miami, IN

Choose a material based on load, drainage, and appearance rather than a single 'best' option. For driveways and paths you’ll pick from gravel, sand, dirt, stone depending on how much traffic the surface will get, how well it must drain, and how much maintenance you want. Consider a firmer, well-graded aggregate for vehicle areas and looser materials for planting beds or playgrounds, and factor in local climate and aesthetics when deciding.

Hello Gravel generally requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Many zip codes have free delivery, but fees can apply for long-distance hauls, small loads, tight access, or special handling; check your zip code on checkout for exact pricing. Contact our team if you need a custom delivery window or an estimate for a large project.

Miami, Indiana's freeze-thaw cycles and wetter months can affect compaction, settling, and drainage, so choose materials and depths that tolerate frost and allow water to drain. Install heavier-use surfaces in late spring through early fall when the ground is stable and avoid spreading material on frozen or waterlogged ground. Plan for some settling after delivery and allow time for regrading or additional material if needed in the spring.

Order size varies by project: small garden beds or pathways often use 1 to 5 tons, a single-car driveway typically needs 8 to 15 tons depending on depth and base, and larger driveways or full-yard landscaping can exceed 20 tons. Yardage and tonnage vary by material density and desired depth, so use our material calculator or contact our sales team with project dimensions for a tailored estimate. It is common to order a little extra to allow for compaction and grading.

Yes, many property rules can affect material choice: check Miami city codes and any HOA covenants for regulations on dust control, visible surface materials, setback and driveway repairs, impervious surface limits, and drainage requirements. Some HOAs prefer specific colors or forbid loose materials in front yards, and the city may require permits for major driveway changes or grading. Always confirm with your HOA and the city before ordering so you meet local rules and avoid unnecessary returns or rework.

Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle), so you need a clear, stable access route and sufficient overhead clearance for safe dumping. Mark your desired drop zone and remove obstacles like low branches, parked cars, or lawn furniture; if access is limited, delivery may need to be placed on the street or a closer accessible spot. Tailgate spreading can be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver's discretion for safety and is not guaranteed.

Match the material to the function: choose materials that promote drainage for wet areas, denser aggregates for vehicle traffic, and finer materials for top dressing or planting beds. Consider appearance, maintenance, and budget—gravel, sand, dirt, stone each serve different roles—and ask our team for examples based on similar local projects in Miami.

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.
