Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Cumberland, KY

Start with the project's purpose: load-bearing surfaces need more durable mixes, drainage areas need coarser material, and planting beds need looser fills. Because materials vary regionally, consider appearance, compaction, and budget when choosing from gravel, sand, dirt, stone as a group. Use our online material quiz or contact our team for a quick recommendation based on your project and local conditions.

Delivery radius and cost depend on supplier location, distance to the job site, and road access; rural and mountainous routes can add travel charges. Hello Gravel typically offers standard delivery in 2+ business days with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and a minimum order of 3 tons. We provide a delivery estimate at checkout so you can see any travel or access charges before you confirm.

Avoid deliveries when the ground is saturated from heavy rain or during freeze-thaw cycles, as materials may not compact or spread properly and can wash away. Late spring through early fall is often the easiest window, but mild winter days can work for some projects. Schedule delivery with a few days buffer to account for weather and to give the ground time to dry or settle before spreading or compaction.

Think about what you need: drainage performance is driven by particle size and gradation, long-term durability depends on angularity and compaction, and maintenance needs vary with material movement and settling. For areas with vehicle traffic, prioritize stability and compaction; for beds and French drains, prioritize permeability. Our team can explain trade-offs for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and suggest options that match your maintenance tolerance and performance needs.

Permit and HOA requirements vary by county and neighborhood; common triggers include driveway cuts, changes to drainage, or significant grading. Check with Cumberland city offices, White or Bell County (depending on location) or your HOA before starting work. Hello Gravel can deliver materials to your site but cannot advise on local permits; contact your local building department for rules and inspections.

Measure the area in square feet and decide on the depth in feet, then use: (area x depth) / 27 = cubic yards. Different materials have different weights; a rough rule is 1 cubic yard equals about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on material and moisture. Use our online calculator or contact our team with your area and depth and we'll give a quick estimate in tons and cubic yards.

Yes, contractors frequently place large orders; availability depends on local quarry output and hauler scheduling. For bulk or recurring needs, contact our sales team to confirm stock, set delivery windows, and arrange multiple truckloads or staged deliveries. We coordinate with local suppliers and trucking fleets to manage large jobs, but lead times may be longer in peak seasons.

Prepare a clear, level access route with overhead lines and soft ground identified; most deliveries are made by tri-axle dump trucks that need room to maneuver and turn. Designate a safe drop zone and remove obstacles like parked cars, low branches, or landscaping features; if tailgate spreading is requested, note that drivers decide if it is safe on arrival. Add delivery instructions in Order Notes and call our team if access is tight or if you need special arrangements.

For slopes, choose materials and gradations that resist washout and pair them with erosion-control measures like geotextile fabric, terraces, retaining walls, or vegetation. Using a mix designed to lock together and reduce movement helps on steep grades, while lighter materials can be used with surface stabilization methods for gentler slopes. If erosion is a concern, describe the slope and conditions to our team so we can recommend suitable material options and installation tips.

Natural materials vary by local sourcing, so color and texture can differ from photos; include color or texture preferences in Order Notes if that matters to you. Contact our customer service as soon as possible to request changes; we will try to accommodate edits before processing and will help resolve issues after delivery according to our policies. Keep photos and notes handy to speed up any follow-up.

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.
