Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Prestonsburg, KY

Prestonsburg experiences seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and moderate to heavy rainfall that can affect settling and drainage. Choose materials and base preparation that handle wet conditions and freezing (proper compaction and a stable base), and expect some seasonal movement in loose materials. Regional sourcing means texture and color may vary, so plan for local variation when matching existing surfaces.

Hello Gravel serves Prestonsburg and surrounding West Kentucky zip codes, but availability depends on your exact zip code so check before ordering. Our minimum order is 3 tons, standard delivery takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks, and you can pick a preferred delivery date during checkout.

Narrow driveways, low-hanging wires, steep grades, or long farm access roads can require special trucks or extra time and may increase costs or require a different drop location. Tell us about site conditions in the Order Notes and we will coordinate with the supplier and driver to plan a safe drop. For rural or hard-to-reach sites, allow extra lead time to confirm equipment and routing.

The best window for most projects is late spring through early fall when ground is drier and crews can compact and finish work efficiently. Avoid heavy rain seasons and freezing periods when materials are harder to place and compact. If you need winter or early-spring delivery, expect possible delays and extra coordination.

Local permits, HOA rules, or road-weight limits can affect deliveries and placement, especially in historic or residential neighborhoods and on weight-restricted county roads. Check with your HOA and local authorities for any permit requirements and let us know about weight or access restrictions when ordering. We will coordinate with local haulers but customers are responsible for confirming permits and access restrictions ahead of delivery.

For drainage and slope control, choose materials and installation approaches that promote water movement away from structures and reduce erosion; that often means a well-graded base, proper compaction, and using coarser aggregates in drainage paths. Combining appropriate material selection with grading, French drains, or geotextile underlayment helps stabilize slopes in rainy and freeze-thaw conditions common to the area. Consult with a contractor for steep or erosion-prone sites to design the right solution.

Match material performance to the project: prioritize load-bearing stability for driveways, a smooth finish for patios, and permeability for landscaped areas. Use the material calculator and aggregate quiz on our site to estimate quantities and guide selection, and consider local color and texture variations from regional sources. If in doubt, request guidance from our sales team and describe the intended use and existing site conditions.

As a rule of thumb, a 3- to 4-inch cover over a 10x10 foot area will require roughly 1 to 1.5 tons per 100 square feet depending on material density. Site prep usually includes clearing, basic grading, and a compacted base for load-bearing areas; contractors often provide compaction and finishing services after delivery. For accurate quantities use our online calculator or contact our team with dimensions and desired depth.

Because we source regionally, gravel, sand, dirt, and stone delivered in Prestonsburg will reflect the local geology and may vary in color and texture. We describe material characteristics on the product page and encourage customers to note color preferences in Order Notes, but exact matches to pictures are not guaranteed. If you have concerns after delivery contact customer service and we will work to resolve the issue.

There are local contractors and landscapers in the Prestonsburg area, though availability can vary by season and project size, so it is best to schedule trades early. Hello Gravel can help with material delivery but does not perform installation; ask our team for recommendations or coordinate directly with local contractors for prep and compaction. For larger jobs, allow extra lead time to align delivery and contractor schedules.

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.
