Materials Available for Delivery
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
River Rock
Naturally rounded, decorative stone for landscaping, garden beds, and water features. Typically 1-2” in size, with options for larger sizes upon request. Comes in a variety of colors that vary based on location and natural stone availability, so please be sure to specify if you have color preferences.
1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Alexander Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Alexander is a community of 1,550 residents, and its 0.40% annual growth rate points to steady, incremental demand for home improvements and small-scale infrastructure rather than a construction boom. With 228 sunny days per year and 33.50 inches of annual rainfall, and located in hardiness zone 8b, local projects require materials that balance drainage, durability, and aesthetic value. Homeowners are increasingly investing in outdoor living spaces, erosion control, garden beds, and driveway repairs—trends that drive demand for a range of bulk supplies such as topsoil, sand, gravel, and stone. In the context of the broader metro area (metro population: 2.3+ million), contractors and suppliers can meet those needs by offering regionally sourced aggregates, clear pricing, and scheduled delivery to match steady, predictable project volumes.Popular Projects in Alexander This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Alexander Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Alexander.
Start with the job: consider load, drainage, appearance, and how much maintenance you want. Different projects benefit from different characteristics, and regional sourcing means local gravel, sand, dirt, stone may vary in texture and color. Use our material calculator and quiz to compare options and call our team for recommendations based on your site and budget.
Price depends on the amount ordered, delivery distance, current local supplier rates, and seasonal demand. Our minimum order is 3 tons and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Ask for a quote to see a clear price that includes delivery and any optional services.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide on a depth, then convert that volume to tons using our online calculator or the guidance in checkout. Typical depth ranges are 2–4 inches for walkways and 4–8 inches for driveways, but your project and soil conditions may change that. If you’re unsure, contact our team with project dimensions and we’ll help estimate amounts.
Yes. Alexander’s cold winters and freeze-thaw cycles, plus spring runoff, can affect settling, drainage, and compaction. Choose materials and installation depths that improve drainage and resist frost heave, and plan deliveries around extreme wet or frozen conditions. Our local suppliers can advise on materials that perform well in the West New York area.
Standard delivery requires 2+ business days and there’s a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST with an added fee. Materials are delivered by contracted dump truck fleets (typically tri-axle trucks) and our checkout calendar lets you choose a preferred date. Regional sourcing and access can affect timing, so confirm details at checkout.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request the service at checkout and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely on arrival. This service is not guaranteed, so plan for the possibility you’ll need to spread or hire local labor. Always note any special access limitations in Order Notes.
Because we source locally, texture, color, and particle size can vary from photos and between deliveries. Materials listed as gravel, sand, dirt, stone reflect general types and typical uses, but natural variation is expected. If color or texture is important, add preferences in Order Notes and contact customer service before ordering.
Clear a suitable drop area and accessible approach for a tri-axle dump truck, remove obstacles, and mark the exact dump location where you want the pile. Protect lawns, plants, and hardscapes as needed, and call 811 to locate underground utilities before digging or extensive spreading. If you have tight access, note dimensions and restrictions when ordering so suppliers can plan accordingly.
Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest to make before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests but cannot guarantee all changes, especially after trucks are scheduled. Review order notes and confirm details at checkout to reduce the need for later edits.
Contractors should plan for multiple deliveries, staging areas, and timing to match project phases; bulk pricing and scheduling can be discussed with our sales team. Confirm zip code availability, material specs, and truck access ahead of time, and provide any permit or site instructions when you place the order. For large or recurring jobs, contact our sales line to coordinate dedicated scheduling and logistics.
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.

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.
