Why Alexandria Bay Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Alexandria Bay (city population: 1,520) is seeing modest, steady demand for home improvement and small-scale construction projects as its population growth (growth rate: 0.40% annually) keeps development measured rather than explosive. That steady expansion, together with the wider region's role in a metro area (metro area population: 2.3+ million) means homeowners often prioritize durable, low-maintenance solutions over large speculative builds. Local climate plays a practical role: with about 228 sunny days per year (sunny days: 228/year) and annual rainfall near 33.50 inches (annual rainfall: 33.50 inches), projects must balance good drainage with moisture retention. In this environment, quality bulk materials — gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone — support common homeowner needs like improved drainage, erosion control, permeable driveways, patios, and raised planting beds. Reliable regional sourcing matters because material texture and grading affect how installations perform under local weather and soil conditions.Popular Projects in Alexandria Bay This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Alexandria Bay Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Alexandria Bay.
Homeowners and contractors in Alexandria Bay often order bulk materials for driveways, walkways, shoreline repairs, raised beds, and drainage projects. Common needs include aggregates used for grading and leveling, organic topsoil mixes for planting, and materials for erosion control. Hello Gravel offers gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates sourced from local suppliers to match regional conditions.
Alexandria Bay experiences cold winters, lake-effect snow, and freeze-thaw cycles that affect settling and drainage. Choose materials that drain well and resist frost heave for structural work, and use stable, erosion-resistant options near shorelines. Because materials are regionally sourced, appearance and texture may vary from photos.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST with an additional fee. Minimum orders start at 3 tons, and remote or seasonal access can increase lead time or delivery cost. Always check your zip code at checkout and confirm delivery windows when placing an order.
Limited access can change the truck type and offloading method required; some jobs may need smaller trucks, hand offloading, or barge service for islands and docks. These special arrangements can add coordination time and extra fees, so provide clear access notes and photos at checkout. Our team will work with local haulers to find the safest delivery approach.
Late spring through early fall is generally the best window for most outdoor deliveries and installations, when roads are clear and ground conditions are stable. Avoid deliveries during heavy snow, freeze-thaw periods, or spring thaw when mud and soft ground make placement difficult. For shoreline projects, check seasonal restrictions that may limit work during fish spawning or protected periods.
Shoreline work, large fill projects, and work near wetlands often require local or state permits, and New York state or town rules may apply. Check with Alexandria Bay town offices and the NY Department of Environmental Conservation before starting work. Hello Gravel can help plan deliveries but does not obtain permits; obtain approvals before ordering to avoid delays.
Suppliers typically price materials by the ton or by the cubic yard, with the final cost influenced by material type, distance from the source, and seasonal demand. Delivery charges, access fees, and minimum order requirements can affect the total price. Request an itemized quote so you can compare material cost, delivery, and any additional services.
Match the material to the job: prioritize drainage and compaction for driveways and base layers, choose erosion-resistant options for shoreline stabilizing, and opt for organic-rich mixes for planting areas. Consider load-bearing needs, maintenance expectations, and local climate. Use our online material calculator and aggregate quiz or contact our sales team for personalized recommendations.
Ask about minimum order size, delivery method and truck size, lead time, placement or spreading options, and how material appearance may vary. Clarify any access challenges and whether the driver can do tailgate spreading (at their discretion). Also confirm payment methods, cancellation/change policies, and who to contact if an issue arises.
Contractors often use local quarries and regional suppliers for regular work, balancing cost, material specs, and reliable delivery. Hello Gravel connects contractors with local suppliers and haulers, streamlining ordering, scheduling, and transport so crews can focus on the job. For large or recurring projects, discuss volume pricing and preferred delivery windows upfront.
Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion and if it can be done safely, but this service is not guaranteed. If you need precise grading or finished spreading, plan to have tools or a hired crew ready after delivery. Note any preferred drop location and obstructions in your order notes to help the driver plan placement.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. 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. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
