#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
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.
Black Shredded Mulch
Rich black shredded hardwood mulch made from oak, hickory, and maple. Holds in moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your garden beds a bold look that makes green plants and colorful flowers stand out.
3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot.

Why East Lansing Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
East Lansing has a city population of 3,530 and sits within a larger metro area serving a metro area population of 2.3+ million. With a growth rate of 0.40% annually, development here is steady rather than explosive, which means homeowners and small contractors can expect consistent demand for renovation, yard upgrades, and incremental new construction rather than sudden building booms. The local climate — 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 33.50 inches in hardiness zone 8b — favors outdoor projects year-round but also creates mixed needs: materials that balance drainage and durability, soil amendments that support resilient planting, and aggregate blends that resist washout during heavy rains. Across these steady trends, quality bulk materials (gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone) matter because they influence drainage performance, planting success, and long-term maintenance burden for yards, driveways, and small foundations.Popular Projects in East Lansing This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - East Lansing Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Lansing.
Choice depends on use, appearance, and drainage needs. For vehicles and walkways, pick materials that compact well and shed water—look for angular, well-graded options and consider a compacted base layer for heavier loads. Because regional sourcing affects texture and color, expect local variations in gravel, sand, dirt, stone, and match material to the site conditions and aesthetic you want.
Prices vary by material type, quantity, distance from the supplier, and any extra services like spreading. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing when you enter your zip code and provides quotes so you can compare per-ton or per-yard rates; contact the team for a location-specific estimate. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and next-day delivery may incur an additional fee.
Freeze-thaw cycles and snowmelt increase the importance of drainage and stability. Choose materials and installation methods that resist frost heave and don't hold standing water; well-graded, angular materials and good sub-base preparation help. Expect seasonal variations in delivery timing and material handling during winter.
Spring through early fall is generally the easiest for deliveries and installations because ground is thawed and contractors are available. Winter deliveries are possible but can be slower, may require extra fees, and risk frost or snow interfering with work. Plan ahead for peak seasons and use Hello Gravel's delivery calendar to choose a convenient date.
Local suppliers usually serve nearby towns and counties to keep costs and travel time reasonable, often within a few dozen miles. Hello Gravel connects you to regional suppliers so materials reflect local geology and delivery options are shown for your zip code. If you have a remote or unusual address, request a quote to confirm availability and any travel charges.
Homeowners commonly search by project and delivery need, for example: 'bulk gravel delivery East Lansing NY', 'sand delivery by the ton near me', 'buy dirt for landscaping 14882', or 'driveway stone delivery'. Using project-focused terms like 'driveway', 'patio base', or 'drainage material' helps find the right materials and suppliers quickly. Entering your zip code on Hello Gravel will surface available materials and prices.
Permits and rules vary by municipality and HOAs, so check with your town and any neighborhood association before delivery. Deliveries that block a public street, require parking on the road, or involve heavy equipment can require permits or coordination with local authorities. Add special instructions in your order notes and contact our team if you anticipate permitting or HOA concerns.
Per-yard and per-ton pricing can change with material type, season, and supplier, so exact ranges are best provided by requesting a quote. Use Hello Gravel's price calculator and quote tools to compare cost per yard or ton for the materials you need, and remember delivery distance and quantity affect the final price. For a quick estimate, enter your zip code and project details to see current pricing in your area.
Match material characteristics to the function: pick permeable, well-draining options for drainage projects; denser, compactable blends for driveways; and visually appealing aggregates for landscaping and garden beds. Consider slope, soil type, expected traffic, and maintenance needs when choosing materials, and use Hello Gravel's material quiz or contact our team for tailored guidance. Always account for local climate—East Lansing's freeze-thaw cycles affect long-term performance.
Common challenges include narrow residential streets, limited on-site parking for dump trucks, overhead lines, tight driveways, and limited space to spread material. Measure access and identify a clear drop-off location before ordering, note any tight turns or obstacles in Order Notes, and communicate timing constraints with the supplier. Drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion, but plan for manual spreading or a contractor if full spreading is required.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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!
