Topsoil
High-grade soil enriched with organic matter. Perfect for landscaping, lawn establishment and repair, and for improving existing soil.
Fulfillment:
Should never be fulfilled with material that does not include an organic component, though organic components should be small.
2-10% organic is ideal
#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.
Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
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.
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.

Why Franklin Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Franklin is a small but active community with a city population of 1,410, and it sits within a much larger regional market that includes a metro area population of 2.3+ million. That modest, steady growth rate of 0.40% annually suggests steady, predictable demand for residential upgrades and local infill projects rather than a sudden construction boom. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and roughly 33.50 inches of annual rainfall in a hardiness zone 8b—creates a mix of outdoor-friendly conditions and occasional wet periods. For homeowners that means a need for well-draining bases, erosion-control measures, and UV- and weather-resistant surface materials. Landscaping and small-scale construction trends point toward practical upgrades: patio and driveway stabilization, planting beds, grading and drainage improvements, and routine maintenance—all projects that rely on reliable bulk materials like gravel, sand, soil blends, mulch, and stone. Franklin’s combination of moderate precipitation and many sunny days shapes how materials perform over time. Soils and local weather influence compaction, settling, and vegetation establishment, which makes material selection and proper installation important for long-term results. Homeowners should think in terms of drainage capacity, load-bearing bases, and mixes that resist erosion during rainy periods while tolerating sun exposure. Hello Gravel helps by connecting residents with local suppliers familiar with these conditions, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery options, and expert guidance so you can pick the right material and quantity for your property and local climate.Popular Projects in Franklin This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Franklin Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Franklin.
For driveways and walkways in Franklin choose materials that drain well and compact under traffic, such as blends of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone sourced locally. Lighter-use paths can use finer mixes while driveways need coarser, well-graded blends to resist rutting and snow plow damage. Consider appearance, maintenance needs, and how the material performs in freezing and thawing cycles when choosing a product.
Pick materials that shed water and resist becoming mushy after freeze-thaw cycles; mixes with good drainage and angular particles usually perform better. Proper base preparation and slope to direct water away are equally important for winter durability. Ask suppliers about local mixes that are proven in Franklin’s climate since regional sourcing affects performance.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth in inches, convert to cubic yards (area x depth ÷ 324) and then convert to tons using the supplier’s density guide. Our online material calculator can simplify this, but as a rule allow some extra for compaction and grading. Contact our team if you’d like help with an estimate for a driveway, patio, or grading project.
Minimum orders are generally 3 tons through our platform, and standard delivery requires 2+ business days to schedule. A next-day delivery option is available for orders placed before our cutoff, with an additional fee. Exact lead times can vary by supplier and season, so check available dates at checkout.
Some streets, private roads, or historic areas in and around Franklin may have weight limits or permit requirements for heavy trucks. Always check with Franklin town offices or your homeowners association before delivery, and let us know about tight access or bridge restrictions when you order. Suppliers may reroute or add fees if special permits or escorts are required.
Most of the zip codes around Franklin are served, but delivery availability and fees depend on the local supplier and distance from their yard. Remote or hard-to-reach locations may incur additional fees or longer lead times. Enter your zip code at checkout to see precise availability and any zone-based charges.
Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. You can request spreading at checkout, and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely on arrival. Plan for the possibility that materials may be left in a pile for you or your contractor to finish.
Because Hello Gravel sources locally, color and texture of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone can vary based on Franklin’s local geology. Expect natural variation and, if appearance is important, note preferences in the Order Notes or ask for photos from local suppliers. We can help match general color tones, but exact matches are not guaranteed.
Peak delivery months are typically spring through early fall when landscaping and construction activity is highest, so lead times may be longer then. Winter can be slower, though snow removal needs may increase demand for certain projects. Book ahead for spring projects and check our next-day option for urgent needs.
Materials that drain well and are properly installed usually require less frequent maintenance in Franklin’s freeze-thaw climate. Expect periodic regrading or top-up for high-traffic areas and more frequent touch-ups after winters with heavy snow and plowing. Lifespan varies by use and prep work: well-compacted pathways and driveways can last many years with occasional maintenance.
Some contractors include material sourcing as part of their bid while others expect homeowners to supply materials separately to control cost and quality. Clarify with your contractor whether material purchase, delivery, and spreading are included before work begins. If you’re buying materials yourself, we can coordinate delivery to your schedule and site.
Provide a clear delivery address, the best access route, any weight restrictions or low-clearance issues, preferred delivery date, and whether you want tailgate spreading requested. Mention special site details like gated driveways, overhead wires, or narrow lanes so the truck can be routed and sized appropriately. The more info you give, the smoother the delivery will be.
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.
