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.
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. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
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.

Why Lido Beach Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lido Beach homeowners are part of a community of 26,320 residents, and the area’s modest 0.40% annual growth points to steady, incremental demand for home improvements rather than a sudden building boom. That steady growth means more homeowners are investing in long-term landscaping and property upgrades—think durable driveways, better drainage, refreshed planting beds, and turf or hardscape maintenance. With an average of 228 sunny days and 33.50 inches of rain each year in a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, material choices must balance moisture management with sun exposure. Quality bulk materials—gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and stone—help manage runoff, prevent erosion, support plant health, and create reliable base layers for patios and driveways. Buying the right quantity and regional type of material matters here because local geology and weather patterns affect how aggregates compact, drain, and age over time. Lido Beach’s mix of wet and dry periods, moderate annual rainfall, and warm hardiness zone create specific performance demands: materials need consistent drainage characteristics, resistance to washout, and suitable compaction behavior to hold up under seasonal changes. Homeowners should consider particle size, organic content, and placement depth when planning projects, since those factors determine stability, permeability, and plant performance. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers who understand regional soil and aggregate variations, providing tools to calculate quantities, and offering scheduled deliveries so you can match material selection to timing and site conditions.Popular Projects in Lido Beach This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lido Beach Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lido Beach.
Homeowners in Lido Beach commonly order bulk materials like gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for projects such as driveways, pathways, raised beds, beach access, and drainage improvements. These materials serve multiple purposes including base layers, top dressing, grading, and erosion control. Local suppliers offer a range of sizes and blends, so pick one that matches the function and look you want.
Coastal conditions—salt spray, higher humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles—can accelerate breakdown and surface discoloration for some materials. Good drainage, proper base preparation, and choosing denser, well-draining aggregates help materials last longer near the shore. Expect regional color and texture variation due to local geology and salt exposure.
Consider load-bearing needs, drainage, and maintenance when selecting materials: choose a compactable base for vehicle traffic, a top layer that sheds water, and material that resists salt exposure. Match material size and texture to the desired appearance and slip resistance, and factor in how often you want to maintain or replenish the surface. For steep or sloped areas prioritize materials that lock together and minimize washout.
Site factors such as soil type, slope, drainage patterns, and proximity to the ocean influence material choice; poorly draining sites usually need more permeable aggregates and improved base layers. Salt exposure and wind-driven sand can change how a material performs, so select options that tolerate coastal conditions. If your property is in a flood or dune protection area, plan for additional stabilization and erosion controls.
The most practical seasons for deliveries and installations are spring through fall when ground is not frozen and weather is more predictable. Avoid major storms and winter freeze-thaw periods, which can delay work and affect compaction and finish quality. Book deliveries in advance for summer and early fall, when demand and contractor schedules are busiest.
Many local suppliers and haulers offer delivery via dump trucks and may allow customer pick-up depending on equipment and load size. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with local partners, and standard deliveries typically use tri-axle dump trucks. If you prefer to pick up material yourself, check supplier rules, load minimums, and vehicle requirements before planning.
Deliveries are usually made by contracted dump trucks and require clear access, adequate turning space, and a safe drop zone. Standard delivery timeframes are 2+ business days, with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Request your preferred delivery date at checkout, note access constraints, and be ready to discuss tailgate spreading options with the driver, who will decide if it can be done safely.
Estimate material needs by measuring the project area, deciding on the depth required, and converting the volume into cubic yards or tons; Hello Gravel’s material calculator can do this for you. As a rule of thumb, area (sq ft) x depth (inches) / 324 = cubic yards. When in doubt, order a little extra to account for compaction, grading, and measurement error, or contact our team for help with calculations.
Coastal properties often have local rules related to dune protection, shoreline stabilization, and stormwater management, and some installations may require permits from municipal or county authorities. Check with the Town of Hempstead or the local building department for specific regulations before starting work. If in doubt, consult a contractor or contact our team for guidance on common local requirements.
Homeowners often compare materials based on drainage, durability, maintenance, cost, and appearance. Typical questions include which option sheds water best, which compacts for driveway use, which resists salt and erosion, and which needs the least ongoing upkeep. Consider local climate and site conditions, then weigh aesthetic preferences against functional requirements to choose the best fit.
Expect a tri-axle dump truck to arrive during a scheduled window; confirm access routes and a clear, level drop zone before delivery. Move vehicles, cover delicate landscaping, and mark utilities or obstacles to avoid damage. If you need tailgate spreading, request it at checkout and be prepared that the driver will assess safety and feasibility on site.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request order changes; we will do our best to accommodate modifications before processing and dispatch. If there are issues on delivery, notify customer service promptly so we can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve them; see our refund and claims policy for details. Keep photos and documentation of any delivery problems to speed up resolution.
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.
