Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Arcadia, OK

Common choices for driveways and landscaping include gravel, sand, dirt, and crushed stone in various sizes and blends. In Arcadia's climate and local geology, denser aggregates and properly compacted bases perform best for load-bearing areas, while finer materials are useful for leveling and planting beds. Choose a material based on use (driving vs walking vs planting), desired appearance, and drainage needs.

West Oklahoma sees hot summers, occasional severe storms, and occasional freeze/thaw, all of which affect settling and drainage. Local soils can be clayey or silty and may hold water, so pick materials and base preparations that promote drainage and resist erosion. Proper grading, compaction, and edge restraint improve longevity for most aggregates.

Late spring through early fall is typically best for outdoor work in Arcadia because warmer, dryer conditions make spreading and compaction easier and reduce weather delays. Avoid scheduling heavy earthwork during periods of heavy rain or when the ground is frozen. If you need faster delivery, next-day options may be available for orders placed early in the day.

Standard delivery generally requires 2 or more business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of about 3 tons, and delivery fees depend on distance, supplier, and truck access; some areas may qualify for free delivery. Rural or tight-access locations can incur extra fees or require smaller trucks, so confirm details at checkout.

Typical estimates: a 1-car driveway (10 x 20 ft) at 4 inches deep needs about 1.85 cubic yards; a 2-car driveway (20 x 20 ft) at 4 inches needs about 3.7 cubic yards; a 3-foot-wide walkway 50 feet long at 2 inches needs about 0.9 cubic yards. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator for precise amounts and consider ordering slightly more for compaction and grading waste.

DIY is often feasible for small projects like walkways or garden beds, but larger driveways and heavy grading usually benefit from contractors with compaction equipment and site preparation experience. Factor labor, equipment rental, and local permit requirements into your cost comparison, and ask suppliers about delivery vehicle sizes and access to ensure safe unloading. Contractors may coordinate material delivery and handle spreading, but tailgate spreading by drivers is only available at their discretion.

Permit and HOA rules vary; some property owners need permits for driveway changes, impermeable surface increases, or drainage alterations. Check Arcadia and Oklahoma County regulations and any applicable HOA guidelines before starting work. When in doubt, ask your contractor or contact local planning offices to confirm requirements.

In hot weather, fine materials can loosen and shift more easily, while heavier angular aggregates resist displacement and erosion during storms. Freeze/thaw cycles can cause heaving if water is trapped beneath materials, so ensure good drainage and compaction. Choosing materials with appropriate size and angularity and preparing a stable base improves performance across weather extremes.

Maintenance varies: loose surface materials may need occasional raking, topping up, and regrading after storms, while well-installed compacted surfaces resist movement longer. With proper base preparation and drainage, many aggregate surfaces last 5 to 15 years before significant replenishment or repairs are needed, depending on traffic and climate. Regular inspection after heavy storms and prompt touch-ups extend service life.

Delivery access depends on driveway width, overhead obstructions, gate access, and turning radius for dump trucks; tight or soft access can require smaller trucks or additional fees. Distance from local suppliers and available hauling routes also influence cost. Provide clear access notes at checkout and confirm any special instructions to avoid delays or additional charges.

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.
