Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Baxter, TN

Customers in Baxter often order gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for a range of jobs. Typical uses include driveways and parking pads, patio and walkway bases, yard grading and fill, drainage and erosion control, and landscape mulching or decorative surfaces.

Pick materials based on function first: drainage, compaction, appearance, or fill. Consider how the material will be used (load-bearing base vs decorative top layer), local climate effects, and your desired look, and use our material calculator or contact our team for guidance.

Quantities depend on area and depth, but as a rough guide a 4-inch compacted base covering 100 sq ft typically needs about 1.5 to 2 tons. A typical two-car driveway often needs roughly 8 to 15 tons depending on length and depth; patios and walkways commonly range from 2 to 6 tons. Use our online calculator or contact us with your measurements for a precise estimate.

Deliveries are handled by tri-axle dump trucks that need good turning room, clearance from overhead wires, and stable ground to drive on. Local road weight limits and narrow or steep driveways can restrict truck access; let us know any access issues and provide photos or notes so suppliers can plan. Drivers will assess final placement on arrival and may refuse unsafe drops.

West Tennessee rain and occasional freeze/thaw cycles can affect compaction, settling, and drainage, so pick materials that match your drainage and freeze-thaw needs. Schedule deliveries during drier windows when possible to avoid excessive mud and poor compaction, and plan extra time for site prep in wet seasons. For projects sensitive to weather, consider ordering earlier or asking about storage and staging options.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days from order, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. During peak landscaping and construction seasons lead times can be longer, so schedule early when possible. We recommend checking availability for your zip code (38544) and confirming estimated delivery windows at checkout.

Small deliveries for typical landscaping or driveway projects often do not need permits, but larger grading, hauling across public right-of-way, or work affecting stormwater may require city or county permits. Check with Baxter city offices and your county building or public works department before large jobs, and verify any HOA rules that might apply. When in doubt, contact our team and we can point you to local resources.

Because materials are regionally sourced, texture, color, and particle shape can vary based on local geology in West Tennessee. Photos should be used as a guide rather than an exact match; if color or texture is important, note your preference at checkout and ask our team about local samples. Suppliers strive for consistent grading and quality, but natural materials will have some variation.

Contact our team as soon as possible—changes are easiest before the order is dispatched and we will do our best to accommodate requests. If there is an issue on delivery, notify customer service promptly so we can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve it; refer to our policies for details on refunds and claims. Keep photos and notes about placement and access handy to speed resolution.

Installation and labor costs vary with project complexity, local labor rates, and whether you hire a contractor or do it yourself, so get multiple local quotes for accurate pricing. Hello Gravel focuses on supplying and delivering materials; we can help estimate material needs but do not perform installation. For budgeting, factor in site prep, compaction, edging, and potential hauling off of existing materials.

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.
