Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Colonial Heights, TN

Choose materials based on use, drainage, and appearance rather than a single "best" option. For Colonial Heights' climate, look for materials that shed water well and compact for stability; combinations often work best (a compacted base with a surface layer). Because we source regionally, trial samples or small test areas help confirm color and texture for your yard.

Typical costs vary by material, quantity, and distance from the supplier. As a general guide, regional deliveries often fall into broad ranges (for example, low-cost materials at the lower end and specialty or long-haul deliveries at the higher end), but exact pricing depends on tons or cubic yards, truck access, and any required fees. Check our quote tool for a precise estimate for your zip code.

Most local suppliers and contracted truck fleets deliver throughout Colonial Heights, but access can affect where a truck can safely dump. Narrow roads, low-hanging wires, steep driveways, or soft ground may require offloading further from your target spot or additional handling. Provide clear delivery notes and photos at checkout to help us coordinate the right truck and placement.

Spring and fall are often the easiest times for deliveries and installations because ground conditions are milder and drier. Avoid scheduling heavy deliveries on days with frozen ground or during extended heavy rain when trucks can rut lawns or delivery may be delayed. If you need faster service, our next-day delivery option is available for orders placed before noon CST, subject to availability and extra fees.

Measure length, width, and desired depth to calculate volume (length x width x depth). Convert that volume to cubic yards (multiply cubic feet by 0.037) and then to tons using a material-specific factor; a useful rule of thumb is 1 cubic yard typically equals about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on the material. Use our online material calculator or contact our team for help with conversions and waste allowance.

Many projects and large material deliveries in Colonial Heights may be subject to city permits, neighborhood HOA rules, or local road-use restrictions. Check with Colonial Heights city offices and your HOA before ordering if your work affects curb cuts, driveway expansions, or street parking. If in doubt, contact our customer team and we can note delivery requirements or timing preferences on your order.

Plan for proper drainage and grading first; materials that allow water to pass through or be directed away from structures often work best. Consider using a layered approach (stable base, drainage layer, and top layer) and adding geotextile fabric where needed to prevent mixing and erosion. For frost-prone areas, ensure proper compaction and slope to reduce freeze-thaw movement and pooling.

Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days, with next-day options for orders placed before noon CST at an additional cost. We use contracted dump truck fleets, and tailgate spreading may be offered at the driver's discretion—request it at checkout but note it is not guaranteed. Minimum orders start at 3 tons and you can check zip code availability and scheduling on our site.

Prices vary regionally because of differences in local geology, supplier inventory, and trucking distance. Factors like demand, seasonal availability, and road or site access can also affect cost, as can the need for specialty handling or permits. Comparing quotes for the same material across nearby towns can reveal whether differences are due to hauling distance or material type.

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.
