Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Annandale, VA

Start by matching material to use: high-traffic driveways need more durable, well-draining aggregates while low-traffic walkways can use finer, smoother materials. Consider drainage, maintenance, desired look, and local climate when choosing between gravel, sand, dirt, stone and blended products. Use our material calculator and consult our team if you are unsure about base layers, compaction, or finish depth.

Costs depend on material type, quantity, access, and labor. As a general guideline, delivered bulk materials often fall in a broad range and installation or spreading labor can add to the total, so we recommend getting a local quote; note that minimum orders are 3 tons and delivery timing or next-day service can affect price. Contact our team for an itemized estimate based on your exact address and project scope.

Annandale’s seasonal rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles make drainage an important factor. Materials that promote good drainage and compact well for base layers, paired with a top material that sheds water, usually perform best; gravel, sand, dirt, stone choices should be selected based on whether you need drainage, stability, or a decorative finish. Due to regional sourcing, texture and color can vary, so consider samples or a small test area.

Spring through early fall is generally best for outdoor projects because soil is easier to work with and weather is more predictable. Winter and very wet periods can make sites muddy or frozen, complicating delivery and installation. We offer standard delivery in 2+ business days and next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST, but local contractor availability and weather should guide your timetable.

Some neighborhoods, streets, and HOAs have rules about truck access, street parking, and placing material in public right-of-way, and local municipalities may require permits for blocking streets or curbs. Check with your HOA and the county or city public works office before ordering, and tell us about access limitations during checkout so we can plan the delivery. Our team can help flag common access issues but cannot obtain municipal permits for you.

Compare options by function (drainage vs. stability vs. appearance), particle size and shape, maintenance needs, and cost. For example, some mixes compact well for driveways while others are chosen mainly for color and curb appeal; think about how often you want to maintain edges or rake the surface. Ask for regional examples since gravel, sand, dirt, stone can look and behave differently depending on local sourcing.

Small garden beds and pathways often use 1 to 4 cubic yards, while typical driveway resurfacing or larger landscaping projects can require 10 to 40 cubic yards or more. Because weight and volume vary by material, use our online calculator to convert square feet and desired depth into tons or cubic yards, and remember our minimum order is 3 tons. If you are unsure, request a free estimate and we can help size the order based on your project dimensions.

HOAs and neighborhood guidelines often set limits on material color, visibility, and allowable finishes, which can narrow your choices for driveway and front-yard surfaces. For curb appeal, consider materials and colors that complement your home and meet local rules; you can add color preferences in Order Notes at checkout. Always confirm HOA requirements before ordering to avoid rework or denials.

Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets; expect a call or arrival window and make sure access and parking are clear. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if it can be done safely, but this service is not guaranteed, so request it during checkout and be prepared to do some spreading or hire local labor. Mark your drop spot, remove obstacles, and let our team know about tight turns, overhead wires, or gated entries before delivery.

Contact our customer team as soon as possible if you need to change quantities, delivery date, or cancel—changes are easier to accommodate before the order is dispatched. Once trucks are scheduled or materials are loaded, modifications may be limited and additional fees could apply. For fastest service, call 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734 and include your order number and address.
