Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Urbanna, VA

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve Urbanna and nearby Middlesex County. Delivery is handled by contracted dump truck fleets (typically tri-axle) rather than branded Hello Gravel trucks. Availability can vary by zip code, so check your zip to see local options and pricing.

Choose materials based on function: good drainage, durability, and local availability are key in coastal Virginia. For most projects we recommend considering options that balance compaction and drainage; your local supplier can show materials that suit driveways, patios, and planting areas. Keep in mind regional sourcing means color and texture may differ from photos.

Urbanna’s coastal, sometimes marshy environment increases the need for materials that drain well and resist salt exposure and seasonal wetness. Use mixes and installation techniques that improve drainage and limit frost heave in colder months. Your supplier and installer can recommend base layers and grades that perform best in local soils and tidal-influenced areas.

Prices vary widely based on material type, local supply, truck distance, and seasonal demand, so it’s hard to give a single number. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing and lets you get a quote for your zip code so you can compare per-ton or per-yard costs. Use the site calculator or contact our team for a specific estimate for your project.

Permit and HOA rules vary by project scope and location, so check with Middlesex County building officials and any local HOA before you start. Simple landscaping often needs no permit, while driveway changes, impermeable surfaces, or work in protected areas may require approvals. If you’re unsure, contact the local permitting office or your HOA early in planning.

Spring through fall is the busiest and most contractor-friendly time for outdoor work in this region, with milder weather and better ground conditions. Winter deliveries are possible but can be trickier due to wet or frozen ground and limited contractor availability. Plan ahead and use Hello Gravel’s scheduling options to choose a delivery date that matches your installer’s timeline.

Some roads in and around Urbanna are narrow or have low clearances, and large dump trucks may have difficulty accessing tight yards. When you order, note access limitations and leave clear instructions in Order Notes so the hauler can plan a safe drop location. In many cases contractors or haulers can use smaller trucks or offload at a nearby staging area.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, but delivery fees and minimums can vary by supplier and distance from local yards. Standard delivery is 2+ business days with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Many areas qualify for free delivery; check your zip code at checkout for exact terms.

Materials that promote drainage typically include well-graded aggregates and mixes designed to shed water while providing a stable base. For many projects, a layered approach—using coarser base material with a finer wearing surface—improves drainage and load-bearing performance. Talk to your supplier about materials suited to local soil and rainfall patterns to prevent standing water and erosion.

Yes, homeowners can often buy smaller deliveries through Hello Gravel’s network or from local yards that offer retail sales, but availability depends on the supplier. Minimums and truck size may limit very small orders, so consider coordinating with neighbors or contractors for shared delivery if you need less than the typical minimum. Use the material calculator on our site to estimate quantities and verify if a small delivery is feasible.

Provide clear access details, preferred drop location, and any obstacles like low branches, narrow driveways, or septic systems in the Order Notes. Request tailgate spreading if you want it done, but understand drivers will assess feasibility on arrival and spreading is not guaranteed. Contact the Hello Gravel team ahead of delivery if you need help planning a safe, efficient drop.

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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
