Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Skykomish, WA

Choose materials that promote drainage and resist freeze-thaw movement. Well-graded mixes of gravel, sand, dirt, stone used together (not listed individually) compact well and shed water when installed over a stable subbase and, where appropriate, a geotextile fabric. Steeper or shaded areas benefit from coarser material and good slope grading to prevent rutting and ice buildup.

Calculate volume first: multiply square feet of the area by the desired depth in inches, then divide by 324 to get cubic yards. Convert cubic yards to tons using the material calculator on our site (tonnage varies by material), and add 5–10% extra for compaction and waste. If you prefer, use Hello Gravel's online calculator or contact our team for a quick estimate.

Prioritize materials and installation methods that slow water, promote infiltration, and reduce erosion. Layering stable gravel mixes over geotextile, using terraces or retaining features, and combining aggregates with vegetation can all help control runoff. For significant slopes or river-side properties, consult an engineer or local permitting office before major earthwork.

Late spring through early fall (roughly May through October) is typically best for deliveries and installation because of milder, drier conditions. Winter and heavy-rain periods can make access difficult and increase the risk of tracking and compaction issues, though deliveries are available year-round when conditions allow. Plan around seasonal road and river conditions and book early during peak months.

Narrow roads, steep driveways, low-hanging branches, and bridge or weight limits can require smaller trucks or offloading at the roadside, which may increase cost. Send photos of your access during checkout or contact our team so we can match the right hauler and truck. We require a minimum order (typically 3 tons) and will confirm delivery details after reviewing access.

Delivery price depends on distance from the supplier, total tonnage, material type, access difficulty, and seasonal demand. Remote or hard-to-access jobs may require smaller trucks or extra handling fees. For exact pricing, enter your zip code on our site or request a quote so we can show transparent pricing for your location.

Possibly. Local, county, and watershed rules can affect importing fill, especially near streams, floodplains, or septic systems. Check with Skykomish town offices, Snohomish County, and any HOA before large deliveries, and secure any necessary permits or approvals before work begins.

Use well-draining aggregate layers combined with engineered features like riprap or larger stone at high-energy zones, filter fabric to prevent loss of fines, and vegetation for long-term stabilization. Material choice should be coordinated with permit requirements and a qualified professional for bank stabilization projects. Small projects can often use properly sized aggregate mixes paired with native planting to reduce erosion.

Buying bulk materials and doing the work yourself usually saves on labor costs but requires time, tools, and skill to get good results. Hiring a contractor adds labor, equipment, and permit handling but can be more efficient for complex sites or steep/riverfront jobs. Get a materials quote and compare it to contractor bids so you can weigh material cost against labor and risk.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request the service at checkout and the driver will assess safety on arrival, but spreading is not guaranteed.

For any delivery issues, contact customer service and we will work to resolve them according to our policies.

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.
