Our minimum order is 3 tons, which is designed to cover small landscape or repair jobs. The cubic yard equivalent depends on the material and moisture content, so use our online calculator or contact us for an exact conversion before ordering. If you need less than the minimum, contact customer service to explore options or smaller packaged products from local retailers.

Clear the drop zone of vehicles, garden items, and low-hanging branches and mark your preferred delivery spot with cones or flags. Confirm your driveway can handle a loaded tri-axle truck and protect delicate surfaces with plywood if needed; if the truck cannot reach the drop spot, additional handling fees may apply. Let the driver know about tight turns, overhead wires, or underground sprinkler heads before delivery.

Local suppliers commonly deliver a range of materials including gravel, sand, dirt, stone, and mulch, with regional mixes that reflect Southern California geology. Choose materials based on function: permeable aggregates for drainage, compactable mixes for driveways, and lighter soils for planting beds. If you are unsure, use our aggregate quiz or contact our team to match material performance to your West Athens climate and project goals.

Delivery pricing typically includes a per-yard or per-ton material charge plus a delivery fee based on truck type and distance from the supplier. Additional factors can include fuel surcharges, access difficulty, permit or street closure needs, and optional services like tailgate spreading. We provide upfront pricing in your quote so you can see material and delivery components separately.

Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Weekend and same-day options may be available depending on local supplier schedules and truck availability, but they are not guaranteed. Select your preferred date at checkout and we will confirm the available window after you place your order.

Large truck deliveries can be affected by street parking rules, residential street weight limits, and HOA restrictions, so check with your HOA and the City of Los Angeles if a street closure or permit is needed. If a permit or street access restriction is required, it may add time or cost to the delivery. Tell our team about any local rules when you order so we can coordinate with the supplier and hauler.

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), PayPal, and Apple Pay through a secure online checkout. For larger contractor accounts or invoicing needs, contact our sales team to discuss payment options and terms. Any third-party payment fees will be disclosed at checkout or in the quote.

Measure the length and width in feet and the desired depth in inches, then use this formula: (length x width x depth in inches) / 324 = cubic yards. Always order an extra 5-10% to account for compaction, grading, or waste, and use our online calculator or contact us for help converting cubic yards to tons for a specific material. If you prefer, send photos and dimensions to our team and we can estimate for you.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and should be requested at checkout, but this service cannot be guaranteed. Spreading depends on site conditions, safety, and crew capabilities; if spreading is essential, plan to hire a landscaper or schedule a spreading service in advance. We recommend marking the area and clearing obstacles to improve the chance the driver can help on arrival.
