Weight varies by material and moisture content, but a cubic yard typically ranges from about 1,200 to 3,000 pounds. Lighter materials like some topsoils sit at the low end, while compact aggregates are at the high end; always check the supplier's spec if weight limits matter for your site.

Because density varies, a good rule of thumb is about 50 to 60 50-pound bags per cubic yard, with 54 bags often used as a typical estimate. If you need an exact conversion for a particular material, check its bulk density or ask your supplier.

Truck capacity varies by truck type, but common dump trucks used for local deliveries typically carry 10 to 14 cubic yards, while tri-axle trucks often used for Hello Gravel deliveries commonly carry around 10 to 12 cubic yards. The weight carried depends on the material density, so a truckload can represent very different tonnages for different materials.

That depends on your pickup bed size and the material weight; some full-size pickups can carry up to about 1.5 to 2.0 cubic yards safely, but heavier materials may exceed the vehicle's payload rating. For volumes of 2 yards or more, or if you are unsure about weight limits, we recommend scheduled delivery by dump truck for safety and convenience.

Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see vehicle traffic; most driveways need a compacted base plus a surface layer totaling 4 to 6 inches, depending on soil and expected loads. For light-use paths or decorative top dressings, 2 inches may be acceptable, but for durability in Coulterville's freeze-thaw climate, a thicker, well-compacted build-up is recommended.

One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, so coverage depends on depth: at 2 inches it covers about 162 square feet, at 4 inches about 81 square feet, and at 6 inches about 54 square feet. Use these numbers to estimate how many cubic yards you need, and add 5-10% extra for compaction and waste.

Start by defining the project's purpose—drainage, load-bearing, walkways, or decorative finish—and choose a material that fits that need. Consider local conditions and seasonal weather in Coulterville, regional sourcing variations, and maintenance; use Hello Gravel's material quiz or contact our team to match gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates to your project.

Measure the project area (length x width) and decide on the target depth, then convert to cubic yards using 27 cubic feet per yard. Add about 5-10% extra for compaction, settling, and cut/fill adjustments, and increase the allowance if the ground is irregular or you expect heavy compaction.

Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days after ordering, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and you will receive confirmation with scheduling details once the supplier and hauler are assigned.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading or partial placement at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. If you need material placed in a tight area or spread out, request it at checkout and be prepared that the driver will assess access and safety when they arrive.

Clear a staging area, park vehicles away from the drop zone, and mark any utilities or fragile surfaces you want avoided. Make sure there is clear access for a dump truck, note any gate codes in order notes, and contact our team if site conditions are unusual so we can coordinate with the hauler.

Materials are delivered by dump truck directly to your driveway or job site, placed exactly where you need them.
