Bulk gravel, sand, fill dirt & topsoil delivery in Johnston City, IL

Coverage depends on material density and how deep you spread it. As a rule of thumb, 1 ton typically covers about 40-60 sq ft at a 2-inch depth and 25-40 sq ft at a 3-inch depth. Local variations in gravel, sand, dirt, and stone can change these numbers, so use our material calculator or contact the team for a site-specific estimate.

Quantity depends on width and desired depth. For example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 4 inches deep is roughly 2.5 cubic yards (about 3.5 tons for typical aggregates). Delivery and spreading fees vary by material, supplier, and distance; check our checkout for pricing or request a quote and provide width, length, depth, and preferred material.

Typical tri-axle dump trucks used in our network commonly carry about 10-14 cubic yards per load, which translates to roughly 10-20 tons depending on material density. That amount can cover anywhere from a few hundred to over 1,000 sq ft depending on how thick you lay the material. Exact coverage and available truck sizes depend on local suppliers serving Johnston City and nearby ZIP codes.

Many standard pickup trucks can safely carry around 1 to 2 cubic yards, but weight limits and legal load heights are important considerations. For safety, convenience, and when you need more than a few cubic yards, delivery by a dump truck is usually the better option—especially since our minimum order is typically 3 tons and drivers can place material where you need it.

Minimum orders are generally 3 tons. Standard delivery is scheduled in 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but this service is not guaranteed.

We offer a range of aggregates including gravel, sand, dirt, and various stone products sourced regionally. For driveways and bases, compactable stone mixes or crushed stone with fines are commonly recommended for strength and stability; for masonry work, choose clean sand or masonry-specific mixes. Because local geology affects material performance, contact our team for a recommendation based on your project and Johnston City conditions.

We provide an online material calculator, an aggregate quiz to guide selection, and phone/text support from our sales team to help with estimates. On-site estimates depend on supplier availability and are not always provided; you can speed up an accurate estimate by sharing measurements, photos, and project details when you request a quote.

Johnston City and the West Illinois region experience seasonal wet and freeze-thaw conditions that affect drainage and compaction. Choose materials that drain well for areas with heavy runoff, and consider thicker base layers or frost-resistant aggregates where freeze-thaw is a concern. If you are unsure, ask our team for guidance on materials that best match local climate and soil conditions.

Our pricing is competitive with local quarries and landscape supply yards, and delivery is included. No trips to the store, no rental trucks, no loading bags yourself.
