Bulk gravel, sand, fill dirt & topsoil delivery in De Graff, OH

Coverage depends on the material's density and the depth you want. As a general rule, 1 ton is about 0.7 cubic yards, which covers roughly 230 sq ft at 1" depth, 115 sq ft at 2" depth, and 77 sq ft at 3" depth. Use these estimates for gravel, sand, dirt, or stone, and allow a little extra for compaction and settling.

Truck loads are measured in cubic yards, not tons, and tri-axle dump trucks commonly deliver about 10 to 14 cubic yards. At that size you can expect roughly 1,300 to 1,800 sq ft covered at 2" depth (estimates vary by material). Because different materials weigh differently, ask for both cubic yards and an approximate tonnage when getting a quote.

Prices depend on material type, grade, local supplier, and delivery distance. In West Ohio, typical delivered costs often fall in a wide range, so plan on getting quotes for the exact material you need; Hello Gravel shows local pricing once you enter your zip code. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and taxes or delivery fees may apply.

Convert the driveway to area and volume: for example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3" depth requires about 1.85 cubic yards (roughly 2.6 tons). Multiply the tons needed by the delivered price per ton you were quoted to estimate cost. Use our online material calculator or contact our team for a customized estimate based on your exact width, depth, and material choice.

It depends on both the bed volume and the vehicle's payload rating. Many pickup beds can hold the volume of about 1 ton of common aggregates, but the truck may not be rated to carry that much weight. Check your owner's manual for payload limits; for most De Graff projects we recommend ordering the minimum 3 tons and having it delivered by a dump truck for safety and convenience.

Choose based on function: drainage needs more open, well-draining aggregates; driveway bases benefit from angular, compacting materials; landscape top layers prioritize appearance and stability. Consider the group of materials—gravel, sand, dirt, stone—and ask about local grades and recommendations for West Ohio's soil and freeze-thaw conditions when you request a quote.

Lower-cost options are usually basic fill or locally available recycled aggregates, but cheaper materials can vary in appearance and performance. Balance price with the project's needs—for example, a low-cost fill may be fine for grading, but a higher-quality, compacting base is worth the extra cost for driveways. Ask our team to compare options for your budget and project goals.

Standard delivery is 2 or more business days from order processing, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout, and we will confirm timing once the haul is scheduled with a local truck. Deliveries use contracted dump truck fleets, typically tri-axle trucks, and delivery windows are estimates rather than guarantees.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess safety and access on arrival. If spreading is critical to your project, plan for a professional spreading service or arrange helpers ahead of time.

Contact our team as soon as possible—changes are easiest before the order is processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications depend on supplier and driver schedules. If there is an issue with delivery or the material, contact customer service right away so we can work toward a satisfactory resolution.

Yes. Regional sourcing means color, texture, and gradation of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone can vary in West Ohio. Seasonal conditions matter too: wet spring soils and freeze-thaw in winter affect compaction and drainage, so schedule deliveries and installations accordingly. If you have concerns, our team can recommend materials and timing that suit De Graff's local 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.
