Why Richlands Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Richlands, with a population of 17,320, sits within a growing regional economy that is reflected in steady construction and landscaping demand. A growth rate of 2.80% annually means more home improvements, driveways, and yard projects as homeowners and small contractors respond to expanding residential needs. The local climate—about 228/year sunny days and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—creates a balance of sun and moisture that shapes material choices. In this environment homeowners commonly need materials that manage water, stabilize slopes, and tolerate sun exposure. Quality bulk supplies like gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone matter because regional sourcing affects texture, drainage performance, and long-term durability; selecting the right blends reduces rework and supports low-maintenance landscapes across both established lots and new development feeding a 2.3+ million metro market. Local soil conditions combined with the area's rainfall and sun patterns create specific performance requirements for aggregates and organic materials. Moderate rainfall (34.00 inches) means proper drainage and erosion control are priorities—permeable mixes and well-compacted bases help prevent puddling and washouts after storms. With 228/year sunny days and zone 8b growing conditions, organic mulches and soil amendments must resist UV breakdown and support the plants suited to local winters and summers. Hello Gravel helps homeowners navigate these trade-offs by connecting them to nearby suppliers, offering quantity calculators, and scheduling deliveries so material selection matches Richlands’s climate, site access, and long-term performance needs.Popular Projects in Richlands This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Richlands Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Richlands.
Homeowners typically pick materials based on drainage, appearance, and budget rather than brand. Common choices include gravel, sand, dirt, stone and mixes that balance drainage and stability; local suppliers may offer regionally sourced options that vary in color and texture. Use our material quiz or contact our team for guidance on which group best suits a specific project.
Consider how the material handles water and compaction: materials that drain well reduce washout in heavy rains, while firmer aggregates compact better for driveways. Richlands sits in a coastal plain region, so expect sandy to loamy soils; ask about local supplier recommendations and consider a geotextile fabric for added stability. If unsure, order a small test load or request samples before committing to a large delivery.
Heavy summer storms and wet periods make scheduling deliveries and spreading more difficult, and very wet soil reduces compaction effectiveness. Standard deliveries are recommended in drier windows; plan major installs in spring or fall when possible to avoid the wettest months. Always check weather before your delivery date and allow extra cure or settling time for material after rain.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area to get cubic yards (length x width x depth) and then convert to tons using our material calculator because density varies by material and region. Hello Gravel’s online calculator and team can help convert measurements and advise on an appropriate overage to allow for settling and grading. For most projects we recommend rounding up slightly rather than ordering exactly to avoid a shortfall.
Total cost typically includes the material price, a delivery fee, and any optional services such as tailgate spreading, plus local taxes or fees. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and offers transparent pricing—get a quote for a precise price since distance from the supplier, material type, and accessibility affect cost. For installation labor, get local contractor estimates because labor pricing varies by scope and site conditions.
Our network connects customers in Richlands and the surrounding West North Carolina area to local suppliers and haulers, but availability depends on your zip code and supplier coverage. Enter your zip code on our site to check service and see available materials and delivery dates. Deliveries are performed by contracted trucking fleets, not Hello Gravel-branded trucks.
Standard delivery generally requires 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout and we will confirm timing with the local supplier. While we strive to meet requested dates, exact timing is subject to supplier and trucker schedules.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request this service at checkout and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely upon arrival. We do not guarantee spreading services, so for consistent grading and compaction it’s often best to hire a local contractor. If you plan to spread yourself, ask the driver about best placement to simplify later grading.
Contractors usually price based on the area size, depth, site prep (removal of existing material, grading), material type, compaction requirements, and site access. Get multiple written estimates and ask whether the quote includes hauling, spreading, compaction, and cleanup so you can compare apples to apples. Sharing your Hello Gravel delivery details with contractors helps them give accurate installation pricing.
Yes, some HOAs and municipal codes may limit driveway materials, colors, or the amount of exposed aggregate to control appearance and drainage. Before ordering materials, check your HOA covenants and contact the town planning or zoning office in Richlands to confirm any requirements. If restrictions exist, our team can help suggest compliant material options and order notes to request preferred color or sizing where available.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
