River Sand
Naturally washed river sand with a fine, consistent grain. Ideal for masonry projects, sand beds, and as a base material for pavers and artificial turf installations.
Rounded, water-worn sand dug from riverbeds, good for paver bases and landscape fill, not the sharp angular grain you'd want in structural concrete.
Also called: brown sand, bank sand, river run sand, washed river sand, natural sand.

Hello Gravel Guarantee
Right material. Safe delivery. Real help if we miss.
How it works
- We fix what we control. Wrong material, confirmed fulfillment errors, or orders we cannot complete are reviewed for replacement, refund, or another fair resolution.
- Safe delivery comes first. The driver chooses the final safe dump location on site. If your requested spot is not safely reachable, we deliver to the closest safe location available.
- Plans change. You can cancel free up to one full business day before delivery. Next-business-day orders cannot be cancelled once confirmed.
- Natural material varies. Color, texture, moisture, dust, and sizing can vary by quarry, supplier, season, and region.
“We chose a delivery date. The driver dropped it exactly where I asked. I had never ordered gravel in my life.”

After waiting 3 weeks for a local company to deliver topsoil, we got in touch with Jonas, who set us up with a delivery date and a requested amount of top grade material. The three tons we expected became 3 yards at delivery. Cost was a little better than local vendors and material was high quality. Jonas was very helpful, making the process effortlessl.

This was my first time ordering ground materials, I placed an order for garden soil. They contacted me asking what my project is etc to make sure I was getting the right type of materials and the right amount. Great communication - i hate phone calls but luckily they let me communicate all through text lol order came on the day I requested and the material and amount is perfect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Use our built-in calculator on this page — enter the length, width, and depth of your project area, and we'll calculate the exact amount. As a general rule, 1 ton of material covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep.
We deliver directly to your driveway or project site using a dump truck. Just choose your delivery date and time window (AM or PM) during checkout. Next-day delivery is available on orders placed before noon.
Yes! Delivery is included in the price you see — no hidden fees, no surprises. The price per ton (or yard) you see is the price you pay, delivered.
The minimum order is typically 1 ton (or 1 cubic yard for mulch and soil products). Our pricing gets better with larger quantities — a full truckload (18 tons) gives you the best per-unit price.
Due to the nature of bulk materials, we cannot accept returns once delivered. We recommend using our calculator to get the right amount — it's better to order slightly more than to run short mid-project.
Mason sand is fine and washed — ideal for pavers and masonry. River sand is naturally smooth — great for concrete and turf. Fill sand is utility-grade for backfilling. Concrete sand is coarse and ASTM-rated for structural concrete.
Mason sand and white mason sand are the best choices for sandboxes — they're washed, fine-grained, and clean. Fill sand and concrete sand are coarser and better suited for construction applications.
