Garden Soil
Premium garden soil enriched with organic matter—essential for vigorous, healthy plant growth. Ideal for filling gardens, building raised beds, and enhancing tired or compacted soil. Fulfillment 20-40% organic is ideal
3/8″ Natural Pea Gravel
Decorative and functional landscaping gravel. Small, naturally rounded stones create an aesthetic appeal when used for pathways, plant beds and garden borders. Also great for water features, rock gardens, dog runs and playground surfacing.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.

Why Inverness Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a population of 870, Inverness is a small but active community whose steady 0.40% annually growth suggests consistent, manageable demand for home improvements rather than rapid building booms. The surrounding metro area of 7.9+ million supports regional supply chains and access to contractor services, so local projects often benefit from nearby materials and expertise. Inverness's climate—about 204 sunny days per year and roughly 49.77 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 9a—creates a mix of drying conditions and substantial wet periods. That combination raises the bar for material performance: durable base aggregates for drainage, structured soils and organic mixes for planting, and erosion-resistant mulches or rock for slopes. Homeowners increasingly prioritize projects that balance water management and low maintenance, so sourcing the right bulk materials up front reduces callbacks and extends the life of patios, paths, planting beds, and driveways. Local soils and seasonal weather in Inverness create specific performance needs for aggregates and bulk supplies. Heavy rains make drainage and erosion control essential, while plentiful sun increases drying and UV exposure — both factors change how sand, gravel, topsoil, and mulches behave over time. For homeowners, that means choosing materials based on function (drainage, structural support, or moisture retention) rather than looks alone. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers who understand the area's geology and climate, guiding quantity estimates and delivery timing so materials arrive appropriate for Inverness's conditions and your project's goals.Popular Projects in Inverness This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Inverness Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Inverness.
Prices vary by material, supplier, and season, so there is no single price for a ton. Cost depends on whether you need gravel, sand, dirt, stone or a specialty blend, plus local hauling and processing. Use our online quote or request a local estimate to get an accurate per-ton price for your zip code.
Yes. Choosing locally sourced materials, ordering in bulk, and using simpler finishes can reduce costs. Consider mixing lower-cost base materials with smaller amounts of decorative stone, and use our material calculator and quotes to compare options before you buy.
Clear a drop zone and check access for a tri-axle dump truck, including overhead obstructions and driveway strength. Protect fragile surfaces, mark the preferred dump spot in the Order Notes, and plan for vehicle turnaround; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but there are no guarantees.
Truckload pricing varies by truck size, material type, and local hauling rates, so costs can differ widely. Suppliers typically price by the ton or cubic yard and may include delivery fees; get a quote through our platform to see the exact cost for your material and address.
Calculate area (20 ft x 20 ft = 400 sq ft) and decide on thickness (for example, 4 inches is common for some base layers). Convert depth to cubic yards to get the quantity, then use our calculator or request a quote to convert cubic yards to tons for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and to account for compaction and waste.
The 70/30 guideline often refers to mixing about 70% native soil with 30% compost or organic amendment for garden beds to improve texture and fertility. In Inverness, adjust that ratio based on local soil tests and drainage needs; our team can help you choose topsoil and amendments suitable for your site.
Look for local municipal programs, construction surplus, community swaps, and online classifieds where people give away excess materials. Hello Gravel can also help by comparing affordable local supplier options, but we do not guarantee free materials.
The rule of three is a design principle that groups elements in odd numbers for visual interest and balance. For material planning, apply simple layers—subbase, base, and finish—to address drainage, stability, and appearance when using gravel, sand, dirt, stone or mulch.
There is no universal '3-hour gardening rule' in materials delivery; different tasks have different timing needs. For example, allow time for drivers to unload and for materials to settle before spreading, and follow manufacturer guidance for mulches, soils, or seed work; contact our team if you need timing advice for a specific product.
Many big-box stores offer delivery, often with palletized or small-quantity options. Hello Gravel specializes in bulk delivery through a network of local suppliers and professional dump truck fleets, typically with a minimum order of 3 tons and scheduling tailored to bulk landscaping and construction projects.
What $1,000 covers depends on the material, project scope, and hauling—examples include enough base material for a small pathway, mulch for several garden beds, or topsoil for raised beds. Use our material calculator or request a quote to see how far $1,000 will go for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and labor-related services in your area.
Start by defining the purpose: drainage, erosion control, a stable base, or decorative finish. Consider load-bearing needs, drainage, local climate, aesthetic preferences, and budget; our product guides and sales team can help match a material or combination to your specific Inverness project.
Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; modifications are easier before the supplier processes and dispatches the load. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but changes depend on timing and supplier schedules and cannot be guaranteed.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.

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.
