Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why East Carondelet Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
East Carondelet is a small but active community of 1,160 residents within a broader West Illinois metro region that supports a metro population of 2.6+ million. With a steady annual growth rate of 1.20%, construction and renovation activity tends to be consistent rather than boom-driven, which means homeowner projects are increasingly common as families update yards and driveways and as infrastructure improvements keep pace. The local climate—about 228 sunny days a year, 35.50 inches of rain annually, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b—favors year-round outdoor work but also creates specific needs: good drainage materials for heavy spring rains, UV-stable surface layers for long sun exposure, and stable base products that resist settling. For homeowners, that mix translates into demand for a range of bulk materials—fill dirt, sand, mulch, and durable aggregates—used for grading, erosion control, planting beds, and stable access surfaces.Popular Projects in East Carondelet This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - East Carondelet Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Carondelet.
Start by matching the material to the job: think about load-bearing needs, drainage, maintenance, and appearance. In East Carondelet consider local conditions like wet soils and seasonal freeze-thaw; gravel, sand, dirt, stone and blended aggregates each perform differently for driveways, garden beds, or grading. Use our material calculator and call our team for a recommendation based on your project size and desired look.
The area can have wet, alluvial soils and occasional flooding risk near the river, so drainage and proper base preparation matter more here than in dry regions. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rains, and native clay or silt soils can cause settling or washout, so choose materials and installation methods that improve drainage and resist movement. Regional sourcing means texture and color may vary from photos.
Calculate area x depth to get cubic yards, then convert to tons using the material density or use our online calculator for an instant estimate. Keep in mind our minimum order is 3 tons and most projects should add 5-10% extra for compaction and waste. If you need help, tell us your project dimensions and we can recommend a quantity.
Standard delivery typically requires 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Materials are delivered by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle); drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but that is not guaranteed. You will receive a delivery confirmation and should plan access and staging before the truck arrives.
Prices vary by material type, supply, and seasonal demand, but as a ballpark general fill and basic landscaping aggregates often fall in the range of about $20 to $60 per ton (roughly $30 to $80 per cubic yard). Specialty mixes, screened topsoil, or decorative stone can cost more. For an exact price, check your zip code on our site or request a quote.
Avoid installing heavy layers on saturated or frozen ground; late spring through early fall is usually the best window for spreading and compacting aggregates. Schedule deliveries when the ground is dry enough to support a truck and allow for settling after installation before heavy use. Plan around local weather forecasts and order slightly ahead to account for scheduling and lead times.
Permit requirements and HOA rules vary by city, county, and neighborhood, so check with East Carondelet city hall, St. Clair County, or your HOA before starting major driveway or large landscaping projects. Driveway permits, curb-cut approvals, or rules on material color and depth are common in some areas. If you’re unsure, contact our team for general guidance and we can point you to local resources.
Clear the drop area of vehicles, low-hanging branches, and obstacles; confirm the truck has a firm route and turned-around space, and note any overhead wires or low bridges. Add delivery instructions and photos in your order notes so the driver and supplier can plan; consider a staging area if you need material moved off the truck. If you want spreading services, request it at checkout but expect the driver to assess feasibility onsite.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. 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.
