Materials Available for Delivery
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
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.
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.
1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Jefferson Park Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Jefferson Park's population of 26,000 sits within a broader metro area of 2.6+ million, and a steady annual growth rate of 1.20% signals ongoing demand for home improvement, infill construction, and landscaping work. That steady growth means projects are more likely to be routine and continual—driveway repairs, patio installs, yard regrades, and small-scale additions—rather than sporadic booms. Local climate and geography shape material choices: in hardiness zone 8b with about 228 sunny days per year and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners need materials that balance drainage and moisture retention. Sand, dirt, gravel, stone, and organic mulches all play roles in managing water, supporting plantings, and creating stable surfaces. Because materials are regionally sourced, texture and color will reflect local geology, so selecting the right gradation and consistency is key for durable, attractive results.Popular Projects in Jefferson Park This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Jefferson Park Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Jefferson Park.
Delivery cost depends on the material, quantity, distance from the supplier, and any service add-ons. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing during checkout and may offer free delivery in many areas; next-day delivery and special services can add fees. The best way to get an accurate cost for a Jefferson Park address is to enter your zip code and material choice on our site or request a quote.
Hello Gravel connects customers in Jefferson Park with trusted local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers who serve the area. Exact suppliers vary by zip code and material type, so enter your primary zip code (60630) on our site to see which options are available for your address. If you prefer, our team can confirm availability and recommend suitable local sources.
Winter weather, snow, and frozen ground can limit delivery access and site work in Jefferson Park, so spring through fall is generally the easiest time for larger landscaping and installation projects. Standard delivery turnaround can also be slower during busy spring and summer seasons. If you need material in winter, check availability early and consider next-day delivery options where offered.
Local soil and drainage conditions in Jefferson Park affect whether you prioritize drainage, stability, or a finished surface. For areas with poor drainage or freeze-thaw cycles, choose materials and base layers that promote drainage and reduce frost heave. If you are unsure, use our material quiz or contact our team for guidance based on your planned use and site conditions.
Permits and HOA rules can affect driveway, parking pad, and front-yard materials in Jefferson Park neighborhoods; requirements vary by municipality and association. Hello Gravel does not issue permits, so check with the City of Chicago building department and your HOA before ordering. If you need help, our team can point you to common permit contacts and recommend typical materials that commonly meet local rules.
Materials that allow good drainage and have stable particle shapes typically perform better through freeze-thaw cycles and wet springs. For structural or high-traffic areas, use layered approaches with a firm base, drainage layer, and a surface material suited to the use. Always consider proper grading and compaction (contractor or equipment may be needed) to extend performance across seasons.
Most Hello Gravel deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, which require clear street access, sufficient turning room, and safe drop locations. Narrow streets, overhead wires, parked cars, or tight alleys in Jefferson Park may require smaller trucks or a short carry from the drop point to your site; add access notes and photos at checkout to help us coordinate. Drivers will assess safety on arrival and may refuse unsafe drops, so it is best to prepare the site in advance.
Minimum orders on the Hello Gravel platform are generally 3 tons, and standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, subject to availability. During peak seasons or for special materials, lead times may be longer, so check availability for your zip code when planning.
Installed project costs vary by project size, material choice, site preparation needs, and labor rates; small DIY projects can often be completed for a few hundred dollars, while larger contractor installations can reach several thousand. To estimate your cost, calculate material volumes using our calculator, add delivery and any permit fees, and get labor estimates from local contractors. Request multiple quotes and factor in seasonal demand when budgeting.
Some local haulers may offer tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and may incur an extra fee. Compaction and professional spreading are typically separate services handled by landscapers or contractors rather than delivery drivers. If you need spreading or compaction, request it at checkout and plan to hire a local contractor if the driver cannot perform the work.
Start by matching the material properties to the project need: prioritize drainage for beds and low spots, stability for driveways and walkways, and preferred appearance for finished surfaces. Consider Jefferson Park's seasonal weather, traffic load, and local regulations, then use our material calculator and quiz to narrow options. When in doubt, contact our team with project details and photos for personalized recommendations.
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.

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.
