#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.
3/4″ Crushed Stone
A reliable, clean ¾” crushed granite or limestone with many applications. Great for gravel driveways, concrete mixes, landscaping applications, and backfilling retaining walls or around foundations.
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.
Fill Dirt
Versatile, lower-grade soil commonly used for volume and elevation changes in various construction and landscaping projects. Great for leveling or grading ground, backfilling pools and filling ditches, and evening out low points or depressions on your property.
Black Shredded Mulch
Rich black shredded hardwood mulch made from oak, hickory, and maple. Holds in moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your garden beds a bold look that makes green plants and colorful flowers stand out.

Why Millcreek Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Millcreek has a city population of 48, positioned within a larger metro area population of 2.6+ million, and a steady growth rate of 1.20% annually that points to ongoing residential and infrastructure activity. That measured growth translates to continued demand for small-scale construction, driveway updates, landscape refreshes, and new plantings—projects that all depend on reliable bulk supplies like gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and stone. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and average annual rainfall of 35.50 inches—means materials must balance sun resistance and moisture management. Homeowners should consider UV- and weather-resistant options for exposed surfaces, materials that shed or direct water to prevent pooling, and regionally sourced aggregates whose texture and color reflect local geology. As neighborhoods expand, clear guidance on quantities and convenient delivery become practical necessities for avoiding delays and extra trips to suppliers.Popular Projects in Millcreek This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Millcreek Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Millcreek.
In Millcreek’s climate, choose materials that drain well and resist frost heave. Generally, angular, well-graded aggregates and coarser mixes shed water faster than fine, compactable materials, and locally sourced products reflect regional geology. For any project, ask our team about local options so you get material suited to freeze–thaw conditions and seasonal wetness.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers clear, upfront pricing that varies by distance and load size. Many areas get free standard delivery, but fees can apply for remote locations or expedited service; use your zip code at checkout to see exact costs. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee.
Standard deliveries are scheduled for 2+ business days after ordering, and next-day delivery may be available if you order before noon CST. Same-day delivery is rare and depends on local supplier and truck availability in your zip code. You will get a delivery window and instructions once your order is confirmed.
Spring through early fall is generally the easiest time for deliveries and installations because ground conditions are more predictable and crews are readily available. Avoid scheduling during heavy rain or freeze-thaw transitions when drainage and compaction can be compromised. If you need winter work, confirm site access and whether trucks can safely reach your location.
Permit and zoning rules can vary by county, township, and HOA in the Millcreek area, so check with local planning or building departments and your HOA before starting. Some projects, especially driveway changes or work near right-of-way lines, may require permits or inspections. Hello Gravel can deliver materials, but it cannot determine permit requirements for your specific property.
Labor and installation vary based on material handling, site prep, and finishing needs. Materials that need more grading, compaction, or edging typically increase labor time, and difficult site access or slope work adds cost. Get written estimates from contractors and factor in local labor rates, site complexity, and any required permits.
For drainage and erosion control, choose materials that promote water movement and resist displacement, paired with proper grading and, when needed, geotextile fabric or retaining features. Coarse, well-graded aggregates are commonly used to improve drainage, while blended approaches can stabilize slopes and reduce runoff. Discuss your slope angle and soil conditions with our team so we can suggest suitable local options.
Many HOAs and municipalities have rules about driveway appearance, material color, and permeability that can limit your options. Before ordering, review HOA guidelines and local code requirements to ensure your chosen material and finish comply. If you’re unsure, our customer service can help you check common restrictions, but always verify with your local authority.
Coverage depends on material density and the desired depth, but a common planning practice is to account for a 5% to 15% waste factor for spreading and compaction. Our online material calculator gives more precise estimates based on project dimensions and desired depth, and our team can help refine quantities for your site conditions. Ordering a little extra helps avoid delays from underordering.
Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for many Millcreek zip codes, subject to supplier and truck availability. Same-day delivery is uncommon and depends on local supplier capacity, so check the checkout calendar or contact our team for urgent needs. We’ll confirm available dates and any additional charges when you order.
Clear the drop area of vehicles and obstacles, mark the preferred dump location, and check for overhead wires or low tree branches that could block trucks. Make sure access is suitable for a tri-axle dump truck and notify us of narrow roads or private driveways so we can coordinate. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout and the driver will assess if it is safe and feasible on arrival.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color and texture can vary; if the material seems wrong or there is a delivery issue, contact customer service as soon as possible and provide photos and details. We will work with the supplier and hauler to review the issue and outline next steps according to our policies. Review our refund and resolution guidance for specifics on how we handle disputes.
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.
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!
