Materials Available for Delivery
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.
Red Shredded Mulch
Red shredded bark and wood from hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. Good for gardening and landscaping. Helps hold moisture, block weeds, and adds a bold, red pop to your outdoors.
Topsoil
High-grade soil enriched with organic matter. Perfect for landscaping, lawn establishment and repair, and for improving existing soil.
Fulfillment:
Should never be fulfilled with material that does not include an organic component, though organic components should be small.
2-10% organic is ideal
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
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.

Why Odin Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Odin is a small but active community of 1,670 residents within a larger West Illinois metro that serves 2.6+ million people. A steady 1.20% annually growth rate points to ongoing residential and light commercial projects rather than a sudden boom — this steady expansion drives continuous demand for foundation, drainage, and landscaping supplies as homeowners update yards and add hardscape features. Odin's climate profile — hardiness zone 8b, about 228/year sunny days, and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall — encourages year-round work but creates specific material needs: durable base materials for paths and driveways, well-draining mixes to manage seasonal runoff, and sun-resistant surfacing to limit fading. For homeowners, that means sourcing a mix of aggregates, soils, and topcoats that balance stability, permeability, and appearance, with attention to local color and texture that reflect regional geology.Popular Projects in Odin This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Odin Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Odin.
Homeowners and contractors in Odin typically choose materials grouped as gravel, sand, dirt, stone for base layers, top coats, grading, and drainage. Each group performs different jobs: some provide structural support, some improve drainage, and some fill or grade low spots. Regional sourcing means color and texture may vary, so check photos and order notes before delivery.
Choose materials based on site drainage, slope, and freeze-thaw concerns rather than appearance alone — gravel, sand, dirt, stone each have strengths for stability, drainage, or grading. If your site has clay or poor drainage, prioritize materials and installation techniques that improve water flow and reduce frost heave, and consider geotextile or compaction. When in doubt, use our material quiz or contact our team for guidance.
Freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal wetness can cause settling, washout, and frost heave if the wrong material or depth is used; gravel, sand, dirt, stone need proper base preparation and slope to perform well. Good drainage and correct compaction reduce movement over time, and choosing angular, well-draining mixes helps in areas with frequent freeze-thaw. Expect regional variation — local suppliers will recommend mixes suitable for West Illinois conditions.
Use area and depth to estimate material: 100 sq ft at 2 inches is about 0.62 cubic yards, and 100 sq ft at 3 inches is about 0.93 cubic yards; most landscaping and driveway jobs will require several cubic yards depending on size and depth. Hello Gravel’s online calculator can convert those volumes to tons and suggest minimum orders (our platform generally requires at least 3 tons). For precise planning, share project dimensions so we can recommend a quantity.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days from order; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Minimum orders are usually 3 tons and deliveries are made by local contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle); supplier availability and lead times can lengthen during peak season. Check your zip code on our site to see local supplier windows and exact availability for Odin.
Pricing varies by distance, material type, order size, and local supplier fees; many areas offer free delivery on qualifying orders but smaller orders or remote drops may incur extra charges. Additional costs can include next-day service fees, restricted-access fees, or taxes and local fees. You’ll see clear pricing in checkout before you confirm an order.
Some local roads, township rules, or HOAs may restrict heavy trucks or require permits, especially on narrow or residential streets. Before delivery, confirm access, observe posted weight restrictions, and check with local authorities if your property is on a private lane. If access is limited, note special instructions at checkout so suppliers can plan a safe drop location.
Spring through fall is usually best for deliveries and installation because frozen ground and heavy rains are less likely to cause delivery delays or poor compaction. Winter deliveries are possible but may be delayed by weather and could lead to extra handling if sites are frozen or covered in snow. Order early in peak season to secure preferred dates.
Common issues include choosing materials that don’t drain well, underestimating depth, and inadequate site prep which leads to settling or washout; gravel, sand, dirt, stone each need specific placement and compaction. Avoid problems by planning for drainage, ordering a bit extra for compaction and grading, marking utilities before digging, and asking for advice on material blends for your project. If something looks different than expected, contact customer service promptly to discuss options.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and if conditions allow, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival; some sites or materials may not be suitable for spreading from a dump truck. For consistent spreading, consider hiring a local landscaper or contractor after delivery.
Clear a safe, level drop area and provide accurate directions and access notes at checkout; remove low branches, park vehicles out of the way, and mark utilities before any digging. Make sure turn radius and driveway capacity are adequate for a tri-axle dump truck, and point out the preferred drop location to the driver upon arrival. If you’re unsure about access, contact our team so we can coordinate with the supplier ahead of time.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
