Why Park Ridge Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Park Ridge is a community of 38,350 residents experiencing steady expansion that translates directly into ongoing demand for home and neighborhood projects. A 1.20% annual growth rate means more remodeling, new driveways, patios, and yard upgrades rather than a short-lived building boom; homeowners are investing incrementally in outdoor living and property maintenance. With 228 sunny days and 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, the local climate supports year-round work but also requires materials that balance drainage and durability. In this context, high-quality bulk supplies—gravel, sand, dirt, topsoil, mulch, and stone—matter because they influence water management, plant health, and the longevity of hardscapes. Local sourcing matters too: materials that reflect regional geology will perform more predictably in Park Ridge’s soils and climate, reducing callbacks and rework for both DIYers and contractors.Popular Projects in Park Ridge This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Park Ridge Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Park Ridge.
Delivery cost depends on material type, quantity, distance from local suppliers, and site access. Hello Gravel lists clear upfront pricing and a minimum order of 3 tons; extra fees may apply for next-day requests, tight access, or long-haul deliveries. For an exact number, get an online quote or call the sales team with your Park Ridge zip (60068) and project details.
Choose materials based on function: drainage needs, load-bearing, and maintenance. In Park Ridge's freeze-thaw climate, pick aggregates and soils that compact well and shed water, and consider top layers vs base layers when planning. Use the Hello Gravel material quiz or sales team to match gravel, sand, dirt, stone options to your specific project and site conditions.
Spring through early fall is the easiest time for deliveries and installation because ground is not frozen and crews are readily available. Winters in Park Ridge can bring freeze-thaw issues; if you must deliver in colder months, expect possible delays and plan for thaw-related handling. Hello Gravel standard delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Yes, local suppliers and contracted haulers deliver to both residential addresses and job sites in Park Ridge. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and typically uses tri-axle dump trucks, so check driveway and access constraints before ordering. If you have limited access or need a small quantity, contact the team for options or staging suggestions.
Local ordinances and HOA rules can limit surface types, colors, or how close improvements sit to property lines, so check with Park Ridge city codes and your HOA before ordering. Permits may be required for new driveways or significant grading work. If you’re unsure, contact city planning or your HOA and consult our sales team for guidance on materials that commonly meet local standards.
Freeze-thaw cycles can cause shifting and settling if materials retain water or lack proper base layers. Choose materials and installation approaches that promote drainage and minimize fines that trap moisture; well-graded bases and good surface drainage reduce frost heave. Discuss seasonal considerations with suppliers so you pick aggregates and soils suited for Park Ridge’s winter conditions.
Typical homeowner orders vary by project: small garden beds and mulching jobs often use 1-3 tons, walkways and small patios 3-6 tons, driveway overlays 10-20 tons, and full driveway installs 20-50+ tons depending on dimensions and depth. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator to convert area and depth to tons for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar materials. If you’re a contractor ordering bulk, ask about staging logistics and possible volume pricing.
Many local suppliers offer contractor pricing or bulk discounts, but offerings vary by supplier. Hello Gravel connects you with local vendors and can help request contractor rates, but installation services depend on the supplier or local contractors rather than Hello Gravel. For installation, ask suppliers or our team to recommend local installers and to coordinate delivery timing with your crew.
Clear an accessible drop zone, mark the exact delivery spot, and remove obstacles like low-hanging branches or cars. Ensure the truck can safely enter and exit, and check for local parking or street closure rules if a sidewalk or street block is needed. Add delivery notes at checkout and contact the team if you need special handling; tailgate spreading is sometimes available at the driver’s discretion but not guaranteed.
Natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may differ from photos; note color preferences in the order notes but expect natural variation. Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request order changes; modifications are easier before dispatch and depend on supplier processing. For delivery issues or product concerns, reach out to customer service promptly and refer to our policies for resolution steps.
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.
