Materials Available for Delivery
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Why Pawnee Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Pawnee has a city population of 3,190 and sits within a growing regional market that supports steady residential and small-scale commercial building activity. A growth rate of 1.20% annually signals consistent demand for renovations, driveways, drainage work, and new landscaping as homeowners update properties and add outdoor living spaces. With 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 35.50 inches, local projects benefit from frequent workable days but still need materials that manage occasional runoff and retain moisture. Being in hardiness zone 8b means planting and erosion-control choices differ from colder parts of Illinois, so homeowners and contractors alike rely on a range of bulk materials — topsoil, crushed stone, sand, mulch, and fill dirt — to match drainage, planting, and load-bearing needs. Quality, locally sourced aggregates matter here because they reflect regional geology and perform predictably in Pawnee’s climate and seasonal patterns. Pawnee’s climate, soil tendencies, and weather cycles create specific performance expectations for materials: moderate rainfall requires mixes that shed water without excessive erosion, and extended sunny periods accelerate drying and compaction. Soils that settle or compact differently after installation make accurate tonnage calculations and proper compaction important for long-term results. For homeowners, that means picking materials based on site drainage, slope, and intended use rather than price alone. Hello Gravel helps by connecting customers to local suppliers familiar with Pawnee’s conditions, offering guidance on quantities and delivery timing so materials arrive when crews can install them properly and weather windows are optimal.Popular Projects in Pawnee This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Pawnee Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Pawnee.
Durability depends more on proper base, compaction, and drainage than a single material. Choose a material mix that compacts well and sheds water; regional options vary, so colors and texture may differ in Pawnee. Consider how you will use the driveway (vehicle weight, traffic frequency) and ask our team for suggestions based on local supplier options for gravel, sand, dirt, stone. Ordering a little extra to allow for compaction and settling is a good practice.
Pawnee sees freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal rain that can cause shifting and settling of loose materials. Use materials and construction practices that improve drainage and resist frost heave, such as a stable base layer, proper slope, and materials that do not retain water. Expect some seasonal maintenance like regrading or topping up after winter.
Spring through fall is easiest for deliveries and installations because ground conditions are more predictable and equipment access is better. Winter deliveries are possible but can be limited by frozen or muddy ground and supplier schedules, while very wet periods can make delivery sites difficult to access. Schedule early, especially for spring projects, and use our checkout calendar to pick a delivery date.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers who commonly deliver to residential addresses in Pawnee, subject to access and local restrictions. Deliveries are made by dump trucks (typically tri-axle) and our minimum order is 3 tons; narrow drives, overhead wires, or tight turns can affect where the driver can dump. Check your zip code (62558) at checkout and let us know special access notes.
Measure the area in square feet and decide the depth you need in inches, then convert to cubic yards with: (area in ft2 x depth in ft) / 27. For example, a 10 ft x 50 ft driveway at 3 in depth is (500 x 0.25) / 27 ≈ 4.6 cubic yards. Use our online material calculator to convert cubic yards to tons and account for compaction and waste; order a small overage to be safe.
Standard deliveries typically require 2 or more business days for scheduling. Next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, but availability depends on local supplier schedules and seasonal demand. We confirm a delivery window after the order and will notify you if timing changes.
Materials with higher permeability promote drainage and reduce runoff, while finer mixes with more fines can lock in place but may hold water if not properly graded. Proper slope, edging, and a compacted base layer play a big role in reducing maintenance needs. Expect periodic maintenance such as regrading, adding top material, or clearing clogged areas depending on use and weather.
Delivery costs depend on material type, quantity ordered, distance from supplier, site access, and any special services like next-day delivery or tailgate spreading. Minimum order requirements and seasonal demand can also affect price. The fastest way to get an accurate cost is to request a quote through our site or contact our team with your zip code and project details.
Small projects like a basic walkway or simple top-up are often suitable for experienced DIYers and can save on labor costs, while larger jobs that require grading, compaction, or drainage solutions usually benefit from a contractor. Contractors bring equipment and experience to ensure proper base preparation and long-term performance, which can reduce future maintenance. Consider the scope, your comfort with tools and equipment, and request quotes to compare total cost vs DIY.
Local rules may apply for projects that change driveway aprons, alter drainage, or add retaining walls; permits or inspections could be required by the Village of Pawnee or Sangamon County. Homeowners associations may also have rules about material appearance or placement. Check local permitting offices or utility companies before ordering materials; Hello Gravel can help you plan but does not handle permit applications.
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.
