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.
River Rock
Naturally rounded, decorative stone for landscaping, garden beds, and water features. Typically 1-2” in size, with options for larger sizes upon request. Comes in a variety of colors that vary based on location and natural stone availability, so please be sure to specify if you have color preferences.
#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.
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.
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.

Why Scheller Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Scheller has a population of 580, set within a larger regional market whose metro area population is 2.6+ million. That steady expansion — growing at about 1.20% annually — translates into a predictable rise in renovation, infill, and small-scale development work: more homeowners updating yards, driveways, and drainage, and contractors responding to steady local demand. Scheller's climate and geography (228 sunny days annually, 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b) shape which materials perform best. Moderate rainfall paired with abundant sun means projects often need materials that balance drainage and erosion control with UV and heat tolerance. For homeowners that translates into careful choices across gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and landscape stone; contractors look for consistent local aggregates that work with the regional soil and seasonal patterns. Quality bulk materials and correct grading matter here because they determine long-term performance for paths, beds, driveways, and grading work.Popular Projects in Scheller This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Scheller Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Scheller.
Homeowners in Scheller typically order a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, stone for driveways, patios, beds, and grading work. These materials are used as base layers, leveling fill, surface dressing, or for improving drainage depending on the project. Choice often depends on local availability and the specific look and function you want.
Pick materials based on function first: support and compaction for driveways, stable base for patios, and good drainage for beds and slopes. Scheller’s regional sourcing can affect texture and color, and local freeze-thaw patterns make drainage and compaction especially important, so consult our material calculator or sales team if you are unsure. We can help match the right group of materials (gravel, sand, dirt, stone) to your site and use.
Late spring through early fall is generally the best time to schedule delivery and installation in Scheller, when ground is dry and weather is more predictable. Avoid seasonal thaw and heavy rain windows in early spring and late fall when sites can be muddy or frozen, which complicates delivery and compaction. If you need faster timing, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and uses dump trucks (typically tri-axle) for delivery. Standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but that service is not guaranteed.
Delivery costs depend on quantity, material type, distance from local suppliers, site access, and any requested services like spreading. Because Scheller is served regionally, prices vary; use our online checkout to check your zip code for availability and transparent pricing or contact our team for a quote. We show delivery fees up front so you can compare options before ordering.
Some projects may require local permits or HOA approval, especially for driveway changes, curb cuts, or significant grading and filling. Check with the Marion County or local Scheller authorities and any homeowners association before you order so you can avoid delays. If you’re unsure, our sales team can suggest common steps to verify local rules.
Contractors often recommend clearing and grading the area, marking where truck access and drop zones will be, arranging a staging area, and calling utility locate before delivery. Proper compaction, geotextile placement, and planned drainage are common advice to ensure the material performs well and reduces rework. Communicate access limitations and slope details at checkout so suppliers and drivers can plan the safest drop.
Freeze-thaw cycles can cause poorly drained bases to heave or settle, so choosing well-draining materials and designing positive slopes is important in Scheller. Use materials and installation methods that promote drainage and limit water retention, and consider extra depth for base materials where freeze depth is a concern. Proper grading, compacted base layers, and edge restraints help maintain long-term performance.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes, since modifications are easier before your order is dispatched. If there’s an issue after delivery, reach out to customer service with photos and details so we can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve it; refunds and adjustments follow our published policies. For urgent changes before delivery, call or text our team for the fastest response.
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.
