Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Hanna, IN

Homeowners typically order a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, drainage, patios, garden beds, and grading. These materials come in different sizes and mixes, so expect regional color and texture variation based on local geology. Use our material guides or contact our team for recommendations based on your project.

Choose based on function first — load-bearing areas need more angular, compactable material while drainage areas benefit from coarser mixes. Consider appearance, budget, and local climate (freeze-thaw and heavy rain). If you are unsure, use our material quiz or call our team for guidance.

Quantity depends on area and depth; for example, a 2-car driveway (about 12 ft by 40 ft) at 4 inches deep needs roughly 6 cubic yards, while a 10 ft by 10 ft patio at 2 inches deep needs about 0.6 cubic yards. Tonnage varies by material density, so these translate differently for gravel, sand, dirt, and stone. Use our online calculator or contact us with project dimensions for a precise estimate.

Freeze-thaw cycles, wet spring soil, and winter snow can limit access and affect how materials compact and settle. Wet ground can prevent heavy trucks from reaching your drop spot and may delay delivery; winter deliveries may be slower or require extra precautions. Plan around local weather and allow extra time in spring and winter.

Most simple material deliveries do not require a permit, but structural changes, driveway expansions, or work in a right-of-way often do. Many HOAs have rules on visible materials and driveway work, so check local ordinances and your HOA covenants before ordering. When in doubt, contact your town office or HOA to confirm requirements.

Delivery range and fees vary by supplier and distance; Hello Gravel serves Hanna-area zip codes but exact availability depends on your specific address. We offer standard delivery in 2+ business days, next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and a 3-ton minimum. Check your zip code on the site or contact our team for a delivery quote.

Clear a straight, level access route and mark the preferred drop location to help the driver place material safely. Protect landscaping and curb areas, move vehicles, and confirm no underground utilities or irrigation heads are in the drop zone. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but the driver will decide if it is safe and feasible on arrival.

Contractors usually charge for material by the ton or cubic yard, add a delivery or haul fee, and bill labor separately for grading, compaction, and installation. Installation costs vary with site access, complexity, and equipment needed, so get itemized quotes from contractors. Comparing material-only pricing via Hello Gravel with contractor bids helps separate material cost from installation labor.

Hardscape aggregates like crushed stone and larger stone can last decades with minimal upkeep, usually requiring occasional top-ups every few years. Sand and loose fines shift more and may need more frequent replenishment or raking. Topsoil and dirt used for planting require ongoing landscaping maintenance; exact costs depend on project size and local labor rates.

Common errors include underestimating quantities, not planning for compaction and waste, ignoring drainage needs, and failing to check access for delivery trucks. Ordering too early in wet seasons or not confirming permits and HOA rules can cause delays or added costs. Use our calculator, plan the drop location, and contact our team early to reduce surprises.

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.
