Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in New Richmond, IN

Homeowners in New Richmond typically order a mix of materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, base layers, drainage, and decorative landscaping. Choose a material based on function (drainage, stabilization, appearance) rather than name alone; for example, use well-draining mixes for driveways and finer base materials under patios. Regional sourcing means color and texture will reflect West Indiana geology, so expect natural variation. If you need help choosing, use Hello Gravel's material quiz or contact our team.

Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, and standard delivery typically requires 2 or more business days from order. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, but availability depends on local suppliers and trucking schedules. Confirm your zip code and requested delivery date at checkout to see exact options.

Indiana’s freeze-thaw cycle and a soggy spring can affect delivery and material performance, so schedule heavy deliveries for drier months when possible. Use more stable, well-draining material mixes for areas exposed to runoff or freeze-thaw to reduce washout and settling. Expect slower lead times and potential delays during peak spring and fall seasons, and check the forecast before scheduling deliveries.

A quick rule: 1 cubic yard covers about 324 square feet at 1 inch depth (108 square feet at 3 inches). Typical ranges: small pathways 1-3 cubic yards, patio base 2-8 cubic yards depending on size, and residential driveways often need 5-20 cubic yards depending on width, length, and depth. Convert to weight using 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.2–1.6 tons (varies by material) and use Hello Gravel’s calculator for a project-specific estimate.

Many New Richmond-area suppliers offer same-week or next-day delivery depending on stock and schedule, with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST. Dump trucks need clear access: a stable surface, room to turn (often 12–14 feet of clear width), and no low-hanging utilities; narrow lanes, soft ground, or steep slopes can prevent safe delivery. Add delivery access notes at checkout and our team will confirm any truck restrictions before dispatch.

Local rules can apply: check New Richmond or county offices for driveway permits, road weight limits, and stormwater or erosion controls that could affect your project. HOA rules may restrict visible materials, colors, or delivery times, so review HOA guidelines before ordering. If you are unsure, contact your local town office or your HOA and tell our team—we can help flag potential concerns.

On sloped lots or areas with runoff, choose coarser, well-draining materials and consider geotextile fabric or a compacted base to limit erosion and movement. Design grading to direct water away from foundations, and pair aggregates with drainage features like shallow swales or French drains where needed. For front-yard projects near roadways, check local stormwater rules and consider professional installation for larger drainage solutions.

Material prices and availability vary by supplier distance and local geology; New Richmond’s small size means fewer immediate suppliers, so some materials may be hauled from farther away and cost slightly more. Hello Gravel sources regionally to keep options local, but exact pricing depends on material type, quantity, and delivery distance. Get multiple quotes through our site to compare options and lead times for your zip code.

For small, simple tasks like topping a pathway or basic landscaping, many homeowners can handle materials themselves using rented tools and a helper. Larger jobs—long driveways, significant grading, steep slopes, or projects requiring compaction, retaining walls, or drainage—are often safer and more durable when done by a contractor with equipment and permits. If you need help deciding, share project details with our team and we can suggest options and typical labor requirements.

Lead times are generally 2+ business days for standard delivery, with next-day options available for qualified orders placed before noon CST; however, lead times stretch during spring and early summer when landscaping and driveway work peaks. Fall can be busy for contractors finishing exterior projects before winter, and winter weather can delay or limit deliveries. Plan ahead for peak seasons and check availability for your zip code on our site.

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.
