Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Augusta, KY

Coverage varies by material and depth. As a rough guide, one ton of gravel, sand, dirt, or stone will typically cover about 80–100 sq ft at a 2-inch depth and about 25–35 sq ft at a 6-inch depth; lighter or coarser materials may cover more or less. For your project, measure the area and desired depth and use our material calculator or contact our team for a tailored estimate.

Hello Gravel is an online marketplace that connects you with local suppliers and haulers to deliver bulk materials. You place an order on our site, choose a delivery date, and our contracted dump truck fleets deliver materials sourced regionally to reflect local geology; check your zip code for availability and note that minimum orders are 3 tons.

Start by calculating square footage (length x width) and choose an appropriate depth for the base (commonly 3–6 inches depending on use). Convert area and depth to tons using our calculator or the rule-of-thumb conversion, then request a quote to see per-ton pricing and delivery fees; this gives a realistic total cost without guessing prices up front.

Truck capacity varies, but a typical local dump truck (tri-axle) delivers roughly 10–14 tons of material. Using the coverage rule of thumb (about 80–100 sq ft per ton at 2 inches), a full truckload can cover roughly 800–1,400 sq ft at a 2-inch depth, with coverage decreasing as required depth increases.

Buying in bulk, ordering the right quantity, and sourcing regionally are the best ways to save. Compare pickup versus delivered quotes, order during non-peak seasons if possible, and use our material calculator to avoid overordering; Hello Gravel also shows transparent pricing and local supplier options to help you compare.

Some homeowners use a compacted gravel-and-dirt base as a low-cost alternative for paths or temporary hardscapes, but it is not a structural substitute for poured concrete or engineered pavement. For driveways or heavy-load areas you should choose materials and compaction methods designed for bearing loads or consult a contractor for long-term solutions.

Weight and cost depend on truck size, material density, and local pricing. One truckload could weigh anywhere from about 6 to 15 tons depending on vehicle and material; for pricing, request a quote for your zip code and project specs so you get accurate per-ton and delivery fees.

Match the material to the job: choose well-draining mixes for drainage, angular crushed stone for load-bearing bases, and finer materials for top dressing or planting beds. Consider local climate and soil conditions in West Kentucky, the aesthetic you want, and how much traffic the surface will receive; use our aggregate quiz or contact our team for tailored recommendations.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST; drivers use contracted dump trucks and may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion. Prepare a clear drop location, remove obstacles, confirm access for a tri-axle truck, and note any permit or HOA rules that apply before delivery.

Contact our customer service as soon as possible; we will do our best to accommodate changes before the order is processed and dispatched. If there is an issue with the delivery or material, reach out promptly and we will work with local suppliers and haulers to resolve it according to our policies.

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.
