Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Bedford, KY

Consider how the space will be used, how much traffic it will get, and how you want it to look. Think about drainage needs and maintenance: permeable materials help with runoff, while denser materials compact more for driveways. Use our material calculator and aggregate quiz to compare options like gravel, sand, dirt, stone, and ask our team for recommendations based on your specific project and budget.

Bedford experiences seasonal rain and temperature swings that can affect settling and drainage. Choose materials that handle wet conditions and freeze-thaw cycles, and plan for good grading so water moves away from structures. Because we source materials regionally, you may see local color and texture variations that perform differently in this climate.

Measure the length and width of the area and decide on the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards (area in square feet x depth in feet ÷ 27) or tons using our calculator. For small landscaping beds, depths often range from 1 to 3 inches; for driveways or bases, depths are typically greater. If you need help, send dimensions or photos to our team and we can double-check your estimate.

Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. We route orders to trusted local suppliers and scheduled dump truck fleets, and you can pick a preferred delivery date at checkout. Keep in mind minimum orders apply and tailgate spreading is offered at the driver's discretion with no guarantees.

Share details about driveway width, overhead wires, low-clearance trees, steep grades, and any soft or muddy areas where a heavy truck might bog down. Add photos and clear delivery instructions in the Order Notes so haulers know where to dump and whether you need a street permit or offload help. Good site information helps avoid delays and extra charges from re-routing or failed delivery attempts.

Price depends on the material type, haul distance from the local supplier, the amount ordered, and any special delivery requirements like tight access or spreading. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing upfront and may offer free delivery in many areas; minimum orders typically start at 3 tons. For contractor-level quantities or repeat orders, contact our sales team to discuss scheduling and volume needs.

Permit requirements vary by city, county, and homeowners association, so check with Bedford or Shelby County offices before placing material in public right-of-way or protected areas. For private property deliveries, permits are usually not needed, but local rules can apply for curbside dumping or large-scale work. We can help by noting permit needs in your delivery instructions, but customers are responsible for securing required approvals.

Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; it's easiest to accommodate changes before the order is processed and dispatched. Changes after a truck is scheduled may be limited and could incur fees depending on supplier and hauler policies. We will do our best to help but cannot guarantee all modifications.

Contractors can order larger quantities, schedule deliveries to match project timelines, and work with our team for repeat or multi-site logistics. Provide detailed site access notes and project schedules to ensure on-time deliveries from local suppliers. For volume pricing or regular deliveries, contact our sales team to discuss options and account setup.

You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading at their discretion based on safety and equipment constraints. We do not guarantee spreading services, so plan to have tools or labor ready if precise spreading is required. If you need assisted placement, discuss options with our team before ordering so we can note the request and advise on feasibility.

Slope the finished surface to direct water away from foundations and toward approved drainage areas, and consider using permeable aggregates where runoff control is important. Prepare a stable base and use edging to keep materials contained and reduce migration. If you have complex grading or stormwater concerns, consult a local contractor or engineer for site-specific advice.

Most surface materials need periodic attention like raking, replenishing thin spots, and addressing weeds or erosion after heavy rains. Compaction may increase stability for driveways, while decorative areas may need topping up every few years depending on traffic and weather. Plan for seasonal checks after winter and heavy storms to catch issues early and extend the life of your installation.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
