Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Gratz, KY

Consider how the surface will be used, drainage needs, desired appearance, and maintenance. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, and stone each have different strengths: some compact well for driveways, others are better for drainage or planting beds. Use our material calculator and aggregate quiz to estimate quantities and get guidance, and add notes about color or texture preferences at checkout.

Common projects include driveways and parking pads, base layers for patios and pavers, garden beds and topsoil work, erosion control and drainage swales, and road or lane repairs on rural properties. These materials are versatile, and choosing the right size and gradation will depend on the project's structural and drainage requirements.

Gratz sees seasonal rain and freeze-thaw cycles that influence compaction and drainage. Pick materials and particle sizes that shed water and resist frost heave for driveways and structural work, and avoid placing loose fines in areas prone to standing water. Schedule major deliveries and grading during drier months when possible to get better compaction and fewer delivery access issues.

Measure the project area (length x width) and decide the desired depth, then convert that volume to cubic yards and to tons using our online calculator or the site’s unit converters. For example, a 10 ft x 20 ft area at 3 inches deep is roughly 1.85 cubic yards; use our calculator to convert to tons since different materials have different densities. Remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and round up to allow for compaction and settling.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. You can choose a delivery date during checkout, and pricing and availability depend on your zip code. Deliveries are made by local contracted dump truck fleets (often tri-axle trucks), and regional sourcing means material appearance may vary.

Trucks serving Gratz can usually access most rural properties, but access depends on road width, overhead obstructions, and ground firmness. Provide clear delivery instructions and a preferred drop location in Order Notes, and be prepared to move vehicles or remove low branches on the scheduled day. Drivers will assess access on arrival and may ask to place material where it can be delivered safely.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site conditions. Request spreading in the Order Notes at checkout so the driver can plan, and be ready to accept that the driver will assess whether spreading is safe to perform on arrival. For guaranteed spreading, consider hiring local labor or a landscape contractor.

Delivery cost depends on distance from suppliers, material type and weight, quantity ordered, and site access or special handling needs. Seasonal demand and local supplier availability can also affect price. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing during checkout so you can compare options and get an exact quote for your zip code before confirming.

Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, color and texture can vary by supplier and locality; this is normal. If you're concerned, request photos or add color/texture preferences in Order Notes before ordering and contact customer service promptly after delivery so we can help assess options. See our refund and issue resolution guidance for next steps.

Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; it's generally easier to modify before the order is processed or dispatched. Changes depend on supplier and truck scheduling and are not guaranteed, but we will do our best to accommodate requests. For last-minute issues, contact customer service right away so we can coordinate with the hauling team.

Permit rules vary by county and township, so check with your local government or county road department before starting work. You should also call 811 to have utilities marked before digging or grading, and review any homeowner association rules where applicable. Hello Gravel can supply materials but does not handle local permitting.

Plan deliveries in advance to secure trucks and materials, especially in seasonal peaks, and stage drop locations to minimize rehandling. Use consolidated orders to reduce per-ton delivery costs, communicate site access and staging needs in the order notes, and coordinate multiple deliveries if your project requires ongoing supply. Contractors can request quotes and invoicing options through our sales team for large or repeat-orders.

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.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
