Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Hamlin, KY

Think about load, drainage, appearance, and maintenance needs. For Hamlin projects, consider local grading and drainage and choose a material mix (gravel, sand, dirt, stone) that compacts well and matches the look you want. Use our material calculator and reach out to our team with your zip code for help sizing and choosing the best option.

Durability depends on proper base preparation, compaction, drainage, and the material's particle size and binding properties. West Kentucky weather—seasonal rain and occasional freeze-thaw—makes drainage and a stable base particularly important. Regular maintenance like regrading and topping can extend performance for most materials.

A typical one-car driveway (about 10 by 20 feet) needs roughly 2 to 6 cubic yards of material depending on depth and whether you include a base layer; a small patio (about 10 by 10 feet) often needs 1 to 3 cubic yards. Tons per cubic yard vary by material, so check the calculator or give us your dimensions and preferred depth and we will estimate yards and tons. Remember Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons for delivery, so plan accordingly for small jobs.

We offer standard delivery (2+ business days) and an optional next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries typically use dump trucks (tri-axle) and have a 3-ton minimum; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed. Remote or tight-access sites can affect drop location and may require additional coordination.

Next-day delivery is often available if you order before noon CST and pay the additional fee, but availability depends on local supplier schedules. Same-day delivery is rare in rural areas and depends on supplier and truck availability. Check your zip code on our site or contact our team to confirm what’s possible for your address.

Late spring through early fall is usually best for landscape projects because soils are drier and weather is more predictable. Deliveries are possible year-round, but winter freeze, heavy rains, or muddy conditions can delay work and make delivery or spreading more difficult. Plan projects with some scheduling flexibility during wet or cold months.

Permit requirements vary by location and project type; simple repairs or driveway resurfacing often do not need permits, but changes affecting drainage, right-of-way, or wetlands may. Contact Hamlin or the county building and planning office to confirm local rules before you start. When in doubt, get local guidance to avoid fines or required rework.

Contractors weigh price, timing, storage, and responsibility for materials. For large jobs they may prefer to source directly for volume discounts and timing control, while smaller projects or those needing fast delivery often use Hello Gravel to simplify ordering and scheduling. Many contractors also use our platform to compare local suppliers and schedule deliveries to match their work sequence.

Ask about particle size, permeability, how well the material compacts, and local track record for similar applications. Also discuss expected maintenance, how the material behaves in heavy rain, and whether a geotextile or base layer is recommended. For steep slopes or severe erosion issues, consider consulting an engineer or local contractor for a site-specific plan.

Delivery cost depends on distance from the supplier, access to the delivery site, the quantity ordered, and how quickly you need the material. Prices vary across suppliers and neighborhoods in West Kentucky, so the most accurate way to get a price is to enter your zip code (42076) on our site or request a quote. We show transparent pricing and any delivery fees up front before you check out.

Because we source regionally, color, texture, and sizing can vary based on local geology, so materials may not exactly match photos. You can add color or texture preferences in the order notes, and we recommend inspecting the load at delivery and contacting customer service if something seems different. Our team will work with suppliers to address quality concerns according to our policy.

Contact our customer team as soon as possible—changes are easiest before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but some changes may not be possible once a truck is scheduled. For the quickest help, call our sales team or use the order management options on the website.

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.
