Choose materials that drain well and resist washout for flood-prone yards and driveways. In West Louisiana conditions, mixes that promote drainage and compactability are often recommended. Consider your project goals and site conditions, and our team can suggest suitable options for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and related uses.

Extreme weather and saturated ground in rainy seasons can affect delivery access and installation quality, so many customers prefer drier months for spreading and compaction. Standard delivery is available year-round, but rainy periods can increase lead times or require rescheduling. We recommend checking local weather and planning installations for dry windows when possible.

Permit and HOA rules vary by property and neighborhood; some parcels require permits for significant grading or changes to driveways. Before ordering, check local permitting requirements with Jefferson Parish and your HOA rules if applicable. If you need help, contact our team and we can suggest steps to confirm whether permits or approvals are needed.

Contractors typically measure area dimensions and desired depth, then convert to cubic yards or tons using a calculator. For common projects, our material calculator and aggregate quiz can convert square feet and depth into tons for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar products. When in doubt, get a short onsite measurement or ask our team for guidance, and allow a small overage for compaction and settling.

Lead times depend on supplier stock, truck availability, and order size; common windows are 2+ business days for standard delivery. Next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, but larger or special-order materials can take longer. We recommend booking larger deliveries as early as possible to secure preferred dates.

Materials that promote water movement and resist displacement are ideal for drainage and erosion control. Layering approaches and proper gradation often work best: a base that allows water to pass with a surface that resists washout. Ask our team for recommendations that match your slope, soil type, and intended use for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates.

Prices and availability can vary across West Louisiana because of regional sourcing and haul distance. Neighboring towns may have slightly different material colors, textures, and delivery fees due to geology and supplier networks. Use our site to compare quotes across nearby zip codes and pick the option that balances cost, material appearance, and delivery timing.

You can request placement preferences and optional tailgate spreading at checkout, but spreading is performed at the driver’s discretion for safety reasons and is not guaranteed. Drivers typically deliver with tri-axle dump trucks and will follow site access and local regulations. Provide clear directions and note any access limitations at checkout to help ensure a smooth delivery.

Clear a safe drop zone, mark any underground utilities or sensitive areas, and ensure trucks have stable access to the delivery point. If you need material placed in a tight area, consider temporary protection for landscaping and communicate placement instructions in Order Notes. Early planning reduces delays and helps the driver place materials where you want them.

Natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may differ from photos; this is normal when sourcing locally. If you are concerned about appearance, request photos or samples before ordering, and add preferences in Order Notes. Contact customer service if the material seems out of spec so we can work with the supplier to resolve the issue.

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.
