Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Bourg, LA

Choose materials that drain well and resist washout. In Bourg's climate, mixes that include larger, angular particles on a compacted base perform better; consider combining proper base preparation with surface materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone to improve stability and reduce rutting.

Flooding and poor drainage increase the need for raised grades, stable bases, and materials that resist being carried away by water. Plan for slope, swales, or drainage pipes, and choose materials and installation methods that allow water to pass through or be directed away from structures.

Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Rural and remote locations around Bourg may have longer lead times, and minimum orders generally apply, so check availability for your zip code.

Per-ton and delivery prices vary by material type, haul distance, order size, and local supplier rates. Use Hello Gravel's online quote tool or request a quote for your zip code to see transparent pricing for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and delivery options.

Aim for the drier months when possible—late fall through early spring typically has fewer heavy rain events in West Louisiana. Avoid peak rainy and hurricane seasons, and build extra buffer into your schedule for unexpected storms.

Regulations vary by parish and HOA, so always check with Lafourche Parish or your HOA before finalizing material choices. Many local rules address drainage, setbacks, and impervious surface area rather than specific aggregate types, so confirm requirements early.

Most surface materials require occasional topping up, regrading, and weed control, especially after heavy rains or floods. Plan for periodic replenishment and simple upkeep like raking, adding material to low spots, and ensuring drainage features remain clear.

For erosion control, combine heavier, angular materials with proper anchoring and vegetation or structural measures like terraces, retaining walls, or geotextile fabric. A layered approach—stabilizing the slope, directing water, and protecting the surface—usually gives the best long-term results.

Next-day delivery is often possible for orders placed early, but same-day delivery is limited and depends on local supplier and truck availability. Check Hello Gravel's online availability for your zip code or contact our team to see what options exist for your project.

Include haul distance, site access and drop location, required staging or offloading equipment, permit or curb cut needs, seasonal delays, and whether tailgate spreading or special handling is requested. Clear communication about site constraints and precise quantities helps avoid surprise charges.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the target depth, then use a material calculator to convert cubic feet to tons, and round up 5-10% for compaction and waste. Hello Gravel's online calculator and sales team can help verify quantities for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar materials.

Deliveries typically arrive by tri-axle dump truck from a contracted hauler; drivers may provide limited tailgate spreading at their discretion. Make sure access and parking are clear, mark the preferred drop location, and notify the driver or Hello Gravel of any site restrictions ahead of time.

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.
