Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Duson, LA

Yes. Hello Gravel serves Duson (70529) and nearby West Louisiana zip codes where our supplier and hauler network is available. Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Check your zip code at checkout to confirm availability and any local delivery details.

Pick a material based on drainage needs, load, and maintenance expectations: well-graded mixes work for driveways that need good compaction and load-bearing, while open-graded materials help with drainage. Consider Duson's wet climate when choosing materials—better drainage and stable base layers reduce rutting. Use our material quiz or contact our sales team for a recommendation based on your specific driveway size and use.

Think about appearance, drainage, and weed control: decorative mixes provide color and texture, while crushed stone or compactable mixes create stable paths and beds. Local sourcing means colors and textures can vary, so ask for guidance or add color preferences in Order Notes. Also plan quantities and consider seasonal needs like stormwater management in West Louisiana.

Yes. Due to regional sourcing, shell, limestone, and other aggregates can vary in color, texture, and size depending on local geology. Photos are a guide but not an exact match; if appearance is critical, request details in Order Notes or ask for a local supplier description. We’ll help set expectations so you get a product suited to Duson’s conditions.

Costs vary by local availability and demand; materials sourced nearby are often less expensive because of lower hauling distances, but prices depend on supply, season, and the specific product. Compare per-ton pricing and delivery fees rather than just the material price to find the best value. Contact our team for a zip-code-specific quote to see current local rates for Duson.

Longevity depends on material choice, site prep, and use: a well-prepared base with proper drainage can keep a driveway or path functional for many years, while poor drainage or heavy use will shorten lifespan. In Duson’s humid, rainy climate, materials that shed water and are periodically maintained will perform better. Plan for occasional top-ups and maintenance after heavy storms.

Estimate material needs by calculating area and desired depth; our online calculator converts cubic yards to tons for common aggregates used in Duson. Different materials have different weights and compaction rates, so we provide both volume and weight estimates to help plan delivery and placement. Contact our team if you’d like help running the numbers for your specific project.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess conditions upon arrival; we recommend planning for some manual spreading or renting tools if you need precise placement. For larger projects, discuss options with our team ahead of delivery.

Contractors should confirm quantities, delivery windows, and any special site instructions when ordering for job sites in Duson. We support commercial orders with scheduled deliveries, and many contractors benefit from bulk pricing and flexible delivery dates. Always verify access routes and staging space to ensure safe dump truck delivery.

Contact our customer service as soon as possible—orders are easiest to change before they are dispatched. We’ll do our best to accommodate modifications, but changes may be limited once a supplier and hauler are assigned. Review order notes and confirm details at checkout to minimize the need for changes.

Natural materials vary, so some difference in color and texture is normal due to regional sourcing. If the material seems significantly different from what you ordered, contact customer service promptly and we will work with the supplier to address concerns. Refer to our refund and issue resolution process for next steps.

Open-graded aggregates and well-draining mixes are generally better where frequent rain occurs, while durable base layers help stabilize slopes and paths. Combining a compactable base with a top layer of free-draining material reduces erosion and standing water in Duson’s climate. If erosion is severe, consider geotextiles or professional advice as part of a larger site solution.

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.
