Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Egan, LA

Homeowners in Egan commonly use a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, patios, grading, drainage solutions, and garden beds. These materials serve different roles like base layers, surface finishes, or fill, and the exact choice depends on load, drainage needs, and appearance. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture and color may vary with local geology.

Pick a material based on how the area will be used: higher-traffic or vehicle areas need materials that compact well and shed water, while decorative spaces can prioritize color and texture. Consider drainage, slope, and how much compaction or base work will be done. If you are unsure, use our material calculator or contact our team for guidance.

Egan's heat, humidity, and heavy rain can lead to faster settling, washout, and vegetation growth in loose materials, and may reduce long-term stability if drainage is poor. Choose materials and installation methods that promote good drainage and resistance to erosion, and plan for periodic maintenance after heavy storms. Regional sourcing means materials are chosen with local climate in mind, but site prep still matters.

Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks, commonly tri-axle. Delivery fees can vary by exact zip code, access, and distance, and you can choose your preferred delivery date at checkout.

Quantities vary by project size and depth, but typical ranges are: small walkways 1-3 cubic yards, small patios 3-6 cubic yards, and single-car driveways 8-20 cubic yards depending on length and base depth. Larger driveway rebuilds or grading projects can require several dozen cubic yards. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our sales team with your project dimensions for a precise estimate.

Local parish ordinances or homeowners associations may have rules about visible materials, changes to drainage, curb cuts, or large amounts of fill on a property, so it is wise to check before ordering. Small deliveries for typical landscaping rarely require permits, but major grading, retaining walls, or changes to stormwater flow might. When in doubt, contact your parish or HOA and tell our team if any permit or access restrictions apply.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if it can be done safely, but this service is not guaranteed. Compaction and removal of old material are usually not provided by delivery drivers and are best handled by a local contractor. You can request spreading at checkout and discuss project needs with our team to arrange additional services when available.

Extra fees can apply for next-day delivery, long distances, difficult site access, restricted streets, or soft ground that risks getting heavy trucks stuck. Make sure to note driveway width, overhead wires, gate codes, and any turnaround limits in your order notes so providers can plan. Our pricing is transparent and any additional fees will be explained during checkout or by our team.

Spring and fall are the busiest seasons for landscaping and hardscape work, so plan ahead and book early to secure preferred dates. Avoid scheduling major deliveries during prolonged wet periods or forecasted heavy rains to reduce risk of washout and access problems. If you need faster timing, next-day delivery is available for qualifying orders placed before noon CST.

Choose materials that match the slope and drainage needs of the site and consider combining permeable layers with proper grading and edging to slow runoff. Geotextile fabric, proper base compaction, and retaining edges can help prevent erosion and movement of material over time. If drainage or erosion is a key concern, describe the issue to our team for recommendations and sizing guidance.

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.
