Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Evangeline, LA

Choices depend on the project and performance needs, but homeowners typically pick from gravel, sand, dirt, stone for base, surface, and leveling uses. For driveways and high-traffic areas choose a stable, well-draining mix; for patios and garden beds choose finer or decorative blends. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team to match material size and texture to your project.

West Louisiana gets frequent rain and humid conditions, so drainage and erosion resistance are top concerns. Pick materials and profiles that shed water and avoid fines that wash out easily, and plan for good compaction and edging to reduce movement. Expect some settling and seasonal changes, and schedule follow-up grading if needed.

Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons, and the amount you need depends on material density and the depth you plan to place it. Tons and cubic yards are not the same across materials, so use our online calculator or call the sales team with your project dimensions to get an accurate recommendation. Ordering a little extra for grading and compaction is common.

Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout; we connect you with local haulers who confirm timing. While we aim for clear scheduling, exact arrival times are not guaranteed.

Rural routes, narrow drives, low-hanging wires, and weight-restricted roads can limit where dump trucks can safely deliver. Check local parish rules and confirm access details in your order notes, including gate codes, overhead clearances, and preferred drop spot. Drivers will assess access on arrival and may refuse or relocate a drop if conditions are unsafe.

Avoid the wettest months when possible; late fall through early spring often provides firmer ground for deliveries and installation work. Summer brings heavy rain and higher humidity, which can slow projects and increase settling. Plan ahead for peak seasons and allow extra time around major holidays and spring landscaping peaks.

Permit and HOA requirements vary by parish, township, and neighborhood, so check with your local parish office and your HOA before starting major work. Hello Gravel handles materials and delivery but does not manage permits, so get approvals before placing an order to avoid delays.

Many Louisiana soils retain moisture and can be clayey, so a stable sub-base and good drainage are often necessary to prevent rutting and washout. You may need underlayment fabric, a compacted sub-base, or a thicker layer of drainage-friendly aggregate depending on the site. Consider a site assessment or contractor consult if drainage or load-bearing is a concern.

Most local suppliers and haulers deliver materials only, but some may offer or refer installation services through partner contractors. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout, but there are no guarantees. Ask about installation options when you get a quote if you prefer bundled services.

Pricing depends on material type, order size, distance from local suppliers, and requested delivery timing. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing at checkout and may offer free delivery in some areas, while next-day or remote deliveries can carry additional fees. For a precise cost, check your zip code and request a quote through our site.

Clear the intended drop zone of cars, trailers, and low-hanging branches and provide a clear path for the dump truck to approach and leave. Mark the preferred drop spot with stakes and add any special instructions in the order notes, and make sure the ground is firm enough to support a heavy vehicle. If you need spreading, request it at checkout and be ready for the driver to assess safety on arrival.

Ask about the delivery window, minimum order size, whether tailgate spreading is available, and how regional sourcing may affect color and texture. Also confirm payment methods, cancellation or change policies, and recommendations for compaction and coverage depth for your specific project. Having these answers makes planning and budgeting much easier.

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.
