Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Laplace, LA

Hello Gravel serves Laplace and surrounding zip codes (check your zip code at checkout). Minimum orders are typically 3 tons, and deliveries are made by dump trucks (commonly tri-axle). Standard delivery requires 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.

Choose materials based on the use (driveway, path, raised bed, or base layer), desired appearance, and how much drainage or compaction you need. In Laplace’s climate consider materials that handle frequent rain and high humidity and that match the slope and grading of your site. Our material calculator and sales team can help you compare options quickly.

Laplace often has low-lying areas and a higher water table, so drainage is a key consideration for most projects. Select materials and build-up strategies that promote good surface runoff and avoid trapping water, and plan for subgrade preparation to improve stability. For large or sloped areas, contractors commonly add base layers and drainage features to reduce settling and washout.

Avoid peak rainy periods and hurricane season when possible; late winter to spring and late fall often offer more predictable weather for outdoor work. Schedule deliveries with at least the standard 2+ business days lead time and consider the next-day option for urgent needs placed before noon CST. Allow extra time for site prep and drying after heavy rain.

Yes, check St. John the Baptist Parish rules and any neighborhood HOA guidelines before changing driveways or doing large landscape deliveries. Permits or right-of-way restrictions can apply for curb cuts, driveway expansions, and work near drainage ditches. If you are unsure, contact local parish offices or your HOA early in the planning stage.

Deliveries arrive by contracted haulers on dump trucks and require space for safe unloading and truck access. Expect standard lead times of 2+ business days, possible delivery fees for special access, and the option to request tailgate spreading at checkout; drivers will perform spreading only at their discretion. For tight sites, schedule deliveries when a contractor can guide placement to avoid rehandling.

Prices and availability depend on regional sourcing, local suppliers, and seasonal demand, so costs can vary by zip code and project timing.

Materials and assemblies that promote good drainage and resist washout typically need less maintenance in Laplace’s conditions. Proper base preparation, compaction, edge restraints, and slope management reduce ruts and erosion over time. Choose materials suited to the intended use and plan for occasional top-ups in high-traffic or flood-prone spots.

Contractors recommend clearing organic material, grading to establish slope for runoff, and compacting a stable subgrade before placing bulk materials. Adding drainage features like swales, perforated pipe, or raised beds and using geotextile fabric in weak soils can greatly extend the life of your surface. Discuss your site conditions with our team so the supplier and contractor can recommend appropriate preparation steps.

Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes or cancellations; earlier requests are easier to accommodate before a truck is dispatched.

Keep photos and notes about site conditions and delivery timing to help with any follow-up.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
