1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
Garden Soil
Premium garden soil enriched with organic matter—essential for vigorous, healthy plant growth. Ideal for filling gardens, building raised beds, and enhancing tired or compacted soil. Fulfillment 20-40% organic is ideal
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
3/4″ Crushed Stone
A reliable, clean ¾” crushed granite or limestone with many applications. Great for gravel driveways, concrete mixes, landscaping applications, and backfilling retaining walls or around foundations.

Why Bedford-Stuyvesant Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bedford-Stuyvesant has a city population of 150,000 and sits within a metro area of 2.3+ million, a market showing steady demand for home improvement and infill construction reflected by a modest growth rate of 0.40% annually. That steady, controlled growth points to consistent, predictable needs for landscaping, repairs, and phased renovation projects rather than boom-era spikes. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 33.50 inches—supports year-round outdoor activity but drives specific material choices: homeowners need aggregates and soils that manage moisture without trapping water, mulches and soils that support plantings through mild winters, and durable surface materials that stand up to frequent use. Quality bulk materials like gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone influence drainage, foundation stability, erosion control, and planting success across common urban projects from patios and walkways to raised beds and driveways. Bedford-Stuyvesant’s combination of moderate rainfall and abundant sun creates practical challenges and opportunities for material performance. Regular precipitation makes drainage and erosion control primary concerns, while many sunny days accelerate drying and organic breakdown in mulches and soils. Urban soils often need amendment or replacement to improve structure, and surface materials must resist rutting and washout under repeated foot and vehicle traffic. For homeowners, that means prioritizing permeability, compaction resistance, and locally sourced materials tuned to these conditions. Hello Gravel helps by connecting customers with regional suppliers, offering quantity calculators and expert guidance, and coordinating scheduled deliveries so homeowners can choose the right materials and time work around local weather patterns.Popular Projects in Bedford-Stuyvesant This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bedford-Stuyvesant Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
Start by matching the material to the job: consider load (cars vs foot traffic), drainage needs, desired look, and budget. Regional materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone perform differently, so pick one that balances drainage and compaction for driveways and a more decorative texture for gardens. Use our material calculator and the aggregate quiz to estimate quantities and narrow choices, and contact our sales team for guidance based on your site conditions.
Bedford-Stuyvesant is urban with seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and mixed soil types, which affect settling and drainage. Street-level runoff, tight lot lines, and delivery access also influence which materials work best in practice. Expect regional variation in color and texture since materials are sourced locally, and factor in how your property handles water when choosing a material.
Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons, standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees depend on distance, local truck access, and any special handling needs; many areas get free delivery but it varies by location. You will see exact pricing and scheduling options at checkout for your zip code.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth you need, then convert that volume to tons using our material calculator or contact our team for help. Different projects need different depths, and material density varies by type, so estimates are approximate until you select a material. Use the online quote to compare costs and call us if you want a contractor-level estimate for larger or complex jobs.
Plan deliveries outside of freeze-thaw transitions when possible; spring can be muddy and winter can restrict on-street work or truck access. Schedule materials at least a few days to a few weeks ahead for busy seasons, and use our checkout calendar to pick a date that avoids local weather risks. Contractors often recommend ordering earlier in the season for large jobs to secure truck availability.
Permits depend on the scope of work and local rules; simple backyard spreading usually needs no permit, while curb cuts, new driveways, or major grade changes may require city or borough approvals. Street parking, loading zones, and sidewalk access in Brooklyn can also affect delivery staging, so check local regulations or consult a contractor familiar with New York City requirements. Contact our team if you need help understanding common local considerations, but always verify with your local municipal office.
Durability, drainage, and cost are tradeoffs: well-graded materials tend to compact and hold up better under traffic, while looser, coarser materials drain faster but may shift more over time. Consider the primary function of the area—structural surfaces like driveways need compaction, while planting beds prioritize drainage—and choose a material that meets that need within your budget. Our team can suggest material blends that aim for a balance of performance and value.
Expect tighter streets, potential parking restrictions, and limited space for truck maneuvering; many deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that need a clear offload area. Clear the drop zone of cars and obstacles before the scheduled delivery, note any gated access or narrow alleys in your order notes, and be prepared to move vehicles or get any necessary street permits. We will confirm access details after you place the order, and drivers will assess safety on arrival.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, and you can request spreading at checkout, but this service is not guaranteed. For precise placement or heavy spreading, hire a contractor or plan for additional labor after delivery. To improve chances of a successful drop, clearly mark the intended drop area and include instructions in your order notes.
Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest before an order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but availability and fees depend on supplier and hauler schedules. Refer to our order and refund policies for details and reach out promptly to increase the chance of a favorable adjustment.

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.
