Why Hammond Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hammond is a community of 1,720 residents located within a larger metro area of 2.3+ million. With a steady annual growth rate of 0.40%, development in the area tends to be gradual and demand-driven rather than boom-driven, which means steady, predictable needs for home improvement, landscaping, and small construction projects. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and average rainfall of 33.50 inches, in USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates material needs that balance sun exposure and wet-weather performance. Homeowners and contractors increasingly prioritize durable, locally sourced bulk materials such as gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and aggregate blends to build resilient driveways, improve drainage, and create low-maintenance landscapes. Using quality, regionally matched materials reduces problems with compaction, erosion, and color or texture mismatches that can slow projects or require costly rework. Local soils and seasonal weather patterns influence how materials behave after delivery: wetter periods increase the importance of well-graded base layers and drainage mixes, while sunny stretches speed drying and surface settling. That relationship means homeowners should focus on material gradation, compaction characteristics, and erosion resistance when selecting supplies for yards, paths, and access drives. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers who understand the area’s geology and climate, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery windows, and tools to estimate quantities—so you get the right materials at the right time without unnecessary delays or surprises.Popular Projects in Hammond This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hammond Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hammond.
Choose materials that provide good drainage and compaction for driveways and walkways. In Hammond's climate, many customers prefer mixes that include angular pieces for stability with a finer top layer for a smooth finish; our selection includes gravel, sand, dirt, stone and blends. The right choice depends on use (driveway vs. path), budget, and whether you need a permeable surface for drainage.
Look for materials and installation methods that drain well and resist shifting when frozen and thawed. Proper base depth, compaction, and a well-graded material mix help reduce heaving; using perimeter edging and good site grading also helps. Consider scheduling work in warmer months when compaction and settling are more reliable.
Late spring through early fall is ideal for most landscaping and driveway work in Hammond because the ground is easier to grade and compact. Deliveries still happen year-round, but winter brings frozen ground, snow, and more delivery delays or access challenges. If you need winter delivery, plan extra time and discuss site access with our team.
Yes, we deliver to Hammond and surrounding West New York zip codes—check your zip (primary: 13646) for availability on our site. Standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; minimum orders start at about 3 tons. Deliveries are made by local dump trucks; drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion but spreading is not guaranteed.
For drainage, choose coarser, well-graded mixes that allow water to pass through and avoid fine, compacting materials. For planting beds, top dressing, or leveling, finer materials may be better because they compact and create a smooth surface. Often the best approach uses more than one material in layers—base material for drainage and stability, and a finer finish material on top.
Material needs vary by area and desired depth, but common ranges can help: small walkway or patch 1-3 cubic yards, a single-car driveway 6-10 cubic yards, and a two-car driveway 10-20 cubic yards. These are rough estimates because compaction and material density vary; use our online material calculator or contact our team with dimensions for a precise estimate. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so small jobs may require ordering the minimum or arranging drop-off options.
Prices depend on the material type, the quantity you order, distance from the supplier, site accessibility, and whether you choose next-day delivery or request spreading. Local sourcing can lower costs, and we show transparent quotes online so you can compare. For an exact price, enter your zip and material on our site or contact our sales team.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if site conditions allow, but this service is not guaranteed and may carry an additional fee. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with local haulers; full installation or landscaping services are typically handled by contractors. If you need installation, we can help you find local professionals or you can add notes to your order to request spreading and the driver will assess on arrival.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve Hammond and nearby West New York communities. Use our website to check availability for zip 13646 and surrounding zip codes, get transparent pricing, and schedule delivery. You can also call our team for material guidance and quotes.
Some municipalities and HOAs have rules about driveway materials, colors, edging, and drainage, so check Hammond town zoning or your HOA covenants before ordering. Common restrictions include limits on visible material types and requirements for proper drainage. If you have questions, contact local authorities or your HOA and let us know any restrictions when you order so we can advise on suitable options.
Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; changes are easiest before the order is processed and the truck is dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications may be limited once a hauler is assigned. Check your order confirmation for contact details and timing guidelines.
Expect a call or notice from your driver before arrival and ensure the truck can access the drop location, with gates open and obstacles moved. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout and be prepared for the driver to assess safety and feasibility on site. Take photos of the delivery area and leave clear instructions in the order notes to help the driver place the material where you want it.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
