Materials Available for Delivery
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.
Garden Soil

Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.

Why Philmont Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Philmont is a small but active community with a city population of 1,200 and links to a larger region serving a metro area population of 2.3+ million. A steady growth rate of 0.40% annually suggests gradual, reliable demand for home improvements rather than sudden development booms; that means homeowners can plan projects with a reasonable expectation of supplier availability and stable pricing. With 228 sunny days and annual rainfall of 33.50 inches in hardiness zone 8b, projects here balance sun-tolerant plantings with materials that manage periodic wetness. Homeowners and contractors in Philmont often need a mix of drainage-friendly aggregates, stable base materials for patios and driveways, and topsoil or mulch that supports plantings in a temperate climate. Quality bulk materials matter here because they reduce maintenance, improve water management, and help landscaped areas thrive through seasonal shifts.Popular Projects in Philmont This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Philmont Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Philmont.
Start with what the surface must do: bear vehicle weight, promote drainage, or provide a finished look. Choose from gravel, sand, dirt, stone in combinations that match function—drainage layers use coarser material, finished surfaces use smaller, compactable aggregates. Use our material calculator and talk to our team to narrow options based on appearance, budget, and how the material performs in local conditions.
Philmont experiences freeze-thaw cycles, snow, and seasonal rainfall, which can cause shifting, settling, or frost heave in improperly prepared areas. Pick materials and build-ups that shed water and resist movement, and allow for good base preparation and drainage. Regional sourcing means color and texture can vary, so consider both performance and appearance for year-round durability.
Measure the length, width, and depth of the area to get cubic yards, then convert to tons if needed. As a quick rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard is about 1.1–1.5 tons depending on the material and moisture content, but use our online calculator for a more accurate number. Order a little extra (typically 5–10%) for compaction, grading, and waste.
Hello Gravel's standard delivery option is typically 2+ business days and the minimum order is 3 tons. Next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Delivery fees are often included in our pricing in many areas, but in rural or tight-access locations a small delivery charge of $50–$150 or more may apply depending on distance and truck access.
Local permits or approvals can be required for new or widened driveways, curb cuts, retaining walls above certain heights, or if a delivery will block public roads. Regulations vary by village, town, and county, so contact the Philmont or Columbia County building or public works office before starting work. If in doubt, get a permit check early to avoid delays.
Many deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, which require sufficient turning space, driveway width, and overhead clearance. Narrow country roads, low-hanging wires, or weight-restricted bridges in rural areas can limit truck options, so provide photos and describe access when ordering. Our team will match your job with an appropriate hauler and let you know if a smaller truck or alternative drop location is needed.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site conditions. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess whether it can be done safely upon arrival. For precise or finished grading, plan to hire a contractor or rent a small loader and rake.
Look at slope direction, low spots, and existing runoff paths—material choice must support proper drainage away from structures. Use permeable base layers and adequate slope rather than relying on surface material alone, and consider adding a geotextile or proper base when installing over soft ground. Poor grading is the most common cause of failure, so plan grading before ordering materials.
Spring and fall are usually the best times for outdoor work because ground conditions are easier to grade and compact. Winter deliveries are possible but can be slower, subject to weather restrictions, and may require snow removal or frozen-ground handling. Order early in busy seasons and allow extra lead time for deliveries during winter storms or spring thaw.
Suppliers will typically ask for the project address, area dimensions, desired depth, material type or performance needs, and site-access details (driveway width, obstacles, and overhead clearance). Photos of the site and notes about where you want the load dropped speed up accurate quotes. Providing this info up front helps avoid surprises and ensures we send the right truck and quantity.
Materials are regionally sourced, so color, grain size, and texture vary with local geology and quarry practices. Photos are illustrative; if you have a specific color preference, add notes at checkout and our team will attempt to match your needs where possible. If appearance is critical, request a sample or ask about nearby supplier photos before ordering.
Contact our team as soon as possible—changes are easiest to accommodate before an order is processed or dispatched. Once a truck has been scheduled or dispatched, modifications may be limited and additional fees could apply. See our order and refund policies or call customer service for help with specific requests.
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.
