Why Portland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Portland has a population of 760, and its steady 0.40% annual growth points to gradual, sustained demand for home improvement and small-scale construction projects rather than a building boom. In a region whose broader metro area includes 2.3+ million residents, homeowners are investing in durable yards, drainage fixes, and modest additions that improve property value and curb appeal. Portland’s climate—about 228 sunny days per year, roughly 33.50 inches of rain annually, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—means materials must balance drainage and moisture resistance with heat tolerance and plant-friendly properties. That drives demand for a range of bulk materials, from soil blends and mulches to sands, gravels, and base aggregates, all of which perform differently under local weather cycles. Using quality, regionally sourced bulk materials helps prevent erosion, manage runoff, and create stable surfaces that stand up to seasonal changes.Popular Projects in Portland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Portland Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Portland.
Choose a material based on drainage, compaction, and appearance rather than a single type. For driveways and high-traffic areas, homeowners often use well-graded aggregates that compact to a firm surface and shed water; gravel, sand, dirt, and stone each have options suited for base, binder, and surface layers. Consider local climate and whether you need a permeable surface for drainage. When in doubt, use our material quiz or contact our team for recommendations.
Start by calculating the volume in cubic yards: multiply length x width x depth (in feet) and divide by 27. Convert cubic yards to tons if needed using our online calculator, since different materials have different weights per cubic yard. We recommend ordering a little extra (5-10%) to account for compaction, grading, and spillage. Use Hello Gravel's calculator or contact our team for a quick estimate.
Materials that drain well and resist softening perform best in freeze-thaw and rainy conditions. Well-graded aggregates used as base layers and surfaces that promote runoff or infiltration tend to be more durable than loose, fine materials. Regional sourcing means local suppliers offer mixes adjusted for West New York climate—ask about local performance and drainage recommendations. Proper installation and compaction matter as much as material choice.
Late spring through early fall is generally the easiest time for earthwork and aggregate deliveries to avoid mud and frozen ground. Plan around heavy rain periods and the freeze-thaw window in early spring and late fall to reduce chances of delays or poor compaction. If you need winter delivery, expect potential access and scheduling constraints and talk to our team about timing. Choose a delivery date in checkout and confirm with our scheduler.
Yes, Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve Portland and the surrounding West New York metro area, subject to zip code availability. Delivery options and fees vary by supplier, distance, and access at the drop-off site. Enter your zip code on our site to see availability, pricing, and estimated delivery windows. If you have tight access or special instructions, include details in Order Notes.
Delivery cost depends on the quantity, distance from the supplier, site access, and whether you need next-day service or additional services. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing up front for your zip code and gives estimates during checkout. Remember that minimum orders (typically 3 tons) and optional next-day fees can affect the total. Contact our team for a detailed quote if you have unusual access or timing needs.
Permit requirements vary by municipality and by project scope; simple resurfacing may not require a permit while full replacements or changes to drainage and curb cuts often do. Check with Portland town offices or county building/engineering departments before starting work to confirm local rules and setback or drainage requirements. If you plan to change sidewalks, curb cuts, or drainage, get approvals first to avoid rework. Our team can remind you to verify permits during planning.
Delivery fees typically reflect distance, road access, and the size of the truck required to reach your site, while minimum orders are often around 3 tons. Smaller or harder-to-access sites may incur higher delivery costs or require smaller trucks. Hello Gravel displays supplier-specific pricing and minimums for your zip code so you can compare options. If you need a special truck size or off-road delivery, mention it when ordering.
Both gravel and sand have roles: materials that are coarser and well-graded promote drainage, while finer materials are better for leveling and compaction. For drainage, choose well-draining aggregates that resist clogging; for beds, pavers, or fine grading, blended materials may be appropriate. The right choice depends on the project—base, surface, or backfill—and local soil conditions. Use our material guide or contact us for recommendations tailored to your project.
Many local contractors and landscapers in the West New York area offer installation, grading, and cleanup services in addition to material delivery. Hello Gravel focuses on sourcing and delivery, but we can help connect you with local suppliers and haulers; for installation services, ask your supplier or check local listings for contractors. If you need spreading, request tailgate spreading at checkout but note drivers perform this at their discretion and it is not guaranteed.
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.
