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.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
Topsoil
High-grade soil enriched with organic matter. Perfect for landscaping, lawn establishment and repair, and for improving existing soil.
Fulfillment:
Should never be fulfilled with material that does not include an organic component, though organic components should be small.
2-10% organic is ideal
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.

Why Rockaway Park Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rockaway Park is home to 14,780 residents in a metro area serving 2.3+ million people, and its steady annual growth rate of 0.40% points to measured, ongoing demand for home improvements and small-scale development. For homeowners that translates into regular investment in landscaping, driveway work, patios, and drainage upgrades rather than a sudden building boom. The local climate—about 228 sunny days a year and 33.50 inches of rainfall, in USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates a need for materials that balance moisture management and year-round durability. Quality bulk materials like gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and decorative stone support erosion control, stable foundations, and resilient planting beds, and choosing the right grades and quantities up front reduces callbacks and rework for both DIYers and contractors.Popular Projects in Rockaway Park This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rockaway Park Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rockaway Park.
Choose materials that shed water and resist movement in sandy soils. For many projects homeowners select mixes from the gravel, sand, dirt, stone group that offer good drainage and compaction; angular aggregates pack well while looser sands help with filtering. Pick a surface based on desired appearance, load needs, and maintenance—our material quiz and team can help match options to your driveway or walkway.
Coastal conditions bring salt spray, higher ground water, and occasional strong storms, which can speed weathering and washout. Materials from the gravel, sand, dirt, stone group should be chosen for drainage and stability, and you may need more frequent top-ups or regrading after storms. Consider corrosion-resistant edging and designs that move water away from structures to reduce maintenance.
Prioritize solutions that slow water flow and promote infiltration, such as graded swales, properly sized aggregate layers, and vegetation. Use a mix from the gravel, sand, dirt, stone group to create stable backing and drainage zones while keeping loose material off dunes and protected areas. Always design with slope, runoff volumes, and local regulations in mind.
Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, with next-day options available for orders placed early (fees may apply). Spring through fall are the easiest seasons for deliveries and outdoor installation, while winter can cause delays due to frozen ground and weather. We recommend booking ahead for summer projects and after major storms when demand rises.
Hello Gravel generally has a minimum order of 3 tons, and total cost depends on material type, distance from local suppliers, and truck access. Beachside or tight-access deliveries can add fees due to permit needs or extra labor. Use our calculator or request a quote to see transparent pricing for your zip code.
Many local suppliers and contracted haulers serve Rockaway Park, but access constraints like narrow streets, low clearances, or parking restrictions can affect delivery. Coastal or beachside drop-offs may incur additional fees for offloading or special permits, so disclose access conditions when ordering. Our checkout includes notes for delivery instructions and we can advise on potential surcharges.
Measure the length and width of the area, decide on a finished depth, then multiply area by depth to get cubic yards; convert to tons using our online calculator since density varies. For common projects we provide example estimates and tools to simplify the math for materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone. If you need help, text or call our team and we can verify quantities before you order.
Local regulations in Queens and New York City can require permits or have rules about filling, especially near wetlands or public beaches. Large volume deliveries or changes to site grade may trigger permits or inspections, and contaminated soils have special disposal rules. Check with NYC Department of Buildings or local environmental agencies and let our team know so we can flag potential issues.
Drivers may be able to perform limited tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this service at checkout but it is not guaranteed. Expect professional dump truck delivery, and prepare clear access, mark drop zone, and remove obstacles before arrival to reduce delays. For precise spreading or grading, consider hiring a local contractor for final finish work.
Focus on permeability, particle shape, and size distribution rather than a single product name; stable drainage layers usually use coarser, well-graded material while erosion control often needs heavier, angular stone in key areas. Think about how the material will be used, whether it must compact, filter, or resist washout, and select from the gravel, sand, dirt, stone group accordingly. Our sales team can suggest material profiles suited to your project's performance needs.
Clear a safe access route, flag the exact drop location, and move parked cars or obstacles so trucks can get close to the site. Verify property lines and any permit or parking restrictions, and note low-hanging wires or tight turns in the Order Notes at checkout. A little prep reduces delivery time and helps avoid additional fees or re-scheduling.
Keep stockpiles covered or placed on pallets to limit windblown sand and salt exposure, and avoid working with saturated or frozen ground when possible. Schedule installations for drier months to improve compaction and stability, and plan for occasional top-ups after winter storms. If you expect storm surge or tidal flooding, store materials above potential high-water lines.
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.
