Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
River Rock
Naturally rounded, decorative stone for landscaping, garden beds, and water features. Typically 1-2” in size, with options for larger sizes upon request. Comes in a variety of colors that vary based on location and natural stone availability, so please be sure to specify if you have color preferences.
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.
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.

Why Rush Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rush is a small but steadily growing community of 2,990 people, and its 0.40% annual growth points to steady, predictable demand for homeowner improvements and modest construction projects rather than rapid development. That steady growth means more routine investments in driveways, patios, planting beds, and drainage upgrades — projects that rely on reliable bulk materials. With 228 sunny days a year and 33.50 inches of annual rainfall in a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, local conditions favor outdoor work for much of the year but also require materials that handle both sun exposure and periodic rain. Homeowners and contractors in Rush benefit from regionally sourced aggregates, soils, and mulches that reflect local geology and perform well in this specific climate. Rush’s mix of moderate rainfall, high sunshine, and mild hardiness conditions creates practical requirements for material performance. Soils and aggregates must balance permeability and stability to prevent erosion during rain events while resisting UV and weathering from frequent sun. That means choosing base materials that compact predictably, drainage mixes that move water away from foundations, and surfacing materials that retain color and texture under sunlight. Hello Gravel helps Rush homeowners by connecting them to local suppliers, offering quantity guidance and scheduling deliveries so material selections match the town’s climate and project goals without guesswork.Popular Projects in Rush This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rush Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rush.
Homeowners in Rush often choose from a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone depending on the project. For driveways they favor aggregates that compact well and drain, while landscaping projects may use blends that emphasize appearance and weed control. Local sourcing means color and texture can vary, so review photos and order notes before purchase.
Freeze-thaw cycles in upstate New York can cause heaving and frost-related movement, so choose materials that drain well and resist shifting. Well-graded aggregates and mixes that compact tightly reduce frost heave risk, while loose, fine materials may settle or wash away. Consider adding a drainage layer or geotextile for areas with poor drainage or heavy frost.
Prices vary by material type, local supply, delivery distance, and season, so estimates range widely. The best way to get an accurate cost is to use Hello Gravel’s online quote tool or request a local estimate for your zip code. We show transparent pricing at checkout and can help you compare per-ton or per-yard options for your project.
Spring through fall are the most common times for deliveries and installations in Rush because ground conditions are easier to work with and weather is more predictable. Winter deliveries are possible but may be slower and material performance can be affected by frozen ground or snow. Plan ahead for spring projects and reserve materials early in peak season to secure your preferred delivery date.
Local contractors typically choose coarser, well-graded mixes for drainage and erosion control and finer mixes for surface smoothing and compaction. Preferences depend on the slope, soil type, and intended use—steeper slopes often need larger, angular material to lock in place while flatter areas can use finer grades. Discuss your site conditions with our team or your contractor so you select a mix suited to Rush’s local soils and climate.
Some deliveries in Rush may be affected by narrow streets, low overhead wires, HOA rules, or local permitting for large drops; check with your town or property manager before ordering. Our drivers use tri-axle dump trucks and will assess safe placement on arrival, but you should confirm access and any permit requirements ahead of time. Add delivery notes at checkout and contact our team if you expect tight access or special restrictions.
Low-maintenance solutions often use durable, well-draining aggregates that resist weeds and require minimal reshaping, combined with proper edging and fabric where needed. A coarser, stable base topped with an appropriate surface material reduces routine upkeep. For planting beds, mixes that retain some moisture but drain well help reduce watering and erosion in local conditions.
Steeper slopes need coarser, angular aggregates or layered systems to prevent movement, while gentle slopes can use finer, more compactable materials for a smooth finish. Terraced areas or retaining walls often require specific backfill mixes to manage drainage and pressure. Evaluate your slope, runoff patterns, and soil before choosing materials to ensure long-term stability.
Measure the area and calculate quantities before ordering, check access for trucks, and clear the drop zone of vehicles, obstacles, and low branches. Choose a delivery date in advance, add any placement notes at checkout, and be available by phone on delivery day in case the driver needs guidance. Remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and tailgate spreading is available only at the driver’s discretion.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
