Why Shokan Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Shokan's city population is 1,650, and with a growth rate of 0.40% annually this community is experiencing steady, modest expansion that typically produces consistent demand for housing improvements and small-scale construction projects. The surrounding metro area's population is 2.3+ million, which means homeowners here can often tap into a larger regional market for materials and skilled labor even while working on locally scaled jobs. With about 228 sunny days per year and roughly 33.50 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 8b, local projects balance a lot of sun with moderate precipitation—conditions that favor durable, well-draining aggregates as well as materials that tolerate cycles of wetting and drying. For homeowners this translates into practical needs across driveways, drainage swales, garden beds, and erosion control: dependable bulk supplies like sand, dirt, mulch, and stone matter because they directly affect longevity, maintenance, and stormwater performance.Popular Projects in Shokan This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Shokan Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Shokan.
Costs vary by material and distance, but expect delivered bulk materials to commonly fall within a broad local range. Final price depends on material type, tonnage, truck access, and seasonal demand; large orders and nearby suppliers usually lower per-ton cost. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and will provide clear, upfront pricing and a quote for your specific address.
Choose materials and assemblies that promote drainage and resist frost heave rather than a single product. A well-draining base, proper compaction, and a frost-resistant cap reduce freeze-thaw damage; regional material characteristics matter, so local gravel, sand, dirt, stone mixes may perform differently. For critical areas, combine material selection with good site grading and drainage details.
Homeowners typically build layered assemblies: a compactable base for stability and a surface layer for wear and appearance. Many projects use locally sourced aggregates for the base and a finer surface or paver bedding on top; choices depend on budget, maintenance, and look. Consider drainage, compaction needs, and local material color/texture when choosing between options.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Spring and fall are the busiest seasons, so plan and order early to secure your preferred date; winter deliveries are possible but can be limited by weather and site access. Always include delivery notes about access and timing when you order to reduce delays.
Measure the area in square feet and decide the depth in inches, then use: cubic yards = (area x depth in inches) / 324. Multiply cubic yards by the material’s weight per cubic yard (commonly about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material) to get tons, and round up for waste and compaction. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team for help and remember our 3-ton minimum.
Many local suppliers deliver to rural and remote addresses, but truck access limits can affect truck type and extra fees. Narrow roads, steep or long driveways, low overhead clearance, and tight turning radii may require smaller trucks, offload points, or additional handling. Provide clear access details at checkout so we can match the right hauler and avoid surprises.
Prioritize managing water before placing material: establish proper grading, redirect runoff with swales or French drains, and use erosion-control fabrics or terracing where needed. Material selection matters—choose aggregates that allow drainage and combine them with geotextiles or retaining features for slope stability. For work near streams or wetlands, check local setbacks and consult a licensed professional to avoid regulatory and environmental issues.
You may need permits for significant fills, grading that affects drainage, work in stream buffers, or any changes that impact public roads or right-of-way. Permit requirements vary by project and by the Town of Olive and Ulster County rules, so check local building or highway departments before you start. Hello Gravel can help coordinate delivery timing, but obtaining required permits is the customer’s responsibility.
We deliver by professional dump truck fleets (typically tri-axle) and let you choose your delivery date at checkout, with standard and next-day options. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed; include spreading requests in Order Notes and the driver will assess safety upon arrival. If you have special access needs or want advice on placement, contact our team when you order.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
