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.
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.
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
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
3/8″ Natural Pea Gravel
Decorative and functional landscaping gravel. Small, naturally rounded stones create an aesthetic appeal when used for pathways, plant beds and garden borders. Also great for water features, rock gardens, dog runs and playground surfacing.

Why Swan Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Swan Lake homeowners live in a small community with a city population of 1,140, and steady development patterns that reflect a modest growth rate of 0.40% annually. That steady, incremental growth usually translates to consistent demand for renovation, driveway repairs, yard remodeling, and occasional infill construction rather than a construction boom. With 228 sunny days per year, an average annual rainfall of 33.50 inches, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, local projects must handle frequent sun exposure and seasonal wet-dry cycles. For residents that means choosing quality bulk materials—gravel, sand, dirt, stone, mulch—that balance drainage, compaction, and plant needs. Local sourcing also means material texture and color will reflect regional geology, so homeowners benefit from products matched to Swan Lake’s climate and common project types.Popular Projects in Swan Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Swan Lake Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Swan Lake.
Homeowners and contractors in Swan Lake typically choose a mix of base and surface materials depending on use. For example, compactable base materials provide stability for driveways, while more decorative surface mixes are chosen for patios and walkways. When deciding between gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates, consider traffic levels, desired appearance, drainage needs, and how much maintenance you want.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of about 3 tons and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Final costs depend on material type, volume, distance from local suppliers, and site accessibility; our online checkout shows transparent pricing and you can get a personalized quote prior to ordering. Keep in mind seasonal demand and road conditions can affect lead times and hauling fees.
Swan Lake's winter freeze–thaw cycles can cause un-compacted or poorly drained aggregates to shift, settle, or heave over time. Properly installed bases, good drainage, and adequate compaction reduce frost-related movement and extend the life of many materials. When choosing materials, opt for types and installation methods suited to freezing climates and allow for slightly larger depth or better draining mixes in cold areas.
Late spring through early fall is usually the easiest time to schedule deliveries and install materials in Swan Lake because the ground is unfrozen and weather is more predictable. Deliveries can still be made in winter, but frozen ground, snow, and local road restrictions can cause delays, extra fees, or limited spreading options. Book early in busy seasons to secure your preferred date.
Measure the length and width of the area and decide on the target depth, then multiply to get cubic feet and convert to cubic yards (divide cubic feet by 27). Different materials have different densities, so convert cubic yards to tons using the material-specific density or use Hello Gravel's online material calculator for a quick estimate. When in doubt, add a small overage for compaction, settling, or grading adjustments.
Permit requirements vary by town and county, and may apply to new driveways, curb cuts, significant grading, or work in public right-of-way. Check with your local municipal office or building department in Swan Lake and Sullivan County before starting work. Hello Gravel can help you plan around permit timelines, but we do not issue permits on your behalf.
Many local contractors and landscapers serving the Swan Lake area are equipped to install and compact common aggregates, but availability varies by season and project scope. Installation costs depend on access, site prep, excavation, compaction equipment, material type, and disposal of excess material. We recommend getting multiple bids and confirming that the contractor has experience with the specific materials you choose.
On slopes and near water, managing runoff is critical—use properly graded base layers, consider geotextile fabric, and select materials that balance permeability with erosion resistance. Edge restraints, terraces, swales, and small retaining structures can help keep materials in place and protect shoreline or landscaped areas. Local rainfall patterns and freeze–thaw cycles also affect erosion risk, so plan drainage improvements as part of your material selection.
Narrow roads, weight-restricted bridges, steep driveways, and overhead obstructions can limit truck access and influence where drivers can dump materials. Provide clear access instructions and photos at checkout so our haulers can plan the best drop location, and expect the driver to assess feasibility on arrival. Tailgate spreading may be possible at the driver's discretion, but not guaranteed—plan for offloading and spreading if access is tight.
Compare initial cost, expected lifespan, maintenance frequency, permeability, and how the material performs in Swan Lake's climate. Generally, more stable, well-compacted base mixes cost more up front but reduce long-term maintenance, while loose surface mixes may be cheaper but need periodic regrading. Match the material to your budget and intended use—high-traffic driveways need different materials than decorative pathways or garden beds—and consult our team or the aggregate quiz for tailored guidance.
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.
