Materials Available for Delivery
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
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.
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.
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

Why Delco Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Delco (city population 1,720) is part of a growing West North Carolina metro region with a metro area population of 2.3+ million and a steady annual growth rate of 2.80%. That steady expansion means ongoing demand for residential improvements, from driveways and patios to grading and erosion control, as homeowners invest in long-term pRoperty value. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a plant hardiness zone of 8b, local climate and seasonal rainfall patterns influence which materials perform best: projects often need materials that balance drainage with stability, resist seasonal settling, and support plantings suited to a mild, humid environment. In this context, reliable bulk supplies—delivered on schedule and matched to local conditions—help homeowners and contractors get consistent results across a wide range of outdoor projects.Popular Projects in Delco This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Delco Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Delco.
Homeowners and contractors in Delco most often order common aggregates like gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, patios, grading, and garden beds. The exact mix reflects local geology, so color and texture can vary by supplier. If you are unsure which group suits your project, use a material calculator or contact our team for guidance.
St. Art by defining the purpose: load-bearing surfaces, drainage, top dressing, or grading. For most projects, consider the group gravel, sand, dirt, stone for its drainage, compaction, and finishing pRoperties, then pick a size/grade based on whether you need stability, a smooth finish, or good drainage. When in doubt, request samples or ask our sales team for recommendations based on your site conditions.
A simple rule is to convert your area into cubic yards: multiply square feet by depth (in feet) and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. For example, 100 sq ft at 2 inches deep is about 0.6 cubic yards. Use our online calculator for quick estimates and round up to allow for compaction and waste.
Hello Gravel generally has a minimum order of about 3 tons, and delivery pricing depends on distance, load size, and access. Many areas offer free standard delivery, while next-day or special handling can incur additional fees. Add delivery instructions at checkout to get an accurate quote for your address.
Standard delivery is usually 2 or more business days from order, while next-day delivery is avaIlable for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Exact lead times vary with supplier avaIlability and local demand, so choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and confirm with our team if you have a tight timeline. We recommend ordering early for weekend or peak-season projects.
Yes. Spring and fall are popular for landscaping in West North Carolina, so lead times can be longer during those seasons. Wet winter months can make sites muddy and affect delivery access and compaction, while very dry summer conditions may increase dust and watering needs. Plan around local weather and schedule delivery on a dry day if possible.
Permit and HOA rules vary by pRoperty and project type, so check with Columbus County or your local municipality and your HOA before ordering. Simple deliveries to a private driveway often do not need permits, but larger grading, retaining walls, or visible changes in front yards may require approval. Contact our customer service for documentation that can help with local inquiries.
Suppliers and haulers commonly use smaller trucks or place material at the nearest safe drop-off point when access is limited. Note access restrictions in your order and include photos if possible; drivers will assess site safety on arrival and may charge extra for tight access or longer hauling from the truck. We recommend planning a clear path and removing obstacles to minimize additional handling fees.
Common add-ons include tailgate spreading, loader service, and disposal of spoils, which may be offered by contracted haulers at an extra cost. Tailgate spreading is avaIlable at a driver's discretion and should be requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. If you need full spreading or heavy equipment, consider hiring a local contractor or requesting loader service in advance.
Delco's local soils and rainfall patterns influence whether you prioritize drainage, compaction, or erosion resistance. For example, areas with poor drainage will benefit from materials with better permeability, while sloped sites may need stronger, more stable aggregates to prevent movement. Describe your site conditions to our team so we can suggest the right group—gravel, sand, dirt, stone—for your needs.
Decide based on project size, frequency, and complexity: small DIY projects often justify renting a wheelbarrow and plate compactor for a few days, while large or repeated jobs may favor buying. Factor in delivery placement, access, and labor—if material will be placed far from the truck or needs heavy compaction, renting machinery or hiring a contractor may save time and reduce strain. If you need equipment recommendations, our team can help evaluate your project needs.
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.
