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.
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
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.
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.
#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.

Why Ellerbe Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Ellerbe is a small but active community of 3,330 residents within a broader West North Carolina region that sits inside a 2.3+ million person metro area. A steady annual growth rate of 2.80% suggests measured but persistent demand for new homes, driveways, and outdoor living spaces — projects that directly increase need for bulk materials. With about 228 sunny days a year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, local projects must balance sun-tolerant plantings with reliable drainage and erosion control. Homeowners and contractors alike are ordering a mix of gravel, dirt, sand, mulch, and stone to handle grading, stormwater management, landscape beds, and driveways. In this environment, buying quality bulk materials matters: properly graded aggregates and the right topsoil or mulch help projects last through seasonal wetness and hot, sunny periods while reflecting the regional geology homeowners expect.Popular Projects in Ellerbe This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Ellerbe Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Ellerbe.
You can order bulk materials through Hello Gravel's online platform, which connects you with local suppliers and haulers serving Ellerbe. Enter your zip code to see available materials and delivery options; local sourcing means the texture and color will reflect West North Carolina geology.
Cost depends on material type, local supply, and truck size, but Hello Gravel lists transparent pricing once you enter your zip code. Expect pricing displayed per ton with a minimum order of about 3 tons; use the site calculator or contact our team for a tailored estimate.
Topsoil and fill dirt serve different purposes: topsoil is richer in organic matter for planting, while fill dirt is used to raise grades or fill voids. Choose based on your project goals—gardens and lawns usually need topsoil, while grading, foundations, and some landscaping projects often require fill-type material.
Calculate volume by measuring length, width, and depth of the area and multiplying (length x width x depth) to get cubic yards, then convert to tons using the material density listed on the product page. Hello Gravel provides a material calculator and guidance to estimate quantities for common projects like driveways, beds, and backfill.
Material choice depends on function: stable, angular aggregates are good for driveways and paths; coarser, free-draining mixes work for drainage; and nutrient-rich, finer material is best for garden beds. Describe the intended use and traffic level when ordering so you get a material suited to performance and local climate.
Prices vary by local availability and quality, but fill-type materials are often less expensive than screened topsoil because they require less processing. Check Hello Gravel's prices for your zip code to compare local rates and factor in delivery when comparing total cost.
The 70/30 rule is a common guideline recommending about 70% existing soil mixed with 30% organic amendments for planting beds, helping improve structure without overwhelming plants. When buying bulk materials, consider whether you need pure topsoil, an amendment like compost, or a blend to reach the right mix for planting.
Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days with no extra fee, and next-day delivery is an option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose a preferred delivery date at checkout, and deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets sourced locally.
Some drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site access. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess upon arrival; plan for a separate contractor if you need a guaranteed spreading service.
Natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may differ from photos; if you have concerns contact customer service promptly and refer to our refund policy for details. To change an order, reach out as soon as possible—changes are easier before the order is processed or dispatched, but not all modifications can be guaranteed.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
Use our material calculator here: https://hellogravel.com/calculator/ to enter the length, width and depth measurements of your project. It will automatically calculate the cubic yards/tons needed. If you are unsure how much to order, contact our team for guidance.
Please type in your zip code on any product screen and it will let you know if we service your area. The chances are that we do!
The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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!
