#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.
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.
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
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.
Fill Dirt
Versatile, lower-grade soil commonly used for volume and elevation changes in various construction and landscaping projects. Great for leveling or grading ground, backfilling pools and filling ditches, and evening out low points or depressions on your property.

Why julian Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Julian is a small community of 2,850 residents situated within a growing West North Carolina region that counts 2.3+ million people in its metro footprint. A steady growth rate of 2.80% annually usually means more home renovations, new builds, and local infrastructure work — steady, predictable demand for bulk materials rather than a short-lived boom. The local climate, with 228/year of sunshine and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, creates a mix of drying and runoff pressures that affect material choices. Homeowners need materials that balance drainage, compaction, and UV or moisture resistance. That makes consistent access to locally sourced aggregates, soils, mulches, and sands important for driveways, planting beds, erosion control, and grading work in Julian. Julian's pattern of moderate rainfall and abundant sunny days produces specific performance needs: soils and surfaces can settle after heavy rains, while surface materials and mulches experience drying and sun exposure during long growing seasons in zone 8b. These conditions favor materials and installation approaches that prioritize drainage, proper compaction, and UV stability. Hello Gravel helps homeowners navigate these trade-offs by connecting them with local suppliers, offering quantity calculators, delivery scheduling, and expert guidance so material choices match Julian's climate and long-term project goals.Popular Projects in julian This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - julian Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in julian.
Choose materials based on drainage, load, and maintenance needs rather than a single "best" option. For Julian's hilly, seasonal climate, pick a material mix that compacts well, sheds water, and matches your desired look; our team can help compare options like crushed and rounded aggregates. Order samples or small test deliveries when unsure, and note local sourcing may affect color and texture.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area to calculate cubic feet, then convert to tons using an online calculator or our material calculator. For most landscape and driveway projects, depths commonly range from 2 to 6 inches for surface layers and 6 to 12 inches for base layers; adjust for slopes and compaction. Use our calculator or contact our team with dimensions and project type for a quick estimate.
Delivery price depends on material type and quantity, distance from the local supplier, site access, and any special handling needs such as difficult terrain or tight driveways. Minimum orders and truck size (typically tri-axle dump trucks) also affect per-ton pricing; we have a 3-ton minimum. Get an accurate quote by checking your zip code and providing delivery details at checkout.
Yes—local suppliers and contracted haulers commonly serve rural and hilly areas around Julian, but delivery depends on truck access and road conditions. Drivers will assess on arrival and may decline unsafe drops; extra fees can apply for remote locations or staging needs. Add detailed notes and photos at checkout to help us match the right truck and plan delivery.
Aim for dry weather windows in spring or fall when soil is stable and compaction works best, and avoid heavy rain periods that make sites muddy and reduce effectiveness. Standard delivery lead time is 2+ business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Plan installation soon after delivery to prevent spreading or erosion from storms.
Look for materials and sizes that promote stability and drainage: well-graded mixes that lock together can reduce movement, while open-graded materials improve drainage. Combine proper material selection with good grading, slope reinforcement, and vegetation to control erosion effectively. Local suppliers can recommend mixes that perform well in Julian's geology and rainfall patterns.
Permit and HOA requirements vary by property and project type, so check with your county planning office and your HOA before ordering materials. Simple repairs may not need permits, but changes to drainage, driveways, or significant grading often do. We recommend confirming approvals before placing an order to avoid delays or rework.
Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets; you select a preferred delivery date at checkout and receive confirmation once scheduled. Drivers will place material in a single drop area accessible from the street; tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. Ensure clear access, mark underground utilities, and communicate any obstacles in the order notes.
Next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, but same-day delivery is uncommon and depends on supplier availability and dispatch times. Standard fulfillment typically requires 2+ business days to coordinate local suppliers and haulers. Check your zip code and contact our team for urgent requests and real-time availability.
Select a gradation that balances compaction and drainage: coarser, angular mixes lock together for stability on slopes, while finer, well-graded mixes compact for load-bearing surfaces. Consider a layered approach—stable base material with a suitable surface layer—to meet both structural and drainage needs. Our sales team can advise on general gradation options that suit Julian's topography without specifying a single product.
Natural materials vary by local geology, so color and texture may differ from photos; if you have concerns, contact customer service promptly and reference your order details. We will work with you and the supplier to address issues according to our policies and help find a suitable solution. For future orders, request local samples or add notes about color and texture preferences at checkout.
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.
