Why Mount Airy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mount Airy has a population of 29,756 and sits within a broader West North Carolina metro that totals 2.3+ million residents. With a steady growth rate of 2.80% annually, demand for residential renovations, new yards, and infill construction is rising — not a boom overnight, but consistent expansion that translates into more driveways, drainage work, garden beds, and hardscaping projects. Local climate factors — 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b — mean homeowners need a range of reliable bulk materials. Well-graded base materials, drainage rock, topsoil blends, mulches, and surfacing aggregates all play roles here; each material’s performance is shaped by this mix of sunshine and periodic heavy rain. For Mount Airy homeowners, choosing materials that balance drainage, freeze-thaw resilience, and plant establishment will help projects last longer and require less maintenance.Popular Projects in Mount Airy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mount Airy Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mount Airy.
Choose materials based on use and drainage: for vehicle traffic select an aggregate mix designed to compact well, for walkways use smaller, stable stone or sand-based materials, and for patios choose a uniform base stone topped with a decorative surface. Consider local climate and soil: Mount Airy is inland with seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, so prioritize materials that drain well and resist movement. Use our material quiz or call our team for a recommendation.
Pick materials that promote drainage and slow runoff, such as coarser aggregates and well-graded mixes that allow water to pass while limiting erosion. Combine materials with proper grading, landscape fabric, and vegetation or retaining features to stabilize slopes. Plan quantity and placement to handle seasonal storms common to West North Carolina.
Typical estimates: 1 inch of material covers about 314 square feet per ton; a 3-inch gravel driveway base on a 10x30 ft area needs roughly 3 to 4 tons. Always measure your area and desired depth, then use our online calculator for precise amounts. Minimum order is 3 tons, so account for that when planning small projects.
Materials are sourced locally, so color and texture reflect West North Carolina geology and can vary from supplier to supplier. Photos are representative; expect natural variation in hue and grain. If color matters, note preferences in Order Notes and our team will try to match your request where possible.
Standard delivery requires 2+ business days with no extra fee, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets, typically tri-axle trucks, and minimum orders apply. You can choose a preferred delivery date at checkout and should confirm access and parking for the truck.
Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on safety and site conditions. Request spreading at checkout; the driver will assess on arrival. For precise spreading or landscaping, plan to hire a local contractor or use rental equipment.
Provide a clear, level access path at least as wide as a tri-axle dump truck; avoid low-hanging wires, narrow gates, and soft ground. Mark the intended drop zone and remove vehicles or obstacles beforehand. If access is limited, consider a smaller truck option where available or select a drop-off point that minimizes property risk.
Clear vegetation and debris, establish a defined drop zone, and mark utilities or sensitive areas to avoid. For base layers, grade and compact the area before placing material to reduce settling. If unsure, ask our team for project-specific prep tips when you order.
Mount Airy experiences seasonal rain and freeze-thaw cycles, so schedule deliveries for drier periods when possible and choose materials that drain well and resist frost heave. Wet conditions can make delivery and spreading more difficult and may increase compaction needs. Plan larger earthwork for late spring through early fall when the ground is more stable.
Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to modify or cancel an order; changes are easier before processing and dispatch. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications depend on supplier and truck scheduling. See the checkout and confirmation emails for specific cutoff times and instructions.
Some large-scale fills or changes to driveways and drainage may require local permits or compliance with Mount Airy and Surry County regulations. Check with local authorities before ordering for major grading, retaining walls, or large deliveries that could impact public right-of-way. Our sales team can remind you to verify permits when you place an order.

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.
