Materials Available for Delivery
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
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.
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.
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.
#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 Rockwell Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Rockwell, North Carolina, is home to 9,730 residents and sits inside a broader metro area of 2.3+ million people that is growing at about 2.80% annually. That steady growth translates into consistent demand for both new construction and home-improvement projects—from small yard upgrades to larger additions—so homeowners and contractors are frequently sourcing bulk materials for foundations, drainage, and landscaping. With about 228 sunny days per year, 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, local projects need materials that balance drainage, durability, and plant compatibility. In this environment, reliable access to a range of aggregates, topsoil, sand, and mulch helps ensure projects withstand seasonal wet spells and long sunny stretches while supporting landscape plantings common to the region. Local climate and weather patterns in Rockwell create practical requirements for material performance: moderate annual rainfall means drainage and erosion control matter, while extended sunny periods increase drying and UV exposure for organic mulches. Soil conditions and seasonal moisture swings influence compaction, settling, and plant establishment, so choosing the right blend of base materials, fill, and surface coverings is important for long-term performance. Hello Gravel helps homeowners by connecting them with locally sourced suppliers, offering calculators and guidance to match material choice and quantities to Rockwell's conditions, and arranging delivery timing that fits project schedules.Popular Projects in Rockwell This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Rockwell Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Rockwell.
Delivery costs vary with distance, material type, and load size. Expect per-ton or per-yard pricing that can change by supplier and season; small orders also face minimums (Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons). For a precise estimate, enter your zip code on our site or request a quote so we can show local rates and any delivery fees or next-day options.
Hello Gravel connects you to a network of local quarries, landscape suppliers, and haulers that service Rockwell and surrounding areas. Supplier availability depends on your zip code and the material you need, so check availability online or contact our team to see which local partners deliver to your address.
Rockwell and the surrounding region commonly have mixed soils that can include clay and loam, which affect drainage and compaction. Choose materials and base layers that promote drainage and stability—for example, coarser materials in wet areas or a well-draining base under patios and driveways—and plan for edging and proper slope to direct water away from structures.
Spring through fall are generally the easiest seasons for exterior work in Rockwell because of milder temperatures and fewer freeze-thaw cycles. Summer can bring heavy afternoon storms, and winter can introduce occasional freezes that complicate compaction and curing, so plan projects with local weather patterns in mind and allow extra time during wet or cold periods.
Permit and HOA requirements vary by neighborhood and county; some projects like major driveway work, changes to impervious surfaces, or work in regulated riparian areas may need permits. Always check with Rockwell town offices, Rowan County planning, and your HOA before ordering materials so you can meet setbacks, drainage, and surface limits.
Labor rates vary by contractor, scope, and project complexity; many local pros price by the hour, by the square foot, or with flat project bids. Get at least three local estimates, and ask contractors to include material handling, site prep, and disposal so you can compare apples to apples when budgeting for both materials and labor.
Repeated heavy rain and occasional freeze-thaw cycles can cause erosion, shifting, and settling if materials and installation are not designed for local conditions. Prioritize good drainage, proper compaction, and appropriate base layers for long-term performance, and plan for periodic maintenance like regrading or topping to address settled or washed areas.
Quantities depend on area and depth, but here are rough examples: a 10x30 ft driveway at 3 inches deep is about 3 cubic yards, and at 6 inches about 6 cubic yards; a 12x12 ft patio at 2 inches deep is about 1.1 cubic yards; a 3x30 ft walkway at 2 inches is about 0.7 cubic yards. Because material weight and coverage vary, always use a calculator or request help from our team to convert cubic yards to tons for the specific material you choose.
Yes, some local suppliers and recycling centers offer reclaimed or fill materials, but availability and quality vary by location and season. Recycled options can be cost effective for subgrade fill or non-visible areas, but verify composition and compaction requirements to ensure they meet your project needs before ordering.
Yes, projects near streams, steep slopes, or drainage channels often need erosion control measures and different material selections to prevent washouts. For work in riparian or erosion-prone zones, plan for larger stone or engineered solutions, check local permitting, and discuss stabilization options with suppliers or contractors familiar with Rockwell's conditions.
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.
