Why Stokes Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Stokes has a city population of 1,150 and sits within a growing regional market where a metro area population of 2.3+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.80% annually point to steady development pressure. That continued growth tends to translate into steady demand for landscaping and small-to-medium construction projects — from driveway repairs and drainage upgrades to garden installations and outdoor living areas. With 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.00 inches in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners need materials that balance moisture management and durability. In practice that means choosing supplies that control erosion, encourage reliable drainage, and support plantings suited to 8b conditions. Access to quality bulk materials—gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and various stone products—helps projects finish faster and last longer under local climate stresses.Popular Projects in Stokes This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Stokes Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Stokes.
Decide based on use, drainage needs, and appearance. For load-bearing areas choose materials that compact well; for planting beds pick materials that support drainage and plant health. Consider climate and local soil conditions in Stokes, and use our material calculator or contact our team for a recommendation.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Materials are delivered by contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle); you can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout. Tailgate spreading can be requested but is performed at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed.
Measure the area you need to cover and decide on the desired depth, then use an online material calculator or our calculator tool to convert volume to tons. Because materials weigh differently, the calculator accounts for that, but you can also contact our sales team for a quick estimate. Ordering slightly more than the calculated amount helps account for compaction and waste.
Many local suppliers and haulers serve rural and tight-access properties around Stokes, but delivery options depend on roadway access, driveway strength, and distance. Shorter trucks or alternate drop locations may be required, and an access fee can apply. Provide clear delivery notes and photos if you have restricted access so we can match the right truck.
Wet or freezing conditions can make delivery, spreading, and compaction harder, and some materials perform differently in heavy rain or freeze-thaw cycles. Plan outdoor deliveries for dry windows when possible, and choose materials and installation methods suited to local rainfall and soil drainage. If work must happen in shoulder seasons, allow extra time and consider hiring a contractor experienced with local conditions.
Delivery cost varies by distance, load size, site access, and whether you need expedited service; in many areas Hello Gravel negotiates free delivery, but fees can apply for long hauls or next-day requests. The best way to get an accurate delivery price is to enter your zip code and delivery details at checkout or request a quote. We require a minimum order (typically 3 tons) and will show any delivery fees before you pay.
For small, simple jobs like laying a shallow path or topping beds, many homeowners can do it themselves. Larger jobs that require grading, compaction, drainage work, or precise finish levels are often faster and more reliable when done by a contractor. If you are unsure, get a contractor quote and compare their labor cost to your time and tool rental; our team can help connect you to local pros.
Local permit and HOA requirements vary; simple garden beds rarely need permits, but driveway relocations, major grading, or runoff changes may require approvals from the city or county. Check Stokes and Pitt County planning departments and any HOA covenants before ordering large quantities. When in doubt, contact our sales team for guidance and plan orders with potential permitting timelines in mind.
Contractors in the region often combine aggregates with geotextile, edging, and vegetation to stabilize slopes and improve drainage. Choosing materials that help water move away from foundations and prevent soil loss is key; the right option depends on slope steepness, soil type, and local rainfall patterns. Consult a contractor or our team for a site-specific approach and material recommendations.
You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers only perform it at their discretion after assessing safety and site conditions. Spreading is not guaranteed and is not a substitute for professional installation when precise grading is needed. For accurate placement and finished work, consider hiring an installation crew or contractor.
Some local suppliers and contractors provide combined delivery-plus-installation packages, but availability varies by supplier and job size. When requesting quotes, ask if the supplier or a recommended contractor can include spreading, compaction, and site cleanup. Our platform can help connect you to suppliers and haulers who offer combined services or refer local installers.
Because materials are sourced regionally, color, texture, and size can vary based on local geology and production methods. Photos are representative; we cannot guarantee an exact match, but you can add color or texture preferences in Order Notes and contact our team for help selecting a closer match. If the material differs significantly from your expectations, reach out to customer service so we can help resolve it.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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!
