Materials Available for Delivery
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.
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.
#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.
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.

Why Tar Heel Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tar Heel is a small but growing community of 750 residents, and its placement inside a broader West North Carolina metro area of 2.3+ million people experiencing a 2.80% annual growth rate means steady demand for home improvement and local construction projects. That steady growth translates to more driveway repairs, garden makeovers, and small-scale infill development — all of which depend on reliable supplies of bulk materials. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, local climate and geography favor materials that balance good drainage with erosion resistance. Homeowners here often need a mix of stable base materials, workable topsoil and compost for planting beds, and versatile aggregates that handle both wet winters and long, sunny periods without excessive maintenance.Popular Projects in Tar Heel This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tar Heel Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tar Heel.
St. Art with the job: consider load, drainage, appearance, and maintenance. For structural surfaces choose materials that compact well and handle weight; for drainage choose free-draining materials; for planting beds choose materials that support plant growth or topsoil. Use our material calculator and contact our team for recommendations based on local conditions.
Price depends on the amount you order, the distance from the supplier, local avaIlability, and current demand. Site access, special delivery requirements, and seasonal demand can add fees. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and taxes or local fees may apply.
Measure the area (length x width) and choose the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards and to tons using a calculator. Different materials have different weights, so use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team to get an accurate estimate. Ordering a little extra for compaction and grading is common practice.
Yes. Tar Heel’s humid, rainy climate and occasional freeze-thaw cycles can affect drainage and settling. Schedule outdoor deliveries when the ground is not saturated and pick materials suited to wet conditions if drainage is important. Plan ahead for busy seasons, when supply or truck avaIlability can be limited.
Common projects include driveways and parking pads, patio and paver bases, landscape beds and edging, erosion control, backfill, and utility trench fill. Both homeowners and contractors use bulk materials for new construction, repairs, and grading work. Each project has different material and depth needs, so plan accordingly.
Standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days and is avaIlable at no extra fee in many areas. Next-day delivery is avaIlable for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries are made by local contracted dump truck fleets (usually tri-axle trucks), and you choose your preferred date at checkout.
We require a minimum order of 3 tons. Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so clear access and enough turning room are important; tight access may require a smaller truck or extra fee. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but this service is not guaranteed.
Not always. Materials are sourced regionally so color, texture, and sizing can vary based on local geology and natural variation. You can add color or appearance notes at checkout, and contact customer service if what you received is substantially different from your order.
Clear the drop area of vehicles, toys, and debris and mark the preferred drop location with stakes or cones. Protect delicate surfaces like finished driveways or lawns and make sure there is safe access for a large dump truck. Have someone onsite to direct the driver when the truck arrives.
Match the material pRoperties to your goals: pick denser, compactable materials for load-bearing surfaces, free-draining materials for infiltration or drainage layers, and finer materials for leveling or bedding. For planting or lawn projects choose dirt/topsoil blends designed for growth. If you are unsure, use our quiz or call our team for a recommendation based on your project and local conditions.
Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order. We will do our best to accommodate requests before the order is processed or dispatched, but changes may be limited once a truck is scheduled. Additional charges may apply depending on timing and supplier policies.
If there is a problem, contact customer service promptly and provide photos and order details. We will work with the supplier and hauler to find a satisfactory resolution. For specifics on refunds or claims, please see our refund policy or reach out to our support team.
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.
