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.

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.

Why Tarboro Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tarboro has a city population of 15,630 and sits within a growing regional market that supports expanding home improvement and building activity. A steady annual growth rate of 2.80% means more renovation projects, new driveways, and yard upgrades as homeowners respond to incremental demand; that steady, predictable growth tends to favor practical, long-lasting material choices over short-term fixes. The local climate—about 228 sunny days a year with 34.00 inches of annual rainfall in a USDA hardiness zone of 8b—creates a balance of dry and wet conditions that affects which aggregates and soils perform best. In this environment, homeowners and contractors prioritize materials that drain well, resist washout during heavy rains, and support plant health during hot, sunny stretches. Whether you need base material for paving, screened topsoil for planting, or mulch to retain moisture, quality bulk supplies sourced locally help projects last longer and need less maintenance.Popular Projects in Tarboro This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tarboro Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tarboro.
Local projects in Tarboro often use a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone depending on the job. Homeowners typically pick materials for appearance and drainage, while contractors prioritize load-bearing and compaction. If you are unsure, use our material quiz or contact our team for recommendations based on your project.
Tarboro’s seasonal rain and local soil types affect drainage and settling, so choose materials with the right permeability and compaction properties. For example, well-draining aggregates help surface runoff, while denser fill materials resist washout in wet spells. Consider local conditions and ask our team for suggestions tailored to Tarboro projects.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth in feet, then multiply and divide by 27 to get cubic yards (length x width x depth / 27). Use our online calculator to convert cubic yards to tons and to account for compaction or waste; as a reminder our minimum order is 3 tons. If you prefer, send project dimensions to our team and we can help with a quick estimate.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Many areas enjoy free delivery, but fees can vary with distance, truck type, and special services. Seasonal demand or local supply constraints can affect lead times, so we recommend ordering in advance for bigger projects.
Many residential deliveries do not require a permit, but local ordinances can limit stockpiles, obstructing public right-of-way, or grading changes that affect drainage. Before large deliveries or significant grading work, check with the Town of Tarboro or your homeowner association to confirm rules. When in doubt, contact our team and we can help point you toward local resources.
Deliveries are typically made with tri-axle dump trucks or similar heavy-haul vehicles, which can handle most residential and contractor orders. Drivers can perform tailgate drops or offload to a specific area at their discretion; however, spreading is not guaranteed. Ensure there is adequate access, room to turn, and no low overhead lines where the truck will operate.
Schedule deliveries on weekdays and allow a buffer of several days for weather-related delays, especially during the wetter seasons. Contractors often plan heavy deliveries for mornings or drier months to reduce ground disturbance and allow work to progress. If you have a tight timeline, consider the next-day delivery option when available and order early.
Choose materials based on function: permeable aggregates for drainage, heavier stone for stabilization, and screened dirt or topsoil for planting beds. Think about how water moves on your property, soil compatibility, and the finished appearance you want. Our sales team can recommend general options and point you to materials that perform well in the local climate.
Yes—demand typically rises in spring and fall, and storms or supply-chain disruptions can temporarily affect availability and price. Ordering ahead helps lock in materials and delivery slots, and our team can alert you to any local stock issues. Check zip-code availability on our site for the most up-to-date options.
Because materials are sourced regionally, texture and color can vary; if the delivery does not match your expectations, contact our customer service promptly so we can address the issue. For order changes, contact us as soon as possible—changes are easier before the order is dispatched and we will do our best to accommodate you. Refer to our refund and resolution processes for more details.

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.
