Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Aurora, OR

Start by matching the material's performance to the job: stability and drainage for driveways, fine texture for play areas, and erosion control for slopes. In Aurora's wet, mild climate, look for materials that compact well and shed water; regional sourcing means color and texture may vary. Use our material calculator or contact our team for a recommendation based on your project dimensions and traffic levels.

In a wet, mild climate, drainage, particle shape, and compaction are most important for long-term performance. Choose materials that allow water to pass through or be directed away from surfaces, and compactable mixes that resist rutting. Local geology affects performance, so expect some variation in texture and color.

Bulk aggregates work well for driveways, pathways, base layers under patios, raised beds, drainage trenches, and grading repairs. They are also used for erosion control, backfill, and temporary access roads. Match the material grade and depth to the specific use and local site conditions.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the required depth in inches, then use a calculator to convert to cubic yards or tons. Our online material calculator and aggregate quiz can help translate those measurements into recommended tonnage for typical materials. Allow for 5-10% extra for compaction, grading, and waste.

Costs vary by material type, quantity, and distance to the supplier, but a useful rule of thumb is that delivery and material together typically range widely depending on local rates and availability. Hello Gravel lists clear pricing at checkout for your zip code; the minimum order is 3 tons. For an exact estimate, enter your zip code and project details on our site or contact our sales team.

Standard delivery takes 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are performed by contracted dump truck fleets, usually tri-axle trucks, so confirm driveway access, overhead clearance, and placement location before the truck arrives. Provide a clear delivery spot and contact number to avoid delays.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and only if it can be done safely; request this option at checkout. Placement is generally as close to the drop zone as the truck can safely reach, but exact placement and spreading are not guaranteed. For precise distribution, consider hiring a local contractor after delivery.

Local zoning, Aurora city codes, or HOA covenants may restrict visible materials, color palettes, or require permits for certain landscaping or grading work. Check with the City of Aurora and your HOA before ordering materials, especially for projects that change drainage, alter grading, or modify curb appeal. If you need help, contact our team to discuss typical permit-related considerations.

Proper preparation usually includes clearing vegetation, rough grading, installing edging or forms, and ensuring a stable base for compaction. For driveways and high-traffic areas, contractors recommend proper subgrade preparation and compaction and planning for drainage to prevent water pooling. Discuss your project's needs with a contractor or our team to choose the right depth and base materials.

Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes; modifications are easier before an order is processed or dispatched. If a delivery issue or material concern occurs, report it promptly with photos and order details so our team can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve it. Keep in mind that natural materials vary by region, so exact color or texture matches are not guaranteed.

Choose based on function: coarser mixes generally provide better drainage and load-bearing capacity, while finer materials give a smoother, more compact finish for paths or play areas. Consider traffic level, drainage needs, and aesthetic preferences when choosing a blend. If unsure, request a recommendation based on your project's use and location in Aurora.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
