Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.

Rich black shredded hardwood mulch made from oak, hickory, and maple. Holds in moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your garden beds a bold look that makes green plants and colorful flowers stand out.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!
3/4″ Crushed Stone

Why Media Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Media has a population of 35,866 and sits inside a broader metro region of 2.6+ million. A steady growth rate of 1.80% annually points to ongoing demand for housing updates, infrastructure work, and outdoor improvements—translating into consistent need for bulk landscaping and construction materials. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.32 inches of annual rainfall, and located in hardiness zone 8b, local projects benefit from a moderate climate but must handle both wet and sunny periods. Homeowners in Media are increasingly focused on practical upgrades—better drainage, erosion control, durable surfaces, and productive planting beds—which makes access to dependable bulk supplies (topsoil, fill, sand, mulch, and various aggregates) and timely delivery especially important. Because regional sourcing reflects local geology, choosing materials that perform well here helps projects last longer and reduces callbacks.Popular Projects in Media This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Media Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Media.
Prices vary by material type, weight, local supplier rates, and delivery distance. For most projects the best way to get an accurate cost is to enter your zip code on our site and request a quote, keeping in mind our minimum order is 3 tons and final price includes delivery and regional sourcing.
Bulk materials are commonly sold by the ton or by the cubic yard, depending on the supplier and material density. Use our online calculator or contact our team to convert between tons and cubic yards and to choose quantities that fit your project.
There are common depth guidelines: many mulches perform well at about 2 to 3 inches, while decorative rock or stone may be placed 1 to 3 inches for surface cover and several inches where drainage or weed suppression is needed. Always check product recommendations, consider plant health and drainage, and ask our team for project-specific guidance.
Bulk delivery is usually more cost-effective per unit for medium and large projects because it eliminates bagging and handling costs, while bagged materials can be better for very small jobs or when you need easy storage. Compare total costs including delivery fees, minimum order quantities, and your ability to move and store material on site.
Most local deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that commonly carry about 10 to 14 tons or roughly 10 to 12 cubic yards, but exact capacity varies with material density and truck type. If you need a precise amount for your project, check the product page or ask our team to match truck size to your order.
Spring and fall are often ideal for installing mulch, topsoil, and planting mixes because moderate temperatures and seasonal rainfall help materials settle and support plant establishment. Avoid delivery during heavy freezes or extreme heat when material handling and spreading are more difficult.
Hello Gravel primarily coordinates bulk deliveries by dump truck through our local supplier network, but some suppliers may offer bagged or palletized products on request. Check the product listing for availability or contact our sales team to see if a supplier in Media can arrange palletized delivery.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request the service at checkout, but the driver will assess safety and practicality on arrival. We do not guarantee spreading services, so plan for a separate spreading crew or tools if precise placement is required.
Start by deciding on function (load-bearing, drainage, weed control, or appearance) and match materials that meet those needs; for example, materials that compact well suit driveways, while lighter, porous materials work better for planting beds. Consider local climate and regional material variations, use our material quiz and calculator, and contact our specialists for recommendations tailored to your project.
Clear a staging area with adequate access and overhead clearance, note any weight limits or HOA rules, and mark the preferred drop zone in the order notes. Expect standard delivery lead time of 2+ business days with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST; contact our team promptly if plans change or site conditions could affect delivery.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
Use our material calculator here: https://hellogravel.com/calculator/ to enter the length, width and depth measurements of your project. It will automatically calculate the cubic yards/tons needed. If you are unsure how much to order, contact our team for guidance.
Please type in your zip code on any product screen and it will let you know if we service your area. The chances are that we do!
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!
