Materials Available for Delivery
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.
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.
#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.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.

Why Mocanaqua Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Mocanaqua's city population is 1,000 and it sits within a broader metro area of 2.6+ million residents. A steady 1.80% annual growth rate points to gradual but reliable demand for home improvement and smaller-scale construction projects — think driveways, patios, foundation repairs, and garden expansions. With 34.32 inches of annual rainfall and 228 sunny days per year in hardiness zone 8b, local projects must balance wet-season drainage with a long growing season. That mix increases the need for a range of quality bulk materials: topsoil and amended soils for planting beds, loose fill and engineered backfill for grading, base materials for stable driveways, and erosion-control aggregates on slopes. For homeowners this means prioritizing material consistency, accurate quantity estimates, and reliable delivery windows to keep projects on schedule and suited to Mooranaqua's conditions.Popular Projects in Mocanaqua This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Mocanaqua Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Mocanaqua.
Homeowners in Mocanaqua often order a mix of materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, garden beds, drainage projects, and hardscape bases. Choices depend on function: structural projects need well-draining, compactable material while decorative areas can use cleaner, more uniform stone. Use our material quiz or contact the team for a recommendation based on your project and local conditions.
Delivery costs depend on distance from the supplier, the truck type, and the weight or volume of the load; Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons. In many areas free delivery is available, but remote or long-haul drops may incur a fee; next-day delivery is possible for orders placed before noon CST for an extra charge. Get an exact quote by entering your zip code and preferred delivery date at checkout.
For Mocanaqua’s freeze-thaw conditions, choose well-draining, angular materials that shed water and compact well to reduce frost heave risk. Avoid mixes with high fine content where water can collect and freeze; good drainage and proper base preparation matter more than any single product. Speak with our team about options that balance durability and appearance for your specific location and use.
Permit needs vary by township and project type; common issues include driveway approach permits, curb or roadside delivery restrictions, and rules for grading near streams or wetlands. Check with Mocanaqua or Luzerne County offices before large projects, especially if you need to change curb cuts or alter drainage. If you are unsure, contact our sales team and we can suggest what to ask your local permitting office.
Late spring through early fall is usually the most reliable window in Mocanaqua for grading, driveways, and patio work because the ground is thawed and drier. Avoid scheduling major deliveries during heavy winter freeze-thaw periods or during peak rainy months when trucks can get stuck and compaction may be poor. Plan at least a few weeks ahead and use our checkout calendar to pick a delivery date that aligns with local weather forecasts.
Typical quantities vary by project size and depth: small landscaping beds often need 1 to 3 cubic yards, a backyard patio base 3 to 6 cubic yards, and a standard gravel driveway 10 to 30 cubic yards depending on length and thickness. One cubic yard can weigh differently by material, so estimates convert to tons; use our online calculator or contact us with project dimensions for precise figures. We can also help you round up slightly to allow for compaction and grading.
Many suppliers and trucking contractors in our network focus on delivery only, but some local suppliers and partner contractors offer installation, grading, and compaction services. If you need installation, mention it when you order and we can connect you with local installers or recommend next steps. Expect installation services to be quoted separately from material and delivery costs.
Common access challenges include narrow residential streets, low overhead wires or tree limbs, steep or soft driveways, and limited turnaround space for large trucks. Measure gate widths, driveway slope, and any overhead obstructions before ordering, and add notes or photos in checkout so your hauler can plan the safest drop. Consider protecting lawns or pavers with plywood or requesting a different drop location if the primary spot is not truck-accessible.
Pick a material based on the primary need: drainage needs favor coarser, well-draining mixes; load-bearing areas require angular, compactable material and a proper base; decorative areas can prioritize color and texture. Combine materials in layers when needed (base material below, finer top layer above) and consider geotextile fabric for separation and stabilization. Contact our team for guidance on layer thicknesses and combinations that work in local soil and climate conditions.
Clear the drop area of vehicles, garden items, and hazards, and mark the preferred spot with stakes or cones so the driver can see it quickly. Communicate any special instructions in order notes and be ready to inspect the load on arrival; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if it's safe. Take photos of the delivery and contact customer service promptly if anything is missing or if the material appears significantly different from expectations.
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.

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!
