3/8″ Natural Pea Gravel

Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
Compost
Premium compost packed with organic nutrients—perfect for revitalizing tired soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth. Ideal for mixing into garden beds, raised beds, and landscapes needing a natural boost.
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.

Why Prospect Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Prospect is a small but active community with a city population of 2,766 that benefits from being part of a larger regional economy (metro area population 2.6+ million). A steady annual growth rate of 1.80% means more home upgrades, driveways, and small-scale development projects—steady demand rather than a construction boom. Local climate and geography drive practical material choices: with 228 sunny days per year, 34.32 inches of rainfall annually, and a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners need materials that handle moderate precipitation, resist sun exposure, and perform through seasonal temperature shifts. That translates into attention to drainage, stable base layers, and erosion control across landscaping, paths, and foundation work. In this environment, high-quality bulk materials—dirt blends for planting, sand for leveling, and well-graded aggregates for drainage and compaction—help projects last longer and require less maintenance over time.Popular Projects in Prospect This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Prospect Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Prospect.
Choose materials based on intended use, drainage, and look. For heavy-use areas pick a denser, well-graded aggregate for strength and compaction; for garden beds or top dressing choose finer, more workable materials. Consider how the material performs in local freeze-thaw conditions and ask about local regional variations when you order.
Freeze-thaw cycles can cause heaving and surface breakdown if water is trapped in the base or surface. Pick materials and construction methods that promote drainage and compaction, such as a stable, well-graded base and proper slope away from structures. Expect to plan for good drainage and maintenance to keep surfaces performing longer.
Measure the project area (length x width) and decide on the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards: (square feet x depth in feet) / 27. Different materials have different weights, so use a material calculator or our online tool to convert cubic yards to tons and add 10-15% for waste, compaction, and grading. If you need help, use Hello Gravel's calculator or contact our team for a quick estimate.
Local rules vary, so check with your borough or township office and county departments before work begins. Common issues include driveway permits, curb cuts, stormwater and setback requirements; if you are near a state road contact PennDOT. When in doubt, call the local permitting office or your contractor to confirm requirements.
Hello Gravel generally requires a 3-ton minimum order and delivers via contracted dump trucks. Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; many areas offer free delivery but charges can apply for long hauls, tight access, or small loads. Final delivery cost depends on your zip code, access, and requested services, so check pricing in checkout or request a quote.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if conditions allow, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on access and safety. For best results—especially for driveways, base layers, and graded beds—hire a local contractor who can grade, compact, and finish the surface properly. Request spreading at checkout and confirm expectations with your contractor and the driver on arrival.
Ask neighbors or local Facebook/community groups for recent recommendations and look for contractors with local references and photos of similar work. Get multiple written estimates, confirm insurance and schedule, and verify that the contractor has experience with the specific materials and truck access in your neighborhood. Also ensure the hauler's truck size fits your driveway or drop area and that everyone understands the delivery timing and site prep needs.
Provide clear vehicle access and mark the exact drop location with spray paint or stakes so the driver can place the load safely. Remove cars, low branches, and obstacles, and make sure the ground can support a loaded dump truck; consider using plywood for soft spots. If you need the material moved or spread after delivery, arrange a contractor or request tailgate spreading at checkout knowing it may not be possible in every situation.
Materials are regionally sourced so texture and color can vary based on local geology, and natural materials will always show some variation. Photos and samples are intended as guides; if color or gradation is important, note preferences in your order notes and contact customer service with questions before delivery. If the material does not meet expectations, reach out promptly so we can help resolve it.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible—changes are easiest to accommodate before an order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to modify orders but ability to change or cancel depends on supplier and logistics; check our refund policy or contact customer service for specifics.
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.

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.
