3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.
#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.
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.
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.
3/4″ Crushed Stone
A reliable, clean ¾” crushed granite or limestone with many applications. Great for gravel driveways, concrete mixes, landscaping applications, and backfilling retaining walls or around foundations.

Why Uptown Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Uptown, with a city population of 12,000 and located within a larger metro area of 2.4+ million, is seeing steady, modest growth at 0.69% annually. That steady expansion translates into a consistent stream of home improvement and infill projects rather than a construction boom—think driveway repairs, garden renovations, small additions, and layered landscaping over time. Uptown's temperate conditions (228 sunny days per year and 33.50 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b) mean homeowners need materials that balance drainage, stability, and plant health. In this environment, reliable bulk supplies—gravel for drainage and driveways, sand and stone for stable bases, topsoil and compost for planting beds, and mulch for moisture retention—play complementary roles. Quality, properly graded materials reduce rework, manage water runoff, and support planting choices that thrive in a longer growing season, which keeps maintenance and replacement costs lower over time.Popular Projects in Uptown This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Uptown Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Uptown.
Prices vary by material type, local supplier, and delivery distance. As a rough guide, many common aggregates fall in a wide range per ton or per cubic yard; exact pricing depends on regional availability and load size. Hello Gravel shows clear pricing at checkout and you can get a quote for your zip code to see current local rates in the Pennsylvania Region.
Choose materials that drain well and compact reliably to resist freeze-thaw heaving. For heavy use, angular, well-graded base materials with a permeable top layer work best; finer materials are useful for leveling but not always ideal for a finished driving surface. Consider drainage, edge restraints, and a compacted base when comparing options like gravel, sand, dirt, stone.
Spring through fall is usually the easiest time for deliveries and installations because of milder weather and fewer frozen-ground restrictions. Deliveries can happen year-round, but winter storms, frozen ground, and saturated soils may slow contractors or add cost. Choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and allow extra lead time during busy seasons.
Hello Gravel offers standard delivery in 2+ business days and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST with an extra fee. Typical deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks with a minimum order around 3 tons; some areas offer free delivery depending on distance and supplier. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed; specific fees and truck access requirements appear during checkout.
Permits or approvals may be required for work that affects the public right-of-way, curb cuts, or stormwater connections, and some neighborhoods have homeowner association rules. Requirements vary by municipality in the Pennsylvania Region, so check local public works, zoning offices, or your HOA before starting large deliveries or driveway replacement. If in doubt, contact city offices to confirm permit needs.
Soil that holds water (like heavy clay) needs better-draining base layers to prevent settling and frost issues, while sandy soils may require more compaction and stabilization. Match your material selection to the site: use permeable, angular materials where drainage is a concern and finer, dress-up materials where drainage is already good. You can also ask Hello Gravel’s team for guidance based on your general site conditions and the Pennsylvania Region climate.
Quantities depend on project size, depth of material, and whether you are building a base or topping a surface. Small garden beds or edging often need 1-3 cubic yards, a walk or small path may need 3-10 tons, and driveway resurfacing commonly ranges from about 10 to 40+ tons depending on length and depth. Use the online material calculator to convert your dimensions into tons or cubic yards and remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is around 3 tons.
Contractors often provide a material-only price plus a separate labor and equipment charge for site prep, grading, compaction, and clean-up. Some contractors include a markup on materials and others bill materials at cost and charge a flat or hourly installation rate, so get itemized estimates. For straightforward supply-only needs, Hello Gravel can deliver materials so you can compare contractor bids easily.
Materials with loose fines or organic components tend to shift, compact, or break down faster and may need more frequent topping, raking, or replacement after freeze-thaw cycles. Harder, well-compacted bases usually require less upkeep but may still need occasional regrading or edging. Many homeowners hire contractors for annual maintenance or major repairs, especially for driveways and drainage fixes.
Return and exchange policies vary by supplier and are constrained by the nature of bulk deliveries: once material is delivered and dumped it is often difficult to take back. You should contact Hello Gravel or the supplier as soon as possible to request changes before dispatch; after delivery, options are limited and handled case-by-case. We recommend confirming material type, color preferences (noting regional variation), and delivery placement in your order notes before checkout.
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.
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!
