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.

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.
#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.

Why Washington Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Washington homeowners live in a city with a city population of 41,046 that is experiencing steady expansion. A local growth rate of 1.80% annually signals ongoing demand for both new construction and home improvements, from driveway repairs and patio installs to garden upgrades and small commercial projects. The broader regional market — a metro area population of 2.6+ million — supports a healthy supply chain and contractor base, but also means competition for delivery windows and materials during busy seasons. With 228 sunny days per year, moderate annual rainfall of 34.32 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b, projects here favor materials and mixes that balance permeability and durability. Homeowners need reliable bulk supplies — topsoil and compost blends for planting, stable base materials for hardscapes, and well-graded aggregates for drainage — chosen to perform under local weather and soil patterns rather than generic specs alone.Popular Projects in Washington This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Washington Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Washington.
Homeowners and contractors in Washington typically order a mix of base and finish materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, stone and mulches depending on the project. Base materials are used for structural work like driveways and pads, while finer or decorative materials are used for top dressing, pathways, and planting beds. Local suppliers offer materials that reflect West Pennsylvania geology, so color and texture can vary.
Freeze-thaw cycles and wet springs in Washington can heave poorly drained fills and break down fine materials over time, so good drainage and proper compaction are essential. Choosing materials with good drainage and adding a stable base helps reduce movement and rutting during freeze-thaw. Schedule installations during drier months when possible to allow proper compaction and settling.
Many online marketplaces and local suppliers set a minimum order around 3 tons, though exact minimums can vary by supplier and material. Standard delivery is commonly scheduled 2+ business days after ordering, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before a local cutoff (often with an extra fee). Delivery fees depend on distance, site access, and whether a property is rural or requires special handling.
Next-day delivery is often available if you order before the supplier's cutoff time and the delivery area is accessible, but same-day delivery is less common. Rural addresses, tight access, or permit needs can limit quick turnarounds, so provide clear directions and photos at checkout to improve scheduling. Expect an additional fee for expedited service in many cases.
On slopes and clay-heavy soils, choose materials and installation methods that emphasize drainage and stability rather than a particular product—materials with angular particles and a well-prepared base help lock in place. Adding geotextile fabric, a compacted base layer, and good surface drainage reduces sliding and erosion. For planting beds, use mixes that improve soil structure and drainage rather than just adding more top material.
Yes, many properties require permits or must follow local rules for driveway cuts, curb work, stormwater changes, or significant grading, and HOAs often have covenants governing surface materials and appearance. Check Washington city and Washington County permitting offices and your HOA guidelines before ordering to avoid delays. If you’re unsure, your contractor or supplier can often point you to the right local contacts.
Late spring through early fall is typically best for installing hardscape bases and surface materials because soils are drier and compaction is easier. Avoid working in frozen ground or during heavy rains and thaw periods, which can prevent proper compaction and lead to settling. Plan big installs for moderate weather and allow time for drying and settling before heavy use.
Prices vary by material type, local supply, and truck distance; structural base materials tend to be priced differently than decorative or topsoil mixes. Suppliers typically price by the ton or cubic yard, and regional geology can make some materials more or less expensive in West Pennsylvania. Use the material calculator and get a quote to compare costs for the quantities you need.
Common access issues include narrow streets, low-hanging wires, weight-restricted roads or bridges, tight driveways, and limited turnaround space for dump trucks. Grade, surface firmness, and overhead obstacles affect whether a truck can get close enough to place material where you want it. Provide clear directions and photos at checkout and note any restrictions so the hauler can plan the best route and equipment.
Before ordering, clear the area of debris, mark utilities, and ensure proper grading and drainage so materials perform as expected. Contractors and homeowners should plan for compaction, subgrade preparation, edge restraint installation, and a staging area for trucks and material piles. Order a little extra to account for compaction and waste, and contact customer service if you need help calculating quantities or scheduling delivery.
Start by defining the project's purpose—structure, drainage, or appearance—and pick materials that meet those needs while fitting your budget and maintenance preferences. Consider local climate, slope, and access, and use available tools like a material calculator or a short consultation with the sales team to match material type and quantity to your site. If in doubt, request samples or ask the supplier about local uses for similar projects in West Pennsylvania.

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.
