Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Bells, TN

Start by matching the material to the job: think about load (cars vs foot traffic), drainage needs, desired look, and how much maintenance you want. Gravel, sand, dirt, stone each perform differently: some compact well for driveways, others are best for beds or drainage layers. Regional sourcing means texture and color can vary in West Tennessee, so ask for local samples or photos and use our material quiz or sales team for guidance.

Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days from order; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (commonly tri-axle) and have a 3-ton minimum order. You can choose a delivery date at checkout and should verify availability for your zip code.

Yes — most local suppliers deliver to rural homes and small subdivisions, but access limits like narrow roads, low-hanging wires, gated entries, or weight-restricted lanes can affect delivery. Provide clear access instructions and best contact info at checkout so the driver can plan. If access is tight, the supplier may offer alternate drop locations or refuse tailgate spreading for safety.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) ÷ 27 = cubic yards. Convert cubic yards to tons using a rough density range of 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material (1.4 is a common average) and always round up for waste and compaction. Use our online material calculator or call our team at 855-241-8884 for help with estimates.

Bells and West Tennessee see humid conditions and occasional freeze/thaw cycles, so plan heavy installs for drier months (spring through fall) when soils are stable. Avoid deliveries and spreading when the ground is saturated to prevent rutting and poor compaction. Also plan for drainage — sloping, base layers, and adequate runoff help materials perform through wet seasons and freezes.

Permit and HOA rules vary by neighborhood and project type, and you should check with the City of Bells, Benton County, and your HOA before ordering materials. Common restrictions include allowed surface materials, driveway width, drainage requirements, and curb cuts. Getting approvals early prevents delays and extra costs from having to remove or replace materials.

Price depends on the type of material, distance from the supplier, load size, site access, and time of year. Additional fees may apply for next-day delivery, difficult access, short loads, or special spreading requests. For accurate pricing, get a quote through the checkout by entering your zip code or contact our team for a tailored estimate.

Trucks will typically dump material in a single pile at the agreed spot; drivers may be able to do tailgate spreading at their discretion but this is not guaranteed. Clear the delivery area of vehicles, kids, and pets and mark the exact drop location to avoid confusion. If spreading is important, request it at checkout and discuss feasibility with the driver on arrival.

Natural materials vary by region, so color, size, and texture may not exactly match photos; if appearance is critical, ask for local photos or samples before delivery. Contact our customer service as soon as possible if you need to modify an order — changes are easier before processing or dispatch but cannot always be guaranteed. If there is a quality or delivery issue, reach out and we will work with you and the supplier to resolve it.

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.
