Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Louisville, TN

For most projects consider materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, stone. Choose based on the project's needs: drainage and stability for driveways and pathways, fine material for leveling and grading, and decorative mixes for landscaping. Local suppliers may offer regional variations in color and texture, so request photos or notes in your order if appearance matters.

Match material performance to the job: pick well-draining, compactable mixes for driveways and pathways, lighter, finer materials for leveling and planting beds, and coarser rock where erosion control or drainage is needed. Consider appearance, maintenance, and how the material will be finished (compacted, topped with pavers, planted over). If unsure, use Hello Gravel’s material quiz or contact our team for project-specific guidance.

Louisville's West Tennessee climate has hot, humid summers and periods of heavy rain, so drainage and washout resistance are common concerns. Choose materials that shed water and resist rutting in wet conditions, and account for local soil that can be clayey or sticky by using a stable base layer under top materials. Expect some regional variation in material composition due to local geology.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the depth you need, then convert to cubic yards: (length x width x depth in feet) ÷ 27. To convert to tons, material density varies, so use Hello Gravel’s material calculator for an accurate number—rough estimates are typically 1.2–1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material. When in doubt, order a little extra to account for compaction and grading.

Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel uses local supplier fleets and requires a minimum order (3 tons); availability and timing depend on your zip code and supplier schedules, so check your zip code at checkout. Provide clear access instructions and preferred delivery date to help ensure smooth service.

Yes. Delivery requires safe truck access and adequate turning and drop-off space; narrow roads, low-hanging wires, steep driveways, or soft ground can limit where trucks can dump. Note any site restrictions in Order Notes and our drivers will assess conditions on arrival; tailgate spreading may be possible at the driver’s discretion but is not guaranteed. You may need a short wheel loader or labor to move material after delivery if the truck cannot get close enough.

Possibly. Local city, county, and HOA rules can affect driveways, grading, stormwater control, and visible landscaping materials. Check with your city and county offices and your HOA before ordering if your project involves changes to driveways, drainage, or front-yard appearance. Hello Gravel can only deliver materials; securing permits or approvals is the customer's responsibility.

Plan around the wettest months and local construction seasons—avoid scheduling large deliveries during heavy rain or when ground is very soft to reduce tracking and sinkage. For spring landscaping and summer driveway work, order earlier to secure materials and truck availability. Use the checkout calendar to select a delivery date and contact our team if you need fast turnaround; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST with an added fee.

Regional sourcing means materials will reflect local geology, so color, grain size, and texture can vary from images or samples. These natural variations are normal and do not indicate poor quality. If color or consistency is important for your project, ask for photos or include preferences in Order Notes; we will pass them to the supplier when possible.

Choose DIY for small landscaping or simple spread-and-level jobs if you have the time, tools, and help to move and compact material. Hire a contractor for larger scopes, grading, drainage work, permits, or when specialized equipment and guaranteed finishes are required. Regardless of your choice, Hello Gravel can deliver the materials; tell us if delivery should coordinate with a contractor’s schedule.

Natural variation and regional sourcing can make materials look different than photos. Contact Hello Gravel customer service promptly with photos and a description so we can work with the supplier to resolve issues. Review our refund and resolution information on the order confirmation and have your delivery details and order number handy when you call.

Clear the delivery area of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles, and identify the desired drop point in Order Notes or on-site when the driver arrives. Ensure permit and HOA approvals are in place if needed, and confirm access for a tri-axle dump truck—soft or narrow access can require offloading at the curb or additional handling. If you need spreading, request tailgate spreading at checkout but expect the driver to assess safety and feasibility on arrival.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
