Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Millington, TN

Choose materials based on use, appearance, and drainage needs. For vehicle areas pick materials that compact well and shed water; for walkways choose smoother, stable mixes; for planting beds choose lighter materials that improve root growth. Consider the group of gravel, sand, dirt, stone for base, surface, and grading layers depending on the job.

Millington in West Tennessee has mild winters but occasional freezes and heavy rain events, so freeze/thaw can affect surfaces over time. Good drainage and a stable, compacted base reduce heaving and rutting, while avoiding fine, clay-rich top layers helps prevent puddling. Plan major installations in moderate weather and allow time for proper compaction and settling.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the required depth, then convert to cubic yards (area x depth / 27) and use our calculator for accuracy. As a rough guide, many aggregates weigh about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material and moisture, so convert to tons if needed. Use the online material calculator or contact our team for a quick estimate.

Parts of West Tennessee can have clay and poorly draining soils that hold water and cause erosion on slopes. For sites with drainage issues, prioritize materials and solutions that improve runoff control, such as graded base layers, geotextile fabric, and proper slope and swales. Choosing materials that allow water to pass through or installing drainage features will extend the life of your surface.

Most orders have a minimum of about 3 tons and are delivered by tri-axle dump trucks; availability and minimums vary by supplier and location so check your zip code. Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this cannot be guaranteed.

Permit requirements and HOA rules vary, so check with the City of Millington, Shelby County, and any homeowner association before starting work. Permits are commonly required for new curb cuts, significant driveway changes, or altered drainage patterns, and some HOAs have material and appearance rules. Confirming rules first helps avoid delays or extra costs after delivery.

Look for consistent material quality, clear pricing, reliable delivery windows, and good local reviews or references from contractors. Regional sourcing matters, so a supplier familiar with West Tennessee materials and site conditions can be helpful. Online ordering, transparent fees, and easy communication make the process smoother for both homeowners and contractors.

Small garden beds or topdressing often need less than 1 cubic yard, while a narrow walkway commonly requires 1 to 3 tons. A standard two-car driveway can range from about 8 to 20 tons depending on width, length, and depth of base and surface layers. These are estimates; use a calculator or contact our team for a project-specific quantity.

Clear the delivery path of vehicles, low branches, and other obstructions and choose a firm, level drop location for the truck. Mark the exact drop spot with flags or stakes, protect sensitive landscaping, and let the driver know of any access limitations when you place the order. If curb or street parking is needed, check local rules or arrange permits before delivery.

Natural materials vary by region so color, texture, and sizing may differ from photos; check product notes and add preferences in Order Notes at checkout.
