Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Prospect, TN

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who calculate delivery fees based on distance, access, and order size. In Prospect (primary zip 38477), many nearby deliveries are free but remote or long-haul drops may incur a fee; minimum orders generally start at 3 tons. Standard delivery takes 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Check your zip code at checkout for exact availability and fees.

West Tennessee sees heavy spring and summer rains and occasional freeze-thaw in winter, both of which can delay deliveries and affect installation. Schedule deliveries during dry windows for best results, and avoid working on saturated or frozen ground when possible. If your project is time-sensitive, choose the next-day option or plan buffer days to allow for weather-related delays.

For slope, drainage, and erosion issues, consider material properties like permeability, particle size distribution, and stability rather than one specific product. Many successful solutions combine different aggregates with landscape fabric, proper grading, and drainage structures. Because local geology varies, consult our sales team or a contractor to match material choices to site conditions in Prospect.

Small garden beds often require 1 to 3 cubic yards, pathways and patios typically need 3 to 10 cubic yards, and residential driveways commonly range from 20 to 120 cubic yards depending on length and depth. Use our online material calculator to get a more exact estimate for your dimensions, and remember our minimum order is 3 tons. Ordering slightly more than calculated helps account for compaction and grading waste.

Deliveries are usually made by tri-axle dump trucks; drivers will evaluate access on arrival and may refuse unsafe drops. Provide clear directions, gate codes, and parking info at checkout, and mark your preferred drop spot with stakes to avoid confusion. Additional services such as long carries, hand spreading, or smaller delivery trucks may be available for a fee or at the contractor's discretion.

Permit requirements vary by project type and location; driveway cuts, retaining walls, and significant grading often require city or county approval. Check with Prospect or your county building department and any homeowners association before you start. Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics but always recommend confirming permits and utility locates before ordering.

Clear the intended drop area of cars, toys, and landscaping, and remove low-hanging branches or other overhead obstructions. Mark the exact drop location with visible stakes or high-visibility tape and inform the driver of any site constraints when they arrive. Also confirm ground bearing capacity in soft or wet conditions and arrange for a smaller truck or longer carry if the normal dump truck cannot reach the spot.

Costs vary by material type, regional availability, delivery distance, and season, so per-ton and per-yard prices can fluctuate. The best way to get an accurate price is to use Hello Gravel's online quote tool or request a custom quote for your zip code. Our transparent pricing shows material and delivery charges so you can compare options for your project.

Lifespan depends on installation quality, local climate, and use; with proper installation and drainage, many aggregate-based surfaces last for years but will need periodic topping, grading, or compaction. Heavy rain and freeze-thaw cycles can cause settling or washouts, so plan for occasional maintenance and inspections after major storms. Regular upkeep, such as regrading low spots and adding material as needed, extends service life and reduces long-term costs.

Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel an order; changes are easier to accommodate before the order is dispatched. We will work with local suppliers and haulers to resolve timing or quality problems, and customer service can explain next steps and refund policies if applicable. Keep order notes and delivery details up to date to avoid delays and help drivers complete the job smoothly.

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.
