Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in South Side, TN

Homeowners and contractors in South Side commonly choose mixes of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, grading, drainage, and landscaping. These materials are versatile for base layers, top dressings, and erosion control, and local suppliers typically stock blends suited to West Tennessee soils and climate.

Start by describing the project's purpose—drainage, driveway base, planting beds, or erosion control—and pick a material that matches that function. Use the aggregate quiz or talk to our team for guidance, and consider regional factors in West Tennessee such as soil type and drainage needs when selecting from gravel, sand, dirt, and stone.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide on a target depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards and multiply by 1.35 to account for compaction and settling. If you prefer tons or need help, use our online calculator or contact our team with your dimensions and desired depth; we can recommend quantities for gravel, sand, dirt, and stone.

Spring through fall are popular for outdoor projects, but deliveries are available year-round in West Tennessee; wetter months may slow work and increase compaction, while cold snaps can affect spreading. Schedule deliveries with a few days' buffer and avoid placing material directly on frozen or muddy surfaces to reduce mess and handling issues.

Yes, many local suppliers and contracted haulers serve rural addresses around South Side, but delivery access can depend on road width, bridges, and site obstacles. Provide detailed delivery notes at checkout and call our team if you have narrow driveways, low-hanging wires, or long unpaved approaches so we can advise on drop location and truck suitability.

Standard deliveries are typically scheduled for 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Materials are delivered by local dump truck fleets (usually tri-axle), minimum orders start around 3 tons, and drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed.

Contact our team as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel; we will do our best to accommodate requests before the order is processed or dispatched. Changes are easier earlier in the workflow, but some adjustments may not be possible once a truck has been scheduled.

Permits are rarely needed for private residential deliveries, but local rules or HOA restrictions may apply for large commercial loads, road use, or temporary storage. Check with South Side or county authorities and your HOA if applicable, and let our team know about any special permit requirements so we can coordinate appropriately.

Coarser, well-draining aggregates in the gravel, sand, dirt, and stone group are better for improving surface drainage and reducing erosion, while finer dirt mixes can help with planting but may hold water. Often a combination—such as a coarse base with a finer top—gives the best balance of drainage, stability, and plant health depending on slope and soil conditions.

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.
