Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Centreville, VA

Costs vary by material, quantity, and delivery distance, but homeowners in Centreville can generally expect material prices plus delivery to range widely. As a rough guide, material alone often ranges from modest to mid-range per ton or cubic yard depending on type, and delivery fees commonly add a one-time charge that depends on haul distance and truck size.

Spring through early fall is usually the easiest time for deliveries in Centreville because ground conditions are drier and weather is more predictable. Avoid scheduling large deliveries during heavy rain, saturated ground, or freeze-thaw periods to reduce the risk of rutting and spreading issues. If you need winter service, plan ahead and expect possible scheduling constraints.

A simple material delivery to a residential property often does not require a delivery permit, but any driveway changes, new grading, large fill, curb cuts, or work in the public right-of-way may require permits from Fairfax County or VDOT. Check with Fairfax County zoning and public works before major grading or road access work, and get required permits before scheduling delivery if your project affects the street or drainage. When in doubt, contact our support team and we can point you to local resources.

Material performance depends on type, installation, and local conditions; Centreville sees hot, humid summers and occasional freeze-thaw cycles in winter, so drainage and compaction matter. Well-drained materials and proper base preparation resist rutting and frost heave better, while fine materials can wash or compact in heavy rain. Choose materials and installation methods suited to the load and weather, and ask our team for recommendations based on local performance.

Coverage depends on material density and depth, but a useful rule of thumb is that 1 cubic yard equals about 1.2–1.6 tons for many aggregates; exact numbers vary by material. For thin top layers, 1 ton often covers roughly 80–100 square feet at 1 inch of depth; driveways and base layers typically require several inches of material, so a small driveway can easily need multiple tons. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator for precise estimates and call our team for project-specific guidance.

Standard delivery is typically available in 2 or more business days, with next-day delivery offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Minimum order size is 3 tons, and deliveries are made by professional trucking companies using dump trucks (often tri-axle). Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but spreading is not guaranteed.

Start by matching material properties to your project goals: load-bearing needs, drainage, appearance, and maintenance. For example, choose well-draining, angular materials for driveways and compacted base, and finer, softer materials where comfort or planting is a priority; consider local climate effects like heavy summer rain and freeze-thaw cycles. Use our aggregate quiz and talk to our sales team for tailored recommendations based on your site and budget.

Clear an accessible drop-off area, mark any preferred placement locations, and note overhead wires or tight turns before delivery day to help the driver plan. Protect lawn areas if you want material dumped on grass, and provide a phone contact so the driver can reach you on arrival. If access is limited or special placement is needed, mention it in Order Notes and call our team in advance to discuss options.

Because we source regionally, color and texture can vary from photos, and natural variation is normal; if the material does not meet expectations, contact customer service promptly so we can review options. Order changes are easiest before the supplier and truck are dispatched, so call as soon as possible; we will do our best to accommodate requests but cannot guarantee changes after dispatch. See our order and issue policies for details and next steps.

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.
