Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Bellevue, WA

A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10-14 cubic yards (roughly 12-18 tons depending on the material). As a general guide, one cubic yard covers about 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth or about 100 sq ft at 3 inches depth, so a single truck will cover roughly 1,000-1,400 sq ft at 1 inch or about 300-500 sq ft at 3 inches. Actual coverage varies by material density and how deeply you want to lay it, so use our material calculator for a specific estimate.

For medium and large projects, bulk delivery is usually cheaper per unit because it reduces packaging and handling costs. For very small jobs, bagged materials can be more convenient despite higher per-unit cost. Always compare required quantity, delivery fee, and handling time when deciding.

Needed quantities depend on the area and desired depth. Use the rule that one cubic yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 inches depth; convert cubic yards to tons using our calculator because weight varies by material. If you prefer, contact our team with measurements and we can help estimate quantities for your project.

Consider the project purpose (drainage, stabilizing, planting, or decorative use), load requirements, desired appearance, and local climate. Bellevue's rainy conditions make drainage and compaction important, so materials that shed water or compact well are better for driveways and paths. Budget and maintenance needs also matter—our quiz and sales team can help match material types to your specific project.

Pricing and timing vary by zip code, supplier availability, and order size, but Hello Gravel provides transparent pricing at checkout and often offers free delivery in many areas. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout and will receive a confirmation with timing details.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, and you can request this service at checkout. Safety, truck access, and local conditions determine whether spreading is possible, so there are no guarantees. For precise spreading needs, plan to arrange a landscape crew or spreading equipment.

Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but changes depend on supplier and hauler schedules. If your delivery is already en route, options may be limited, so prompt contact improves the chance of a successful change.

Coverage per ton varies with material density, but a useful rule is that one cubic yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 inches depth and one cubic yard often weighs about 1.2–1.5 tons for denser materials. That means one ton will generally cover roughly 65–85 sq ft at 3 inches, depending on whether you are using gravel, sand, dirt, or stone. Use our calculator for material-specific estimates before ordering.

For small amounts, buying bagged soil from a local retailer or community yard offers convenience without a truck. For larger volumes, bulk delivery is typically more economical per cubic yard. Also consider mixing purchased compost with existing soil and checking local municipal or nonprofit sources for low-cost compost or soil donations.

Natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may differ from online photos due to local geology and recent production batches. We source regionally for Bellevue-area deliveries, so samples or order notes can help communicate preferences, but exact matches cannot be guaranteed. If the material looks significantly different from your expectations, contact customer service so we can help resolve the issue.

Yes. Bellevue's wet season affects site access, compaction, and erosion risk, so schedule deliveries during drier windows when possible for easier spreading and better results. Winter storms and high demand can also affect supplier availability and delivery timing. Plan ahead, especially for large projects, and use our scheduling options to pick a suitable date.

Match the material to function: well-draining mixes work for planting beds, compactable aggregates suit driveways, and looser materials may be best for decorative areas. Consider local soil, slope, and rainfall; in Bellevue you may need added drainage or geotextile underlay for sloped or high-traffic areas. Use our material guide and talk to our sales team to get recommendations that balance performance, appearance, and budget.

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.
