Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Central Valley, WA

Price depends on the material you choose, the volume, and the delivery distance from local suppliers. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing once you enter your zip code (99181) and order details; most areas have a minimum order of about 3 tons. For an accurate cost, use the online quote tool or contact our team for a delivery estimate.

A typical tri-axle dump truck used for deliveries often carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards loose (roughly 12 to 16 tons depending on the material). Weight and cubic yards vary by material type and moisture content, so pricing for a full truckload depends on both volume and weight. Ask for a truckload quote when ordering large volumes to see bulk pricing and possible delivery discounts.

Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway surface; most driveways need a compacted base (3 to 6 inches) plus a 2 to 3 inch surface layer depending on the material. To calculate how much to order: measure length x width x depth in inches, then divide by 324 to get cubic yards (for example, a 20x10 ft area at 3 inches needs about 1.85 cubic yards). In West Washington's wet climate, plan for extra depth and good drainage to avoid rutting and settling.

Different materials are sold by cubic yard or by ton depending on regional practice and the product (mulch and compost are often sold by the cubic yard, while heavier aggregates may be quoted by the ton). Delivery fees vary by supplier and distance; Hello Gravel provides up-front pricing and shows delivery options after you enter your zip code. Check the product page for unit pricing and use the material calculator to convert between cubic yards and tons.

For larger projects, bulk mulch is typically cheaper per cubic yard than bagged mulch and is faster to install, but you need space for truck access and a place to stockpile. Pallets of bagged material can be convenient for small jobs or tight sites, and some suppliers will deliver pallets for a fee. Compare the per-yard cost plus delivery and handling to decide which option fits your project and site access.

Hello Gravel connects you to local compost suppliers that serve both homeowners and contractors in the Central Valley area. Compost is commonly sold by the cubic yard or ton and delivery options include standard scheduled drop-offs or faster options for an extra fee. Use our site to check availability for zip codes served and request a delivery quote based on your address and needed quantity.

Value depends on the job: dirt is the most cost-effective for bulk fill, sand works well for leveling and base mixes, and crushed stone or gravel provides long-lasting driveways and drainage. Choosing the right material for function (drainage, compaction, finish) usually saves money versus buying the cheapest option. Use our material quiz and talk to the sales team to match function to cost and get bulk pricing for large orders.

Many local suppliers serve both homeowners and contractors, but some wholesale yards focus on trade accounts. Hello Gravel partners with suppliers that commonly accept homeowner orders and handle delivery logistics. Enter your zip code to see available suppliers and ask the sales team if a supplier has any minimums or special requirements for residential deliveries.

A common guideline is about 2 to 3 inches for most planting beds; a 3-inch depth helps suppress weeds and retain moisture while allowing air and water to reach roots. To calculate quantity in cubic yards, multiply area in square feet by desired depth in inches and divide by 324 (for example, 500 sq ft at 3 inches = about 4.6 cubic yards). Consider local planting needs and seasonal maintenance, and order a little extra to allow for settling.

Compost suppliers typically refuse contaminants like plastics, glass, metals, treated wood, diapers, and large amounts of non-biodegradable waste. Acceptance of food waste, pet waste, and large woody debris varies by facility, so check with the supplier before scheduling delivery. If you need material for a garden, ask the supplier for the compost type and any usage guidelines.

Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle); drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed. Before delivery, ensure the truck can access your site, check for overhead lines and turnaround space, and note any parking or permit requirements in your order notes.

Contact our customer service team as soon as possible with order details so we can try to adjust the order before it is processed and dispatched. We will work to resolve issues and direct you to the refund or return policy if needed, but changes are easier before the truck leaves the yard. Keep photos and delivery notes handy when reporting problems to speed up resolution.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
