Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Millwood, WA

Choose materials based on use, appearance, and maintenance needs. For paths and driveways, pick materials that compact well and provide drainage; for planting areas or decorative beds, choose materials that control weeds and match your desired look. Consider gravel, sand, dirt, stone as a group when comparing texture, color, and longevity, and ask our team for help matching options to your project.

Millwood's wet, mild climate increases the importance of drainage and erosion resistance. Materials that shed water, compact well, and resist washout perform better; expect higher maintenance for fine or loose materials after heavy rain. Plan for edging, proper base layers, and occasional replenishment to keep surfaces stable.

Start with the project's function: heavy vehicle traffic needs durable, well-compacted material and a stable base, while footpaths can use softer or decorative materials. Factor in aesthetics, maintenance frequency, and drainage needs in Millwood's climate. If you are unsure, order small test quantities or consult our material quiz and sales team for recommendations.

Late spring through early fall is generally best for deliveries and installation because ground conditions are drier and crews are more available. Winter and very wet periods can make delivery and spreading harder and increase the risk of rutting. If you need materials in the off-season, plan for possible delays and discuss staging and access with suppliers ahead of time.

Delivery costs vary by distance, load size, and access, and Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons. Standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, with a next-day option for earlier cutoff times and an additional fee.

Measure the area (length x width) and estimate depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards or tons using our online calculator or guidelines. For common projects, 2-3 inches of top dressing uses less material than a full 4-6 inch base; always allow a small overage for compaction and spreading. Contact our team if you want a quick estimate for your project size.

Permit and HOA rules vary by property, so check Millwood city codes and your HOA documents before starting. Small landscaping projects often don't need a permit, but structural changes to driveways, large grading, or stormwater alterations might. When in doubt, contact the city or your HOA and plan accordingly before ordering materials.

Suppliers consider driveway width, overhead clearance, street parking restrictions, and turnaround space when scheduling deliveries. Truck size is typically tri-axle dump trucks, so narrow or steep access may require smaller trucks or offload planning. Note access details in Order Notes and our team will coordinate with the hauler to reduce disruptions.

Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if it is safe and practical for the site, but this service is not guaranteed. Request spreading at checkout and be prepared for the driver to assess on arrival. If spreading is essential, consider hiring a local contractor or arranging separate spreading services.

Materials that compact well, resist washout, and allow good drainage typically require less upkeep in West Washington's terrain. Larger, angular aggregates or properly installed base layers tend to stay in place better than fine, loose materials. Even low-maintenance choices need occasional topping up and edge maintenance in wet climates.

Cubic yards measure volume while tons measure weight, and conversion depends on the material's density and moisture content. Use our online calculator to convert between tons and cubic yards for common aggregates, or ask our team to calculate based on local material types. When ordering, round up slightly to account for compaction and site losses.

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.
