Gravel, Sand & Bulk Material Delivery in Preston, WA

Consider how the area will be used, drainage needs, slope, and the look you want. For driveways pick a more compactable, load-bearing mix; for garden beds or pathways choose materials that support drainage and plant health. Regional sourcing means color and texture vary, so request local samples or use our material quiz and calculator to confirm fit.

Our minimum order is 3 tons, and final cost depends on material type, distance from the supplier, and truck access at the delivery site. Many areas have free or flat-rate delivery, but remote or hard-to-access sites can add fees; get an instant quote by checking your zip code. Contractors ordering large volumes may see lower per-ton pricing.

Wet, seasonal conditions increase the importance of drainage and erosion control when selecting materials. Choose mixes that shed water and resist washout, add edging and proper slope, and plan for occasional topping up after heavy rains. Consider timing installations during drier months to improve compaction and stability.

Suppliers usually serve Preston and surrounding zip codes in West Washington; common nearby zip codes include 98029, 98024, 98027, 98075 and others in the area. Availability depends on the local supplier network and truck routing, so enter your zip code on our site to confirm service and delivery options for your exact address.

Plan deliveries around the rainy season to avoid muddy sites and poor compaction, and schedule larger jobs well in advance during busy spring and summer months. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days and next-day service may be available if ordered by the cutoff; always confirm a preferred delivery date at checkout. Frozen ground or storm events can delay deliveries, so allow extra lead time in winter.

DIY can be cost-effective for small, simple jobs if you have the time and tools for grading and compaction; large or complex projects usually benefit from a contractor because of equipment, permits, and site prep. Compare materials-plus-rental costs to contractor bids and consider safety and long-term performance when deciding. Our team can help estimate material needs whether you DIY or hire a pro.

Local permits and HOA rules vary; some projects affecting drainage, road access, or large changes to driveways and front yards may require permits or HOA approval. Check with King County or the City planning office and your HOA before ordering materials to avoid delays. If you’re unsure, our customer team can point you to common local resources to check.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide the required depth, then multiply to get cubic feet and convert to cubic yards (divide by 27). Use the material calculator on our site or send measurements to our team for an estimate in tons, since different materials have different densities. Always add 5-10% for compaction and waste, especially on slopes or uneven ground.

Lifespan depends on use, drainage, and maintenance; paths and low-traffic areas may only need topping up every 2-5 years, while driveways under heavy vehicles may need more frequent replenishing. Regular grading, occasional compaction, and managing runoff will extend any material's life. For high-traffic or flood-prone spots consider stabilization methods or edging to reduce displacement.

Standard deliveries are scheduled for 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed by the cutoff (see checkout for details). Same-day delivery is occasionally possible but depends on local supplier and truck availability, load size, and lead time—contact our team early to check options. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed.

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

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.
