Materials you can order in Hamilton
Three materials are available for delivery here. Each one has its own page with specs, sizing help and the live price tool.
Pea Gravel
Small, smooth stone that drains well and feels good underfoot. People use Pea Gravel for walkways, patios, play areas and drainage trenches. Hamilton pea gravel is sold by the ton.
Premium Screened Topsoil
Screened to remove clods and debris, this is the soil for lawn repair, raised beds and grading low spots. Hamilton buyers can check the specs on Premium Screened Topsoil. Here in Hamilton it is sold by the ton.
Mulch
A fresh layer of Mulch keeps beds tidy, holds moisture and slows weeds around trees and shrubs. Mulch is the one product here sold by the cubic yard.
Gravel delivery in Hamilton, OH: how ordering works
Open the material you need and enter the ZIP where the load will be dropped. The page returns a delivered price for that address, so the number you see already covers the trip to your site. Bigger orders bring the cost per unit down, which makes it worth combining jobs when a neighbor or a second bed needs the same material.
Orders start at 2 units: 2 tons for topsoil, and 2 cubic yards for mulch. That is plenty for a typical walkway or a couple of beds, and measuring your area before you order saves a second trip.

Hamilton is part of the wider Cincinnati area, and the same delivery service reaches towns around it. Middletown is 7 miles away, Cincinnati is 20 miles, Covington, KY is 22 miles, Kettering is 30 miles and Dayton is 32 miles. If your job sits in one of those places, search for that city instead. You can also browse delivery across Ohio to see everywhere we operate in the state.
Placing the load on your property
Choose a spot before the truck arrives. Loose material is tipped from the truck bed, so you want a flat, clear patch of driveway or lawn edge with room overhead and no low wires or branches. Laying a tarp or sheet of plywood underneath protects pavement and makes cleanup easier. Keep pets and kids away while the truck backs in.
If the drop spot is far from where the material is going, plan on a wheelbarrow and an afternoon of moving it. Smaller beds near the house are usually easiest to feed straight from a pile at the curb or end of the drive.
Local conditions that affect a Hamilton job
If your yard has clay soil, water tends to sit after a hard rain. That is where pea gravel earns its keep, in drainage trenches and around downspouts. For lawns, spreading screened topsoil over loosened clay gives new seed something to root in. If your driveway is tight, measure its width before you pick a drop point.
Small yards and narrow side beds are common in town, and a couple of tons or yards goes a long way in them. Bring a shovel, a rake and a pair of gloves, and a weekend is usually enough to spread a delivery.
Spring and fall are the busy seasons for beds and seeding, so planning your order a little ahead of the weekend you want to work keeps your project moving.

How do I get a price for my address?
Open the material page, enter the ZIP where the load is going, and the delivered price appears right away. Because it is calculated per ZIP, two addresses on opposite sides of town can see slightly different numbers, so check the one you actually need.
What if my lot is steep or narrow?
Walk the route from the street to the spot where the material will be used. On a slope, ask for the pile to be placed on the most level ground you have, so it does not wash away. Plan on a wheelbarrow for the rest.
What should I do with extra material?
Cover it with a tarp so rain does not wash it away or soak it through. Leftover topsoil is handy for low spots and bare patches, mulch can top up beds next season, and pea gravel can fill a path edge or the gap around a downspout.
How should I prepare a spot before spreading topsoil?
Remove rocks, weeds and old dead grass, then loosen the surface with a rake or tiller so the new soil bonds with what is underneath. Spread the topsoil evenly, rake it smooth, and water it lightly before seeding so the seed stays in place.
How do I keep pea gravel from drifting into the lawn?
Set a border first. Steel or plastic edging, bricks or landscape timbers all hold the stone in place. Pea gravel is round and shifts underfoot, so a firm edge matters more than it does with a flat, angular stone, especially along a lawn or a sloped path.
Will pea gravel settle after I spread it?
A little, yes. Loose stone works down into the ground beneath it over the first few weeks, especially on bare soil. Laying landscape fabric under the gravel slows that down and also keeps weeds from pushing up through the walkway.
How deep should mulch go around trees and shrubs?
A layer a few inches thick is enough to hold moisture and slow weeds. Pull it back from trunks and stems so bark stays dry, and spread it out to the edge of the branches rather than piling it into a cone against the tree.
Can I order for a second property in another city?
Yes. Each order is placed for the address where the load will be left, so use the page for the city where that property sits. Orders for different locations are handled separately, which also keeps the delivered price specific to each address.
