FAQ

What's cheaper: many small orders or one big delivery?

One big delivery wins — the material costs the same per yard, but every load carries its own delivery fee. Three separate 2-yard orders pay three delivery fees; one 6-yard order pays a single fee for the identical stone. Delivery is a flat $100 per load within 30 driving miles of our Dispatch Office in Dorchester, plus $4 per mile beyond, so every load you avoid is real money kept.

The fee math

Approach Delivery fees paid
Three 2-yard orders Three separate fees
One 6-yard load One fee

Load caps set the ceiling — 10 cubic yards for mulch, 6 for stone, sand, or soil — so most projects fit one truck if you plan them whole. Measure everything first with the material calculator, then order once; fee details are on the delivery page.
