Yes!  We provide residential and jobsite direct delivery service up to 60 miles from our two locations in Wilmington and Dunn.

Delivery can be arranged outside of the 60-mile radius however, the cost of delivery significantly increases the further away the delivery is from our locations.

We offer delivery Monday through Friday from 8am – 5pm. Once you place your order, we will work with you to schedule the most convenient day and time for you. Oftentimes we can offer same day deliveries! 

While we cannot provide full spreading services, we may be able to perform a "tailgate spread" to distribute material more evenly upon delivery if it is deemed safe to do so per the driver's discretion. This spreading technique means that the truck will gradually distribute the material while driving, which will scatter material along the route versus dumping in one large pile. 

Yes! We welcome you to stop by our Wilmington or Dunn yards and pick up your own material, if you have the means of hauling it. We can fill the back of most pickups, trailers and dump trucks.

*Pelton Aggregates Company is not responsible for any damage our rocks may cause to your personal vehicle, work vehicle, trailer, or any property not belonging to us, during loading. Pelton will not be held liable for any bodily injury caused by fallen rocks, flying debris, or any damage that may be caused to an individual during the loading process. We ask that you please remain in your vehicle during this time. Children are not allowed on the yard. 

In general, 1 cubic yard = 1.35 US tons. However, this can depend on the exact size and classification of the stone. For example, a stone that is 2-4" in size will be heavier than one that is 3/4" in size. Composition and density have a huge effect on the weight to volume ratio.  Use our Gravel Calculator tab above or feel free to call us and we can help! 

Our gravel, crushed stone and other aggregates are recommended for driveways, drainage, landscaping, construction, and various other residential and commercial projects. Please

check each product description on our site for specific usage recommendations or feel free to call us.

There are no minimums except on bulk delivery orders, which require an order of 22+ tons.

We dispatch all orders using professional dump trucking fleets for safe and timely delivery. Drivers will determine the best location to dump depending on the landscape and moisture of soil. Dump trucks are heavy so we may not be able to drive on wet or unstable ground. 

If you have questions or issues with your order, please contact us at 910-232-5728.  

If you have received your order and are not satisfied, please call us.  If you wish to refuse the order, you must do so before it is unloaded. If you are not present at the time of delivery to refuse it, you will be responsible for the payment of the stone or aggregates, but you may receive a discount on the order or a future order. 

Orders should always be examined before dumping to ensure you know what product you are receiving.   We want to make things right so please offer us the opportunity for us to work towards a satisfactory solution.

 We accept all major credits cards with an additional 3% payment fee. We also accept cash.
