Introduction

Sometimes landscaping projects can’t wait. Whether you underestimated how much gravel your driveway needed, a contractor’s jobsite ran short, or you’re trying to beat an HOA deadline, same-day delivery can be a lifesaver. But how does it actually work in Arizona? Here’s everything you need to know about ordering and receiving rock, gravel, DG, or dirt the same day.


What Qualifies as Same-Day Delivery?

Same-day delivery means rock is loaded and delivered to your property within hours of placing the order — usually if the order is placed before 10 AM. Availability depends on:

  • Truck scheduling

  • Material stock at the nearest quarry or yard

  • Distance from the delivery location


Where is Same-Day Delivery Available?

Arizona Landscape Rock offers same-day service throughout the Phoenix metro area and surrounding cities, including:

  • Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe

  • Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Goodyear, Avondale

  • Queen Creek, Apache Junction, Casa Grande

Outside the metro? Delivery may still be possible the same day, but is usually scheduled for next-day service.


How to Schedule a Same-Day Delivery

  1. Call or request a quote online before 10:00 a.m.

  2. Provide details: material type, tonnage, and delivery address.

  3. Confirm with dispatch — we’ll assign the nearest truck.

  4. Delivery typically arrives within 2–6 hours, depending on location.


Pricing for Same-Day Rock Delivery

  • Standard delivery fees: $75 – $150 per load (within metro)

  • Same-day surcharge: + $25 – $50 (Waived in 2025)

  • Long-distance same-day (outside 50 miles): quoted individually

💡 Tip: Ordering a full truckload keeps your per-ton delivery cost lower.


Tips for a Smooth Same-Day Drop

  • Make sure access is clear for a large truck.

  • Mark the dump location if you won’t be home.

  • Confirm phone number so the driver can reach you.

  • Order before noon to guarantee availability.


Why Choose Arizona Landscape Rock for Same-Day Delivery?

  • Owner-operated: direct communication, no middlemen.

  • Contractor-focused: bulk discounts and multi-site options.

  • Transparent pricing — no surprise delivery fees.

  • Coverage across 150-mile radius of Phoenix (statewide on request).
