I need about a cubic yard of sand and probably 2 cubic yds of pea gravel to finish a home improvement project in my backyard. I have a truck but the material would need to go into my backyard with only a side gate access (no vehicle).

Any recs on the best / cheapest place in the Metairie area to get this? If they offer help with delivery getting the materials to my backyard, even better.

Usually can find a coupon. They aren't bringing it to your backyard though.

I learned the hard way. The trucks wheels will sink into your yard so deep it’s not even funny. Don’t let them drive on the grass with that kind of weight.

If you need someone to bring it to your yard, you're better off going through a landscaping company and having them coordinate with a delivery service. Cannot give recs on this as I did it myself.
