Sand in Hastings
Sand comes in different grades, and the one you pick changes how it drains and compacts. Hastings gets about 54 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage is critical for any sand project. The wrong grade can wash out or settle unevenly.
Gravel Monkey delivers several types of sand to Hastings, each suited to a specific use. The table below shows the products available.

The most popular product for Hastings homeowners is masonry sand, used for mortar and paver joints. But other options serve different purposes.

| Washed Sand | Concrete work and clean fill | Rinsed free of fines for stable mixes. |
| Playground Sand | Play areas and sandboxes | Clean, soft texture safe for children. |

Local Conditions That Affect Sand Use in Hastings
Soils mapped in the Hastings area are commonly poorly drained. That means more base stone under the surface layer. The ground around Hastings is in dual hydrologic group A/D. Where it is drained, water soaks in quickly; where it is not, most rain runs off. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
Hastings sees about 77 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Schedule deliveries onto firm ground to avoid ruts. Only about 4 days a year drop below freezing, so the ground does not heave much. The work window is wide open. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sand in Hastings
How many wet days a year should I plan a sand delivery around in Hastings?
Plan around the 77 days each year that bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. These wet days can make the ground soft and rut easily. Schedule your delivery for a dry spell or have a firm access route ready.
Does the ground in Hastings freeze hard enough to change when I should order?
No. Hastings sees only about 4 days a year below freezing, so the ground does not heave or freeze deeply. You can order and work most of the winter without major delay.
What size sand should I choose?
The size depends on your project. Fine sand like masonry sand works for mortar and paver joints. Washed sand is better for concrete and fill. Playground sand is screened for softness in play areas.
Is there a discount on a first order?
Yes. Use the code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to get $50 off your first order. The code applies to qualifying deliveries.
