Sand ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Mississippi address and unloads right where you point.
When you are mixing mortar for brickwork or laying a leveling course for pavers, the sand you choose matters. Mason Sand gives you a fine, clean aggregate for joints and trowel work, while Washed Sand provides a gap-graded material for concrete mixes and utility bedding. For play areas and sandboxes, Playground Sand meets the safety standards for children's use.
Gravel Monkey delivers sand across Mississippi by the ton. You order online, choose a delivery window, and a dump truck brings the material to your address. No need to visit a yard or rent a trailer.
Sand serves as both a base material and a finish layer. The table below matches each sand product to its typical use.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Mason Sand | Mortar, paver joints, fine leveling | Flows easily into tight joints and compacts well under pavers. |
| Washed Sand | Concrete work and clean fill | Washed free of fines, ideal for structural mixes and drainage layers. |
| Playground Sand | Play areas and sandboxes | Screened to remove stones and dust, safe for children's play. |
For each project we suggest a budget option and a long-term option. Use the depth recommendations as a starting point for tonnage estimates.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sandbox or play area | Playground Sand | 6 inches deep for safe play surface. |
| Mortar and masonry | Mason Sand | Fineness for thin joints; 1 inch bed. |
| Paver leveling course | Washed Sand | 1 inch compacted; provides even support. |
| Pipe bedding | Washed Sand | 4 to 6 inches around pipe for cushion and drainage. |
| Pool base | Mason Sand | 2 inches smooth base under liner. |
Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in Mississippi runs from about 57 to 67 inches. That means sand bases need good drainage, especially in low-lying areas where water can pool.
Freezing days range from 16 to 72 days per year, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the negligible band for ground freezing, so deep frost protection is not needed.
Hydrologic groups C and B are the most common in the served cities. These soils affect how water moves through the ground, so base depth guidance should account for local drainage. Frost is not the constraint here, so the calendar is driven by rain and by how wet the ground is.
We deliver sand to addresses across Mississippi. Here are the cities we serve:

Seasonal road restrictions are not a major factor for deliveries in Mississippi. However, the state's annual rainfall of 57 to 67 inches can make some rural roads soft after heavy storms. Our haulers adjust routes as needed, and we will notify you of any delays due to weather.
The two main conditions are rainfall and soil type. With 57 to 67 inches of rain per year, sand with good drainage is important. The dominant hydrologic soil groups are C and B, which means water moves at moderate to slow rates. This can affect base depth for patios and driveways. Freezing days range from 16 to 72, so frost heave is minimal but not zero in northern areas.

Sand is sold by the ton. One ton covers roughly 100 square feet at 2 inches deep, but exact coverage depends on moisture and compaction. Use our sand calculator to estimate your needs.
