Sand ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Sheridan address and unloads right where you point.
Order your sand by the ton online and get it delivered to your Sheridan address by dump truck. Gravel Monkey handles the logistics so you can focus on the job. Sheridan gets about 48 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning essential for any sand installation.
Whether you are filling a sandbox or bedding pipe, the right sand starts with the right order. Choose your product, pick your delivery date, and the truck shows up.
Choosing the right sand means knowing what each product will and will not do. Below is a quick guide.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Mason Sand | Mortar, paver joints, fine leveling | Not for concrete; too many fines. |
| Washed Sand | Concrete work and clean fill | Not for masonry; lacks fines. |
| Playground Sand | Play areas and sandboxes | Rounded grains; not for construction. |
Each project calls for a specific sand. Match your surface to the material.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sandbox or play area | Playground Sand | Use the sand calculator to estimate volume. |
| Pool base | Washed Sand | Even layer; calculator helps with tonnage. |
| Paver leveling course | Mason Sand | Screen to thickness; use calculator. |
| Pipe bedding | Washed Sand | No organics; depth per spec. |
| Mortar and masonry | Mason Sand | Fine grains; quantity varies. |
Sheridan sees about 49 days a year below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift an unstable base, so proper compaction matters.
Only about 2 inches of snow annually means plowing is rare but can damage a loose surface. A compacted layer holds up better.
Soils in the Sheridan area are commonly poorly drained, so more base stone may be needed under sand to prevent pooling.
Ground around Sheridan is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Drainage and deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Sand is sold by the ton. Measure the length, width, and desired depth of your area. Use our sand calculator to convert those dimensions to tons, accounting for compaction and moisture.
Order by the ton on our website. Choose a delivery date at least 3 business days after the order date, and pick a window: morning (7 am to 12 pm) or afternoon (12 pm to 5 pm). Provide a valid phone number. You get an email confirmation, then a second email with the scheduled window and a photo of the material. Delivery proceeds after you approve that second email. You or a nominee must be on site during the window. The site needs a road width of at least 12 feet. See our delivery information page for policies.

Pair sand with these materials for a complete job:

Yes, with about 113 wet days a year, drainage is important. Choose a sand that drains well and plan for a base that keeps water away from the surface layer.
Yes, you or someone you nominate must be at the site during the delivery window. If no one is there, a redelivery fee may apply and the order is not refunded.
