Do I need to be home for the play sand delivery?
Best if someone is there to show the driver the spot. Not required: ask for a photo of the drop.
Can the truck drop the play sand in my backyard?
Dumped from the street or driveway. A backyard works if the entrance is wide enough. Off the public road, you take responsibility for any damage.

October–May is the easier window: drier ground means cleaner spreading and better truck access. We deliver year-round; just avoid scheduling right after heavy summer rain if access is tight.
