Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Compost
Premium compost packed with organic nutrients—perfect for revitalizing tired soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth. Ideal for mixing into garden beds, raised beds, and landscapes needing a natural boost.
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.

Why Castle Hills Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Castle Hills is a growing community with a city population of 58,330, and its steady growth rate of 0.70% annually points to consistent demand for both small homeowner projects and incremental construction activity. That steady expansion—rather than a boom—means homeowners often prioritize practical upgrades like durable driveways, water-wise yard renovations, and reliable grading work. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall in a hardiness zone of 8b, local climate and geography create a need for materials that balance durability and drainage. Homeowners benefit from a range of bulk supplies—gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and stone—chosen to manage runoff, reduce dust, and hold up to sun exposure while supporting drought-tolerant planting and low-maintenance hardscapes. Local soil types and the combination of abundant sun and moderate rainfall shape how materials perform over time. Soils that compact under heavy equipment can affect settling and drainage, while frequent sun exposure accelerates color fade and breakdown in organic products. For homeowners, that means selecting materials with the right texture, gradation, and stability for surface grading, erosion control, and plant beds. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with locally sourced materials and suppliers who understand Castle Hills conditions, offering guidance on quantities, delivery timing, and product options so you can choose materials that perform reliably in this climate.Popular Projects in Castle Hills This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Castle Hills Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Castle Hills.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers who commonly set a minimum order around 3 tons. Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days and may be free in many areas, but fees and minimums can vary by supplier and delivery distance. Enter your zip code at checkout or contact our team for a delivery estimate and any extra charges for remote addresses.
Choose materials based on the project needs rather than one 'best' product: think about drainage, compaction, and heat tolerance. For example, base layers that compact well and top layers that shed water are common choices; gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar aggregates each play different roles. Use our material calculator or talk to our sales team to pick materials that balance appearance, durability, and local climate performance.
Castle Hills sees hot summers and occasional heavy rains, so plan deliveries and installations for cooler parts of the day or seasons and after a dry spell. Wet ground can make spreading and compaction harder, while intense heat can affect handling and settling times. Schedule deliveries with a buffer for weather, and consult our delivery calendar when choosing a date.
Yes. Many city building codes and homeowner associations set limits on material color, size, edging, and driveway changes that can affect what you can use. Always check Castle Hills city codes and your HOA rules before ordering; Hello Gravel can help with material options but cannot confirm compliance for you.
Delivery radius and extra charges depend on the local supplier and hauler. Most suppliers cover Castle Hills and nearby areas, but more remote or hard-to-access addresses may have additional fees or minimums. Enter your address at checkout or contact our team to confirm availability and any surcharges.
Prices vary by local supply, quarry distance, and trucking costs, so Castle Hills rates can differ from nearby towns. Regional sourcing usually keeps prices competitive, but the best way to compare is to request a quote for your specific material and delivery location. We provide transparent pricing estimates at checkout so you can compare options easily.
Typical quantities depend on area and depth: small garden beds often use 1 to 3 cubic yards, pathways 1 to 5 cubic yards, and driveway resurfacing can range from 5 to 30+ cubic yards depending on size and depth. As a rule of thumb, use our online calculator or ask our team with your project dimensions to get a precise yardage or tonnage estimate. Remember that 1 cubic yard converts roughly to about 1.3 tons, but local material density can vary.
Key properties are drainage, compaction ability, particle size, and erosion resistance; in West Texas, heat tolerance and UV stability are also useful for surface aggregates. Selecting a stable base and using materials that lock together or compact well reduces movement and rutting. Ask about local recommendations to match materials to soil type and slope for best long-term performance.
Offerings vary by supplier: Hello Gravel primarily coordinates material delivery, but many local suppliers or partner contractors also offer installation, spreading, and compaction services. Check the supplier details at checkout or call our team to see if installation options are available in your area. If tailgate spreading is requested, drivers may perform it at their discretion but there are no guarantees.
Policies differ by supplier: natural materials reflect regional geology and may vary in color and texture, so exact matches are not guaranteed. Contact customer service promptly if a material is significantly different than expected; Hello Gravel will work with the supplier to resolve issues according to our refund and returns guidelines. Review the supplier terms at checkout for specific return rules.
Start by defining the project's purpose: load-bearing surfaces need strong, compacting materials while decorative beds prioritize appearance and drainage. Consider site slope, existing soil, and maintenance needs, then use our material quiz or talk to sales for tailored recommendations. We can help estimate quantities and suggest combinations of base and surface materials for best results.
You can choose a delivery date at checkout; standard deliveries generally require 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Contact our support team as soon as possible to request changes or cancellations; we will do our best to accommodate requests before orders are dispatched but cannot guarantee changes once processing and trucking are in motion.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
