Why Lucas Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lucas is a growing community with a city population of 7,260 and sits within a broader metro area of 7.5+ million — a pattern of growth that is driving steady construction and landscaping demand. At a documented growth rate of 3.30% annually, homeowners are seeing more renovations, new builds, and yard projects as the area expands. Local climate and geography — hardiness zone 8a, about 220 sunny days per year, and annual rainfall of 39.00 inches — mean materials must balance sun exposure, periodic heavy rain, and warm-season plant choices. That translates into a need for reliable bulk supplies: well-graded soils and sand for foundations and grading, stable aggregates for driveways and drainage, and organic materials to support plantings. For Lucas homeowners, predictable access to a range of materials helps keep projects on schedule and prevents costly rework when local conditions expose material weaknesses.Popular Projects in Lucas This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lucas Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lucas.
Customers in Lucas commonly order gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, patios, drainage work, and garden beds. Homeowners tend to prioritize appearance and easy maintenance, while contractors request larger volumes for structural bases and grading. Local suppliers stock materials that reflect regional geology, so texture and color may vary.
Start by identifying the project goal: load-bearing base, drainage, erosion control, or decorative surfacing. Consider drainage needs, expected traffic, desired appearance, and maintenance level; for steep or wet spots choose coarser, well-draining mixes and for decorative areas choose smoother, compactable blends. Use our material quiz or contact our sales team for guidance tailored to your site conditions.
Lucas has hot summers and occasional heavy rain, which can cause dusting, settling, or washout if materials and installation do not address drainage. Proper base preparation, compaction, and grading toward drains will reduce problems during storms, and adding a stabilizing layer can help with settling from heat and traffic. Schedule work outside of heavy rain periods when possible to allow materials to set properly.
Consider existing soil type, slope, and runoff: heavy clay soils hold water and increase washout risk, while slopes increase erosion potential. For sloped or poor-draining sites choose materials and installation methods that promote drainage and resist movement, such as angular aggregates with geotextile fabric and edging. A local contractor can evaluate your site and recommend the best combination of material and preparation.
Contractors measure the area (length x width) and decide a compacted depth for the layer, then convert to cubic yards and to tons using material-specific density. A common practice is to add 5-10% extra for waste, compaction, and grading. You can use our online calculator or provide dimensions to our team for a quick estimate.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and generally offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries are made by local dump truck fleets (typically tri-axle) and exact delivery radius and fees depend on local suppliers, which often serve customers within roughly 20-50 miles of Lucas. Request a preferred delivery date at checkout and include site access notes to help drivers.
Drivers may be able to perform limited tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on access and safety on arrival. If you need full spreading or installation, ask about local contractors or installation partners when you order, or arrange a crew separately. Be sure to note any spreading requests in the Order Notes at checkout.
Avoid periods of heavy rain to reduce the risk of washout and delivery delays; spring and fall are often the easiest seasons for reliable weather. Summers are workable but plan for early-morning deliveries to avoid extreme heat and allow crews to finish before high temperatures. Book earlier in the season for larger projects to secure preferred delivery dates.
Requirements vary: some projects may need city permits, curb-cut approvals, or HOA sign-off for visible driveway or front-yard changes. Check with the City of Lucas planning or building department and with your HOA before starting work to confirm setbacks, permitted materials, and stormwater requirements. If you are unsure, our team can help point you to local resources.
Compare not only initial price but coverage per ton, maintenance needs, drainage performance, and expected lifespan for your specific use. Materials that drain well typically need less long-term maintenance but may cost more upfront; decorative materials prioritize appearance and may require periodic replenishment. Talk through your priorities with our team to balance cost and performance for your project.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, color and texture can vary from photos or samples; natural variation is normal. If you have concerns, contact customer service promptly with photos and order details so we can work with the supplier to resolve the issue. Refer to our online policy for next steps and available remedies.
Contact our customer team as soon as possible with your order number; changes are easier to make before the order is dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications or cancellations, but ability to change depends on processing and dispatch status. Include clear instructions and site notes when you reorder to avoid repeat changes.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
