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.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
Fill Dirt
Versatile, lower-grade soil commonly used for volume and elevation changes in various construction and landscaping projects. Great for leveling or grading ground, backfilling pools and filling ditches, and evening out low points or depressions on your property.
Red Shredded Mulch
Red shredded bark and wood from hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. Good for gardening and landscaping. Helps hold moisture, block weeds, and adds a bold, red pop to your outdoors.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.

Why Chester Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Chester is a small but active community of 750 residents situated within a broader West Texas metro region of 2.5+ million people. With a steady annual growth rate of 0.70% annually, construction and landscaping demand tends to be incremental and sustained rather than boom-driven; homeowners typically pursue gradual property improvements, replacements, and targeted upgrades rather than large-scale infill projects. Chester’s climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall—creates a mix of long, sun-drenched periods and occasional heavy rains, so local projects favor durable, weather-resistant materials, reliable drainage solutions, and soils or amendments that retain moisture without compacting. For homeowners that means a consistent need for a range of bulk materials—topsoil, sand, base material, mulch, and stone—sourced to match local geology and engineered to stand up to heat, UV exposure, and episodic runoff. Local soils and the regional weather pattern create specific performance requirements for aggregates and landscape supplies. Prolonged sun and high UV exposure accelerate breakdown of organics and can dry unprotected soils quickly, while periodic rainfall and runoff concentrate erosion risks; together these factors demand materials that balance permeability, compaction resistance, and durability. For homeowners, that means selecting materials with appropriate gradation and texture for drainage, choosing soil blends suited to local plant palettes, and timing deliveries to avoid extreme heat or wet conditions. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers who understand Chester’s conditions, offering quantity calculators, scheduling options, and expert guidance so you get materials matched to both your project goals and the local climate.Popular Projects in Chester This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Chester Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Chester.
Choose based on function, drainage, and appearance. For common choices like gravel, sand, dirt, stone, consider load requirements, how much drainage you need, and how it will look in your yard. Use our material calculator or contact our team to match a material to your project and site conditions.
Local climate and geology affect performance and appearance, so materials sourced in West Texas may look and behave differently than samples. For hot, dry summers, pick materials that resist washout and support drainage; for areas with flash rain, prioritize good drainage and compaction. We can advise on local suitability when you request a quote.
Measure length, width, and desired depth and multiply to get cubic yards, then convert to tons using our calculator or guidance. For simple planning: length x width x depth gives cubic feet, divide by 27 for cubic yards, and then use our online tool to estimate tons. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and it is easier to add more than to run short.
Cost depends on the type of material, quantity, distance from the supplier, and access complexity. Orders often include clear upfront pricing and many areas offer free delivery, but next-day delivery and difficult access can add fees. Get an exact quote through our site to see all costs for your address.
Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks, so check drive width, turning room, overhead wires, and ground firmness before scheduling. Rural roads, low bridges, or private lane restrictions may require alternate drop locations or permits. Send photos of your site or call our team so we can coordinate the appropriate truck and drop point.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed. Request the service at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility upon arrival. If spreading is critical, plan for a separate spreading crew or equipment.
Standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days for scheduling and no extra fee. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, subject to supplier and truck availability. You can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout.
Yes, contractors and large projects can request quotes for bulk pricing through our platform. We connect you with local suppliers who can provide competitive rates for larger volumes and recurring needs. Contact our sales team for tailored pricing and delivery planning.
Check local town or county rules for road weight limits, right-of-way use, and any required permits for heavy truck access. If you have an HOA, confirm any rules about visible material piles, driveway work, or site storage. Let us know about restrictions when you order so we can coordinate with the supplier and driver.
Natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may not exactly match photos; this is expected with local sourcing. Contact our customer service as soon as possible to request changes—we can often accommodate edits before dispatch but cannot guarantee changes once the truck is on its way. If there is an issue after delivery, report it promptly and we will work to resolve it per our policies.
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.
