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.

Why Fairfield Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fairfield's city population is 6,470, and its steady 0.70% annual growth points to consistent, ongoing demand for home improvements and modest new construction rather than a fast boom. The broader metro area population of 2.5+ million supports a regional market of contractors and supply chains that homeowners tap for larger projects. Located in hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.80 inches, Fairfield’s climate favors heat-tolerant plantings and outdoor living spaces but also calls for materials that handle strong sun exposure and intermittent rainfall. That mix increases need for a range of bulk supplies — bases, aggregates, topsoil, sand, and mulch — that balance permeability, UV stability, and structural performance for patios, driveways, drainage features, and low-maintenance landscaping. Fairfield’s combination of frequent sunshine and moderate annual precipitation creates practical challenges for material selection and installation. Strong sun accelerates color fading and breakdown of organic finishes while seasonal rains demand effective grading and permeable layers to manage runoff. Local soil and geology affect compaction, settling, and drainage, so regionally sourced materials and proper sub-base preparation reduce erosion and maintenance down the line. Hello Gravel helps homeowners navigate these local trade-offs by connecting them with nearby suppliers, offering quantity calculators, and coordinating delivery timing to match project schedules and weather considerations.Popular Projects in Fairfield This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fairfield Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fairfield.
It depends on your goals for drainage, durability, and maintenance. When choosing between gravel, sand, dirt, stone, look for a material that compacts well for a driving surface, provides good drainage, and matches your desired appearance; typical driveway builds use a compacted base layer and a top layer placed at 3 to 6 inches. Local suppliers provide regionally sourced options that reflect West Texas conditions, so ask about examples used on nearby driveways before ordering.
Delivery costs vary based on the amount you order, the material type, and how far the supplier must travel from the yard to your address. Hello Gravel lists upfront pricing and shows delivery fees during checkout; expect factors like rural access, truck unloading difficulty, and next-day delivery requests to increase the price. For an exact cost, enter your zip code and project details on the site to get a quote.
In hot, dry climates choose materials that resist breakdown, retain shape under traffic, and allow proper drainage. When comparing gravel, sand, dirt, stone, prioritize angular, well-graded materials for structural uses and lighter-colored options for landscape areas to reduce heat absorption. Also consider erosion control and drainage planning because drought conditions can make loose soils more prone to wind displacement.
Spring and fall offer the most forgiving weather for most installations because the ground is workable and temperatures are moderate. Avoid very wet periods and schedule deliveries early in the day during hot summer months to reduce heat-related work issues. For contractor projects or larger jobs, book materials at least a week in advance since scheduling and truck availability can fluctuate.
Many local suppliers and haulers serve rural addresses, but availability depends on access, road conditions, and the supplier’s service area. Confirm your zip code (75840) and specifics about gate clearance, turnaround space, and driveway grade when ordering so drivers can safely deliver. Rural deliveries sometimes carry additional fees or require off-road-capable trucks, so request details at checkout.
Calculate cubic yards by multiplying length (ft) times width (ft) times depth (ft) and dividing by 27. For example, a 12 ft by 50 ft driveway at 3 inches (0.25 ft) depth needs about 6.7 cubic yards; at 4 inches depth it needs about 8.9 cubic yards. Typical driveways use 3 to 6 inches of top material, so choose depth based on traffic and whether you have a compacted base.
Small garden beds, weed-barrier applications, and simple paths are often suitable for experienced DIYers, while projects that require grading, drainage work, or large volumes of material usually benefit from a contractor. Contractors bring equipment, local permit knowledge, and experience with regional soils and drainage; DIY saves labor costs but needs the right tools and time. Consider project size, your comfort with equipment, and any local code requirements when deciding.
Permits and HOA rules vary by city, county, and neighborhood, so always check with Fairfield city offices, Limestone County (if applicable), and your HOA before changing large areas of hardscape or drainage. Restrictions commonly address driveway width, impervious surface limits, and required setback or stormwater controls. If in doubt, contact local authorities or your HOA to confirm requirements before ordering materials.
Prices vary between suppliers because of differences in quarry location, material grading, truck availability, and local demand. Hello Gravel helps compare local supplier bids and shows transparent pricing so you can see delivery fees and material details side by side. To get the best estimate, compare materials by weight or cubic yard, check any extra service fees, and ask about regional variations in texture and color.
It depends on the project: sand drains quickly and is useful for leveling and bedding, while coarser, well-graded aggregates provide better structural support and drainage for paths and driveways. When choosing between gravel, sand, dirt, stone, think about compaction needs, water flow, and the finished look you want; often a combination of materials (base layer, then a top layer) yields the best performance. Ask suppliers for local recommendations based on Fairfield’s climate and your intended use.
Standard delivery is typically 2 or more business days from order, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel uses local contractor trucking fleets and drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request spreading in checkout notes but understand it is not guaranteed. Provide clear delivery instructions, check site access, and be ready to communicate with the driver to help ensure a smooth drop-off.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
