Why Hidalgo Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hidalgo is home to 16,090 residents and is experiencing steady, modest expansion at a 0.70% annual growth rate. That kind of steady growth usually means consistent demand for home maintenance, small additions, and gradual new construction rather than boom-level building. With 228 sunny days a year, 34.80 inches of annual rainfall, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, local projects must balance sun exposure, occasional heavy rains, and plant selection suited to a warm, moderately wet climate. For homeowners that translates into choosing durable, UV-stable surfacing, drainage-friendly aggregates, soil mixes that retain moisture without becoming waterlogged, and erosion-control supplies for slopes and driveways. These trends push homeowners toward quality bulk materials that perform long-term—reducing maintenance and protecting landscaping, paving, and grading investments in Hidalgo’s specific conditions.Popular Projects in Hidalgo This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hidalgo Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hidalgo.
Quantities depend on depth and coverage. Use our material calculator for the most accurate result, but as a rule of thumb a small patio or planter often needs 1 to 3 cubic yards, backyard leveling commonly needs 3 to 10 cubic yards, and larger driveways or resurfacing can require 10 to 30 cubic yards. Keep in mind densities vary by material; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order.
Choose materials based on function: stability for driveways, drainage for beds, and appearance for decorative areas. In Hidalgo's climate, durable, well-draining aggregates are often preferred as base and surface layers, while finer materials are used for leveling or plant beds. Consider a layered approach (base, binder, top) rather than a single material for long-term performance.
Hot, dry conditions increase dust, fade colors, and reduce organic breakdown. Pick materials that resist dust and hold up under high temperatures and occasional heavy rain, and choose lighter colors if heat reflection is a concern. For planted areas, select materials and soil mixes that retain moisture and support irrigation needs.
Deliveries are available year-round, but avoid scheduling heavy installation work during the hottest summer months if possible to protect workers and plants. For landscape installs and planting, cooler months are generally better; for hardscape or gravel delivery, fall through early spring is often easiest. Hello Gravel offers standard delivery in 2+ business days and next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee.
Yes, local suppliers and contracted haulers commonly deliver to both residential and rural addresses, but accessibility matters. Narrow streets, low-hanging wires, gated driveways, or steep approaches can limit truck placement or require an alternate drop point. Provide clear access details at checkout and call our team if you expect tight access so we can confirm suitability.
Typical needs vary by project scope and depth: small patios or planters often need 1 to 3 cubic yards, backyard leveling 3 to 10 cubic yards, and a single-car driveway resurfacing frequently falls in the 5 to 15 cubic yard range. Convert with a local calculator because one cubic yard can weigh differently depending on the material; Hello Gravel's online calculator helps translate project dimensions into tons and cubic yards.
Small residential deliveries usually do not require a permit, but blocking the street, placing material on public property, or storing large stockpiles may require city or county approval. Check with the City of Hidalgo or Hidalgo County for local ordinances and contact your HOA if you have one. When in doubt, request delivery to private property or get written permission to avoid fines or delays.
Price differences come from local quarry access, haul distance, supplier capacity, and seasonal demand. Materials sourced nearby and lower haul distances usually cost less, while scarcity, long hauls, or high local demand increase price. Get a quote for your zip code to see current pricing and consider ordering during off-peak times for better availability.
Use permeable materials and proper grading to direct water away from foundations, and combine aggregates with geotextile fabric or drain lines where needed. Swales, French drains, rock-lined channels, and retaining edges help manage heavy rain events while minimizing erosion. Select materials that promote infiltration for landscaped areas and more angular, stable stone for channels and slopes.
Many local contractors offer installation for material sales, but pricing varies by scope, site access, and equipment needs. Expect labor, equipment, and site-prep charges in addition to material costs; ask for a written estimate that breaks out materials, labor, permits, and cleanup. If you supply the materials, confirm whether the contractor will handle delivery placement or if extra fees apply for staging and spreading.
Clear a safe drop zone free of vehicles, tools, and low branches and mark any underground utilities or irrigation lines. Provide a level point of delivery and communicate any access constraints or special instructions at checkout. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if needed, but remember that drivers perform spreading at their discretion and it is not guaranteed.
Natural materials vary regionally, so texture and color may differ from photos or samples. If the material differs significantly from what you ordered, contact customer service promptly and provide photos so we can work with the supplier to resolve the issue. You can add color preferences in the Order Notes before delivery, but exact matches cannot be guaranteed due to local sourcing.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
