Why Leakey Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Leakey is a small but active community with a city population of 1,620, and its modest 0.70% annual growth rate points to steady, sustainable demand for home improvements and small-scale construction. That steady growth means homeowners and contractors are more likely to invest in long-term landscaping, driveway repairs, and property upgrades rather than sudden large developments. Local climate and geography — with 228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall of 34.80 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b — shape which materials perform best: sun exposure and intermittent rain emphasize the need for durable base materials, reliable drainage solutions, and landscaping supplies that tolerate UV and seasonal moisture. Across projects, from grading yards to installing paths or stabilizing slopes, quality bulk materials such as earth, aggregates, and organic groundcover make a measurable difference in longevity and maintenance needs.Popular Projects in Leakey This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Leakey Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Leakey.
Homeowners in Leakey often pick materials based on drainage, maintenance, and local availability. For most projects consider bulk materials (gravel, sand, dirt, stone) that compact well, shed water, and match the look you want. Choose based on slope and traffic: better-compacting mixes for driveways, coarser mixes for drainage, and finer fills for leveling. Use our material quiz or contact our team for a recommendation based on your site.
Pricing varies by material type, distance from the supplier, site access, and seasonal demand. In rural areas like Leakey additional hauling or fuel surcharges and minimum-order fees can apply. The easiest way to get an accurate estimate is to enter your zip code at checkout or request a quote so local suppliers and haul rates are shown upfront.
West Texas conditions—hot summers, occasional storms, and seasonal freeze-thaw—can influence compaction, dust, and erosion. Choose materials and installation methods that improve drainage, resist washout, and tolerate sun and heat; for example, proper grading and compaction help prevent rutting and erosion. Expect some regional variation in color and texture due to local sourcing and plan for periodic maintenance after heavy storms.
Suppliers and contractors tend to be busiest in spring and fall, with higher demand around planting and construction seasons. For best availability, schedule deliveries during weekday mornings and book at least a few days in advance; standard delivery is 2+ business days and a next-day option is available for orders placed before noon CST. If you have a tight timeline, request an earlier date at checkout and confirm access details to avoid delays.
Hello Gravel serves rural areas but availability depends on zip code and local suppliers. The platform minimum order is 3 tons; some rural deliveries may incur extra fees for long distances, narrow roads, or required offloading equipment. Provide clear directions, photos of the drop area, and any gate codes at checkout so haulers can confirm accessibility and pricing.
Calculate cubic yards with this formula: (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324 = cubic yards needed. Convert to tons using a rough density range of 1.2 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard depending on the material, or use our online material calculator for a specific estimate. Add 5-10% extra for compaction, grading waste, or irregular shapes to be safe.
Local rules can vary; some projects may need county permits, driveway permits, or have restrictions in floodplain or sensitive areas. Check with the City of Leakey or Real County offices and any HOA before ordering materials, and share permit requirements with your supplier so deliveries comply with local regulations. If you are unsure, our team can remind you to verify permits before scheduling delivery.
Compare permeability, particle size, compaction needs, cost, and maintenance. For drainage or erosion control prioritize open-graded or angular materials with good infiltration and pairing with fabric or geogrid where needed. For pathways consider comfort underfoot, weed control, and how much routine replenishment the material will need in Leakey's climate.
Practices vary: some contractors include material procurement in their bids, while others prefer homeowners to supply materials to control cost and selection. Always clarify in the estimate whether the contractor will purchase and schedule delivery or if you should order materials directly through a platform like Hello Gravel. If you order materials yourself, coordinate delivery timing and drop location with your contractor to avoid double-handling.
Store materials on a level, well-drained area on top of a tarp or pallets to keep them off grass and away from standing water. Cover piles with a tarp to reduce washout from storms and place them close to the work area to minimize handling. Keep different materials separated, label them if needed, and protect driveways and access points from heavy truck traffic during delivery.
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. 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!
