Why Manvel Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Manvel has a population of 29,370 and is part of a broader metro area exceeding 2.5+ million residents. With a steady annual growth rate of 0.70%, demand for homebuilding, landscaping, and renovation projects is consistent rather than explosive—meaning homeowners can expect ongoing local construction and maintenance needs rather than boom‑and‑bust swings. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—favors outdoor projects that balance sun exposure with episodic heavy rain. That combination drives demand for reliable bulk supplies across many types: dirt and topsoil for planting, sand and fines for grading, aggregates for drainage, and organic mulches for moisture retention. In Manvel, using properly graded, regionally sourced materials matters because they handle UV exposure, seasonal wetting, and the local soil textures more predictably than generic mixes shipped from far away.Popular Projects in Manvel This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Manvel Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Manvel.
Start with the project goal: drainage, structural base, or surface finish. Consider local conditions and whether you need a compactable base or a decorative top layer; gravel, sand, dirt, stone and mixes each perform differently for load-bearing, drainage, and planting. Use our online material quiz and calculator or contact our team for help matching materials to your specific project and budget.
Account for Manvel's warm weather patterns and periods of heavy rain when choosing materials that handle wet conditions and drainage. Materials that allow water to percolate reduce pooling in low areas, while denser fills help with grading and stability; regional sourcing means texture and color will vary. If you have known drainage or erosion spots, plan for additional base or edging to protect the installation.
Choose based on function: a compactable base is ideal for driveways and paths, while loose, well-draining materials work for beds and swales. For a finished surface consider material size, appearance, and maintenance needs—gravel, sand, dirt, stone and blends can serve base layers, top layers, or soil amendments depending on the project. If in doubt, describe your project to our team and we can recommend a multi-layer approach that balances durability and looks.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area and enter those numbers into our online material calculator for the most accurate estimate. As a general rule, one cubic yard typically weighs about 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on the material and moisture content, so tonnage will vary. For linear projects like driveways or drainage swales, provide width and depth to get square-foot and linear-foot guidance from our team.
Standard delivery is available in 2+ business days and next-day delivery is offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks with a minimum order of 3 tons; you can choose a preferred delivery date at checkout. Request tailgate spreading in the Order Notes, but drivers will assess safety and access on arrival and spreading is not guaranteed.
Delivery pricing depends on factors like load size, distance from the supplier, site access, and any special handling requests. Hello Gravel posts transparent pricing for your zip code at checkout and shows any additional fees before you pay; enter 77578 to check local availability and rates. If you need a custom quote for a large job, contact our sales team for assistance.
Drivers can often deliver to challenging sites, but access restrictions such as narrow driveways, low-hanging wires, gates, or soft ground may prevent a truck from safely dumping where you want. Note access details in the Order Notes and contact our team before delivery to review staging options or alternative drop-off points. The driver will make a final safety assessment on arrival and may request a different staging location if needed.
You should check local city rules and any HOA covenants that apply to visible surfaces, driveway changes, grading, or large deliveries before ordering. Some projects require permits for grading, drainage changes, or visible hardscaping; Hello Gravel cannot confirm permit requirements but recommends contacting Manvel city offices or your HOA. If permits are required, schedule delivery after approvals are in place to avoid delays.
Spring and fall are often preferred for outdoor projects because weather is milder and ground conditions are easier to work with, but scheduling depends on your specific project and contractor availability. Avoid heavy-rain seasons for deliveries that require truck access over soft ground to reduce the risk of rutting. Order ahead of peak seasons to secure preferred delivery dates and avoid material supply delays.
Contact our customer team as soon as possible—changes are easiest before your order is processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but once a truck is scheduled or materials have left the supplier we may not be able to make changes. Review the order confirmation and reach out by phone or text for quickest help.
Natural bulk materials vary by local geology and supplier, so color and texture may not exactly match photos. If the material you receive differs significantly from what you expected, contact customer service with photos and order details so we can review and work toward a satisfactory solution. Refer to our refund policy for details on next steps.
Both are common: many homeowners handle small projects themselves, while larger jobs often involve a contractor who orders larger quantities and coordinates installation. Hello Gravel serves both DIYers and contractors and can supply minimum loads starting at 3 tons or larger bulk orders for professional jobs. If you plan to hire a contractor, ask them whether they prefer you to source materials or if they will handle ordering and 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.
