1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Black Shredded Mulch
Rich black shredded hardwood mulch made from oak, hickory, and maple. Holds in moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your garden beds a bold look that makes green plants and colorful flowers stand out.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
Topsoil
High-grade soil enriched with organic matter. Perfect for landscaping, lawn establishment and repair, and for improving existing soil.
Fulfillment:
Should never be fulfilled with material that does not include an organic component, though organic components should be small.
2-10% organic is ideal

Why Plano Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Plano, Texas, with a city population of 285,461 and part of a metro area totaling 2.5+ million, is seeing steady development that translates into ongoing demand for landscaping and construction materials. A growth rate of 0.70% annually means homeowners and contractors are regularly adding driveways, patios, grading work, and yard renovations rather than just occasional projects. Combined with an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, about 228 sunny days per year, and placement in USDA hardiness zone 8b, material choices must balance drainage, stability, and UV/weather resistance. In practice that means selecting bulk materials that support proper site drainage, resist erosion on sloped lots, and tolerate cycles of heat and occasional heavy rain. Local trends—subdivision infill, outdoor living upgrades, and xeric-friendly landscaping—drive demand for a range of aggregates, soils, and mulches that perform reliably in North Texas conditions.Popular Projects in Plano This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Plano Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Plano.
Prices vary by material, truck type, and delivery distance. Factors that affect cost include material type, quantity, whether you need spreading, and time of delivery; use our online quote tool for an accurate price. Note that Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and offers transparent pricing at checkout.
Buying in bulk is often cheaper per unit because you avoid bagging and retail markup, especially for larger projects. Bulk orders require storage and handling on site, so weigh those costs against the per-unit savings before you decide.
Typical depth guidelines: mulch 2-3 inches for beds (the '3-3-3 rule' is a common starting point for mulch layers), topsoil 4-6 inches for new lawns or planting beds, and compacted base material 4-8 inches for patios and driveways depending on traffic. These are starting points—adjust depth for plant type, drainage needs, and local site conditions.
Measure the length and width of the area and choose the desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards (length x width x depth in feet divided by 27). For irregular shapes or mixed materials, use our online material calculator or contact our team for help with conversions and waste factors. Remember that gravel, sand, dirt, and stone have different densities, so ask if you need a ton-to-yard estimate.
It depends on the material and condition of the existing layer. For mulch and topdressing, topping up is common; for structural layers like crushed stone or subbase, dirty or contaminated materials are usually removed and replaced. If in doubt, send photos or ask our team to help assess the best approach.
Two inches is generally too shallow for establishing a healthy lawn from seed or sod. For most grasses and good root development, 4-6 inches of quality topsoil is recommended. If you are just topdressing an established lawn, thinner applications can be acceptable over several treatments.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery can be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. You can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout and we will confirm scheduling with the hauling partner. Keep in mind minimum order size and local access restrictions that may affect scheduling.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and if it can be done safely; request this service at checkout. This service is not guaranteed and depends on site access, depth control needs, and safety considerations. If precise spreading is required, consider hiring a landscaper for final grading.
Requirements vary by neighborhood and HOA; check your association rules and local ordinances before delivery. Heavy trucks may require street-parking permits or restrictions if they block traffic, and some HOAs want advance notice for visible deliveries. If you’re unsure, contact Hello Gravel for guidance and add any special instructions in Order Notes.
Local sourcing means materials reflect Plano-area geology, so color and texture may vary from photos. Plano’s hot summers and occasional heavy rain favor materials that promote good drainage and resist washout for slopes and driveways. Tell our team about site conditions so we can recommend materials suited to local climate and soil.
Common uses include garden beds, driveways, patios, grading, erosion control, and lawn topdressing. Small garden beds often need 1-3 cubic yards, typical driveways and patios can require 10-30 cubic yards depending on depth and area, and large landscape grading projects scale up from there. Use our calculator or contact us with your dimensions for a tailored estimate.
Clear a path for the truck and mark any obstacles, low branches, or underground hazards, and provide a visible placed spot for dumping if possible. Make sure driveway and yard access can support a tri-axle truck; if access is tight, choose a nearby offload area and plan for moving material. Add delivery notes at checkout and provide a phone number so the driver can coordinate arrival.
Contact customer service promptly and include photos and order details so we can review the issue. Because materials are regionally sourced, color and texture can vary; we will work with you and the supplier to resolve concerns in line with our policies. For returns or refunds, follow the instructions on our support page and provide as much information as possible.
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.
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!
