Why Portland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Portland is a mid-sized Texas city with a population of 18,170, and it sits within a broader metro area of 2.5+ million residents. A steady annual growth rate of 0.70% annually points to measured, ongoing demand for housing, yard upgrades, and small commercial projects rather than a boom-and-bust cycle. In practical terms, that steady growth means homeowners can expect more renovation and landscaping activity in their neighborhoods: driveway repairs, yard makeovers, patio and hardscape additions, and incremental infrastructure work. With 228 sunny days annually and 34.80 inches of rainfall each year in hardiness zone 8b, local projects need materials that handle strong sunlight, periodic heavy rain, and warm winters. Quality bulk materials—well-graded aggregates, stable soils, and resilient mulches and sands—help control erosion, improve drainage, and reduce maintenance for Portland properties over time.Popular Projects in Portland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Portland Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Portland.
For long-term durability choose materials that suit drainage and traffic: well-graded aggregates, compactible base materials, and a wearing surface matched to your use. In Portland's West Texas climate, consider options that resist rutting and washout; gravel, sand, dirt, stone and mixes can all work if properly selected and installed with a compacted base. Contractors often layer a compactable base under a larger wearing material for the most durable result.
Delivery cost depends on material type, quantity, distance, and access; Hello Gravel lists transparent prices online and connects you with local suppliers so you can see estimates before ordering. Note minimum orders start at 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. For contractor loads, request a quote in checkout to see bulk pricing and any access or drop fees.
Choose materials that tolerate heat, resist shifting, and need minimal watering once installed; well-draining and stable aggregates are often best for low-maintenance yards. Natural regional variations mean color and texture may vary, so check local samples and consider blending materials to improve performance. Proper installation, weed barrier, and occasional topping will extend lifespan in hot, dry conditions.
Yes, local suppliers and contracted haulers typically deliver to both residential and rural addresses in Portland's service area, though access limitations may affect drop location. Standard deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks and require a suitable place for the truck to safely unload; mention driveways, gates, and obstacles in Order Notes. If you need tailgate spreading, request it at checkout but understand the driver will assess feasibility and no spreading is guaranteed.
To estimate quantity, multiply the area (1,000 sq ft) by the desired depth in feet, then convert cubic feet to tons using a typical density; Hello Gravel's material calculator can do this automatically. As a rule of thumb, 1 inch of material over 1,000 sq ft is about 0.31 cubic yards, and many materials have different weights so the calculator helps convert to tons. Include extra for compaction and grading—we recommend ordering a little more than the exact calculation to avoid running short.
Local city rules, county road restrictions, and HOA covenants can affect allowable materials, driveway widths, and where trucks can unload, so always check with Portland city offices and your HOA before ordering. Some neighborhoods restrict visible material colors or require permits for new driveways or large deliveries. If access or permit issues exist, note them in your order so we can coordinate with suppliers and drivers.
Spring and fall are typically easiest for deliveries and installations in West Texas because extreme heat and occasional heavy rains are less likely to interfere with compaction and finish work. Summer deliveries are possible but may require early start times to avoid midday heat, while winter is usually fine unless unusual weather or storms occur. Plan a few days buffer around your target date and choose the delivery window at checkout to help ensure smooth timing.
Base materials that compact well provide the longest-lasting support and reduce settling, while surface materials differ in maintenance: some require occasional raking and topping, others need periodic regrading. Longevity depends on traffic, drainage, and installation quality—good drainage and a compacted base usually mean lower long-term maintenance. Consider how much upkeep you want and ask the sales team for combinations that balance lifespan and care needs.
For drainage and erosion control, choose materials that allow water to pass while resisting movement under flow, and pair them with proper grading and edging. Permeable aggregates and well-graded base mixes often perform well for channeling water, while finer materials can be used where compaction and stabilization are needed. Always evaluate the specific slope, soil type, and runoff volume on your site and consider combining materials for the best result.
Contractors can often access bulk pricing through Hello Gravel's platform; pricing and discounts depend on volume and supplier availability in the Portland area. Typical lead time for standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; same-day delivery may be possible in limited cases depending on local hauler schedules. Contact our team for contractor accounts, large-quantity scheduling, and to discuss guaranteed windows or special logistics.
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.
