Why Refugio Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Refugio (city population 3,040) is a small but active community whose steady growth—about 0.70% annually—translates into consistent demand for home repairs, yard upgrades, and smaller-scale construction projects rather than rapid boom-style development. With 228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 34.80 inches in hardiness zone 8b, local conditions favor outdoor work for much of the year but also create specific material needs: reliable drainage and erosion control where storms concentrate runoff, UV- and heat-resistant surfaces for long-lived paths and patios, and soil amendments that perform under hot, sunny conditions. Homeowners here commonly seek a mix of aggregates, topsoil, and organic materials for driveways, grading, garden beds, and hardscape bases—so quality bulk supplies that suit local geology and weather are essential for projects that last. Local climate and soil patterns in Refugio mean materials must balance water management with heat tolerance. Periodic heavy rains after long sunny stretches can cause erosion and washing of loose materials, while persistent sun and warm winters speed breakdown of some organic products. That combination affects how materials settle, compact, and hold moisture, so choices about base materials, topsoil blends, and surface coverings influence long-term performance. Hello Gravel helps homeowners navigate those trade-offs by connecting them with local suppliers, providing material calculators and guidance, and coordinating delivery so that the right volumes and regional material types arrive when projects begin.Popular Projects in Refugio This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Refugio Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Refugio.
Homeowners and contractors in Refugio commonly order a mix of aggregates for outdoor projects, including gravel, sand, dirt, stone for landscaping and base work, and mulch or topsoil for planting beds. These materials are used for driveways, drainage projects, patios, leveling, and planting. Choose materials based on the function you need (drainage, support, finish), not just appearance.
Start by defining the purpose: load-bearing base, surface finish, or drainage. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone each perform differently for compaction, runoff, and appearance, so choose a base material for stability, a coarser material for drainage, and a finer finish material for walkability. If unsure, use Hello Gravel's material quiz or contact our team to match local options to your project's needs.
Refugio's coastal-influenced West Texas climate has hot, dry summers and periods of heavy rain, so pick materials that handle heat and shed water well. Schedule deliveries outside of predicted heavy rain or storms to avoid soggy surfaces and delivery delays, and order earlier in hot months to allow for proper compaction and curing. We recommend planning projects with seasonal weather in mind and checking local forecasts before your delivery date.
Clear the delivery area of vehicles, low-hanging branches, and obstacles, and mark any underground utilities or irrigation lines. Make sure there is a stable access route for a tri-axle dump truck and confirm driveway or road weight limits with your municipality or contractor. A prepared site reduces the risk of damage and makes unloading faster and safer.
Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so expect a need for the truck to enter or access your property and a turning radius for large vehicles. Narrow roads, low-hanging lines, soft shoulders, or steep driveways can limit where a driver can safely dump material, and local weight limits or HOA rules may impose restrictions. During checkout, note access issues and request advice so our haulers can plan the best approach.
Standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee when local suppliers can accommodate it. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion if it can be done safely; request spreading in the Order Notes but note that it is not guaranteed. We will confirm available delivery windows and services when your order is processed.
Some properties in Refugio may be subject to city permits, county regulations, or HOA rules for driveway work, grading, or large deliveries, especially near coastal or flood-prone areas. Check with Refugio city or county offices and your HOA before starting work, and inform our team of any permit requirements so we can help coordinate scheduling. We cannot obtain permits for you but can provide delivery details you may need for applications.
Because Refugio can experience heavy rain and coastal weather, choose materials that promote proper drainage and resist erosion; combining a permeable base with a coarser drainage layer helps prevent pooling. Avoid placing impermeable material over low spots without a plan for runoff, and consider grading the site away from foundations. If drainage is a concern, consult with a local contractor to design a layered system that fits local soil and climate conditions.
Measure the area you plan to cover and use volume-based calculators (square feet times depth) to estimate tons or cubic yards; Hello Gravel's online calculator can help convert between units. Keep in mind our minimum order is generally 3 tons, and ordering slightly more than calculated accounts for settling and compaction. If you need help with estimates, contact our team with project dimensions and desired depth.
Local pricing varies by supplier, material type, and delivery distance, so the fastest way to get an accurate price is to enter your zip code on Hello Gravel, pick materials, and request a quote. You can also call or text our team for guidance on quantities, delivery windows, and special access notes. We offer transparent pricing at checkout and will confirm delivery timing once your order is processed.

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.
