A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel

Why Sunset Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sunset is a small but active community with a city population of 2,420 and ties to a larger regional market of 2.5+ million people. A steady growth rate of 0.70% annually means modest but consistent demand for home improvement and small-scale construction work — enough to keep local contractors busy and encourage homeowners to invest in durable landscaping and hardscaping. With 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.80 inches in hardiness zone 8b, material choices need to balance sun exposure and periodic wet weather. Homeowners in Sunset are increasingly focused on drought-tolerant planting, erosion control, and low-maintenance hardscape features; that trend drives demand for a range of bulk supplies like dirt for grading, sand for leveling, aggregates for drainage, mulch for moisture retention, and stone for durable surfaces. Local climate and weather patterns create practical requirements for how materials perform over time. High solar exposure accelerates drying and UV exposure, while 34.80 inches of annual rainfall can create runoff and washout risks where slopes and drainage are inadequate; together these conditions make drainage, compaction, and stabilization key considerations. For homeowners, that means choosing materials that resist movement, promote infiltration where needed, and help retain moisture for plantings. Hello Gravel helps by connecting Sunset residents with locally sourced suppliers and delivery options, offering calculators and guidance so you can match material type and quantity to your site conditions and project timeline.Popular Projects in Sunset This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sunset Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Sunset.
Start by matching the material to the project's function: erosion control, drainage, driveway base, or decorative surfacing. Consider local climate and soil in West Texas—materials that drain well and resist washout are often preferred. Use our online material quiz or contact our team for recommendations based on your site conditions and project goals.
West Texas is typically hot and dry with occasional heavy rains, so choose materials that handle rapid runoff and limited moisture retention. Local soils may be clay or compact easily, so a well-draining aggregate is often needed for bases and drainage layers. Keep in mind that color and texture will vary because materials are sourced regionally.
Common projects include driveway repair, landscape beds, drainage swales, and hardscape base layers. For base and drainage work, choose well-graded aggregates; for decorative surfaces, select a consistent color and size profile. We can help estimate quantities and suggest materials suitable for both DIY homeowners and contractors.
Measure the area (length x width) and desired depth, then convert cubic feet to cubic yards or tons using our online calculator. Depths vary by use—2–4 inches for decorative surfacing, 4–8 inches for paths, and 6–12 inches for driveway bases are common starting points. If you prefer, send measurements or photos and our team can help estimate quantities.
Minimum orders generally start around 3 tons, which covers many small landscaping jobs. Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Always check availability and scheduling at checkout for the most accurate timing.
We work with local haulers who serve most zip codes, but some rural routes may have limited access or extra charges due to distance and road conditions. Delivery fees vary by location; many areas offer free delivery but remote deliveries often incur an additional fee. Enter your zip code at checkout or contact our team to confirm delivery options and any surcharges.
Drivers may be able to provide tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. You can request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess once on site. For projects requiring precise spreading or final grading, consider hiring a local landscaper or renting equipment.
Natural materials reflect regional geology, so color and texture can vary from photos; we note regional variation on product pages. If you need to change an order, contact our team as soon as possible—changes are easier before dispatch but are not always guaranteed. For issues with the delivery or product, reach out to customer service and we will work to resolve the problem.
Ask about minimum order size, delivery lead time, truck size and access requirements, and whether tailgate spreading is available. Also confirm how the material is sourced regionally and if color or gradation can vary. If you have unusual access or surface limitations, provide photos so we can coordinate the right truck and driver.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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!
