Most tri-axle dump trucks used in Brown County carry about 10 to 12 tons of gravel, depending on the material density and local weight limits. Hello Gravel typically uses tri-axle trucks, but capacity can vary by hauler and material type.

Residential deliveries usually don't need a permit, but local ordinances, county road rules, or HOAs may have restrictions on driveway work or heavy truck access. Check Brown County or your city office and your HOA before scheduling large deliveries, especially for commercial sites or curb cuts.

Crushed limestone and road base are common in central Texas and work well for driveways because they compact firmly and drain well. For top dressing, 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57 gravel is typical; choose coarser base materials below and finer surfacing on top for the best performance.

No. Materials are sourced locally and natural stone varies in color and texture based on Brown County's geology, so samples or photos are illustrative. You can add color preferences in Order Notes, and Hello Gravel will pass them to the supplier, but exact matches are not guaranteed.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request this service at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading, so plan for additional labor or equipment if you need finished grading.

Gravel can be a good low-maintenance mulch alternative and helps drainage in Brown County's hot, sometimes dry climate, but it increases soil temperature and can reduce moisture retention. Use gravel in pathways, rock gardens, and xeriscaping, and avoid placing it directly over plant root zones where moisture is needed.
