Why Tomball Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tomball's city population is 105,130, and with a growth rate of 0.70% annually this area is seeing steady, sustained demand for residential and light commercial projects. That steady growth, combined with 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.80 inches in hardiness zone 8b, means homeowners and contractors in Tomball are balancing sun exposure and periodic heavy rain when choosing materials. Projects increasingly favor durable, low-maintenance solutions for driveways, drainage, and outdoor living areas; materials that resist UV degradation, manage runoff, and tolerate periodic wet-dry cycles become especially valuable. For these reasons, reliable access to a range of aggregates—dirt for grading, sand for leveling, mulch for planting beds, and stone mixes for drainage and surfaces—is essential to keep timelines on track and reduce rework from weather-related settling or erosion.Popular Projects in Tomball This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tomball Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tomball.
Homeowners in Tomball often choose a mix of materials depending on the project: base and compactable materials for driveways, and decorative or drainage-friendly choices for landscaping. Gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar aggregates can be used for bases, top layers, pathways, and garden beds. Consider traffic load, drainage needs, and desired appearance when choosing a material.
The busiest times are generally spring and fall when temperatures are milder and planting or hardscape work is popular. Summer can be very hot in Tomball while late spring and hurricane season bring heavier rains that can delay work. Plan ahead and use our checkout calendar to reserve a delivery window.
Tomball’s warm, humid climate and clay-heavy soils mean drainage is a top consideration. Select materials that promote drainage or add a drainage layer; for example, combine larger stone for drainage with finer material for a finished surface. Regional sourcing means texture and color can vary, so expect local variations in appearance.
Common orders vary by project size: small pathways or garden beds often need 1–3 cubic yards (roughly 1.2–5 tons depending on material), a single-car driveway top layer might be 5–10 cubic yards (about 6–16 tons), and larger driveways or backyard regrades can be 10–30 cubic yards. Conversions vary by material density, so use our material calculator or ask our team for a tailored estimate. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets (usually tri-axle) and many areas qualify for free delivery, but fees can vary by zip code. You can select your preferred delivery date at checkout and request tailgate spreading, which drivers may provide at their discretion.
Clear the drop area of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles, and note any overhead lines, gates, or tight turns that could restrict truck access. Mark the desired drop location and plan for vehicle parking so the truck can maneuver safely. If access is restricted or a safe drop is not possible, the driver may adjust the location or refuse to unload.
Many neighborhoods and HOAs set rules about driveway surfaces, visible yard materials, and front-yard coverage, and some city projects may require permits for large deliveries or driveway alterations. Check your HOA guidelines and Tomball city regulations before ordering to avoid compliance issues. If you’re unsure, contact our team or your local planning office for guidance.
In Tomball’s humid, sometimes rainy climate, materials may settle, compact, or wash into low spots more quickly than in drier regions. Routine maintenance such as regrading, adding topping material, and checking drainage after heavy rains will extend service life. Choosing well-draining material combinations and proper installation practices helps reduce maintenance needs.
Start by identifying the project type (driveway, patio base, raised bed, regrade), expected traffic, and drainage needs, then consider appearance and maintenance preferences. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator and aggregate quiz or contact our sales team with project dimensions and photos for personalized guidance. We also recommend checking your zip code (77375) for availability and scheduling options.
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.

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.
