Hello Gravel Guarantee
Right material. Safe delivery. Real help if we miss.
How it works
- We fix what we control. Wrong material, confirmed fulfillment errors, or orders we cannot complete are reviewed for replacement, refund, or another fair resolution.
- Safe delivery comes first. The driver chooses the final safe dump location on site. If your requested spot is not safely reachable, we deliver to the closest safe location available.
- Plans change. You can cancel free up to one full business day before delivery. Next-business-day orders cannot be cancelled once confirmed.
- Natural material varies. Color, texture, moisture, dust, and sizing can vary by quarry, supplier, season, and region.
“We chose a delivery date. The driver dropped it exactly where I asked. I had never ordered gravel in my life.”

Calling Hello Gravel I was very impressed with Nina she understood exactly what we were looking for. She helped tremendously with ordering and coordinating our gravel delivery. She was very professional and kept us informed ever step of the way. The product arrived on time and was a great deal cheeper then most other companies. The driver showed up on time and was very helpful and knew his job to a T. He unloaded the gravel exactly where we needed it. I couldn't ask for a better company or the people that assisted in this project. We now have a new gravel company for every project we do from here to the Future. Thank you so much Hello Gravel Nina in the driver that delivered our product.

Frequently Asked Questions
Use our built-in calculator on this page — enter the length, width, and depth of your project area, and we'll calculate the exact amount. As a general rule, 1 ton of material covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep.
We deliver directly to your driveway or project site using a dump truck. Just choose your delivery date and time window (AM or PM) during checkout. Next-day delivery is available on orders placed before noon.
Yes! Delivery is included in the price you see — no hidden fees, no surprises. The price per ton (or yard) you see is the price you pay, delivered.
The minimum order is typically 1 ton (or 1 cubic yard for mulch and soil products). Our pricing gets better with larger quantities — a full truckload (18 tons) gives you the best per-unit price.
Due to the nature of bulk materials, we cannot accept returns once delivered. We recommend using our calculator to get the right amount — it's better to order slightly more than to run short mid-project.
For driveways, we recommend 4-6 inches of compacted base. For patios and walkways, 3-4 inches is sufficient. Heavy-use areas like parking lots may need 6-8 inches. Always compact in 2-inch lifts for best results.
Absolutely. Compaction is essential for base materials to perform properly. Rent a plate compactor for small areas or a roller for larger projects. Water the base lightly before compacting for best results.
