Why Highland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Highland is a community with a city population: 51,900, and it sits within a larger region whose metro area population: 7.9+ million. With a growth rate: 0.40% annually, construction and landscaping demand in Highland is steady rather than explosive—most activity favors incremental home improvements, targeted site upgrades, and routine infrastructure work over large-scale booms. The local climate—sunny days: 204/year and annual rainfall: 49.77 inches, in hardiness zone: 9a—means homeowners need materials that perform under both long dry spells and significant seasonal moisture. That combination favors durable base materials, reliable drainage aggregates, soil amendments to improve structure, and organic mulches for plant health. Trends toward low-maintenance yards, water-smart landscaping, and staged renovations are driving demand for a range of bulk supplies—gravel, dirt, sand, mulch, and stone—all of which must balance durability, drainage, and aesthetic goals in Highland's environment.Popular Projects in Highland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Highland Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Highland.
Choose materials that tolerate heat and shed or absorb water as needed; look for aggregates with good drainage and stable compaction. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, expect local variations in gravel, sand, dirt, stone and pick materials that balance permeability, stability, and appearance for your project. For slopes or areas with runoff, prioritize coarser, well-graded mixes and consider geotextile fabric or a compacted base to reduce washout.
Measure length, width, and depth in feet and use this formula: cubic yards = (length x width x depth) / 27. Convert cubic yards to tons using a range (about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material), then add 5-10% extra for compaction and waste. Hello Gravel’s online material calculator can automate these steps and account for the minimum 3-ton order.
Plan major deliveries and installation during dry months to avoid washout from occasional heavy rains; spring through early fall is often best for most aggregate work. Avoid peak afternoon heat when placing or compacting certain materials; early morning or late afternoon helps with worker comfort and material handling. If rain is forecast, postpone delivery or request rain contingency planning to protect stockpiles and finished surfaces.
Standard delivery generally takes 2 or more business days, and Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Many areas have free delivery from nearby suppliers, but fees can apply for longer hauls or difficult access; minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is by contracted dump truck fleets. You can choose a delivery date during checkout and request tailgate spreading, which drivers may perform at their discretion.
Prices vary by material type, quantity, and supplier; as a general guide per-ton costs in the Highland area often fall into a broad range depending on material and season. Delivery is frequently included for nearby suppliers, while longer-distance or special service deliveries may incur a fee; next-day delivery typically carries an extra charge. For an accurate estimate, check Hello Gravel’s pricing for your zip code and quantity or request a quote.
Many projects affecting curb lines, driveway aprons, impermeable surface area, or significant grading can require city permits or HOA approval in Highland. Rules vary widely, so check with the City of Highland building or planning department and your HOA before ordering materials. If you’re unsure, Hello Gravel’s team can point you to local resources, but you should confirm approvals before starting work.
Highland’s occasional heavy rains and hilly areas can cause runoff, erosion, and sediment movement if surfaces aren’t properly graded. Solutions include adding a stable base layer, using well-graded aggregates to improve drainage, installing edging or swales to direct water, and using geotextile fabric to separate soils and prevent washout. Selecting the right combination of gravel, sand, dirt, stone and proper installation is key to long-term stability.
Homeowners and contractors often choose locally sourced, well-graded aggregates and soil blends that balance cost, appearance, and performance for walkways, driveways, and garden beds. Recycled or crushed materials, compactable base mixes, and blended topsoils can be economical while meeting local needs; choices should reflect intended use, drainage needs, and local climate. Use Hello Gravel’s material descriptions and calculator to compare options and quantities before ordering.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible if you need to modify or cancel an order; changes are easier to accommodate before the order is dispatched. If there’s an issue on delivery, take photos and contact customer service promptly so we can work with the supplier and hauler to resolve it. See our order and refund policies for details and next steps.

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.

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.

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.
