Why Marshall Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Marshall is a small but growing community of 6,200 residents situated within a broader metro region of 2.6+ million people. Its steady 1.20% annual growth translates into a reliable pace of new homes, renovations, and infrastructure projects that keep local demand for bulk materials consistent rather than boom-or-bust. Marshall's climate—with 228 sunny days a year, 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b—favors year-round outdoor work but also requires materials that manage both sun exposure and intermittent heavy moisture. For homeowners that means thinking beyond aesthetics: proper drainage aggregates, stable fill, and topsoils that support plantings while resisting erosion are priorities. Projects from driveways and drainage to planting beds and patios all benefit when gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and other aggregates are sized and sourced to local conditions. Using quality bulk materials reduces rework, improves longevity, and adapts installations to Marshall's specific weather and soil behavior.Popular Projects in Marshall This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Marshall Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Marshall.
For most medium-to-large projects, ordering bulk is usually cheaper per cubic yard or ton than buying the same material in bags because you avoid packaging and handling costs. Bulk ordering also reduces jobsite waste and labor required to open many bags, but it does require room to store the delivery and tools to spread or move the material. Hello Gravel has a minimum order (3 tons) and can help estimate whether bulk makes sense for your project.
Bulk materials are commonly sold by the ton or cubic yard; Hello Gravel lists most products by ton and provides a material calculator to convert between volume and weight. Different materials compact and weigh differently, so conversions vary by material; when in doubt use our calculator or contact our team for a precise estimate. You can also add notes at checkout for delivery placement and preferences.
Start by identifying the function—load-bearing surfaces, drainage, weed suppression, or decorative finish—and choose a material that fits that need. For example, materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates perform differently for compaction, drainage, and appearance, so consider those traits plus local climate. If you are unsure, use our aggregate quiz or contact our sales team for guidance tailored to Marshall projects.
Measure the length and width of the area and decide on the depth you want, then multiply to get cubic feet and convert to cubic yards, or use Hello Gravel’s online calculator to convert to tons. Typical guidance—such as a few inches for surface cover or several inches for base—can vary by project type, so we recommend using the calculator or asking our team for a quick check. Ordering a little extra for compaction and grading is common; we can advise how much contingency to add.
Deliveries are made by professional dump trucks (usually tri-axle) on a scheduled date and time window that you choose at checkout. The driver will assess access and place the load where it can be safely dumped, but tight driveways, overhead wires, frozen ground, or soft spots can limit placement. We recommend clearing the drop area and noting any obstacles in your order notes so the hauler can plan accordingly.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and you can request this service at checkout, but it is not guaranteed. Spreading depends on site conditions, truck access, and driver safety assessments, so plan to have tools or crew ready if specific placement or finish is required. If spreading is essential, mention it when ordering and ask our team about available options.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture, color, and small-size variation reflect local geology and can differ from website photos or samples. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates will have natural variation, so if color or texture is important, add preferences in the Order Notes and contact our team for local product details. We’ll work with local suppliers to match your needs as closely as possible, but exact matches cannot be guaranteed.
Contact our customer service team as soon as possible with any change requests; modifications are easier before the order is processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate changes, but ability to change or cancel depends on supplier and truck scheduling, so requests made late in the process may not be possible. See our order terms or contact us for next steps.
Yes—weather affects delivery access and material performance: frozen or wet ground can limit where trucks can go and make spreading more difficult. Plan major projects ahead of heavy-rain or freeze periods, and allow extra lead time in busy seasons. If timing is important, consider the next-day delivery option (when available) and speak to our team about the best delivery window.
We support a wide range of residential and contractor projects including driveways and road base, landscaping and garden beds, patio and walkway bases, drainage and erosion control, and bulk site fill or grading. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates are suitable for these uses depending on specification and local conditions, and our team can recommend quantities and products for your project. For detailed estimates, use our calculator or contact our sales staff for a quick quote.
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.
