1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Red Shredded Mulch
Red shredded bark and wood from hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. Good for gardening and landscaping. Helps hold moisture, block weeds, and adds a bold, red pop to your outdoors.
3/8″ Crushed Stone
(#89 Stone) A smaller crushed stone perfect for walkways and more decorative applications. Pathways will come to life with garden-like aesthetics and be comfortable under foot. Also suitable for various groundcover applications, as an underlayment for patio paver and turf projects, for playground surfacing and for filling gaps between larger stones.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Benton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Benton is a small but active community of 3,050 residents where steady, modest growth of 0.40% annually means ongoing home projects and gradual development rather than a building boom. That measured expansion translates into steady demand for landscaping and construction materials as homeowners upgrade driveways, refresh yards, and add small hardscape or drainage features. With a temperate local climate (hardiness zone 8b), about 228/year sunny days, and 33.90 inches of annual rainfall, material choices need to balance sun exposure, moisture management, and year-round usability. Quality bulk supplies—gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and stone—play distinct roles: providing drainage and erosion control during wet spells, offering stable bases for paths and patios in sunny, warmer months, and supplying organic covers for plantings in a climate that supports long growing seasons.Popular Projects in Benton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Benton Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Benton.
Start with the project purpose: compacted base for a driveway, drainage layer, or decorative topcoat. In Benton’s conditions, consider materials that shed water and resist frost heave; regional sourcing means texture and color will vary. Use our product descriptions and aggregate quiz, and contact our team if you need help matching material properties to your project.
Benton’s seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, local clay or loam soils, and drainage patterns are the biggest factors when selecting materials. Choose materials that improve drainage where soils are slow-draining and pick sizes that compact well for driveways or allow water infiltration for garden beds. Expect regional variations in color and grain due to local geology.
Late spring through early fall is generally best for deliveries and installation, when ground is drier and not frozen. Avoid scheduling heavy deliveries during wet periods or freeze-thaw windows to reduce compaction and access problems. If you need winter delivery, plan for possible delays and discuss site conditions with our team.
Measure length, width, and desired depth in feet to get cubic feet, divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards, then use our online calculator to convert cubic yards to tons. Different materials have different densities, so a calculator or our team can give a more precise tonnage estimate. If you prefer, provide your dimensions to our sales team and we can estimate for you.
Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are made by contracted dump truck fleets, usually tri-axle trucks, so you’ll need adequate access, a safe drop zone, and clearance from overhead wires. Rural roads, weight-restricted bridges, narrow driveways, or soft ground can limit where trucks can safely deliver; note the minimum order is 3 tons.
Costs vary by material type, seasonal demand, and distance from the supplier, but homeowners in West Missouri commonly see per-ton material prices and delivery fees that reflect regional supply and hauling distance. For an accurate estimate, use our online quote tool or request a quote for your zip code; we show transparent pricing and any delivery fees up front. For larger commercial orders, ask about bulk or contractor pricing.
Many local suppliers and haulers work with contractors or can recommend installers, but Hello Gravel primarily connects you to materials and delivery rather than performing installation. If you need installation, we can help you find local contractors or note your request so suppliers can reach out with referrals. Always confirm services and pricing directly with the installer before scheduling.
Because we source regionally, texture, color, and sizing can vary from photos or samples. These natural variations do not indicate poor quality but reflect local geology and supply. If color or specific texture matters for your project, add notes to your order and discuss options with our team before purchase.
Site access determines where trucks can safely dump material: steep driveways, soft shoulders, low-hanging wires, and tight turns can prevent trucks from reaching your preferred drop point. If access is limited, plan for a nearby safe drop zone or smaller offload methods, and tell us about restrictions when ordering so we can match the right truck and driver. The driver will assess safety on arrival and tailgate spreading may be done at their discretion.
Common search phrases include 'bulk pricing,' 'truckload gravel near me,' 'commercial pricing sand Benton MO,' and 'contractor discount gravel Benton.' When requesting a quote, mention your project size and whether you need recurring deliveries, as larger or repeat orders often qualify for better rates. Contact our sales team for volume pricing and to check availability in your zip code.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. 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. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
