#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
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.
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.
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.
3/8″ Natural Pea Gravel
Decorative and functional landscaping gravel. Small, naturally rounded stones create an aesthetic appeal when used for pathways, plant beds and garden borders. Also great for water features, rock gardens, dog runs and playground surfacing.

Why Bucklin Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bucklin is a small community of 740 residents located within a broader West Missouri region whose metro area includes 2.3+ million people. A modest growth rate of 0.40% annually points to steady, incremental development rather than a construction boom—so homeowner demand tends to be consistent, focused on repairs, yard upgrades, and smaller-scale new work rather than rapid large subdivisions. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 33.90 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b, the local climate supports year-round outdoor work but also requires attention to drainage, erosion control, and seasonal moisture swings. Homeowners and contractors in Bucklin commonly use a variety of bulk materials—soil and fill for grading, sand and aggregates for base layers, mulches and topdressing for plantings, and stone for paths and driveways. In this environment, quality bulk materials matter because they directly influence drainage performance, longevity, and how much follow-up maintenance a project will need.Popular Projects in Bucklin This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bucklin Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bucklin.
Customers in Bucklin commonly order a range of aggregates for outdoor projects, broadly described as gravel, sand, dirt, stone and similar mixes. These materials cover uses from basic yard grading and fill to driveways, drainage trenches, and landscape beds. Local availability reflects West Missouri geology, so texture and color can vary by supplier.
Bucklin’s seasonal rain and freeze-thaw cycles can cause settling, shifting, and washout if a material does not drain or compact well. Choose materials and installation methods that match local conditions (good drainage, proper compaction) and schedule work to avoid very wet or freezing ground. Your supplier or contractor can advise on mixes and prep that reduce winter damage.
In rural Bucklin markets, suppliers typically serve local zip codes and nearby towns within a practical driving radius; Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons. Longer haul deliveries can incur extra fees, and availability depends on local supplier routes. Standard delivery scheduling is 2+ business days, with a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee.
Late spring through early fall is often best for material deliveries in Bucklin because the ground is less likely to be frozen or saturated. Avoid scheduling during heavy spring runoff or immediately after prolonged rain to reduce the risk of rutting and poor compaction. Always check local weather and allow flexibility in scheduling to avoid delays.
Clear a stable access route and a safe drop location for the dump truck, and mark driveways, gates, utilities, and property lines before delivery. Remove obstacles like low branches and ensure a firm pad for truck staging; soft or muddy ground may require an alternative drop spot. If you want tailgate spreading, request it at checkout and note that drivers will assess feasibility on arrival.
Match the material to the function: consider load (vehicle traffic vs foot traffic), drainage needs, desired look, and local climate. Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator and aggregate quiz for a starting point, and call our sales team for guidance on mixes that balance durability and drainage. Contractors may specify compaction and gradation details for heavy-use areas.
Bucklin is a small city, but permit and HOA rules can still apply for driveway changes, curb cuts, or large grading projects. Check with Bucklin city hall, Linn County, and any homeowners association before ordering materials. Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics, but it does not replace required local approvals.
Snow, freeze-thaw, and spring runoff favor materials that drain well and compact to resist movement; poorly draining or lightweight materials can wash away or rut. For areas with snow, consider mixes that shed water and tolerate freeze cycles, and discuss salt or de-icing effects with your supplier. Local conditions should guide the final selection and installation method.
Contractors typically ask for project dimensions, desired material depth, load requirements, final grade or slope, access and drop location, and any permit constraints. They will also want to know the desired timeline, whether you want spreading or compaction, and if there are special site conditions like poor access or underground utilities. Clear answers help provide accurate pricing and smoother delivery.
Quantity calculators provide a reliable starting point, but actual needs depend on material density and job conditions; regional sourcing means weights can vary. Plan for about 5-10% extra to account for compaction, grading adjustments, and waste. If your project is near the 3-ton minimum, discuss options with our team to avoid underordering.
Pricing varies by material type, local supplier rates, and delivery distance; in West Missouri you will commonly see a range rather than a single price. Expect costs to reflect both the material and trucking; remote deliveries and special handling can increase the total. Use Hello Gravel’s checkout for transparent pricing for your zip code and contact our team for a tailored estimate.

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.

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!
