Why Buffalo Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Buffalo has a city population of 7,160 and sits within a broader metro area of 2.3+ million residents. A steady growth rate of 0.40% annually points to gradual, predictable demand for housing and small-scale development rather than boom-level construction—meaning homeowners can expect consistent need for repairs, upgrades, and outdoor projects over time. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 33.90 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—supports year-round landscaping and many construction activities. Those conditions favor materials that balance drainage and stability: well-graded aggregates for base layers, reliable topsoils for planting beds, and durable surfacing for driveways and paths. Homeowner trends here lean toward outdoor living upgrades, erosion control, and low-maintenance yards, so access to a range of bulk materials (gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, stone, and more) matters for durable, low-maintenance results that match local weather patterns and seasonal needs.Popular Projects in Buffalo This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Buffalo Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Buffalo.
Start by deciding function: structural base or decorative top layer. For load-bearing areas pick materials that compact well and drain (look for mixes designed for driveways), and for surface layers choose texture and appearance that fit your home. Consider expected traffic, slope, and frost in West Missouri; contractors often use a compactable base with a coarser top layer for durability.
Think about drainage, weed control, and appearance. Use materials that help water move away from plant roots and that match your design goals, and consider adding a fabric or barrier for extra weed suppression. Local conditions in Buffalo mean materials may vary in color and texture, so order a small test load if appearance is important.
Buffalo's West Missouri climate has freeze-thaw cycles, heavy spring rains, and hot, humid summers, which can affect settling and drainage. Choose materials that drain well and resist frost heave for driveways and foundations, and plan for erosion control on slopes. Seasonal timing matters: install base layers in dry conditions and avoid deliveries during deep freeze or muddy periods when possible.
Measure the length, width, and depth of the area to get cubic yards, then use a materials calculator to convert cubic yards to tons—different materials have different weights. As a general range, many aggregates fall between about 1.2 and 1.6 tons per cubic yard, but use our calculator or contact our team for a precise estimate. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so plan accordingly.
We deliver materials for driveways, patios, walkways, drainage swales, retaining wall backfill, erosion control, and landscape beds, among other jobs. Both DIY homeowners and contractors use our service for small residential projects and larger site work. If your project needs a specific performance (drainage, compaction, or decorative look), our team can recommend suitable aggregate types.
Standard delivery is available in 2+ business days with no extra fee, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. You choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and receive confirmation when the order is processed. Deliveries arrive by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle), and drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion.
Our minimum order is 3 tons. Delivery trucks need reasonable access—clearance for height and width, firm ground for truck weight, and room to maneuver; overhead wires, low branches, or narrow drives can block delivery. If street blocking or permits are required in your neighborhood, arrange those ahead of time and note any access constraints in the Order Notes.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, color, texture, and particle shape reflect local geology and can vary. Photos are illustrative; we cannot guarantee an exact match to images. If appearance is important, add color preferences in Order Notes or request a small test delivery before committing to a full load.
Yes. Use our online material calculator and aggregate quiz for a recommended starting point, and contact our sales team for personalized guidance. We can suggest materials that balance drainage, compaction, and aesthetics for projects in Buffalo and help convert your measurements into a recommended tonnage.
Contractors typically ask about bulk pricing tiers, delivery windows for large orders, staging and drop zones, and how multiple deliveries will be scheduled. Confirm access and site constraints up front so suppliers can quote appropriate fees, and request delivery confirmations to coordinate crews. Large or phased jobs may require additional coordination and fees for tight delivery windows.
Contact our customer service team as soon as possible—changes are easier before the order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications or cancellations may not be possible once the supplier and truck are scheduled. Check our order confirmation email for contact info and timing details.
Clear the drop zone of obstacles and mark any hidden hazards like septic lines, irrigation, or buried utilities. Protect nearby plants, vehicles, and structures, and have someone onsite to direct the driver if possible. If you want tailgate spreading requested, note it at checkout and be aware the driver will assess whether spreading can be done safely on arrival.
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.
