Materials that compact well and drain properly will require less frequent replenishing and perform better under occasional storms. Consider ground covers, edging, and weed barriers to reduce maintenance in the long term.

Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the depth you want, then convert to cubic yards: (length(ft) x width(ft) x depth(in)/12) /27. Different materials have different densities, so convert cubic yards to tons using our online calculator or ask our sales team for help. Typical depths: 2-3 inches for decorative coverage and 4-6 inches for drive surfaces, but your project needs may vary.

Most orders start at a 3-ton minimum with Hello Gravel.

Permits or regulations may apply for some projects such as driveway changes, large grading work, or commercial jobs; homeowners associations can also have material and appearance rules. Hello Gravel does not handle permits, so check with the City of North Hobbs, Lea County, or your HOA before starting large projects.

Initial cost and long-term upkeep vary: some materials are cheaper up-front but need more frequent topping up, while others cost more initially but require less maintenance. Consider expected foot or vehicle traffic, drainage needs, and whether you’ll perform regular maintenance like raking, replenishing, or weed control. Balancing installation cost against maintenance time and replacement frequency will help you choose the most cost-effective material over the long run.

Both have roles: materials that allow good drainage are better for preventing runoff and erosion, while finer materials may be easier to level for bedding or paver bases. For drainage and low-maintenance surfaces choose a coarser, compactable material; for leveling or as a bedding layer use finer material. Often a combination of layers performs best for landscaping and drainage tasks.

Dump trucks typically unload at the most accessible, safe spot on your property; drivers will assess access, overhead obstructions, and ground conditions upon arrival. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout, but it is not guaranteed and depends on safety and access. If you have a preferred drop location, add instructions in Order Notes and our team will communicate them to the driver.

Materials are regionally sourced, so color, texture, and grain size can vary with local geology and weathering. Photos and samples are a guide, not an exact match, so add color or texture preferences in Order Notes if you have a specific look in mind. If the delivered material differs significantly from your expectations, contact our customer service for assistance and next steps.
