A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.

Comes in a variety of colors that vary based on location and natural stone availability, so please be sure to specify if you have color preferences.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Why Dexter Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dexter has a city population of 3,470 and sits within a larger market serving a metro area population of 2.3+ million. With a modest annual growth rate of 0.40% annually, demand in the area tends to be steady and incremental rather than boom-driven — homeowners and local contractors often prioritize maintenance, targeted upgrades, and smaller-scale additions like new paths, drainage fixes, and refreshed planting beds. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 33.50 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 8b—means projects must balance sun exposure with periodic wet spells. That balance increases the need for a range of bulk materials: base mixes and denser aggregates where stability matters, permeable mixes for drainage, and quality topsoil or amendments for planting. Using regionally sourced bulk materials helps projects match local soil and grading conditions and reduces the chance of premature repairs. Dexter’s combination of sun, moderate rainfall, and zone 8b growing conditions creates specific performance needs for materials. Soils can firm up after sunny stretches, affecting compaction and the timing of deliveries and installation; conversely, the 33.50 inches of annual rainfall highlights the importance of drainage planning and materials that shed water effectively. Homeowners should choose aggregates and soils that suit both permeability and load-bearing needs, and plan deliveries around dry windows when possible. Hello Gravel helps by connecting you with local suppliers, offering clear calculators and scheduling, and presenting material options that reflect local geology so you can pick the right mix for Dexter’s conditions.Popular Projects in Dexter This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dexter Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Dexter.
Start with the function you need: drainage, stability, finish, or cost. Consider local performance — materials sourced nearby can behave differently in Dexter's climate — and pick a product that balances drainage and compaction. Use our aggregate quiz or contact the team for a recommendation that compares common options like gravel, sand, dirt, stone as a group for your specific use.
Dexter and the West New York area experience freeze-thaw cycles, seasonal snowfall, and wet springs that affect settling and drainage. Choose materials and installation depths that allow water to move away from structures and tolerate freeze-thaw movement. If you expect heavy snow or road salt exposure, tell us so we can suggest materials that perform well under those conditions.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the desired depth; then convert cubic feet to cubic yards and to tons. As a general guideline, expect roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the material and compaction. Use our online material calculator or contact our team with your measurements for a quick estimate.
Rural and small-town roads can have low bridges, narrow lanes, or weight limits that affect truck access. Before ordering, check driveway width, overhead clearance, and any local road weight limits; photos and site notes at checkout help our dispatchers plan the right truck. If access is tight, we can suggest alternative drop locations or smaller loads where available.
Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available if ordered before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons; delivery fees and lead times can vary by supplier and season, so check zip code 13634 for exact options. You can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout.
Delivery costs depend on distance from the supplier, truck type, and time of year, so prices vary by zip code and supplier. Many areas offer free delivery on orders above a threshold, while rural deliveries may include a small fee to cover longer hauls. The fastest way to know is to enter your zip code or request a quote in checkout.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site conditions and local regulations. Request the service at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility upon arrival. For precise grading or spreading, consider hiring a local contractor.
Permitting rules vary by municipality and project type; simple deliveries usually do not need a permit, but driveway replacements, curb cuts, and major grading often do. Check with Dexter town offices or the county highway department before starting work, and confirm any HOA requirements if applicable. If you need help understanding local rules, our team can point you to the right local contacts.
Suppliers and haulers are busiest in spring and summer when landscaping and construction peak, and again in early fall for site prep. Plan ahead for large projects and place orders early to secure preferred delivery dates. Off-season deliveries are often easier to schedule but may be affected by winter weather.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture, color, and grain size can vary based on local geology, so materials may look different than photos. We recommend adding color or texture notes at checkout if you have strong preferences and contacting customer service with photos for guidance. Small natural variation is normal and expected.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.

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.
