Materials Available for Delivery
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.
Walkway Gravel
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.
Mason Sand
A fine, clean sand for construction and masonry. Use it under pavers or turf, mix it into mortar or soil, or spread it across your lawn to smooth out bumps and low spots in your lawn.
Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Armstrong Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Armstrong is a very small community with a city population of 60 located within a broader West Texas metro area that exceeds 2.5+ million people. A steady growth rate of 0.70% annually points to gradual, ongoing development rather than a building boom—meaning homeowners can expect consistent demand for maintenance, landscaping, and modest new construction projects rather than rapid subdivision-scale growth. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, local projects need to balance sun exposure and periodic heavy moisture: reliable drainage, UV-resistant surfaces, and moisture-retaining mulches or soils matter here. For residents, that translates into practical choices across gravel, sand, dirt, mulch, and other aggregates to protect foundations, control erosion, and support drought-tolerant planting. Local climate and soil behavior in Armstrong create specific performance requirements for bulk materials. High solar exposure accelerates drying and surface breakdown, while intermittent heavy rains make well-graded aggregates and stable base materials important for erosion control and long-term settling. Homeowners should prioritize material gradation, compaction, and regional sourcing that reflects local geology to avoid premature failure or excessive maintenance. Hello Gravel helps by connecting customers to nearby suppliers and haulers, offering scheduling flexibility, quantity calculators, and local guidance so homeowners can select materials that perform well in Armstrong’s climate and deliver them on a timeline that fits the project.Popular Projects in Armstrong This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Armstrong Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Armstrong.
Start with the function you need: solid load-bearing surfaces for driveways, good drainage for paths, or soft ground cover for planting beds. Consider local climate and soil: West Texas tends to be dry and can have clay or sandy soils, so pick a material that handles heat, resists erosion, and provides the drainage you want. Ask suppliers about local variations and request photos or samples when possible.
Summer heat increases dust and can make some materials harder to compact, while infrequent heavy rains can cause washouts or delivery delays. Spring and fall are often best for installation because temperatures are milder and soils are more workable. Plan extra time in monsoon-prone periods and allow for a few extra business days for delivery scheduling.
Armstrong and the surrounding West Texas area often have clay-rich or sandy soils and experience wide temperature swings, which affect compaction and settling. Materials that offer good drainage and interlock well tend to perform better here, while very fine materials can blow or wash away more easily. Factor in freeze-thaw is minimal but thermal expansion and dryness matter for surface stability.
In smaller towns, pricing can include a base material charge plus delivery that reflects distance from local quarries or yards; remote or rural routes may have higher fees. Tailgate spreading or limited spreading is sometimes offered at the driver's discretion for an additional fee, but it is not guaranteed. Always confirm delivery fees, minimum order sizes, and any spreading charges before you finalize the purchase.
Measure the length and width of the area, decide on the desired depth, and calculate volume: area x depth gives cubic feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Materials have different weights, but as a rule of thumb one cubic yard commonly equals about 1.2 to 1.7 tons depending on material; contact our team or use an online calculator for an exact tonnage. Order slightly more (5-10%) to allow for compaction and grading.
Small towns and counties often have rules about driveway widths, curb cuts, and visible surface materials, and some HOAs may restrict colors or types of rock and mulch. Check with Armstrong city or county offices and your HOA (if applicable) before ordering to avoid rework or fines. If you need help, contact our team and we can advise on common local restrictions.
Areas farther from supply yards or across rough rural roads tend to incur higher delivery charges or have limited truck access, and very narrow or steep driveways may prevent standard dump trucks from reaching your drop point. Expect additional fees for long haul distances, remote properties, or complex offloading. Provide clear directions and photos of access when ordering to help us confirm availability and pricing.
Homeowners usually consider durability, drainage, and appearance: materials for driveway use should compact and resist movement, while materials for planting beds may prioritize soil integration and water retention. Think about maintenance needs—some materials need periodic topping or regrading—and choose a product that matches both the function and the look you want. If unsure, ask for a sample and installation tips for your specific use.
Standard delivery typically requires at least 2 business days; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST with an extra fee. Allow additional scheduling time for large orders, spreading services, or if your project requires unloading in a tight or hard-to-reach spot. Coordinate material delivery to match your installation schedule so you have the right equipment and crew ready when the truck arrives.
All outdoor materials will settle, shift, and need occasional topping or regrading, especially in areas with vehicle traffic or seasonal runoff. In West Texas, dust, sun bleaching, and erosion after heavy storms are common concerns, so pick a product that stands up to heat and offers good drainage. Regular checks, periodic replenishment, and proper initial installation (compaction, edging, and base preparation) extend the life of any material.
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.
