Why Benavides Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Benavides is a small but active community with a population of 1,670, located within a broader metro region of 2.5+ million people. A steady growth rate of 0.70% annually means demand for home improvements, maintenance, and incremental new construction is likely to continue rather than spike suddenly. With 228 sunny days per year and moderate annual rainfall of 34.80 inches in hardiness zone 8b, projects in and around Benavides must balance prolonged sun exposure with periodic heavy rain. That combination favors materials that resist UV degradation, hold up under repeated wet-dry cycles, and help manage moisture for plants and soil stability. Homeowners and contractors therefore benefit from sourcing quality bulk materials — such as soil mixes, sands, aggregates, and mulches — that are appropriate for local conditions and sized to account for compaction and settling over time.Popular Projects in Benavides This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Benavides Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Benavides.
For driveways and paths in Benavides, homeowners commonly choose from a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, stone depending on desired look, budget, and traffic. For vehicle areas you want a material that compacts well and sheds water; for footpaths lighter, decorative mixes work fine. Talk to a local supplier to match a material to load requirements and local soil.
Benavides’ heat and sun can increase dust, cause binders to break down, and speed settling or washout during rare heavy rains. Choose materials and preparation that resist dust and movement, such as properly compacted bases and adequate drainage. Plan for occasional maintenance like top-ups and regrading in hotter months.
Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; deliveries to rural or hard-to-access sites may have additional charges or scheduling constraints. Always confirm access, drop location, and any fees when you get a quote.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide the depth you need, then use a material calculator or ask our team to convert the volume to tons. As a rough guide, many aggregates fall in the range of about 1.2 to 1.7 tons per cubic yard depending on material and moisture, so round up 5-10% for compaction and waste. Use our online calculator or call for help to avoid underordering.
Spring and fall are usually best to avoid Benavides’ summer heat and the risk of seasonal storms. Schedule deliveries for cooler parts of the day if ordering in summer, and avoid times when heavy rains or storms are likely. Plan projects with some weather flexibility and book delivery dates in advance.
Soil type and slope determine whether you need extra base preparation, geotextile fabric, or heavier aggregate to prevent erosion and settling. In areas with loose or sandy soils, a stable base and proper drainage help materials perform longer. Ask suppliers about local experience and recommendations for the specific terrain around your property.
Most suppliers and haulers primarily provide delivery; drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion but that service is not guaranteed. For full spreading, grading, or installation you should hire a contractor who offers those services. Request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival.
Common projects include driveways, walkways, patios, garden beds, backfill, and erosion control—each needs different depths and material types. Small paths or garden top-ups often use a few tons, a typical single-car driveway may need roughly 8 to 30 tons depending on size and depth, and larger jobs require proportionally more. Use our material calculator or contact our team for a project-specific estimate.
Yes—city, county, or HOA rules can govern driveway surfacing, setbacks, drainage, and visible materials. Check local ordinances and your HOA covenants before ordering so your material choice meets permit, curb, and aesthetic requirements. If in doubt, contact city planning or your HOA for guidance before scheduling delivery.
The best way is to request a quote with your zip code, delivery address, project size, and preferred delivery date so suppliers can account for distance and access. Ask about standard vs expedited delivery, any remote-location fees, and whether tailgate spreading is available. Compare quotes and confirm all fees before checkout to avoid surprises.
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.
