Topsoil
High-grade soil enriched with organic matter. Perfect for landscaping, lawn establishment and repair, and for improving existing soil.
Fulfillment:
Should never be fulfilled with material that does not include an organic component, though organic components should be small.
2-10% organic is ideal
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
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.
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.

Why Brownsville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Brownsville homeowners are part of a growing community—city population of 195,244 and a metro area population of 430,000—that is expanding at a steady 0.60% annually. That steady growth tends to create reliable, sustained demand for construction, landscaping, and maintenance projects rather than sudden booms, so homeowners and contractors often plan phased upgrades, drainage improvements, and new outdoor spaces. Brownsville's subtropical Gulf Coast setting, with 265 sunny days annually, an annual rainfall of 30.00 inches, and hardiness zone 10b, shapes local material needs: products must tolerate strong sun and occasional heavy rains, resist salt exposure near the coast, and support heat-tolerant plantings. For practical projects this means attention to proper grading, drainage-ready aggregates, moisture-retentive mulches, and soils formulated to work with local vegetation—quality bulk materials directly affect longevity, performance, and maintenance costs.Popular Projects in Brownsville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Brownsville Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Brownsville.
Brownsville's coastal, warm climate and seasonal heavy rains can increase groundwater and create low-lying flood-prone spots. Choose materials and installation methods that improve drainage and resist washout, for example using well-draining aggregates and proper base layers. Regional sourcing means gravel, sand, dirt, stone may vary in texture and performance, so factor local conditions into your choice and plan for erosion control.
Pick materials and builds that promote draining and stability in wet conditions, such as compactable bases topped with coarse blends. Consider edging, geotextile fabric, and a stable subbase to reduce shifting during heavy rain. When comparing options, keep gravel, sand, dirt, stone as a group in mind and choose the combination that balances appearance, drainage, and maintenance needs.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area to calculate volume in cubic feet, then convert to cubic yards by dividing by 27. Different materials weigh differently, so convert cubic yards to tons only if you know the material density or use Hello Gravel's material calculator to get an accurate estimate. Always order a little extra to allow for compaction and waste.
Permit needs vary by project size and location; check Brownsville city codes, county regulations, and any HOA rules before starting. Common site-prep steps include utility locates, grading for drainage, compaction of the subbase, and checking for easements or floodplain restrictions. Planning these steps helps your chosen mix of gravel, sand, dirt, stone perform as intended.
Standard delivery is usually available in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery offered for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Hello Gravel coordinates local suppliers and delivers by dump truck (typically tri-axle) with a minimum order size of 3 tons, and you can select your preferred date at checkout. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion but is not guaranteed.
Yes; delivery can be affected by narrow streets, low overhead wires, gated communities, soft lawns, and local weight limits. Communicate access issues and preferred drop spots in your order notes, and clear the area to help drivers offload safely. Suppliers will work with you, but some locations may require a longer carry distance or alternate delivery method.
Hello Gravel's platform generally has a 3-ton minimum order, but small-load or same-day options may be available through some local suppliers for an extra fee depending on stock and truck availability. Check your zip code and request expedited delivery during checkout or contact our team to see if same-day service is possible. Availability varies by supplier and day, so earlier requests improve the chance of fulfillment.
Materials that shed water and resist movement typically need less frequent upkeep in a rainy, coastal climate, while finer materials can wash out or compact and require periodic replenishing or regrading. Organic or loose surface products may need replacement more often than mineral aggregates. Choosing the right mix of gravel, sand, dirt, stone and proper installation will reduce long-term maintenance.
Low-lying areas, seasonal heavy rain, and shallow groundwater can cause poor natural drainage in parts of Brownsville, which affects how quickly surfaces dry and how materials settle. You may need extra grading, drainage channels, a compacted subbase, or geotextile separation to prevent settling and contamination between soil and your chosen aggregates. Always consider site drainage before selecting gravel, sand, dirt, stone for a project.
Delivery pricing depends on order size, delivery distance, material type, truck access, and service speed (standard vs next-day), and some jobs may include flat fees or extra charges for long carries or limited access. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing at checkout after you enter your zip code and material choice, and you can request quotes for larger or complex jobs. Contact customer service for a detailed estimate if you have unusual access or spreading needs.
Avoid the wettest periods when possible since heavy rain can delay delivery, complicate spreading, and cause materials to sink or wash away before they settle. Demand for materials also rises in drier months, so plan ahead and reserve delivery dates during peak seasons. Schedule installations for drier stretches and confirm delivery windows to reduce weather-related disruptions.
Clear vegetation, vehicles, and obstacles from the driveway and designated drop area, and mark utilities or fragile landscaping to avoid accidental damage. Provide clear instructions in your order notes about the preferred drop spot, access gates, or any height/width restrictions, and be on-site or give a local contact number so drivers can coordinate. These steps help ensure a quick, safe delivery of gravel, sand, dirt, stone.
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.
