Compost
Premium compost packed with organic nutrients—perfect for revitalizing tired soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth. Ideal for mixing into garden beds, raised beds, and landscapes needing a natural boost.
Fill Dirt
Versatile, lower-grade soil commonly used for volume and elevation changes in various construction and landscaping projects. Great for leveling or grading ground, backfilling pools and filling ditches, and evening out low points or depressions on your property.
#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.
Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
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.

Why Fort Worth Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fort Worth homeowners live in a city of 870,524 within a metro area of 2.5+ million, and steady growth of 0.70% annually is driving more residential renovations, driveway work, and neighborhood infrastructure projects. That steady demand means more homeowners are investing in hardscapes, drainage upgrades, and low-maintenance yards. Fort Worth’s climate—about 228 sunny days a year and roughly 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates a dual need: materials that tolerate strong sun and heat while still managing periodic heavy rain. For projects from grading and base layers to mulch and top dressing, locally sourced bulk materials that balance durability, permeability, and aesthetics are increasingly important for long-term performance and lower maintenance.Popular Projects in Fort Worth This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fort Worth Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fort Worth.
Homeowners and contractors in Fort Worth commonly use a mix of materials such as gravel, sand, dirt, and stone depending on project needs. Choose based on function: drainage and base layers favor angular crushed materials, top layers for aesthetics favor rounded or decorative stone, and sand or dirt for leveling beds or planting. Regional sourcing means appearance and texture can vary, so ask for local samples or photos when possible.
Pick materials that balance drainage and stability: well-draining gravels and crushed stone perform well in hot, rainy conditions, while fine dirt and sand are better for planting or grading. Steeper areas and spots with runoff may need coarser aggregates and geotextile or additional compaction to prevent erosion. Expect some color and texture variation due to local geology.
Most homeowners schedule deliveries in spring and fall when temperatures are milder and rain is less frequent, though projects happen year-round in Fort Worth. Avoid scheduling during forecasted heavy rain or immediately after irrigation season to reduce mud and compaction issues. If you need material quickly, next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST, for an extra fee.
Delivery coverage varies by supplier, but many local haulers serve both Fort Worth neighborhoods and surrounding rural areas. Hello Gravel typically lists delivery availability by zip code; standard deliveries are scheduled 2+ business days out and minimum orders start at about 3 tons. Delivery fees depend on distance, access, and order size; free delivery may be available in some zones.
Yes. Fort Worth city codes and neighborhood HOAs may regulate driveway materials, curb cuts, drainage changes, and visible front-yard landscaping. Check with Fort Worth Code Compliance, your HOA, or local permitting office before starting work, especially for driveways, retaining walls, or changes that affect drainage. Permit needs and rules can vary widely by neighborhood.
A convenient rule: multiply the area (square feet) by desired depth (in inches) and divide by 324 to get cubic yards. For example, a single-car driveway 12 by 20 feet at 4 inches deep needs about 0.9 cubic yards, while a two-car driveway or thicker base will need 3 to 8 cubic yards. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator for your exact project and remember to add 5-10% for compaction and waste.
Plan a clear, level drop zone that a tri-axle dump truck can access, and remove cars, low branches, or obstacles beforehand. Note weight limits and neighborhood parking rules; protect paved surfaces if heavy trucks will sit on them, and mark utilities or irrigation lines. Tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout, but drivers decide onsite whether it can be done safely.
Contractors typically charge separately for materials, labor, equipment, compaction, and any grading or geotextile installation. DIY can save on labor costs but requires time, tools, and know-how for proper base preparation and compaction. Get multiple contractor quotes and compare them to material-only costs plus estimated labor if you plan to DIY.
Fort Worth area soils often include clay that holds water and can cause poor drainage and shifting if not addressed. In low spots or on slopes, use well-draining aggregates, install proper sub-base and compaction, and consider geotextile fabric to separate soil from aggregate. Good drainage planning and compaction increase longevity for driveways, paths, and erosion control.
Plan for standard delivery to take at least 2 business days after ordering; next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes—modifications are easier before dispatch but not always possible. If there are issues on delivery, reach out promptly so customer service can help resolve them according to our policies.
Yes, you can note color or texture preferences at checkout, but remember regional sourcing means materials will reflect local geology and exact matches cannot be guaranteed. Suppliers can often provide photos or similar product descriptions to help you choose. Ask about samples if color is critical to your project.
Measure your area, choose the right depth for the material's function, and use a calculator to estimate quantities in cubic yards or tons. Schedule delivery for a dry day if possible, confirm truck access, and add clear Order Notes about the drop location and any site constraints. If unsure, contact Hello Gravel's team for guidance or request a contractor quote for installation help.
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.
