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.
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.
1 1/2″ Crushed Gravel
Larger 1 ½” gravel perfect for french drains, drainage ditches, catch basins, and erosion control. Also used in base layers for road projects in areas with poor soil conditions, as backfill material, and for ground cover applications where smaller stones may wash away.
Drain Rock
A larger 1 ½” crushed gravel that allows for water flow and drainage, preventing accumulation and pooling when properly installed. Perfect for french drains and other drainage applications, around utility lines, septic systems, sump pump basins and drainage pits.
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 Gatesville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Gatesville, population 15,131, is experiencing steady growth of 0.70% annually, a pace that tends to create consistent, predictable demand for home improvement and small-scale construction rather than sudden booms. With a broader metro area of 2.5+ million residents supporting regional development, local homeowners commonly tackle driveway repairs, low-maintenance landscaping, and outdoor hardscape projects. Gatesville’s climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall—means materials must perform under strong sun yet handle periodic heavy showers: think UV-resistant surface layers, permeable mixes to manage runoff, and stable base materials for compaction. For these reasons, a range of bulk supplies—gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and blended aggregates—matter for erosion control, drainage, dust suppression, and long-term durability in local yards and small construction sites. The combination of bright sun, moderate rainfall, and local soil conditions creates practical requirements for material selection: products should resist UV breakdown, compact predictably, and support proper drainage to avoid pooling after storms. That relationship between climate and performance means homeowners should favor locally sourced materials matched to regional geology and delivered on a schedule that fits the project timeline. Hello Gravel helps by connecting Gatesville residents with vetted local suppliers and haulers, offering quantity guidance and delivery options so homeowners can choose mixes and finishes suited to the city’s weather and soil realities and reduce rework over time.Popular Projects in Gatesville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Gatesville Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Gatesville.
Choose materials based on the function you need: stability for driveways, a smooth base for patios, or decorative cover for beds. Gravel, sand, dirt, and stone are commonly used in combinations—select coarser, angular mixes for driveways and well-draining blends for areas that see water flow. Consider appearance, maintenance, and how the material compacts when making your choice.
Gatesville’s heat and occasional storms mean materials should resist dust, breakdown, and washout. Gravel, sand, dirt, and stone sourced locally will reflect regional geology, so choose blends with good drainage and stability and plan for occasional regrading after heavy storms. In hot, dry periods expect more dust and loosening of loose surfaces, so plan for maintenance.
Spring and fall are generally the easiest seasons for delivery and installation in Gatesville because temperatures are milder and storms are less frequent. Avoid scheduling big deliveries during the hottest summer afternoons or right before forecasted heavy rain, which can affect compaction and spreading. Plan ahead and use our delivery calendar to pick a date with available trucks.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of about 3 tons and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery fees vary by distance from the supplier, site access, and truck size; many areas qualify for free delivery but costs can be higher for rural or remote drops. Check your zip code during checkout for exact pricing or contact our team for a quote.
Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks that carry multiple tons per load, so larger orders often reduce per-ton cost by avoiding extra truck trips. Site access—driveway width, overhead clearance, turning radius, and surface strength—can limit truck size and affect delivery options or require a closer drop-off point. Share photos of your site or detailed directions at checkout so we can match the right truck and avoid unexpected fees.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if the site and load allow it, but this service is not guaranteed. Request spreading at checkout and understand the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. If you need full spreading, consider hiring a local contractor ahead of delivery.
Permit and HOA rules vary by property in Gatesville; some simple yard improvements may not need permits while changes to driveways, drainage, or curb cuts often do. Check with the City of Gatesville planning department and your HOA before ordering to confirm requirements. Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics but cannot determine local permitting rules for you.
Plan for proper slope, edge restraints, and drainage paths to protect against erosion during storms and heavy runoff. Using geotextile fabric, compacting base layers, and installing swales or simple French drains can help keep materials in place and protect landscaping. Consider local low spots and runoff paths when placing materials and add edging to prevent migration.
Use our material calculator and aggregate quiz to estimate quantities based on area and desired depth, and account for compaction and waste by rounding up 5-10%. Think about intended use (traffic vs. decorative), drainage needs, and long-term maintenance when selecting between gravel, sand, dirt, and stone blends. If you’re unsure, contact our sales team by phone or text for personalized guidance.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve Gatesville; exact partners depend on your zip code and delivery location. You can view available material options and delivery partners in checkout, and we recommend comparing profiles and reviews when selecting contractors for spreading or installation work.

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.
