Why Houston Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a city population of 2.7+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, Houston is a large, steadily expanding region with a growth rate of 0.70% annually. That steady growth keeps demand for home improvements, infill construction, and landscaping projects consistent rather than spiking, so homeowners and contractors need reliable access to bulk materials on predictable schedules. Houston's hardiness zone 8b, about 228 sunny days per year, and roughly 34.25 inches of annual rainfall create a climate that favors year‑round outdoor work but also requires materials that handle intense sun and periodic heavy rain. In practice that means choosing supplies that support drainage, resist UV degradation, and tolerate wet‑dry cycles—everything from soils and sands for grading and fill to stone, mulch, and blended aggregates for hardscapes and planting beds. Quality, regionally sourced bulk materials help projects last longer and perform better in these local conditions.Popular Projects in Houston This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Houston Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Houston.
Prices vary by material, distance, and load size, but expect broad ranges rather than exact quotes; many common aggregates fall roughly in the range of $15 to $60 per ton or $10 to $45 per cubic yard. Final price depends on the type of material, local availability, delivery distance, site access, and any extra services like next-day delivery or tailgate spreading. Use our online calculator or get a quote for a precise estimate for your zip code.
Houston has hot, humid summers and a hurricane season that can bring heavy rain, so many homeowners prefer scheduling major installs in late fall through early spring when weather is milder. Deliveries are available year-round, but expect more frequent delays from heavy rain or storms between late spring and early fall. Plan with weather buffers and confirm timelines with suppliers during hurricane season.
Choose materials that promote drainage and hold up to heat and moisture; options from our network of local suppliers typically include combinations of base and surface products to manage runoff and stability. When comparing options, consider permeability, compaction needs, and how the material performs in Houston's wet summers and warm winters—our team can help match your project to appropriate choices from gravel, sand, dirt, stone and other aggregates. Local sourcing also means texture and color may vary from photos, so ask about samples or delivery notes.
Hello Gravel serves Houston and surrounding suburbs subject to supplier coverage by zip code; our minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is usually by tri-axle dump truck. Many areas qualify for free standard delivery, but remote locations, tight access, or next-day requests can incur additional fees. Check your zip code at checkout to see available suppliers, exact delivery pricing, and any access requirements.
Plan for lead times, potential stockouts, and weather-related delays—demand can spike before and after storm seasons and during busy landscaping months. Verify site access for dump trucks, staging space for materials, any permits or HOA restrictions, and confirm the supplier's ability to meet your requested delivery window. Ordering a little extra to allow for compaction, grading, or waste helps avoid schedule interruptions.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area to find cubic yards: multiply length (ft) by width (ft) by depth (in), then divide by 324 to get cubic yards. Convert cubic yards to tons using the material's approximate density (many aggregates range roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard), and add 5% to 10% extra for compaction and waste. Use our material calculator or text our team with your dimensions for help.
Standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. We confirm scheduling with the local supplier and contracted hauler after you place an order, but do not guarantee exact arrival times due to traffic, weather, or routing. Tailgate spreading can be requested at checkout, but it is performed at the driver's discretion and is not guaranteed.
Take clear photos of the material and delivery location and contact our customer service promptly so we can review the issue with the supplier and hauler. Natural materials vary by region, so slight differences in color or texture are common; we will work to resolve concerns according to our policies and can discuss options if the material is substantially different or there was a delivery mistake.
Installation costs vary widely by project scope, material choice, and site conditions; small landscaping installs may be billed by the hour or job, while driveways and patios are often priced per square foot or as lump-sum contracts. Expect contractor labor rates and total project prices to depend on access, grading needs, drainage work, and local demand—get multiple bids and ask contractors for itemized estimates that separate materials and labor. Our team can provide material cost estimates so you can compare overall project quotes more easily.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
