Why Reno Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Reno has a city population of 1.0+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rainfall, homeowners and local builders balance long, sunny stretches with periodic wet seasons. That mix, combined with West Texas geography and ongoing development, creates steady demand for durable aggregates for new construction, driveways, drainage solutions, and low-water landscaping. Homeowners look for quality gravel because it provides reliable drainage, resists erosion on sloped lots, creates stable bases for pavers and walkways, and reduces long-term maintenance in a climate that alternates between intense sun and occasional heavy rains. Gravel is well suited to Reno’s environment: its permeable structure helps shed water during the 34.25-inch rainy periods while compacted, angular mixes lock together for long-lasting driveways and pathways under 228 sunny days per year. Lighter, crushed gravel reflects heat and compacts for stability, while round rock is best for decorative beds and slower drainage features. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and professional dump-truck delivery so you get regionally sourced gravel that matches local soils and sun exposure. We require a 3-ton minimum, offer scheduled delivery (standard in 2+ business days, next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for a fee), and provide tools and guidance to calculate exactly how much gravel you need.Popular Projects in Reno This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Reno gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Reno.
'Texas black' is a regional term for dark-colored decorative gravel used in landscaping; its exact composition varies by supplier and can be crushed basalt, dark limestone, or other locally available stone. In Reno and West Texas you may find darker gravels carried by local suppliers, but color and texture will reflect local geology, so expect some variation from photos. You can add color preferences in Order Notes at checkout and our team will try to match your request when connecting you with a local supplier.
River rock is rounded, larger stones typically 1/2" to several inches in size and is used for dry creek beds, drainage, and decorative edging; pea gravel is small (about 1/8" to 3/8"), smooth, and used for patios, walkways, and play areas. In Reno's climate, river rock handles runoff and erosion well, while pea gravel is better for walking surfaces but can shift more on slopes or high-traffic areas.
A typical tri-axle dump truck holds about 10 to 12 tons of gravel. Depending on material type and local supply, expect a delivered truckload in the Reno/West Texas area to often fall roughly between $300 and $700, though specific prices vary by gravel type, availability, and delivery distance; Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and shows transparent pricing during checkout.
Gravel alone does not turn into concrete, but you can get a hard, stable surface by using crushed stone with a stabilizer (polymeric binder) or by mixing gravel with a cement binder and compacting it. For driveways or permanent patios in Reno's climate, contractors often recommend crushed limestone or crusher-run base compacted and optionally stabilized with a polymer or cement for long-term stability.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic feet. That will cover about 6 square feet at 1 inch depth, about 3 square feet at 2 inches, and about 2 square feet at 3 inches; adjust upward for settling and uneven ground when ordering for Reno projects.
Typical depths are 2 to 3 inches for decorative ground cover, 3 to 4 inches for footpaths and patios, and 6 to 8 inches for driveways (with a compacted base). In Reno and West Texas, allow extra depth where drainage is poor or soils are clayey, and compact in layers to reduce movement during heavy summer storms.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, busy driveways, wheelchair ramps, or areas where it will be frequently displaced by foot or vehicle traffic, since it shifts easily. For dog runs, steep grades, or high-traffic driveways in Reno, choose crushed stone with angular particles or stabilized systems for better permanence.
Measure the area in square feet and decide the desired depth in inches, then multiply area by depth (in feet) to get cubic feet: area * (depth/12). Divide by 27 to get cubic yards, and note that one cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.2 to 1.6 tons depending on type; add 5-10% for compaction and waste when ordering in Reno.
Hello Gravel delivers by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle) to Reno with options for standard or next-day delivery where available; tailgate spreading can sometimes be done at the driver's discretion if requested at checkout. Note that drivers will assess access, overhead clearance, and site conditions on arrival, and spreading is not guaranteed, so plan for shovels or hire local labor if precise placement is needed.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, color, size, and texture will reflect local geology and may differ from photos. If color or size is important for your Reno project, include details in Order Notes and contact our team for guidance; we will do our best to match your preferences but cannot guarantee an exact match.
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.
