Why San Antonio Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
San Antonio city population: 1.6+ million and a metro area population: 2.6+ million, combined with a steady growth rate of 1.80% annually, means ongoing demand for residential and infrastructure projects across the region. That steady expansion translates into new builds, driveway and patio upgrades, and frequent landscape renovations as neighborhoods grow and homeowners invest in outdoor living. Local climate and geography — 228 sunny days/year, annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and hardiness zone 8b — shape material choices: extended sun exposure accelerates breakdown of organic products while periodic heavy rains require aggregates and soils that promote drainage and resist erosion. Regional sourcing also matters because local geology affects texture and color. For San Antonio homeowners, quality bulk materials such as well-graded base mixes, drainage-friendly aggregates, and amended soils make projects more durable and reduce maintenance needs over time.Popular Projects in San Antonio This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - San Antonio Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in San Antonio.
Start by matching the material to the job: consider load (driveway vs garden path), drainage needs, desired look, and maintenance. In San Antonio, a balance between drainage and stability is important because of occasional heavy rain; consult our material calculator and aggregate quiz or contact our team for recommendations. We work with local suppliers so options reflect regional geology and availability.
For San Antonio's hot, humid weather and periodic heavy showers, choose materials that promote drainage and resist washout while providing stability for traffic. Permeable, coarse aggregates and properly compacted base layers are commonly recommended, and combining materials (for example a drainage layer beneath a top layer) can improve performance. Talk to our team about site slope and flood-prone areas to pick the right solution.
Use our online material calculator for precise results based on length, width, and desired depth; this is the easiest way to convert square feet and depth into tons or cubic yards. As a quick guide, small patio or planting projects often need a few cubic yards, while residential driveways typically require multiple cubic yards or several tons depending on size and depth. If you are unsure, send project dimensions to our team and we will help estimate quantities.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. You can choose a preferred delivery date at checkout and minimum orders start at 3 tons. Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks; tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion but is not guaranteed.
Suppliers in our network source materials regionally, so delivery coverage and fees depend on the supplier and distance from their pit. Many urban and suburban San Antonio zip codes are covered with no extra fee, but rural or long-haul drops can incur additional charges. Enter your zip code at checkout or request a quote to see specific delivery pricing for your address.
Clear a safe drop zone with good access for a tri-axle dump truck, remove low-hanging branches and obstacles, and mark the preferred placement area with stakes or cones. Check that driveways or approach roads can handle heavy trucks; soft or wet ground may limit where drivers can safely unload. If you need spreading, request it at checkout and be aware the driver will evaluate feasibility upon arrival.
Permit and HOA rules vary by neighborhood and project type; driveway widening, major grading, or changes to curb cuts often require city permits or HOA sign-off. Check San Antonio city codes and your HOA before ordering material, and contact our team if you need help understanding what details to provide for approvals. We do not issue permits, but we can help you plan material quantities and delivery timing around permitting requirements.
Rain and flash flooding can delay deliveries and make spreading or compaction unsafe, so plan around predicted wet periods and consider scheduling on drier days. High temperatures increase evaporative drying but have less direct effect on most aggregates; however, very hot days can affect labor availability and timing for installation. Choose a flexible delivery date and communicate with our team if weather could impact access or safety.
Ask about drainage performance, compaction and load-bearing properties, long-term maintenance, appearance and color variations, and local availability or lead times. Also inquire about recommended base preparation, any recommended depths, and performance in San Antonio weather (heavy rain, heat). Get a quote that includes delivery, minimum order, and any optional services like tailgate spreading.
Regional sourcing means texture, grain size, and color reflect local geology, so materials may vary from photos or samples. Natural aggregates like gravel, sand, dirt, and stone will show variation between loads and suppliers, and weather can also influence appearance on delivery. If color or size is critical, note preferences in your order notes and contact our team to discuss options or view local samples where available.
Contact our customer service as soon as possible to request a change or cancellation; it is easier to modify orders before processing and dispatch. Changes depend on supplier and trucking schedules, so while we will make our best effort, not all modifications are guaranteed. For fastest support call 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734.
Pricing varies by material, supplier, and delivery distance; our site shows transparent pricing and you can get a quote for your zip code. Minimum orders start at 3 tons, and larger projects often qualify for better per-ton pricing depending on supplier availability. For precise pricing and potential bulk discounts, request a quote through our checkout or contact our sales team.
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.
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.
