Gravel: Built For Semi-Arid Drainage • Choose Your Gravel Delivery Date
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.
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.

Why Richwood Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Richwood, with a city population of 993,588, sits in a steadily growing West Texas region expanding at about 0.40% annually. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with roughly 225 sunny days per year and 34.40 inches of annual rainfall—creates a blend of intense sun and intermittent heavy showers that shapes outdoor projects. That mix drives demand for durable, well‑draining aggregates: homeowners need gravel that withstands prolonged sun exposure, supports vehicle loads for driveways, and moves stormwater away from foundations. Typical uses in Richwood include xeriscaped yards, drainage swales, driveways, and base layers for pavers. Because materials reflect local geology, homeowners look for consistent texture and sizing from suppliers so projects install cleanly and perform reliably over time. Gravel is a practical fit for Richwood’s environment: it promotes rapid infiltration during heavy downpours, reduces surface erosion on slopes, and resists breakdown under persistent sun in zone 8b. Selecting locally sourced gravel helps match native soil behavior and reduces settling or migration after installation. Hello Gravel simplifies the process by connecting you to vetted local suppliers and haulers, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery windows, and guidance to pick the right grade for your project. Request tailgate spreading at checkout and drivers will assess feasibility upon arrival.Popular Projects in Richwood This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Richwood gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Richwood.
River gravel is rounded, smooth stones usually 1/2" to 2" and used for decoration and drainage. Pea gravel is small, smooth, pea-sized stones (about 1/8" to 3/8") ideal for pathways and play areas but not great for heavy loads. Crushed gravel is mechanically broken rock with angular edges that lock together, making it better for driveways and areas that need compaction.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic feet. At 1" depth it covers about 6 sq ft, at 2" depth about 3 sq ft, and at 3" depth about 2 sq ft. For Richwood projects, pick the depth based on use: 1" for decorative mulch, 2" for walkways, and 3" or more for a stable base.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, vehicle driveways, or any area where the stone must stay tightly in place, because the round pieces shift and migrate. It is also a poor choice for areas where small stones can be tracked into the house or where bare feet will be common. For driveways or steep areas in Richwood's occasional heavy rains or wind, choose crushed stone or use a stabilizing grid.
Yes, gravel can be a good, cost-effective driveway material in Richwood if you pick the right type. Use angular crushed stone for the base and surface so it compacts and resists migration; pea gravel is not recommended for regular vehicle traffic. Plan for a thicker base (4"+ compacted) and periodic maintenance to deal with wind and runoff that are common in West Texas.
Not necessarily. Hello Gravel sources materials locally, so appearance, color, and texture will reflect West Texas geology and regional suppliers. We allow order notes for color preference and our team can advise on local samples, but natural variation is normal and expected.
Hello Gravel delivers nationwide through local suppliers and haulers; check your zip code for availability in Richwood. Minimum order is 3 tons, standard delivery typically takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Drivers are contracted haulers in tri-axle dump trucks and tailgate spreading may be available at their discretion—request it at checkout but note there are no guarantees.
Use edging (metal, stone, timber, or concrete) to create a physical barrier that keeps gravel contained. Install a compacted base and consider a geotextile fabric or a stabilizing grid under the gravel to reduce migration, especially with West Texas wind and occasional heavy rain. Regular raking and adding fresh stone every few years will also keep edges tidy.
Measure the area in square feet and multiply by desired depth (in feet) to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards; one cubic yard of gravel typically weighs about 1.3 to 1.5 tons depending on type. For example, a 10' x 10' patio at 3" depth needs about 0.83 cubic yards, roughly 1.1 to 1.3 tons. Local soil conditions in Richwood may require a thicker base, so contact our team for help calculating quantities and ordering the minimum 3-ton delivery if needed.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
