Why Bandera Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bandera has a city population of 9,610 and sits within a larger West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, homeowners and small contractors in Bandera are increasingly updating driveways, ranch roads, and landscape beds. The local climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b—creates a need for materials that manage both sun-driven surface drying and seasonal runoff. Quality gravel is a go-to because it improves drainage, reduces mud on dirt roads, and provides a low-maintenance, durable surface that fits Bandera’s mix of rural properties and suburban infill projects. Gravel suited for Bandera typically has angular particles and a range of sizes that lock together for stability while allowing water to pass through. This combination helps prevent erosion during heavy rains and resists rutting under the area’s frequent sun and dry spells. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers who source regionally appropriate aggregates, coordinates delivery via professional dump trucks, and offers scheduling options with standard 2+ business days and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST. We handle order details, delivery logistics, and give simple guidance so your gravel arrives ready for installation.Popular Projects in Bandera This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bandera gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bandera.
Natural rounded gravel or river rock is often a bit cheaper than crushed stone because it requires less processing, but prices depend on local supply. In Bandera and the Texas Hill Country, crushed limestone is very common and competitively priced thanks to nearby quarries, so differences may be small. Choose based on function: crushed stone locks together for driveways and paths, while rounded gravel is better for decorative uses.
Crushed limestone or crusher-run (a mix of stone and fines) is usually the most cost-effective driveway material in Bandera because local quarries supply it. It compacts well and provides a stable surface for vehicles, which can save money on maintenance. If you want a cheaper visual option, local river rock can be less expensive but may shift more over time.
For 1,000 sq ft: at 2 inches deep you need about 6.2 cubic yards or roughly 9 tons; at 4 inches deep you need about 12.3 cubic yards or roughly 17 tons (using 1 cu yd ≈ 1.4 tons). Always round up a little to account for compaction and grading. Contact Hello Gravel to get a precise quote and delivery minimum (we require 3 tons).
Cost varies with width, depth, and material. For example, a 200 ft by 10 ft driveway (2,000 sq ft) at 4 inches needs about 24.7 cubic yards or ~35 tons of gravel; at $20–$40 per ton delivered, material costs would be roughly $700–$1,400. Add grading, compaction, and any hauling or spreader fees; get a tailored estimate from Hello Gravel for exact pricing and delivery options.
A tri-axle dump truck commonly carries about 10–14 cubic yards (roughly 14–20 tons) of gravel; cost depends on material and distance. Typical delivered prices for a full truck can range widely (for example, several hundred to over a thousand dollars) depending on type of gravel and local haul fees. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers and get a firm delivered price for the truck size you need.
A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft. At 4 inches deep you need about 4.9 cubic yards or roughly 7 tons of gravel, and at $20–$40 per ton the material cost would be about $140–$280. Factor in delivery (Hello Gravel minimum 3 tons), compaction, and any spreading labor for a complete price.
Two inches is only enough as a surface/topcoat over a well-compacted base; it is not adequate as the sole thickness for a driveway. For most residential driveways in Bandera you should plan on a 4–6 inch compacted base of crushed stone or crusher-run, with a 1–2 inch top layer if desired. The Hill Country soils and occasional heavy rainfall make a thicker, compacted base more durable.
Not necessarily — Bandera benefits from nearby limestone sources in the Texas Hill Country, which can keep material costs competitive. However, price depends on the specific gravel type, seasonal demand, and delivery distance; remote or specialty materials cost more. Check your zip code on Hello Gravel to see local supplier pricing and available delivery options.
'Bandera' means 'flag' in Spanish, reflecting local history. More practically, Bandera sits in the Texas Hill Country where limestone and river rock are common, so most local gravel offerings will reflect that geology and have the look and performance of limestone or native river stones. If you want a different appearance, note preferences in Order Notes when you check out.
Assuming a $70,000 salary and a standard 2,080-hour work year, the gross hourly rate is about $33.65. If a 10-ton delivery costs about $30 per ton ($300 total), that would be roughly 9 hours of gross work to cover the material cost; this ignores taxes and other expenses. Use this as a rough affordability check and request a precise Hello Gravel quote for exact pricing.
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.
