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.

Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Yoakum Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Yoakum has a city population of 8,650 and sits within a metro area of 2.4+ million, making it a small city at the center of a growing West Texas region. With an annual growth rate of 2.50% and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rain annually (hardiness zone 8b), local homeowners face a mix of sun exposure and periodic heavy rain that drives demand for durable outdoor materials. That steady growth fuels new driveways, patios, and landscaping work across residential neighborhoods and small commercial projects. Homeowners and contractors often choose gravel because it is cost-effective, low maintenance, and excels at drainage and erosion control—critical where local soils and stormwater can cause settling and runoff. Because regional geology affects texture and color, sourcing locally helps ensure material performance and a natural look that fits Yoakum properties.Popular Projects in Yoakum This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Yoakum gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Yoakum.
Delivered prices in Yoakum vary by material and order size, but expect typical ranges: crusher run or driveway-grade crushed limestone around $25 to $45 per ton delivered for small orders, decorative pea gravel or river rock commonly $40 to $90 per ton. Prices per cubic yard depend on density (roughly 1.3–1.6 tons per cubic yard; we use about 1.4 tons/yd3 for estimates). Final cost depends on material, distance, delivery type, and quantity, so check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote for an exact price.
For West Texas heat and dust around Yoakum, crushed limestone or crusher run are top choices because they compact well and resist shifting under traffic. Pea gravel and river rock look nice but tend to migrate and rut more in hot, dry, or clay soils unless stabilized. If you want a decorative top layer, consider a compactable base of crusher run with a thin decorative stone on top or a stabilizer product for loose gravels.
Using 1.4 tons per cubic yard as a rule of thumb: a 20x20 driveway (400 sq ft) requires about 3.5 tons at 2", 5.2 tons at 3", and 6.9 tons at 4". We recommend ordering 5–10% extra to account for compaction and spreading, so round up to about 4, 6, and 7 tons respectively. Remember Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons.
A 24x36 driveway (864 sq ft) will need roughly 7.5 tons at 2", 11.2 tons at 3", and 15.0 tons at 4" using the 1.4 tons/yd3 estimate. Allow an extra 5–10% for compaction and waste, so plan to order about 8, 12, and 16 tons respectively. For orders near our minimum or larger contractor volumes, check Hello Gravel for delivery options and any bulk pricing.
Yes, gravel can be a durable and economical long-term surface in Yoakum if it is installed and maintained properly. Good results depend on a compacted base, proper drainage, and periodic maintenance to regrade and add stone, especially because West Texas heat and occasional heavy rains can cause rutting and washout. If you prefer a low-maintenance, smooth surface or plan heavy truck traffic, asphalt or concrete may be better options.
Typical maintenance includes regrading and filling low spots every 1–3 years and adding a top-up of stone every 3–5 years depending on traffic. Expect to pay for material at delivered rates (commonly $25–$60 per ton depending on type) plus any labor; small regrading jobs by a local contractor often run a few hundred dollars, while major replenishment depends on tons needed. For dust control, products like magnesium chloride or polymer stabilizers are available, but costs vary widely—ask Hello Gravel or a local contractor for recommendations and local pricing.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost of the three but requires ongoing maintenance; typical lifespan with maintenance is 10–20 years for a well-built gravel driveway. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but generally last longer (asphalt 20–30 years, concrete 30+ years) and provide a smoother, low-maintenance surface that many buyers prefer. Gravel is economical for rural properties in Yoakum, but if you want minimal upkeep and higher curb appeal, asphalt or concrete may offer better long-term value.
Hello Gravel connects Yoakum customers with local quarries and landscape yards that deliver by dump truck; availability depends on your zip code and the material type. Many local suppliers offer delivery (standard delivery is typically 2+ business days through Hello Gravel, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST) and some contractors offer compaction or spreading services, but spreading is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. Add service requests in Order Notes and ask suppliers about compaction or local contractors when you get a quote.
A compacted base is strongly recommended for driveways on Yoakum's clay or sandy soils—build a 4–6" compacted base of crusher run or similar material, then add a 2–3" wearing course for best results. Geotextile fabric helps prevent stone migration into soft soils and improves longevity, especially where drainage is poor or the subgrade is weak. For loose decorative gravels, consider polymer stabilizers or gravel grids if you want less migration and dust in hot, dry West Texas conditions.
Gravel can slow erosion and improve surface drainage when combined with proper grading, terraces, swales, and geotextile fabric, making it a useful tool on modest slopes. For steep slopes, severe erosion, or complex drainage issues common after heavy Texas rains, professional grading and engineered drainage solutions are usually recommended to prevent washouts. If in doubt, get a site assessment—Hello Gravel can supply materials but a local engineer or contractor can advise on grading and drainage work.
Check your zip code on our site to see local materials and quotes, remember the minimum order is 3 tons, and schedule delivery at least 2+ business days out or choose next-day before noon CST for an extra fee. Add delivery notes for preferred drop location and color preferences, request tailgate spreading at checkout (drivers will assess safety and ability on arrival), and contact our team at 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734 if you need help choosing materials or estimating quantities.

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.
