Gravel: Built For West Texas Drainage • Same-Day Gravel Delivery When Available
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 Lasara Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lasara, a West Texas town of 606 residents, sits in a region that’s slowly growing—about 0.40% annually—while balancing an arid-to-semi-arid landscape with significant sun and occasional rain. With 228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and placement in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners here need landscaping and site materials that stand up to both heat and episodic wet periods. That combination drives steady local demand for reliable aggregates: gravel for driveways, pathways, erosion control, and drainage projects. For many Lasara homeowners, buying quality gravel means fewer maintenance headaches, better water management during storms, and surfaces that perform under intense sun and seasonal temperature swings. Gravel is especially well suited to Lasara’s environment because it promotes rapid drainage, resists rutting under dry heat, and integrates well with native soils. Local suppliers source gravel that reflects West Texas geology, so color and texture vary by supplier; Hello Gravel simplifies selection by connecting you to those local sources, offering clear pricing, scheduled dump-truck delivery, and minimum orders starting at 3 tons. We handle coordination so homeowners get the right gravel on-site with transparent timing and local expertise.Popular Projects in Lasara This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lasara gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lasara.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and uses local haulers with dump trucks. Many nearby deliveries are free, but rural trips to Lasara can incur a distance surcharge; customers commonly see fees ranging from a small flat charge up to around $50-$150 depending on supplier distance and road access. You will see exact fees at checkout before you pay, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Contractors in West Texas commonly recommend angular crushed stone (for example 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed granite) for driveways because the particles lock together and compact well. Decomposed granite or caliche can work for low-traffic areas but may dust and need more upkeep in the hot climate, while smooth river rock and pea gravel are less stable for drive lanes. Choose a coarser base (3/4" minus) with a finer topcoat for the best durability.
Hot, dry conditions increase dust, reduce natural binding from moisture, and can accelerate raveling, so choose angular, well-graded mixes with some fines for interlock. Load-bearing capacity depends on proper depth and compaction; in dry climates you may need a thicker, well-compacted base to prevent rutting. Expect more frequent light grading and occasional top-ups — plan for basic maintenance every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic.
A useful rule of thumb: 1 ton of crushed gravel covers about 120 square feet at 2" depth. For example, a 10' x 40' driveway (400 sq ft) at 3" depth needs roughly 5 tons, while the same area with a 6" compacted base plus 2" topcoat can require 10+ tons. Local soil (sandy or clay conditions common around Lasara) may require a thicker base, so measure the desired finished depth and use the cubic yard to ton conversion shown at checkout or contact our team for a precise calc.
Costs vary by scope, but expect contractors to charge roughly $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for grading, base prep, and installing compacted gravel, with higher rates for poor soils or longer driveways. Equipment rental (skid steers, compactors) and machine time can add $200-$500 per day if you DIY or hire subcontractors. Always get a written quote that lists excavation, fabric, base material, compaction, and cleanup so you can compare total installed prices.
Permitting rules vary: many rural properties in Willacy County do not require a simple driveway permit, but if you connect to a county road, change drainage, or are inside municipal limits you may need approval. Lasara is small, so HOA restrictions are uncommon, but always check your deed, any neighborhood covenants, and the Willacy County permitting office before starting. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or the county planning office to confirm local requirements.
Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers and haulers that serve Lasara and nearby towns (suppliers often operate out of regional quarries near Raymondville, Harlingen, and other South/West Texas hubs). Many haulers can deliver and sometimes offer tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion, but spreading and compaction are not always included and should be requested in the order notes or booked separately. Use our platform to see available suppliers, delivery options, and whether spreading or compaction services are offered for your zip code.
Long-term costs include periodic regrading, weed control, and replenishment. Expect light annual upkeep like grading and weed treatment costing roughly $50-$200 per year for a typical residential driveway, and a larger replenishment every 2-5 years that can run a few hundred dollars depending on driveway size and the amount of material needed. Hot, dry conditions can increase dust and displacement, so budgeting for occasional top-ups is wise.
Gravel is usually the lowest upfront cost and provides very good drainage, which helps in heavy-rain events, but it requires more maintenance and periodic replacement. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially and handle traffic with less routine maintenance, but asphalt may soften or rut in extreme heat if not properly mixed and installed. For many Lasara properties, gravel is a cost-effective, flexible choice — choose asphalt or concrete when you want lower long-term maintenance and a smoother surface.
For most driveways, aim for a compacted base of 4" to 6" of crushed stone or recycled concrete plus a 1" to 2" topcoat; in sandy or clay soils increase the base to 6" to 8" and consider a geotextile fabric to stabilize the subgrade. Parking pads with heavy loads may need 8" or more of compacted base. For drainage trenches use angular rock sized to the function (3/4" to 2") and provide a free-draining layer with fabric to keep fines out.
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.
