Gravel: Built For Dry-Climate Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Available Locally
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.
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 Laredo Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Laredo, TX, with a city population of 257,547, sits on the U.S.–Mexico border and is experiencing steady growth at 1.20% annually. The region's warm, semi-arid climate and active trade-driven economy are fueling ongoing residential and commercial projects—from new driveways and xeriscape yards to small commercial pads and drainage upgrades. Homeowners here need dependable, low-maintenance materials that perform under high sun exposure and occasional intense rains; that demand makes quality gravel a common choice for both aesthetic and functional landscaping. Gravel helps stabilize surfaces, reduce erosion, and cut down on lawn water needs, which is especially important as properties change with Laredo's steady development. In Laredo's local environment—with roughly 300/year sunny days and about 20.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 9a—gravel offers reliable drainage and long-term durability. Coarse, angular gravel resists washout during heavy downpours while letting water infiltrate in periods between storms. Hello Gravel connects homeowners to trusted local suppliers and professional dump-truck delivery so you get regionally sourced material that reflects local geology. Order online, choose a delivery date, and get the right gravel for driveways, French drains, walkways, or xeriscape beds without the hassle of sourcing multiple vendors.Popular Projects in Laredo This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laredo gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Laredo.
Prices in Laredo vary by gravel type, delivery distance, and supplier, but homeowners commonly pay roughly $30 to $70 per ton delivered. That translates to about $40 to $90 per cubic yard depending on material density and whether delivery or spreading fees apply.
For driveways in Laredo's hot summers and occasional heavy rain, angular crushed stone (3/4" to 1") or crushed limestone are popular because they compact well and shed water. For walkways and patios, decomposed granite or pea gravel can be attractive and comfortable underfoot, but pea gravel is less stable for driveways unless contained by edging.
Many Laredo contractors do recommend gravel for driveways, especially on rural properties, because it is cost-effective and drains well. They stress proper base preparation, compaction, edging, and grading to handle summer heat and heavy rain, rather than relying on surface gravel alone.
A typical two-car driveway (about 20' x 20') needs roughly 4 to 8 cubic yards (about 5 to 10 tons) for a 3" to 4" surface layer; increasing depth or adding a base will raise quantities. Small patios (10' x 12') usually need about 1 to 2.5 cubic yards (1.5 to 3.5 tons) depending on depth.
Installed costs depend on site work, edging type, and how much base is required, but expect roughly $1,500 to $6,000 for an average two-car driveway in the Laredo area. Low end reflects minimal prep and simple edging, while higher costs include heavy grading, geotextile fabric, compacted base stone, and professional labor.
In Laredo, driveways typically need light regrading once a year and a top-up of fresh gravel every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and storms. Maintenance costs are modest: regrading with a rented tool or contractor can run $50 to $300, while adding a few tons of gravel usually costs $100 to $600 delivered and spread.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers serving Laredo and surrounding South Texas, so you can check availability by entering your zip code on our site. Minimum orders start at 3 tons, standard delivery is 2+ business days, and many local suppliers offer delivery to residential and rural addresses for an added fee or free in some areas.
Gravel is generally the lowest upfront cost and offers excellent drainage compared with concrete or asphalt, which helps during heavy rains common in South Texas. It is less durable and requires periodic maintenance and topping, while concrete and asphalt last longer with less frequent upkeep but cost significantly more to install.
For driveways, contractors in Laredo commonly recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of larger crushed stone with a 2 to 3 inch surface layer of smaller gravel, plus a slight crown for runoff. Use sturdy edging such as concrete curbs, steel, or treated timber and add drainage features like swales or culverts where water concentrates to reduce washouts.
For low dust and good drainage, #57 crushed stone or washed crushed limestone are common choices in Texas because they allow water to pass while producing less fine dust than unwashed mixes. Stabilized decomposed granite or bound gravel products are an option if you want less tracking and dust on patios, but availability and color vary by local quarries.
Order online by selecting gravel type and entering your Laredo zip code; note that minimum orders start at 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST. On delivery day expect a contracted dump truck to arrive (no Hello Gravel branding), and you can request tailgate spreading at checkout but the driver will decide if it is safe to do the work.
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.
