Why Decatur Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Decatur has a city population of 20,090 and is part of a metro area with a population of 2.5+ million. The city is growing at 1.90% annually, and its climate—with 228 sunny days per year, about 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and placement in hardiness zone 8b—shapes how homeowners approach landscaping and outdoor projects. That steady growth, combined with sunny but moderately wet conditions, drives demand for practical, low-maintenance solutions: driveways, patios, drainage upgrades, and erosion control. Homeowners choose quality aggregates to create durable surfaces that stand up to intense sun, shed water during heavy rains, and reduce long-term yard maintenance. Because local geology influences color and texture, Decatur residents often look for reliable suppliers who can match appearance and performance to neighborhood styles and soil conditions.Popular Projects in Decatur This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Decatur gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Decatur.
Delivered gravel prices in Decatur vary by material and haul distance, but a typical ballpark is $30 to $80 per ton for common gravels (material plus delivery). Most residential jobs also involve a small flat delivery or minimum-order fee; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and will show exact delivery charges at checkout based on your zip code and supplier. For an accurate cost, get a quote through our site since local quarry supply and truck routing drive final pricing.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local quarries and aggregate yards that service Decatur and nearby West Texas areas, including limestone producers common to North Texas. Specific supplier names depend on your zip code and current regional inventory; enter your address on our site to see active suppliers and product availability. Regional sourcing means material texture and color will reflect nearby geology, so you can request photos or notes in your order.
For Decatur conditions we recommend angular, crushed stone (for example 3/4" crushed limestone or #57) because it locks together, drains well, and holds up better on clay than rounded pea gravel. Larger sizes and crushed aggregate resist rutting in heavy storms; decomposed granite can work for walkways but may rut or dust on clay unless stabilized. For clay soils, add a compacted base layer, geotextile fabric, and good drainage to improve long-term performance.
To estimate tons: multiply area (sq ft) by depth (ft) to get cubic feet, divide by 27 for cubic yards, then convert to tons (about 1.3 tons per cubic yard for crushed stone). For 600–800 sq ft at 3 inches depth you will need roughly 7 to 10 tons; at 4 inches expect about 9 to 13 tons; a full 6-inch compacted base plus 2–3 inches of surface could be 15–20 tons. Contractors usually calculate this way and recommend ordering 10% extra for compaction and waste.
Labor and spreading costs around Decatur can vary with site access and prep needs; simple tailgate spreading by a driver may be a modest fee or included, while professional grading, compacting, and edging will add more. As a rough guide, expect DIY spreading to be limited or free at drivers discretion, and full contractor installation for a 600–800 sq ft driveway to range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on excavation, base prep, and compaction. Get multiple local quotes and describe site access, slopes, and how much prep is needed for an accurate estimate.
Many single-family properties in Wise County or Decatur do not require a county permit for a residential gravel driveway, but rules vary by location and if the work affects public right-of-way or drainage you may need permits. HOAs often have design rules or surface material restrictions, so check any HOA covenants before ordering. When in doubt, contact Decatur city offices, Wise County, or your HOA to confirm requirements before delivery.
Crushed concrete is often cheaper than natural stone because it is recycled material and is typically available nearby, but availability and quality vary regionally. For a base layer crushed concrete can perform as well as natural aggregate, though it can contain more fines and may compact differently; for a finished surface many homeowners prefer natural crushed stone for appearance and consistent drainage. Ask suppliers about source material and recommended uses so you get the right product for your project.
Common, practical measures for Decatur include installing geotextile fabric under the gravel to block weeds, using a compacted stone base to reduce migration into clay, and applying dust suppressants (calcium chloride or polymer binders) on high-traffic areas to reduce dust. Regular maintenance like adding a thin top-up layer and applying a pre-emergent herbicide in spring also helps. Ask your Hello Gravel supplier about compatible stabilizers and whether they can add a dust-control mix at order time.
Delivery trucks typically come from quarries and yards within a 20–60 mile radius of Decatur; the exact distance depends on local supplier networks and available inventory. Haul distance is a major factor in per-ton pricing because trucking time and fuel increase costs, so materials sourced from farther quarries will raise the delivered price. Hello Gravel shows final pricing based on local supply and routing when you enter your zip code so you can compare nearer vs. farther options.
In Decatur, summer heat and storm seasons can increase dust and make compaction trickier, while heavy rains can delay deliveries and installation. Demand and pricing can shift in peak landscaping seasons (spring and fall), and suppliers sometimes adjust availability after big weather events. Plan major installs for mild, dry weather when compaction and drainage work best, and request quotes early to lock in material and delivery dates.
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.
