Why Fort Hancock Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fort Hancock is a small but growing West Texas community of 1,590 residents situated within a larger metro region of 2.7+ million people. With a steady growth rate of 1.00% annually and a sun-forward climate, residents balance rural living with rising construction and landscaping needs. The area averages 228 sunny days per year and sits in hardiness zone 8b, with an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches—conditions that favor drought-tolerant yards, low-maintenance driveways, and robust drainage solutions. As homes are updated or new projects begin, homeowners look for reliable aggregates that hold up under strong sun, handle occasional heavy rain, and match local soil and color palettes. Quality gravel provides a durable, low-maintenance surface for driveways, pathways, and erosion-control work, which is why local buyers prioritize material consistency, proper grading, and timely delivery. In Fort Hancock's climate, gravel performs well because it resists sun damage, sheds water during storms, and helps stabilize sandy or loam soils common to West Texas. Open-graded and angular gravels improve drainage and prevent rutting in high-traffic areas, while compacting and proper edging keep finishes neat in windy conditions. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers so the material you get reflects Fort Hancock's geology and climate; our online ordering, delivery scheduling, and material guides make it easier to choose the right gravel and get it to your site when you need it without the usual coordination headaches.Popular Projects in Fort Hancock This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fort Hancock gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fort Hancock.
Prices vary with material, quantity, and delivery distance, but in West Texas you can generally expect delivered gravel to fall in a moderate range. Finer materials and specialty colors cost more than common crushed stone, and delivery or long-haul fees can add to the total. For an exact price check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote to see current per-ton and per-yard rates for your address.
For Fort Hancock’s dry, windy climate, crushed limestone or crushed granite with a mix of fines perform best because they lock together and resist wind migration. Decomposed granite can work for low-traffic paths or patios but may wash or dust under heavy use, while pea gravel tends to move and create dust in windy conditions and is usually less suitable for driveways.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and most deliveries come by tri-axle dump truck, so you should expect standard delivery lead times of 2+ business days and next-day options if ordered before noon CST (fees may apply). Trucks need a safe turnaround and about 12-14 feet of clear width and 10-12 feet of overhead clearance; drivers may refuse delivery if access is unsafe. Local road weight limits or narrow county roads in Hudspeth County can affect delivery, so confirm access when you order.
Use 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.4 tons as a local conversion (varies by material). Examples: a 1-car driveway (12' x 20') needs about 3 cu yd (≈4.2 tons) at 4" depth or about 4.5 cu yd (≈6.3 tons) at 6"; a 2-car driveway (20' x 20') needs about 5 cu yd (≈7 tons) at 4" or 7.5 cu yd (≈10.5 tons) at 6"; a 100 ft farm road (12' wide) needs about 22–30 cu yd (≈31–42 tons) depending on whether you use 6" or 8" depth. Always round up for compaction, settlement, and waste and use Hello Gravel’s calculator or request help if unsure.
Contractors in West Texas typically prep the subgrade, install geotextile fabric on soft soils, and place a compacted base of 6" to 8" of crushed stone for driveways, with a 2" to 3" wearing course on top. Each layer should be compacted with a plate compactor or roller; good compaction reduces settling and migration in the windy, arid climate. For low-traffic or decorative drives a 4" compacted base may suffice, but heavier loads need the thicker section.
In Fort Hancock’s dry and windy conditions, expect to regrade every 1–3 years and add material more often in high-wind or high-traffic areas. Typical upkeep includes light grading to restore crown and smooth ruts, adding 1/4" to 1" of new material per year depending on use, and periodically compacting after repairs. Regular maintenance prevents potholes and reduces the quantity of material you’ll need long term.
County regulations and any HOA rules can affect driveway entrances, culverts, or connections to county roads, so contact Hudspeth County offices for permitting or driveway approach standards before you start. Rural properties often need an approved culvert or driveway permit when connecting to a county-maintained road; check for any local HOA restrictions if you are in a subdivision. When in doubt, confirm rules early and note them in your project plan.
Gravel usually has a lower upfront cost than asphalt or concrete and is easier to install on rural sites, making it a common choice around Fort Hancock. However, gravel requires more ongoing maintenance such as periodic regrading and topping, while asphalt and concrete provide smoother, lower-maintenance surfaces but with higher initial cost and possible drainage or cracking issues in extreme heat. For low-traffic rural driveways gravel often remains the most economical long-term option if you account for regular upkeep.
Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, available sizes and colors reflect local geology—expect crushed limestone, crushed granite, decomposed granite, and pea gravel in a range of tan, gray, and reddish tones. If you have a color or size preference, add it to the Order Notes at checkout and our team will check local supplier options and include choices in your quote. Keep in mind natural variation is normal, so samples or photos may differ from final delivery.
Use proper grading with a crowned surface and swales to shed water away from the driving surface, and install geotextile fabric and edge restraints to limit lateral migration of stone. For dust control in very dry, windy conditions consider products like calcium chloride or polymer stabilizers and using a blend with fines that binds better; vegetation and rock berms also help trap blowing sand. Always tailor solutions to your site’s drainage patterns and consult a local supplier or contractor for product recommendations.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
