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.

Why Gholson Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Gholson is a growing community with a city population of 11,680 and connections to a metro area population of 4.6+ million. With a growth rate of 2.10% annually, demand for new homes, driveways, and outdoor hardscapes is on the rise. The local climate—218 sunny days per year, average annual rainfall of 38.97 inches, and hardiness zone 8a—supports year-round landscaping while also producing seasonal runoff and compacted soils that make correct aggregate selection important. Homeowners in Gholson commonly choose gravel for driveways, pathways, base material under pavers, and erosion control because it improves drainage, resists rutting after rain, and can be sourced regionally to match local color and texture. As construction and renovation projects continue across the area, choosing the right gravel grade and placement can reduce maintenance and prevent common site problems.Popular Projects in Gholson This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Gholson gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Gholson.
Prices vary by material, delivery distance, and haul conditions, but expect approximate delivered ranges to Gholson: crushed limestone $25-$45 per ton (about $35-$63 per cubic yard), pea gravel $30-$60 per ton ($42-$84 per cubic yard), decomposed granite $30-$60 per ton ($42-$84 per cubic yard), and river rock $40-$85 per ton ($56-$119 per cubic yard). Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and final price depends on truck access, driveway location, and any delivery fees. Request a quote for an exact delivered price to your zip code.
For Gholson's central Texas conditions, crushed limestone or crushed rock with fines are the most common choices because they compact well and shed water when installed with the right slope. Pea gravel can be attractive but tends to migrate and needs edging and stronger base preparation. Decomposed granite can work for low-traffic areas if stabilized, while river rock is best for decorative beds, not heavy-use driveways.
Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries and haulers that deliver to Gholson; supplier names and availability vary by day and regional stock. Most local haulers run tri-axle trucks and require a 3-ton minimum (our minimum), while some quarries or smaller haulers may set higher minimums of 5-10 tons. Delivery fees depend on distance, truck access, and jobsite conditions, so get a tailored quote from Hello Gravel to see which suppliers serve your address and their exact minimums.
A 12x40 ft area is 480 sq ft. At 2" depth you need about 3.0 cubic yards or roughly 4.2 tons; at 3" depth about 4.4 cubic yards or 6.2 tons; at 4" depth about 6.0 cubic yards or 8.3 tons (using ~1.4 tons per cubic yard). When ordering, round up and add 5-10% extra for compaction and spreading; Hello Gravel's calculator can do this for your exact material.
Permitting usually depends on what you change: replacing lawn with gravel on private property rarely needs a building permit, but creating a new driveway entrance onto a county road or altering stormwater flow can require McLennan County or city approval. HOA rules, subdivision covenants, and road-access permits are common triggers, so contact McLennan County permitting or the City of Gholson before starting work. If in doubt, Hello Gravel can help you identify likely permit needs and recommend contacting local authorities.
On clay soils, start with proper grading and a compacted subgrade, add a geotextile fabric to limit mixing, then install a 4" to 8" compacted base of crushed stone before the top gravel. Provide a 1-2% crown and positive side slopes, install edge restraints, and consider swales or French drains to route runoff away from the driveway. Good drainage and a stable base greatly reduce potholes and rutting in heavy Central Texas rains.
Labor and machine work vary with site access, existing conditions, and scope; a simple regrade and new top layer may run a few hundred dollars, while a full install with geotextile, 4-8" base, edging, and compaction typically ranges $25-$75 per cubic yard installed or about $1,500-$5,000 for a standard 12x40 driveway depending on complexity. Costs increase for poor access, heavy excavation, or additional drainage work. Ask contractors for itemized bids and use Hello Gravel quotes for material-only comparisons.
Expect light maintenance every 1-3 years: regrading low spots and adding a 1/2" to 1" top-up of gravel is common after storms or winter/seasonal traffic. Annual maintenance costs are often modest—typically $100-$600 per year for occasional regrading and topping when done DIY or using a local landscaper; higher-traffic driveways cost more. Regularly clearing drainage channels and repairing edges reduces long-term costs.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost but higher recurring maintenance compared with asphalt and concrete; asphalt and concrete cost more to install but usually need less frequent major repairs. Over a 15-20 year horizon, gravel can be the cheapest option for low-traffic rural drives, while asphalt or concrete may be more cost-effective for high-traffic or paved-access requirements. Consider expected traffic, drainage needs, and maintenance willingness when choosing materials.
Local rules vary: small private driveway installs normally have minimal permitting, but construction near streams, wetlands, or public right-of-way can trigger erosion control and runoff requirements enforced by McLennan County or state agencies. Dust control is typically managed on-site (watering, stabilizers) and contractors may offer dust-suppression options; when dust or runoff could affect neighbors or public roads, you may need additional controls. If you have concerns, check McLennan County and TCEQ guidance or contact Hello Gravel for material and delivery notes relevant to compliance.

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.
