Why Gillett Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Gillett has a population of 290 and sits in a semi-arid pocket of West Texas that is seeing steady regional growth—the broader metro area includes 2.4+ million residents and the region grows about 0.45% annually. With a hardiness zone of 8b, 228 sunny days per year, and annual rainfall of 35.12 inches, local yards and driveways face strong sun, sporadic heavy storms, and dry soils that can erode or compact unevenly. Those conditions drive demand for dependable aggregates: homeowners and small contractors in Gillett need materials that control erosion, support driveways, improve drainage, and form stable bases for patios and pavers. Quality gravel helps manage runoff during occasional downpours while standing up to sunlight and heat between storms, making it a go-to choice for low-maintenance, long-lasting outdoor projects in this community.Popular Projects in Gillett This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Gillett gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Gillett.
Costs vary by material type, distance, and supplier, but in rural West Texas you can expect a delivered gravel price range rather than a fixed rate. Material plus delivery often falls in a broad range (roughly $30 to $70 per ton) depending on whether you choose crushed limestone, pea gravel, or decorative rock; small orders or long hauls can push costs higher. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Local suppliers in West Texas commonly offer crushed limestone, crushed gravel, pea gravel, decomposed granite, and river rock when sourced nearby. For Gillett properties, crushed limestone or crushed gravel are often best for driveways and ranch roads because they lock together and compact well; pea gravel and river rock are better for decorative or low-traffic areas. Availability and exact color/texture can vary by supplier and local geology, so add preferences in Order Notes or ask our team for photos.
Use this quick rule: per linear foot, a 12-foot-wide driveway needs about 0.11 cubic yards for a 3-inch depth, 0.15 cubic yards for 4 inches, and about 0.07 cubic yards for 2 inches. Multiply cubic yards by roughly 1.4 to estimate tons (so a 3-inch depth needs about 0.15 tons per linear foot). For example, a 100-foot-long, 12-foot-wide driveway at 3" depth needs about 11.1 cubic yards or roughly 15.5 tons; always round up and account for compaction and waste.
Yes. Hot, dry conditions make loose gravel dusty and prone to migration, while occasional heavy rain can wash out poorly drained areas. For Gillett, use a well-compacted base, slope or crown the surface for runoff, and consider stabilizers or polymer-treated materials on high-use pads. Adding a geotextile fabric over soft soils helps prevent rutting and washouts during storms.
For high-traffic residential driveways, install a 4-6" compacted base of crushed stone (base) topped with 2-3" of wearing stone. RV pads benefit from a 6-8" compacted base with good subbase material and a 2-3" wear layer. For ranch roads expect 6-12" of compacted base depending on soil and axle loads; always compact in layers and use angular aggregate for best interlock.
Frequency depends on traffic and weather, but many West Texas homeowners regrade and add top dressing every 1-3 years and do a larger replenishment every 3-7 years. Heavy truck or RV use, seasonal washouts, or poor drainage can shorten that cycle. Regular small top-ups and grading are cheaper than full replacement.
Expect ongoing maintenance costs such as occasional regrading (a few hundred dollars if hiring equipment), periodic topping (material cost for a few tons every 1–3 years), weed control, and spot repairs after storms. Over 5–10 years, routine upkeep often totals a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars depending on driveway length and traffic; major rebuilds are separate and happen less often. Using a quality base and good drainage reduces long-term costs.
Gravel has a lower upfront cost than asphalt or concrete and provides excellent drainage, which helps during heavy rains. Lifespan is shorter and maintenance is higher—plan for periodic topping and grading—whereas asphalt or concrete cost more up front but can require less frequent maintenance. For rural Gillett properties where drainage and flexibility matter, gravel is often a cost-effective choice; for low-maintenance paved surfaces, asphalt or concrete may be preferable.
Requirements vary: small towns like Gillett may have few formal restrictions, but county regulations, local road access rules, or HOAs (if present) can impose standards on driveway materials, drainage, and setbacks. Before you install, check with Gillett town offices, your county building department, and any HOA to confirm permit needs or material restrictions. When in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or local authorities for guidance.

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.
