Gravel: Built For Goliad Drainage Needs • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Goliad
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.
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 Goliad Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Goliad is a West Texas city of 4,960 people sitting within a broader region of 2.5+ million residents. With modest growth at 0.13% annually and a semi-arid climate that averages 228 sunny days and 34.22 inches of rain each year (USDA Hardiness Zone 9a), local weather drives specific demands for durable, well-draining materials. Homeowners in Goliad face hot summers, intense sun, and occasional heavy rains that make proper drainage, erosion control, and low-maintenance landscapes a priority. That means reliable aggregates are in demand for driveways, French drains, pathways, base layers under pavers, and xeriscaping. Because native soils here can be compactable or clay-rich, many homeowners choose gravel to improve permeability and reduce standing water while keeping long-term upkeep low. Contractors across the metro also rely on regional materials, so having access to locally sourced gravel helps match color and performance for repair and new-build projects.Popular Projects in Goliad This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Goliad gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Goliad.
Delivered gravel prices in Goliad typically vary based on type and distance from the quarry. Expect a delivered range of about $25 to $55 per ton, which converts roughly to $35 to $77 per cubic yard (using ~1.4 tons per cubic yard). Final price depends on the material (pea, #57, crusher run), truck access, and any delivery fees or minimums.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that serve Goliad and surrounding West Texas counties, including regional limestone and river-run sources. Use our site to check your zip code and schedule delivery; we work with local quarries and contracted dump truck fleets (typical minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days).
For Goliad's hot climate and clay-influenced soils, crushed limestone or #57 crushed stone are excellent choices because they compact well and resist rutting. Avoid loose pea gravel for primary driveway surfaces since it moves under vehicle traffic; use pea gravel only for low-traffic decorative areas or walkways. A layered approach with a crusher-run or base rock under a 3/4" top layer gives the best durability.
A quick way to estimate: multiply area (ft^2) by depth (inches) and divide by 324 to get cubic yards. For example, a 1-car driveway (12 ft x 20 ft) at a 3" top layer uses about 0.7 cubic yards (~1.0 ton); a 2-car driveway (20 ft x 40 ft) at 4" total depth uses about 4.4 cubic yards (~6.2 tons). Always add 5-10% for compaction and grading, and consider extra for base layers if you need a deeper build.
For driveways, aim for 4" to 6" of compacted structural gravel (crusher run or base rock) with a 2" to 3" wearing layer of 3/4" crushed stone on top. Parking pads for regular vehicle use should be 6" compacted; light-duty rural roads often require 8" to 12" depending on traffic and subgrade. Compact in 2" to 3" lifts with a plate compactor or roller and consider geotextile fabric over soft or clay subgrades to reduce movement.
West Texas summer storms and occasional heavy rains can wash out gravel if surfaces are flat or poorly drained. Prevent washout by creating a crowned center or slight slope for runoff, installing swales or French drains, using edge restraints, and compacting properly. Adding geotextile fabric and checking or increasing shoulder vegetation and culverts will also reduce erosion after heavy rains.
Topping frequency depends on traffic, storms, and initial build quality; most Goliad driveways need a light reload every 1 to 3 years. Typical annual top-up ranges from about 0.25 to 0.5 cubic yards per 100 sq ft (roughly 0.35 to 0.7 tons), so a medium-size driveway might need 1 to 3 tons each year. More severe washout after storms may require additional spot repairs.
Gravel has a lower upfront cost than asphalt or concrete, making it attractive for rural Goliad properties, but it requires ongoing maintenance. As a rough comparison, gravel driveways often run in the low single-digit dollars per square foot installed, while asphalt and concrete typically cost several times more per square foot initially. Consider lifetime costs: asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but lower frequent topping needs, while gravel costs less up front but needs periodic replenishment.
Permit and HOA rules vary: many rural properties in Goliad County allow gravel driveways, but city limits and some HOAs may have restrictions on surfacing material or drainage. Before ordering material, check Goliad city or county building and zoning offices and review any HOA covenants. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or your local planning office with your parcel number to confirm requirements.
Decorative gravels (pea gravel, colored rock) are typically screened, sized for appearance, and sold at a premium per ton or per bag; they are popular for gardens and walkways but are not ideal as structural base. Structural gravels like crusher run, #57, or recycled base are sold in bulk, cost less per ton, and are designed to lock together and support traffic. When ordering for driveways, choose structural material in bulk and reserve decorative stone for non-traffic areas.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
