Gravel: Semi-Arid Drainage And Dust Control • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Support
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 Leakey Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Leakey (city population 1,620) sits in West Texas’ semi-arid landscape and is experiencing measured growth (0.44% annually) that keeps small-scale construction and property improvements steady. With about 228 sunny days per year, 33.03 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners in Leakey contend with intense sun, intermittent heavy rains, and soils that benefit from good surface drainage. That combination drives demand for dependable aggregates for driveways, erosion control, pathways, and base material for patios and sheds. Homeowners look for gravel that provides long-term performance, reduces maintenance work, and manages runoff on rural lots and sloped driveways where local development and renovations are common.Popular Projects in Leakey This Season

Summer Tip: Choose angular, 3/4-inch to 1-inch crushed gravel over rounded stone for driveways and drainage; lay geotextile fabric first to reduce migration and improve stability. Order at least the 3-ton minimum and request delivery timing that avoids recent heavy rain to reduce tracking and compaction.

Frequently Asked Questions - Leakey gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Leakey.
Prices vary by gravel type, distance, and supplier, but a rough estimate for common gravels in West Texas is $40 to $80 per ton delivered. A tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10 to 12 tons, so a single truck delivery often runs roughly $400 to $960 before any special fees. For an accurate price for your address and material choice, request a quote through Hello Gravel.
Crushed stone or crusher-run (3/4" minus) and 3/4" crushed limestone are the most common choices for durable driveways and rural roads because they compact well and resist washout. Pea gravel can be attractive for short, low-traffic driveways but moves under tires, and Texas black gravel is a regional decorative option that may be suitable for driveways if you want a darker finish. Choose material based on traffic, drainage, and maintenance preferences, and ask suppliers about local availability.
Texas black gravel is often available from regional suppliers, but availability varies due to local geology and stock. Hello Gravel typically requires a minimum order of 3 tons, and deliveries are done by contracted dump trucks; check your zip code and request a material note at checkout to confirm availability. If Texas black is not available locally, suppliers can recommend close alternatives with similar appearance.
It depends on driveway width and desired depth. For example, a 500 ft driveway that is 12 ft wide at a 3" depth needs about 55 cubic yards, which is roughly 75 to 80 tons of gravel (density varies by product). If you plan 4" to 6" depth, multiply quantities accordingly; get a precise quote by giving your width, depth, and existing base condition to Hello Gravel.
Yes, many local contractors provide grading, base preparation, and compaction services in and around Leakey, and rates depend on equipment, scope, and site access. Smaller projects often cost a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, while longer driveways or full reconstructions cost more; expect a wide range based on site conditions. Ask Hello Gravel for referrals to local contractors and get multiple estimates for a tailored price.
Yes, suppliers commonly offer bulk pricing and negotiated discounts for recurring deliveries or large municipal orders. Discounts depend on total tonnage, frequency, and delivery logistics, so contractors should contact Hello Gravel's sales team to discuss volume pricing and set up recurring delivery plans. We can help coordinate supplier bids for larger or ongoing projects.
Standard delivery lead time is 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Because Hello Gravel works with regional suppliers, most will serve Leakey and nearby towns, but availability and lead times can vary by supplier and material. Check your zip code on the site or contact our team to confirm timing for your specific address.
Deliveries are usually made by tri-axle dump trucks (10-12 ton capacity) and Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order. Expect drivers to need a clear turning radius, level ground for dumping, and sufficient load-bearing surface to avoid getting stuck; if access is tight or soft, smaller trucks or additional fees may apply. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout but drivers perform that at their discretion and it is not guaranteed.
Some local suppliers and contractors offer demolition and hauling services to remove old rock, soil, or debris before laying new gravel, but this is not universally available and is priced separately. Removal costs depend on the volume, disposal fees, distance to landfill, and labor; pricing is usually quoted per load or by the hour. Ask Hello Gravel for local contractors that provide site cleanup and removal so you can bundle services into one estimate.
Yes, deliveries can be affected by county road weight limits, bridge or culvert capacity, and local ordinances, so truck routing may be adjusted to protect infrastructure. Some rural properties have homeowner association rules or county permits related to driveway improvements or visible surface materials, so check local regulations before ordering. If access or permits are a concern, mention them when you request a quote and our team will help coordinate with suppliers and drivers.
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.
