Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

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.

Why Pelican Island Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Pelican Island is a growing coastal community with a city population: 1,700 and strong ties to the wider metro area (metro area population: 4.6+ million). With a growth rate of 2.10% annually, local homeowners and builders are seeing more renovation and new-build activity that increases demand for dependable aggregates. The climate here—hardiness zone 8a with about 218/year sunny days and 38.97 inches of annual rainfall—creates seasons that favor outdoor projects but also require materials that handle both intense sun and periodic heavy rain. For many projects, from stabilizing driveways to improving yard drainage, homeowners choose gravel because it balances permeability, durability, and low maintenance. Quality aggregate reduces erosion, supports vehicle loads, and provides a long-lasting surface that fits Pelican Island’s mix of coastal soils and suburban development.Popular Projects in Pelican Island This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Pelican Island gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Pelican Island.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers serving Pelican Island and nearby Galveston County. Orders start at 3 tons and are delivered by dump truck; you can check zip code availability, get pricing, and schedule delivery on our site or call/text our team for help.
For Pelican Island you’ll often want washed, crushed stone for driveways and heavy use because it compacts well and resists erosion. For a beachy look use rounded or pea gravel for landscaping, but expect more movement and lower compaction with those choices.
Collecting natural gravel or shells from beaches may be restricted and the material often contains organic debris and salt that will break down or shift over time. For long-lasting results we recommend purchasing washed, processed gravel from a supplier rather than using unprocessed beach material.
Rules vary: you generally need permission to remove material from private property, and state parks or protected shorelines prohibit collecting. Check Galveston County and any local park or municipal rules before taking rocks or shells, or contact our team to order permitted, clean material instead.
Yes. Large nearby construction or seasonal demand can tighten supply, affect truck access, and raise delivery times or costs. We recommend ordering early, especially during busy seasons or after major storms, and checking our next-day option if you need faster delivery.
Yes, we deliver to residential addresses on Pelican Island using tri-axle dump trucks. Please clear low branches, confirm driveway weight limits or soft ground, provide a clear drop location and any gate codes, and note that drivers will assess safety before unloading.
Delivery sites near marshes or tidal waterways can have wildlife like wading birds or occasional alligators, and drivers will use caution when entering sensitive areas. If your property is near water, tell us in Order Notes so the driver can plan and decide whether tailgate spreading is safe.
Use our material calculator for the exact amount, but as a rule of thumb: 100 sq ft at 2 inches deep needs about 0.8 tons of gravel; a typical 2-car driveway (about 600 sq ft) at 2 inches needs roughly 5 tons. Increase quantities for deeper bases (4 inches roughly doubles the amount) and remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Shell-rich mixes and loose beach sand look authentic but do not compact well for driveways and can break down into dust or sharp fragments. For driveways and high-traffic areas choose a crushed stone or stabilized gravel that compacts and drains well.
Yes. During hurricane season you should avoid placing loose piles where storm surge or heavy runoff could wash them into streets or wetlands. Use properly compacted base layers, slope surfaces for drainage, and consider contractor-installed edging or stabilization if you’re near the shoreline.
Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and you can request it at checkout, but there are no guarantees. The driver will assess access, safety, and local conditions upon arrival and decide whether spreading is possible.
Salt air doesn’t degrade most stone, but it can speed corrosion of metal fasteners and degrade some types of decorative aggregates over time. For long-term installations, choose durable crushed stone and use corrosion-resistant fixtures for edging or drainage hardware.
Yes. Some Pelican Island neighborhoods and nearby Galveston historic districts or HOAs may have rules about front-yard materials, colors, and curb appeal. Check your HOA covenants or local planning office before landscaping, or ask our sales team for suggestions that meet common neighborhood standards.
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.
