Why Selma Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Selma sits within a growing West Texas region with a city population of 993,588 and a metro area of 2.7+ million, expanding at about 0.40% annually. With 228 sunny days a year, average rainfall of 34.32 inches, and USDA hardiness zone 8b, homeowners here balance strong sun with seasonal rain events and soils that range from sandy to clay. That climate and steady growth drive demand for durable, well-draining aggregates for driveways, pathways, drainage swales, and base layers under patios and pavers. Homeowners choose quality gravel to reduce erosion, improve water infiltration after storms, and create low-maintenance surfaces that tolerate sun exposure. For both DIYers and contractors, consistent material gradation and reliable local supply are critical to avoid settling, washout, or extra rework.Popular Projects in Selma This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Selma gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Selma.
For driveways in Selma, angular crushed stone such as 3/4" crushed limestone or #57 crushed rock is a top choice because it locks together and compacts well on local clay soils. For landscaping and pathways, pea gravel and river rock are attractive but best for low-traffic areas; crushed stone or decomposed granite works better where you need stability. Due to regional sourcing, the exact color and texture will vary, so request photos or notes at checkout if color is important.
Measure the driveway (length x width) and choose a depth (4" minimum for light use, 4-6" for regular passenger vehicles, 6+" for heavy trucks), then use the formula: cubic yards = length(ft) x width(ft) x depth(in) / 324. Multiply cubic yards by 1.3 to 1.6 to estimate tons (density varies by material), so a typical 1-car driveway (12' x 20' at 4") is about 3 cu yd or roughly 4-5 tons. Hello Gravel offers a material calculator on the site and our team can help confirm numbers for your specific Selma project.
Prices depend on type and supplier, but a common range for driveway-grade crushed stone in West Texas is about $25 to $60 per ton, or roughly $35 to $80 per cubic yard delivered. Delivery fees vary by distance and order size; Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and often includes free delivery in many areas, but expect additional fees for long hauls or small orders. For an accurate price, check your zip code on our site or request a quote and we will show local supplier pricing and any delivery charges.
Permit rules vary by city and county; in many Texas neighborhoods a simple residential gravel driveway does not require a permit, but work in the city right-of-way, curb cuts, or large changes to drainage can. Before major deliveries or installation, contact the City of Selma Planning or Public Works department to confirm local rules and any restrictions on truck access. If you need help, our team can point you to the local permitting office and advise on typical requirements.
For improved drainage on clay soils, use angular, free-draining materials such as 3/4" crushed rock or open-graded stone (e.g., #57) combined with a permeable base and geotextile fabric. In areas prone to flash flooding or erosion, use larger rock (1"-3" or riprap) at slopes and around channels, and install a properly graded swale or retaining features to direct water. Combining rock with sub-surface drainage (French drains) and proper grading gives the best long-term erosion control in West Texas conditions.
Pea gravel is not recommended for high-traffic driveways or areas where vehicles will turn, because its round stones move and spread easily. For driveways and high-traffic walkways in Selma, choose angular crushed stone, decomposed granite with stabilizer, or compacting base rock (3/4" minus) to provide a firm, stable surface. These materials lock together better, resist migration, and require less frequent replenishing.
Bulk delivery is usually most cost-effective for typical driveway and landscaping projects because truckload pricing and delivery reduce per-ton cost; Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and we arrange local supplier delivery. Local pickup can be cheaper for very small amounts if you have a truck and trailer, but you’ll pay per-ton retail at landscape yards and take on loading labor. For most homeowners in Selma, ordering a delivered load through Hello Gravel gives the best balance of price and convenience.
Most local suppliers work with contracted trucking fleets to deliver; Hello Gravel typically delivers by tri-axle dump truck and requires a 3-ton minimum order. Some suppliers or independent contractors offer tailgate spreading or small-scale installation, but this is performed at the driver or contractor’s discretion and is not guaranteed; request spreading in the order notes and we will pass it to the supplier. Standard lead time is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery possible for orders placed before noon CST for an added fee.
Light-colored limestones, tan gravels, and crushed granite tend to fade less noticeably and reflect heat better than dark basalt, which can show sun bleaching and look chalky over time. Choose dense, hard stones (limestone, granite) rather than soft, weather-prone rocks for lower dust and slower breakdown. Keep in mind that natural regional variations occur, so request local photos or describe your color preference in Order Notes when you place your Hello Gravel order.
Yes, many local suppliers and contractors can offer practical recommendations on depth, edging, compaction, and weed-control strategies and provide firm quotes for materials and delivery. Hello Gravel’s sales team can connect you with trusted local suppliers and provide a detailed material-and-delivery quote based on your measurements and zip code. For installation work beyond delivery, suppliers may refer you to local installers who can provide written estimates.
Prepare a firm base by removing organic soil, grading to promote drainage away from structures, and installing geotextile fabric where clay soils are present to reduce migration. Use edging (timber, steel, or stone) to contain material and compact in 2-3 lifts rather than one deep dump to improve stability. Periodic top-ups, regrading, and spot compaction after heavy rains will keep surfaces functional in West Texas weather.
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.
