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.
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. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Frequently Asked Questions - Sun City gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Sun City.
Delivered gravel prices in West Texas vary by material, availability, and distance. Expect an approximate range of $25 to $60 per ton (about $35 to $85 per cubic yard) delivered, with specialty rock toward the high end; final price depends on type, hauling, and any spreading requested. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and standard delivery is 2+ business days; request a zip-code quote for an exact price.
Crushed limestone is the most common choice for driveways and high-traffic areas because it compacts well and resists washout. Decomposed granite is good for paths and patios where a natural look and firmer surface are desired, while pea gravel and river rock are fine for decorative beds but tend to migrate and are less stable for driveways. Local sourcing means color and texture will vary, so ask for photos or samples when ordering.
Use this rule of thumb: 2" depth = 0.0062 cubic yards (≈0.0086 tons) per square foot; 3" depth = 0.0093 cubic yards (≈0.0130 tons) per square foot; 4" depth = 0.0123 cubic yards (≈0.0173 tons) per square foot. For example, a 1,000 sq ft driveway at 3" depth needs about 9.3 cubic yards or roughly 13 tons. Always round up and order a little extra for compaction and grading losses.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve West Texas; availability varies by zip code. Delivery is typically by tri-axle dump truck and Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; tailgate spreading can be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver’s discretion with no guarantee. If you need guaranteed spreading or precise grading, ask for spreading as a line-item service from a local landscaper or contractor.
Many Sun City HOAs and local jurisdictions have rules about driveway materials, visible rock, edging, and stormwater runoff. Before installing loose gravel, check your HOA guidelines and contact Sun City or county permitting to confirm any setback, drainage, or impervious-surface requirements. If in doubt, save time by requesting documentation from your HOA and including it when requesting quotes.
Installed gravel driveway costs vary with site prep, base materials, and access. Expect a rough range of $2.50 to $6.00 per square foot for a properly prepared driveway (grading, geotextile, base rock, and finish layer), while simple material-only deliveries cost less per square foot. Get multiple local quotes because heavy grading, long haul distances, or erosion control features will raise the price.
Gravel allows water to infiltrate better than paved surfaces but can wash out or migrate if not installed with proper base, slope, and edge restraints. For Sun City, combine a compacted base of larger crushed rock, geotextile fabric, and good grading to shed water to swales or drains; consider reinforced edges and check dams where runoff is concentrated. After major storms inspect and regrade as needed to keep the surface stable.
Routine maintenance includes annual inspection, light grading and raking after storms, and removing weeds or applying a pre-emergent in spring. High-traffic driveways usually need topping up every 1 to 3 years; low-traffic decorative areas may last 3 to 5 years before adding more material. Dust can be reduced with occasional fines or a light tackifier, and proper drainage reduces the need for frequent repairs.
Use a layered approach: larger crushed rock for a stable base, geotextile fabric to limit mixing with subsoil, and a properly sized finish gravel for your use (¾" crushed limestone or decomposed granite for patios). Install edge restraints to prevent migration, confirm drainage paths before delivery, and order a little extra for compaction and grading. For convenience, request delivery through Hello Gravel and ask for local contractor recommendations if you need professional spreading or grading.

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.
