For Medina driveways, crushed rock is usually best because it compacts well and provides a stable surface for vehicles; pea gravel and river rock are decorative but can shift under traffic. Regional soils in West Texas can be rocky and drain quickly, so crushed stone with a compacted base is typically lower maintenance. If you prefer a decorative look, ask about angular crushed variants that lock together better than smooth river stones.

Use the formula tons = area (sq ft) x depth (ft) x 0.05. For a typical 1-car driveway of 200 sq ft, expect about 1.7 tons at 2 inches or 2.5 tons at 3 inches. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so most single-car jobs end up ordering the 3-ton minimum to ensure delivery.

Yes — Hello Gravel coordinates local dump truck delivery (typically tri-axle trucks) to Medina addresses when your order meets local minimums. Cost depends on tonnage, material type, and distance from the supplier; request a delivered price on our site or call for a custom quote. Remember that suppliers and contracted drivers decide placement and any tailgate spreading is at the driver's discretion.

For large projects in Medina, bulk delivery is almost always more affordable and faster; bulk avoids the labor and waste of handling hundreds of bags. 50 lb bags make sense for small patches, planters, or retail availability when you cannot accept a dump truck delivery. Check our minimum order (3 tons) and get a quote to compare bulk cost versus bagged pricing at local stores.

One ton of gravel covers about 120 sq ft at 2 inches and about 80 sq ft at 3 inches. Use these figures to estimate coverage quickly, then round up to allow for compaction and uneven surfaces. Local grading and soil conditions in Medina may require extra depth in spots, so consider ordering a little extra for coverage and settling.

A 50 lb bag contains about 0.02 tons and covers roughly 1.6 sq ft at 2 inches depth (or about 1.1 sq ft at 3 inches). Bags are practical for small landscaping touches, planter beds, or pathways where truck access is limited, but they are inefficient for large areas. For any area larger than a few dozen square feet, bulk delivery is more cost-effective and much faster to install.

Two inches of gravel is generally only a thin surface layer and is best for footpaths or decorative coverings. For a vehicle driveway in Medina, we recommend 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel over a prepared base, and often a thicker base layer of larger stone if subgrade is soft or prone to erosion. Consider local drainage and occasional heavy rains; ordering extra material helps avoid bare spots after settling.

Yes — Hello Gravel offers common types like crushed stone, pea gravel, river rock, and decorative gravels, though specific mixes reflect local geology in Medina. For low maintenance, angular crushed stone or crushed limestone is usually the cleanest because it locks together and reduces tracking and movement. If you need a cleaner, decorative finish, request product photos or add color preferences in Order Notes; keep in mind natural variation is normal.

Standard delivery is 2+ business days after order processing, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Delivery fees for small loads depend on your exact zip code, supplier distance, and whether the truck can safely access your site; get a delivered price in checkout or contact our team to confirm availability and fees. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and drivers will determine placement and any tailgate spreading on arrival.
