Gravel in Northwest Crossing, TX

In Northwest Crossing, gravel prices usually range from about $25 to $60 per ton depending on type (road base vs decorative), supplier, and delivery distance.

Delivery fees or next-day options can change the final cost.

Road-grade gravel in the Northwest Crossing area typically costs roughly $35 to $80 per cubic yard, depending on whether it is recycled road base, crushed limestone, or clean crushed stone. Because densities vary, Hello Gravel lists both ton and yard pricing where available and will factor delivery into the quote.

A standard dump truck load in our service area often contains about 10 to 14 cubic yards (roughly 13 to 18 tons depending on material), and delivered prices usually range from about $400 to $1,200. Exact truckload cost depends on material type, distance from supplier, and whether you need next-day delivery or spreading services; check your zip code on Hello Gravel for a tailored quote.

Volume-wise, one ton of most gravel (about 0.7 to 0.8 cubic yards) will fit in the bed of a full-size pickup, but weight is the limiting factor. Most half-ton pickups do not have the payload capacity for a full ton (2,000 lb), so check your truck's payload rating before hauling; otherwise we recommend professional dump delivery to avoid overloading.

One ton of typical crushed stone in Northwest Crossing is roughly 0.7 to 0.8 cubic yards (about 20 to 22 cubic feet). That will cover about 243 sq ft at 1 inch deep, about 121 sq ft at 2 inches, and about 81 sq ft at 3 inches; adjust based on the depth you plan to install.

A 20 x 20 ft driveway is 400 sq ft. For a typical 3 to 4 inch compacted gravel depth, you will need about 5 to 7 tons of gravel; 3 inches requires roughly 5 to 6 tons, and 4 inches about 7 to 8 tons. Exact quantities depend on gravel type and compaction, and Hello Gravel's material calculator can give a precise recommendation for your project.

Local, low-cost options in the Northwest Crossing area are usually recycled crushed concrete or road base materials and coarse limestone used for sub-base. These materials are less expensive than decorative gravels like pea gravel or colored crushed stone, but they are best for bases and driveways rather than finish landscaping where appearance matters.

Yes. For drainage trenches and French drains in Northwest Crossing's climate, use clean, washed gravel (often 3/4 inch) that allows water to pass freely. For driveways, a layered approach is common: a coarser road base for structure topped with 3/4 inch crushed stone or decorative gravel for the wearing surface.

Because Northwest Crossing experiences hot summers and occasional heavy rains, choose materials that resist washout and settle well when compacted, such as crushed limestone or well-graded road base. Lighter decorative gravels can migrate in heavy storms, so consider edging and proper base preparation to keep material in place.

Standard delivery typically requires 2 or more business days in the Northwest Crossing area, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel confirms delivery windows with your local hauler, and tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver's discretion.
