Gravel in Raymondville, TX

Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order for bulk delivery. Standard delivery is 2+ business days with many orders qualifying for free delivery; fees for remote addresses or difficult access can range from about $0 to $75 or more depending on distance and supplier.

For West Texas driveways, angular crushed stone (3/4u0022 to 1u0022) or crusher-run mix is usually best because it locks together and compacts well for a stable driving surface. Pea gravel and river rock look nice but tend to shift and scatter under vehicle traffic, so they are better for decorative areas or low-traffic paths. Local caliche or base materials may also be a cost-effective option in some parts of West Texas, but check compaction and drainage needs first.

Prices vary with type and season, but in the South Texas region you can typically expect crushed stone or crusher-run in the $20 to $45 per ton range (roughly $25 to $60 per cubic yard). Pea gravel and decorative stone are often higher, commonly $30 to $60 per ton. These are ballpark ranges—enter your zip code on Hello Gravel for supplier-specific, up-to-date pricing and delivery cost.

For a 20 ft wide driveway, per 100 ft of length you need about 12.3 cubic yards for a 2u0022 depth and about 24.7 cubic yards for a 4u0022 depth. That converts to roughly 17 to 21 tons at 2u0022 depth and about 34 to 42 tons at 4u0022 depth, depending on material density. Per linear foot, expect about 0.12 cubic yards (0.17–0.21 tons) for every 1 ft of length at 2u0022 depth, so scale up by your driveway length.

Raymondville city and Willacy County generally allow gravel driveways, but rules can vary by zoning, floodplain, or subdivision covenants. Homeowners associations often have their own standards for appearance and surfacing, so check your HOA covenants if you belong to one. We recommend contacting Raymondville City Hall or Willacy County permitting office and reviewing any HOA rules before ordering material.

For most driveways, bulk delivery is the most cost-effective option because the per-ton price is lower and delivery handles large quantities in one load (Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons). Bagged gravel is convenient for small projects but becomes expensive for larger areas. Hiring a contractor adds labor and equipment costs—worth it if you need grading, compaction, or full installation services beyond material delivery.

Raymondville soils can include clay and caliche; we recommend removing vegetation, establishing good drainage, installing geotextile fabric over soft spots, and laying a compacted 3u0022 to 6u0022 base of crushed stone before surfacing. Proper compaction with a plate compactor or roller significantly improves longevity. Hello Gravel supplies the materials and coordinates delivery; we do not guarantee installation services, though drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion.

Some local suppliers or independent contractors in the Raymondville area will spread and compact material, but Hello Gravel only arranges delivery; tailgate spreading by the driver may be possible on request and is performed at the driver's discretion. Installation costs vary with driveway size and scope—simple spreading and compaction for a single-car driveway often ranges from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on access, equipment, and local labor rates. We recommend getting 2–3 local quotes to compare services and pricing.

For a 100 sq ft walkway at 2u0022 depth you need about 16.7 cubic feet of material, which is roughly 33 50-lb bags (assuming a 50-lb bag is about 0.5 cubic feet). At 1u0022 depth you would need about 17 bags. Many suppliers offer bag delivery to Raymondville—check Hello Gravel checkout or contact our team to see bag availability and pricing in your zip code.

Hello Gravel sources materials from regional suppliers across South Texas and will show the closest options when you enter your zip code; local quarries or pits near Raymondville can sometimes offer lower freight costs. Same-day delivery may be possible in some nearby areas but is not guaranteed—availability depends on supplier inventory and truck schedules, so request a quote and preferred delivery date during checkout.
