Use this quick rule: tons = area (sq ft) x depth (in inches) x 0.00432 (based on average gravel density). Examples: a 10' x 20' single-car driveway (200 sq ft) needs about 1.7 tons at 2u0022, 2.6 tons at 3u0022, and 3.5 tons at 4u0022; a 20' x 20' two-car driveway (400 sq ft) needs about 3.5, 5.2, and 6.9 tons at 2u0022, 3u0022, and 4u0022 respectively. Keep in mind Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons, so small jobs may meet that minimum.

Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons. Many local suppliers offer tiered pricing where per-ton costs drop at quantities like 10 tons, 20 tons, or higher, but thresholds and discounts vary by supplier and material.

Tailgate spreading by the driver may be possible but is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed. Hiring a local crew or equipment to properly spread and compact typically runs about $60 to $120 per hour for labor or roughly $4 to $12 per ton when machine grading is used, depending on site access and scope. Ask for estimates in advance and request spreading in Order Notes so the driver/supplier can plan, but expect to arrange a separate contractor for guaranteed spreading.

Woods Of Shavano is in the San Antonio area and many neighborhoods have HOA rules that can restrict visible rock types, colors, or the use of loose gravel in front yards and driveways. The City of San Antonio may require permits for driveway changes that alter curb cuts or affect drainage. Always check your HOA covenants and call local city permitting before ordering to ensure compliance.

For driveways in this part of Texas, 3/4u0022 crushed limestone or crushed stone mix is common, affordable, and compacts well; it is typically the least expensive option. Decomposed granite and crusher fines are good for patios and paths and are mid-range in price, while decorative river rock or colored gravels are visually appealing but usually the most expensive. Choose based on look, drainage needs, and how much traffic the area will see; request photos or samples in Order Notes if color is important.

Common additional fees include delivery or fuel surcharges, small-order surcharges for orders under the supplier minimum, extra charges for difficult access or long unloading, and fees for next-day delivery. Hello Gravel lists delivery fees up front in checkout and offers free delivery in many areas, but site-specific access issues or special services (like requested spreading) can add costs. We recommend reviewing the order summary before checkout and contacting our team if you see access concerns.

In Central Texas conditions—hot summers, occasional heavy rains, and clay soils—gravel driveways typically need topping or patching every 2 to 5 years, depending on traffic, drainage, and edge containment. High-traffic driveways or those with poor drainage may need annual maintenance, while well-compacted, well-drained installations with good edging can last toward the longer end of that range. Regular maintenance like adding a thin new layer, raking low spots, and keeping vegetation and runoff under control will extend the life of the installation.

Use our material calculator on the product page or apply the quick formula: tons = area (sq ft) x depth (in inches) x 0.00432, then round up slightly to allow for compaction and settling. Enter your zip code to check availability, choose material and delivery date on the site, and add any notes (color preferences, unloading location, spreading request).
