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.
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.

Why San Antonio Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
San Antonio homeowners face a growing need for practical, long-lasting landscaping and site-prep materials as the city expands — city population: 7,130, and the surrounding metro area supports development with a metro area population: 2.5+ million. With a growth rate: 2.50% annually and a warm, sunny climate (Hardiness Zone: 8b, 228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall: 34.00 inches), properties here demand materials that stand up to heavy sun, occasional heavy rain, and periodic intense stormwater flows. That combination of growth and climate drives demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage trenches, patios, and erosion control. Homeowners choose gravel for its affordability, permeability, and ease of installation, especially when projects need quick drainage solutions or low-maintenance surfacing. Gravel is well suited to San Antonio’s conditions: loose, angular stone creates voids that help stormwater infiltrate and reduces mud and pooling on slopes and driveways. Locally sourced gravel reflects regional geology, so color and texture will vary — a practical advantage for matching local landscapes. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and dump-truck delivery, offers clear pricing, and schedules deliveries to fit your project timeline (minimum order: 3 tons; standard delivery: 2+ business days; next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST). Our team helps you pick the right size and quantity so your gravel performs well in the local climate.Popular Projects in San Antonio This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - San Antonio gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in San Antonio.
A single tri-axle dump truck in the West Florida area typically carries about 10 to 14 tons of gravel. Delivered prices in San Antonio, FL commonly range from about $40 to $80 per ton depending on the gravel type and distance, so expect roughly $400 to $1,120 for a full truckload before taxes and fees. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and will give a precise delivered price when you get a quote.
As a rule of thumb, 1 ton of gravel covers roughly 80 to 100 sq ft at 2 inches of depth, and about 65 sq ft at 3 inches. Coverage varies by rock size and compaction, so use the higher end for angular crushed stone and the lower end for rounded rock. For accurate planning, calculate using the depth you want and then ask Hello Gravel for a quote.
Cost depends on depth and material. For 1,000 sq ft at 2 inches depth you would need roughly 10 tons; at 3 inches about 15 tons. At $40 to $80 per ton delivered, plan for approximately $400 to $1,200 for the material plus any delivery or spreading fees; request a quote for an exact number.
Buying in bulk and having it delivered is usually the most cost-effective route for homeowners in West Florida. Recycled crushed concrete or screenings often cost less than new quarried stone, and picking up from a local supplier yourself can save on delivery if you have a truck. Hello Gravel can compare local supplier options and show delivered pricing so you can decide what’s cheapest for your project.
Assuming a typical single-car driveway 12 ft wide by 20 ft long (240 sq ft), you would need about 2.5 to 3 tons at 2 to 3 inches depth. With delivered prices of $40 to $80 per ton, expect roughly $120 to $240 for the gravel material, keeping in mind Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and delivery fees may apply. For a precise price, get a quote with your desired depth and material type.
For a driveway surface, 2 inches is usually too thin—especially in Florida where sandy soils and heavy rain can cause movement. A compacted surface of 3 to 4 inches of clean gravel is more common for driveways, with a 4 to 6 inch crushed stone base recommended for long-term stability. Consider local drainage and soil conditions; Hello Gravel can help you choose an appropriate depth.
A 7x14 dump trailer typically holds about 2 to 3 cubic yards of loose material depending on sidewall height and load limits. That is roughly 2.5 to 4 tons of gravel, depending on particle size and moisture. If you plan to use a trailer, confirm its payload and remember Hello Gravel’s delivery minimum is 3 tons.
With proper installation and routine maintenance (periodic top-ups and regrading), a gravel surface can last 10 to 25 years. In West Florida, heavy rain and coastal storms can move material faster, so expect to add fresh gravel every few years in high-traffic or low-drainage areas. Good edging and correct base thickness will extend the life of the surface.
For a flat 1,000 sq ft area, depth determines quantity: at 2 inches you'll need about 10 tons, at 3 inches about 15 tons, and at 4 inches about 20 tons. Local materials and compaction change amounts slightly, so use these figures as estimates and get a precise calculation when you order through Hello Gravel.
Cost depends on width and depth; for a typical single-lane driveway 12 ft wide and 200 ft long (2,400 sq ft), you need roughly 24 tons at 2 inches or 36 tons at 3 inches. At $40 to $80 per ton delivered, material costs could range from about $960 to $2,880, plus delivery and optional spreading charges. Contact Hello Gravel for a tailored quote including delivery logistics for long drives.
A 10x10 area is 100 sq ft; at 2 inches depth you need about 1 ton of gravel, at 3 inches about 1.5 tons. Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum delivery, smaller jobs may require buying bagged gravel locally or combining orders with another area to meet the minimum. Ask us for options and pricing for small projects.
A 20x20 area is 400 sq ft; at 2 inches depth you'll need about 4 tons, and at 3 inches about 6 tons. With delivered prices of $40 to $80 per ton, expect material costs from roughly $160 to $480, remembering Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum and possible delivery fees. For an accurate price, request a quote with the exact depth and material type.
Recycled crushed concrete is commonly the most affordable alternative and performs well when compacted. Decomposed granite or crushed shells (common in parts of West Florida) can also be lower cost depending on availability, but each option has different drainage and aesthetic properties. Hello Gravel can show local alternatives and pricing so you can compare performance and cost.
In West Florida, simple crushed stone, screenings, or recycled crushed concrete tend to be the least expensive options. Decorative gravels like pea gravel, river rock, or colored stone usually cost more due to sourcing and processing. Prices vary by supplier and distance, so check Hello Gravel for local options and delivered pricing.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
