Gravel: Rain-Ready Drainage For Denton Yards • Next-Day Gravel Delivery For Local Projects
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.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Denton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Denton has a city population of 7,910 and is seeing steady development, with a local growth rate of 2.80% annually. The area averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.00 inches of rainfall, and sits in hardiness zone 8b — a mix of sun and periodic heavy rain that affects landscaping and drainage needs. That combination of steady housing activity and variable weather drives demand for durable aggregates: homeowners replacing driveways, building patios, stabilizing slopes, or improving yard drainage all need properly graded gravel that compacts well and moves water away from structures. In a growing market, reliable materials reduce maintenance and help new projects withstand Denton’s seasonal shifts.Popular Projects in Denton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Denton gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Denton.
Delivery cost depends on material type, order size, and distance from local suppliers. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers transparent pricing at checkout for your zip code; many Denton-area orders include free standard delivery. For an exact price, enter your address on our site or contact our team for a quote.
For Denton’s Piedmont/central North Carolina soils, which often have clay content, angular crushed stone (like 3/4" crushed stone or #57) is a good choice because it compacts and locks together for stability. Use a compacted base of larger crushed stone with a finer surface layer for traction and drainage. Avoid only using loose round pea gravel on driveways, since it shifts more on clay and slopes.
A common 2-car driveway (about 20 ft wide by 40 ft long) needs roughly 6-8 cubic yards for a 3-inch surface, and 12-16 cubic yards for a 6-inch base plus surface. Gravel weighs about 1.3 tons per cubic yard, so plan on roughly 8-20 tons depending on depth and prep. Use our material calculator or contact us with your exact dimensions for a precise estimate.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers serving Denton and the West North Carolina area—just check your zip code to see available materials and pricing. You can also source gravel from local quarries or landscape supply yards, but ordering through Hello Gravel simplifies delivery scheduling and transparent pricing. We recommend comparing material photos and asking about regional color/texture before ordering.
Crushed stone is generally better as a compacted base for patios because it locks together and provides a stable, long-lasting surface. Pea gravel can be nice as a decorative top layer or for informal seating areas, but it moves under foot and furniture and may require edging and frequent topping up. For a durable patio in Denton’s climate, use crushed stone base with an optional pea gravel topping if you want the look.
Installation costs vary with site prep, grading, driveway length, and local labor rates. As a rough guide, expect cost factors for excavation, base rock, delivery (minimum 3 tons), compaction, and spreading—get multiple local quotes to compare. Contact our sales team for referrals and to get an itemized estimate for your Denton property.
Gravel can work on slopes, but steep grades need careful design: angular crushed stone, smaller topstone, proper compaction, and good erosion control. On steeper or frequently wet slopes in the Denton area, consider terracing, retaining walls, or check dams and add geotextile fabric to stabilize the base. Drivers may not be able to do tailgate spreading on steep deliveries, so plan for professional spreading if needed.
Yes—properly installed gravel promotes infiltration and reduces surface runoff compared with solid surfaces, which helps in Denton’s heavy summer rains. Performance depends on base design and underlying soil: Denton’s clay-rich soils can slow infiltration, so include a layered base of larger stone and clean crushed rock with geotextile fabric where needed. Good grading and gutters or swales will help route excess water away from structures.
With good base preparation and periodic maintenance, a gravel driveway in Denton can function well for 10+ years before major rehabilitation, with surface refreshing every 3-5 years. Humidity itself doesn’t harm stone, but vegetation growth, washouts from heavy rain, and minor freeze-thaw can cause potholes and rutting if not addressed. Regular grading, adding fresh stone, and fixing drainage issues will extend the life of the driveway.
Weed barrier or geotextile fabric can help reduce weed growth and improve separation between base material and native soil, which is especially useful on Denton properties with organic topsoil. For driveways, a stable woven geotextile under the base stone is recommended to limit mixing and rutting; for decorative yard areas, fabric helps but will not eliminate all weeds. Proper prep, a thick compacted base, and occasional maintenance are still needed.
Measure length, width, and target depth in inches, then use our calculator or ask our team to convert to tons—remember Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum. Account for local regional variations in color and texture and request material photos or notes at checkout; for next-day delivery, place orders before noon CST though standard delivery requires 2+ business days. If you have narrow access, steep driveways, or special spreading requests, note them in Order Notes so our haulers can plan accordingly.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
