Gravel in Angelina County, TX

Delivered gravel prices in Angelina County vary with material type, distance, and supplier. As a rough guideline for East Texas, delivered bulk gravel often runs between $25 and $60 per ton depending on whether it is recycled, crushed stone, or decorative rock; exact pricing is available when you enter your zip code on Hello Gravel. Remember suppliers may add fees for long hauls or special materials, so request a delivered quote for an accurate price.

Suppliers in the Lufkin/Angelina County area commonly use tri-axle dump trucks that carry roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards of gravel, which translates to about 12 to 18 tons depending on the stone density. Smaller single-axle trucks and larger end-dump trucks are also used but are less common for residential jobs. If you need a specific truck size, note it in your order or ask our team when you request a quote.

A full truck cost equals the per-ton price times the truck's tonnage, plus any delivery or access fees. For example, if delivered gravel is $40/ton and the truck holds 14 tons, material cost is about $560 before fees; additional charges for next-day delivery, long distance, or limited-access sites may apply. Use Hello Gravel to get an exact delivered truckload price for your address in Angelina County.

Assuming a typical one-car driveway width of 10 feet and length of 20 feet, you need about 1.8 cubic yards (20 x 10 x 0.25 / 27). That is roughly 2.5 to 3 tons of gravel depending on stone density, so it meets Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum in most cases. If your driveway is wider or you want a thicker layer, increase quantities proportionally and use our material calculator for an exact figure.

Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers who serve Lufkin and Angelina County rather than selling directly under a single brand name.

Enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team to see the exact suppliers serving your address and their minimums.

Standard delivery is scheduled for 2+ business days after ordering; next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Many local deliveries are free, but some properties may incur extra fees for long-distance hauls, tight access, or weekend requests. You can select your preferred delivery date at checkout and see any applicable delivery fees before you confirm.

One cubic yard of gravel typically weighs 2,400 to 2,800 pounds and usually exceeds the safe payload of most consumer pickup trucks. Most full-size pickups can safely carry roughly 1,000 to 2,000 pounds (about 0.4 to 0.8 cubic yards of gravel) depending on the truck's payload rating. For larger amounts or safe transport, order delivery from Hello Gravel or consult your truck's owner's manual for exact payload limits.

Three inches of gravel will help suppress weeds short term, but in East Texas's warm, wet climate it is often not enough for long-term weed control. For better results combine a 3- to 4-inch gravel layer with a quality weed barrier or geotextile fabric and routine maintenance; for driveways and high-traffic areas consider 4 to 6 inches of compacted base rock beneath the top dressing. Always have the driver assess the site before spreading and consider professional installation for long-term performance.

#3 gravel is a larger crushed stone, generally about 1 to 3 inches in size, commonly used for drainage and base layers rather than as a finished surface. For driveways in Angelina County, a common approach is 4 to 6 inches of larger base stone (#3 or #2) topped with 2 to 3 inches of 3/4u0022 crushed stone or #57 as a wearing surface. Regional availability varies, so confirm specific sizes with the supplier when you order through Hello Gravel.

Labor and equipment costs vary by site conditions, but for a small 20-foot driveway you can expect grading, base preparation, and compaction to range from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars.
