Why Baytown Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Baytown is a city of 125,471 residents within the Houston-The Woodlands metro area, which has a population of 2.5+ million. The area is growing at a rate of 1.00% annually and sits in a warm, subtropical setting with 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall. That combination of sun, seasonal heavy rains, and coastal plain geography drives steady demand for durable, well-draining materials. Homeowners here commonly need aggregates for driveways, base layers for pavers, French drains, and erosion control. Gravel is often chosen because it stabilizes surfaces, improves runoff after storms, and offers an economical, low-maintenance option that works with local soils and development patterns.Popular Projects in Baytown This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Baytown gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Baytown.
Gravel prices in Baytown reflect local supply, transport, and material type, so costs vary by size and source. Buying bulk by the ton through a service like Hello Gravel is usually cheaper than bagged material once you account for a minimum order (3 tons) and delivery, and we can provide local quotes so you know total price upfront.
Pea gravel is small, rounded stones about 1/8" to 3/8" ideal for pathways and decorative uses, while river gravel is larger and rounded with more size variation and is often used for drainage and landscape accents. In the Baytown area you may see color and smoothness differences due to local sourcing, so choose pea gravel for walking comfort and river gravel where larger drainage stone is needed.
Mixing sand with gravel can help short-term compaction, but it may not create a durable driveway surface—crushed stone with fines or a properly engineered base is better for long-term stability. Because Baytown soils can be clayey and hold water, a compacted base, good drainage, and the right gradation of stone are more important than simply adding sand.
Yes—used as a subbase or in raised beds, gravel improves drainage by creating channels for water to move away from plant roots and structures. Gravel does not improve soil fertility, so add topsoil or organic matter where you want plants to grow and use gravel mainly for drainage and structure.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is about 0.5 cubic feet and will cover roughly 6 square feet at a 1-inch depth or about 3 square feet at a 2-inch depth. For larger Baytown projects it is almost always more cost-effective to order bulk tons rather than many bags.
Buying bulk tons delivered by truck is the most cost-effective option for yards and driveways in Baytown, because unit price drops significantly compared to bagged material. Use Hello Gravel to check local supplier pricing, factor in delivery fees and minimums (3 tons), and compare the delivered total to bag prices when planning small jobs.
Yes—installing a compacted base (crushed stone), geotextile fabric, and edge restraints will prolong the life of your gravel surface by reducing mixing with underlying soil and controlling spread. In Baytown, where heavy rains and a high water table are common, proper base and drainage are especially important to prevent rutting and sinking.
You can place gravel directly over dirt for a temporary solution, but it will mix with soil, sink, and become uneven quickly, especially after heavy Gulf Coast rains. For a lasting surface in Baytown, prepare and compact a base, use landscape fabric, and order adequate depth of stone.
Gravel can reduce moisture around foundations and discourage some pests like fleas and ticks that prefer moist organic debris, but it will not eliminate insects. Keep landscape debris trimmed, maintain a clean border, and address moisture sources for the best pest reduction in Baytown's humid climate.
In Baytown you may see gravel shift, form ruts, and splash mud onto surfaces during heavy rain, and weeds can grow through if the base or fabric fails. Near the coast, salt spray and moist air can affect nearby materials, and ongoing maintenance like raking, topping up, and weed control is often needed.
For decorative paths and patios, 3 to 4 inches of gravel over a compacted base is common, while driveways typically require 6 to 8 inches of compacted crushed stone base with a top layer of 2 to 3 inches of finish gravel. Given Baytown's clay and drainage concerns, proper compaction and a geotextile barrier are recommended to prevent settling.
Standard delivery generally requires 2 or more business days, while next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries come by dump truck (usually tri-axle), minimum orders start at 3 tons, and tailgate spreading can be requested but is performed at the driver's discretion.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
