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 Beach City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Beach City is a growing West Texas community with a city population of 1.0+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, ongoing residential and light-commercial projects are increasing demand for durable, low-maintenance surfacing and drainage materials. The local climate—about 228/year sunny days and a hardiness zone of 8b—combined with seasonal rainfall patterns, means homeowners need aggregates that stand up to sun exposure, occasional heavy downpours, and variable soil conditions. Gravel is a straightforward, cost-effective choice for pathways, driveways, French drains, and erosion control where long-term stability and simple maintenance matter most.Popular Projects in Beach City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Beach City gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Beach City.
Pea gravel is great for decorative beds and low-traffic paths, but avoid it for driveways, steep slopes, or areas where you will mow or push a wheelbarrow. In Beach City and nearby West Texas neighborhoods, pea gravel can shift and migrate on loose soils, so choose crushed stone or a stabilized product for heavy use or steep grades.
A gravel supplier sources material that reflects local geology and coordinates delivery to your site. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers, handles scheduling, provides pricing, and delivers to your address (minimum order 3 tons).
Yes, you can put gravel directly on dirt for some landscaping uses, but preparation matters: remove large debris, grade and compact the soil, and consider a geotextile fabric to reduce mixing and weed growth. In the Beach City/West Texas area, soil type will affect how deep you need to compact, so ask our team for local prep tips.
A good rule of thumb is 2-3 inches for decorative areas, 3-4 inches for walkways, and 4-6 inches for driveways or areas with vehicle traffic. In Beach City, factors like local soil stability and traffic may push you to the higher end of those ranges, so plan on more depth for sandy or poorly compacted soils.
Contractors commonly charge for the material by the ton plus a labor or installation fee that may be hourly or per square foot. In this region you should expect separate charges for delivery (minimum 3 tons), optional spreading, and any site prep; get written quotes to compare total costs.
Pick gravel by function: pea gravel for decorative beds, crushed stone for driveways and paver bases, and larger river rock or drainage rock for water management. Consider appearance, how much traffic the area gets, and local conditions around Beach City—contact our team to see which types are commonly available nearby and to request samples.
Yes, gravel is often used in French drains, dry creek beds, and as backfill around pipes to improve drainage. For Beach City properties with heavy storms or high water flow, use larger, clean drain rock (1/2" to 2") and install geotextile fabric and proper slope to direct water away from structures.
You can, but it is not ideal: grass will continue to grow up through the gravel and the layer will be uneven unless you remove the sod first. For best results in Beach City, remove the top sod, level and compact the area, lay fabric if needed, then spread gravel to the recommended depth.
A quick estimate is that 1 ton of gravel covers roughly 80 to 100 square feet at a 2-inch depth, though coverage varies by stone type and moisture. For accurate quantities, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team with your area dimensions and desired depth—we'll factor in local material density and compaction.
Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days after ordering, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; minimum orders are 3 tons and deliveries are by contracted dump trucks. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform that service at their discretion; we recommend adding site notes and ensuring a clear drop zone for the truck.
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.
