Why Big Spring Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Big Spring is a West Texas city with a population of 24,297 and a steady annual growth rate of 1.13%. Sitting in a semi-arid landscape that averages 228 sunny days per year and receives 34.25 inches of rainfall annually, and located in USDA hardiness zone 8b, the area’s climate and development patterns shape strong demand for durable, low-maintenance aggregates. Residential growth and infrastructure needs mean homeowners often need reliable materials for driveways, drainage channels, patios, and base layers for outbuildings. Gravel is a common choice because it provides dependable drainage, resists heat-related shifting, and offers a cost-effective surface that contractors can compact to support vehicle loads—important where local soils may include clay or caliche and where long-term performance matters.Popular Projects in Big Spring This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Big Spring gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Big Spring.
Local prices vary by type and supplier, but typical ranges in West Texas are: crushed limestone $25-45 per ton (about $30-60 per cubic yard), river rock $45-80 per ton, and decomposed granite $30-60 per ton. Exact price depends on local availability, truck size, and whether delivery or spreading is included. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and will show supplier-specific pricing at checkout.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons; many local suppliers follow similar minimums. Standard delivery is included in many areas with a 2+ business day lead time, but remote locations, small loads, or requests for next-day delivery (if ordered before noon CST) may incur extra fees. Access limitations, long driveways, or required permits can also add charges.
For driveways and high-traffic areas, angular crushed stone (3/4" crushed limestone or 3/4"-1" crushed gravel) provides good compaction and resistance to rutting. For decorative areas, decomposed granite or stabilized gravel can reduce dust, while river rock is better for drainage features rather than driveways. In all cases consider a geotextile and proper drainage to handle occasional heavy rains.
Basic installs with grading, geotextile, and a compacted base typically range from about $2 to $5 per square foot, depending on site access, depth, and slope. Simple regrading and adding a topcoat are cheaper, while full excavation, drainage work, or retaining walls increase costs. Get a local site estimate because soil conditions and access in Big Spring greatly affect labor costs.
Use this quick method: Area (sq ft) x Depth (inches) / 324 = cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to convert to tons (varies by material density). Round up 10-15% for compaction and waste. Example: a 20' x 10' patio at 3" deep = (200 x 3) / 324 = 1.85 yd3 ≈ 2.4 tons, so order about 2.7-3 tons to be safe.
Expect light maintenance like raking and filling low spots every 6-12 months, with regrading every 1-3 years depending on traffic and storms. Add a fresh topcoat or replenish material every 3-7 years for driveways; heavily used areas may need topping more often. In West Texas the dry, windy conditions can increase dust and movement, so monitor edges and drainage after heavy rains.
City rules vary and some Big Spring HOAs have guidelines on material type, color, or visibility from the street. Always check your HOA covenants and contact the City of Big Spring planning or building department before major changes. When in doubt, request documentation or written approval to avoid fines or required removals.
Yes — polymer binders, resin stabilizers, and geotextiles are available locally or through contractors and can cost from roughly $0.50 to $6.00 per square foot installed depending on the product and installation method. They reduce dust, limit migration, and improve durability, which is useful in West Texas’ dry, windy climate, but upfront costs are higher than loose gravel. Evaluate expected traffic and budget, and ask suppliers for performance data and local references.
Gravel can work on mild slopes, but on slopes steeper than about 6%-8% you should use stabilizing measures like geogrid, strong edging, terracing, or small retaining walls to prevent washout and migration. For steep or high-traffic slopes use angular, compactable material and consider professional installation to ensure proper drainage. In areas prone to heavy runoff after storms, retaining structures and drainage channels are often necessary.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers serving Big Spring; look for suppliers with multiple recent deliveries, customer reviews, and clear pricing. When vetting installers ask for insurance, references, examples of local projects, material source, and whether they provide spreading and compaction. Request a written quote that lists material type, depth, delivery fees, and any extra charges for access or spreading.

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.
