Why Bowie Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bowie, West Texas, has a city population of 9,060 and sits within a metro area of 2.5+ million, growing at a steady rate of 0.80% annually. With 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, local homeowners face a climate of strong sun punctuated by occasional downpours. That combination drives demand for durable, well-draining materials: driveways that resist rutting, landscape beds that shed water, and pathways that stay stable under high UV exposure. As Bowie expands, both DIY projects and small-scale construction increasingly call for quality aggregates that balance appearance, drainage, and long-term performance under local conditions.Popular Projects in Bowie This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bowie gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bowie.
In West Texas near Bowie, a ton of common crushed gravel typically ranges from about $25 to $60 per ton depending on the material (crusher-run, washed, or base rock). Decorative or specialty gravels can cost more, often $60 to $100+ per ton. Exact pricing and delivery are shown at checkout so you see the total before you buy.
A common tri-axle dump truck delivers roughly 10 cubic yards of material (about 14 tons, depending on the material). Multiply the per-ton price by the truck load and add any delivery fee to estimate cost; for example, at $40 per ton a 14-ton load would cost about $560 plus delivery. Hello Gravel shows material and delivery charges up front and has a 3-ton minimum for most deliveries.
River rock (river gravel) is rounded, larger, and mixed-size stone that comes from natural river deposits and is chosen for its smooth look and drainage. Pea gravel is much smaller (pea-sized, typically 1/8" to 3/8"), also rounded, and used for pathways, patios, and play areas where a fine, uniform finish is desired. In West Texas you may see regional color and size variations because materials are locally sourced.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic foot. At 2 inches depth it will cover about 3 square feet; at 1 inch depth it will cover about 6 square feet. For larger areas in Bowie you’ll usually save money ordering bulk material rather than lots of bags.
Buying bulk delivered material from a local supplier is usually the most economical option in West Texas because price per ton drops significantly compared with bagged gravel. Choose common local materials (crusher-run or base rock) and use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers and delivery fees to find the best total price. For very small quantities, bags from a home center may still be cheaper despite the higher per-unit cost.
Avoid pea gravel where you need a stable, compacted surface—driveways with heavy vehicles, steep slopes, wheelchair-accessible paths, or areas where gravel will be tracked into the house. Pea gravel shifts under traffic and can migrate over time unless contained with edging and a good base. For load-bearing or steep applications consider crushed stone or compactable base material instead.
Yes. West Texas and the surrounding North Texas region are served by local quarries and aggregate suppliers, though exact materials and availability vary by site. Enter your zip code on Hello Gravel to see nearby suppliers, current materials available, and delivery options for Bowie.
Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and standard delivery is scheduled 2+ business days from order; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Many deliveries in populated areas are free or low-cost, but remote or long-haul deliveries may have surcharges—typical local delivery fees in West Texas often fall between free and $75, with higher charges possible for long distances. Exact fees appear at checkout so you know the total before completing the purchase.
Use this quick formula: cubic yards = area (sq ft) x depth (inches) / 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to get tons (approximate). For example, a 12 ft x 40 ft driveway (480 sq ft) at a 3-inch top layer needs about 4.4 cubic yards, roughly 6.2 tons. For driveways plan on a compacted base of 4-6 inches of crusher-run or base rock with a 2-3 inch surface layer of gravel for best durability in Bowie’s climate.
For very small projects (under about 0.5 cubic yard) bagged gravel can be convenient, but it costs more per cubic foot. For anything larger than a half cubic yard or when you want lower per-unit cost, bulk delivery is almost always cheaper; note Hello Gravel’s minimum is 3 tons, so for small bulk needs you can compare local suppliers or combine orders with neighbors. Bags are easiest for spot fixes or when you need immediate small amounts without scheduling a delivery.
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.
