Gravel: Semi-Arid Drainage And Erosion Control • Choose Your Gravel Delivery Date Easily
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 Bulverde Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bulverde, West Texas, is home to 20,180 residents and sits within a rapidly growing region that is part of a metro area of 2.7+ million. The city is expanding at 2.35% annually and experiences a semi-arid climate with 228 sunny days per year and 35.00 inches of annual rainfall, falling in USDA hardiness zone 8b. That mix of sun, occasional heavy rains, and local soils drives steady demand for durable, well-draining aggregates. Homeowners choose gravel for driveways, drainage trenches, walkways, and erosion control because it handles runoff, minimizes maintenance, and complements the xeric landscaping often used in Bulverde yards.Popular Projects in Bulverde This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bulverde gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bulverde.
Delivery fees in Bulverde vary with supplier distance, truck access, and order size. Many local deliveries are free for larger orders or within a short radius, while smaller orders or longer hauls commonly add $25 to $100; remote or hard-to-access sites can be higher. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and will show any delivery charge at checkout for your zip code.
Crushed limestone is the most common choice around Bulverde because it compacts well, controls dust, and stands up to hot, dry summers and occasional heavy storms. Decomposed granite (DG) gives a natural look and drains well but can rut or wash on steep slopes unless stabilized. Pea gravel is decorative and drains well but tends to migrate and is less stable for driveways.
Use the driveway area to estimate: for a typical 2-car driveway of about 400 sq ft, plan roughly 3.5 tons for 2 inches, 5.2 tons for 3 inches, 6.9 tons for 4 inches, and 10.4 tons for 6 inches of gravel (assuming about 1.4 tons per cubic yard). Most residential driveways use 4 to 6 inches of material over a compacted base, so expect roughly 7 to 10+ tons for a standard 2-car driveway in Bulverde. Adjust quantities for your exact dimensions and the specific gravel density supplied in your quote.
Installed costs depend on site prep, material type, and access; a simple material-only job for a 2-car drive (about 7 to 10 tons) can run a few hundred dollars for crushed limestone, while a contractor-installed driveway with grading, geotextile, base rock, and compacting commonly ranges from $1,200 to $4,000. Steep sites, drainage work, and stabilized surfaces push costs higher. Get a local quote through Hello Gravel that shows material and delivery, and ask local contractors for labor estimates.
With proper base and drainage, crushed limestone can last 10 years or more between major refreshes; decomposed granite and pea gravel typically need more frequent topping and regrading. Expect to regrade and add 1 to 2 inches of material every 2 to 5 years depending on traffic and storm runoff. Routine maintenance includes removing weeds, reestablishing crown and edges after storms, and refreshing high-wear areas.
Gravel is usually the cheapest upfront and is permeable, which helps with runoff and local drainage. Asphalt and concrete cost significantly more to install but provide a smoother, longer-lasting surface and lower routine maintenance. For rural Bulverde properties where budget and permeability matter, gravel is a practical choice, while asphalt or concrete better suit heavy use or when a hard, low-maintenance surface is needed.
Suppliers serving Bulverde typically source from quarries in the Hill Country and the San Antonio market, with delivery radiuses commonly between 30 and 75 miles depending on the supplier. Exact suppliers and delivery radiuses vary by material and load size, so check your zip code on Hello Gravel to see available local suppliers and delivery details. If you need longer hauls, ask for an extra-mile charge estimate before ordering.
Permit and HOA rules vary: many rural properties in Comal County won’t need a city permit for replacing or installing a driveway, but subdivisions and HOAs often require design approval or material restrictions. Contact Bulverde city offices and your HOA before starting work to confirm requirements. Hello Gravel recommends checking local rules early to avoid rework or compliance delays.
Start with a compacted subgrade and at least 4 inches of crushed base rock for load-bearing, then add a 2- to 3-inch wearing course of your chosen gravel. Use geotextile fabric on soft soils to reduce mixing, build a slight crown toward the edges for runoff, and install culverts or French drains at low points to handle heavy storm flows common in the region. Proper prep and drainage are the best defenses against washouts after heavy rain.
Yes, crushed limestone is widely used in the Bulverde area because it compacts well and resists washout better than rounded gravels. On steep slopes, combine crushed limestone with erosion-control measures such as terracing, check dams, fabric, and vegetation to slow runoff. Local limestone composition can vary, so ask your supplier for local product photos and recommendations for slope stabilization.

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.
