Why Copperas Cove Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a city population of 37,550, Copperas Cove is a growing West Texas community experiencing steady expansion at about 0.49% annually. The local climate (hardiness zone 8a, roughly 228 sunny days per year and 32.90 inches of annual rainfall) creates demand for materials that handle both long sun exposure and episodic heavy rain. Homeowners and small contractors commonly need aggregates for driveways, drainage trenches, erosion control on sloped lots, patios, and base layers for sheds and pavers. Because local soils can settle unevenly and wash under heavy storms, property owners look for durable, well-graded gravel that promotes drainage, reduces maintenance, and provides a stable, attractive surface. Choosing the right aggregate size and angularity helps projects hold up longer in Copperas Cove’s climate and saves money on future repairs. Gravel options—from 3/4" crushed stone to pea gravel—work well in Copperas Cove’s mix of sun and seasonal rain. Angular crushed gravel is especially useful for driveways and drainage swales because it compacts and sheds water, while rounded pea gravel is a low-maintenance choice for paths and seating areas. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and professional dump-truck delivery so materials reflect regional geology and performance needs. We make ordering simple with transparent pricing, a material calculator, and delivery options starting at 2+ business days (next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST), helping you schedule projects without the usual logistics hassle.Popular Projects in Copperas Cove This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Copperas Cove gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Copperas Cove.
Typical per-ton prices near Copperas Cove vary by type: crusher run $20-$40/ton, crushed limestone $25-$45/ton, and pea gravel $35-$60/ton. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days (next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee); delivery fees often range from $0-$75 depending on distance, site access, and order size.
Local suppliers commonly carry crushed limestone, crusher run (mix of stone and fines), pea gravel, river rock, and decomposed granite or screenings. Because Hello Gravel sources regionally, texture and color may vary, so ask your supplier or add color notes at checkout.
For heavy truck traffic in West Texas, a crushed stone base such as crusher run or 3/4" crushed stone compacted to form a firm base works best because the fines lock the stones together and resist rutting. Use a thicker base (6" or more) and consider a geotextile fabric under the base to improve stability on weaker soils.
Using roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard: a 12x30 driveway (360 sq ft) requires about 5 tons at 3" depth, 6.5 tons at 4", and about 10 tons at 6" depth. A 20x40 driveway (800 sq ft) needs roughly 10.5 tons at 3", 14 tons at 4", and about 21 tons at 6"; Hello Gravel's calculator can convert your exact dimensions and desired depth.
Copperas Cove and West Texas soils often include clay, caliche, and sandy layers that can affect drainage and compaction; poor drainage can cause washouts or sinking. Plan for a crowned surface, good base preparation, and where needed install geotextile fabric or a simple sub-drain to keep water moving away from the gravel.
Suppliers and haulers may offer tailgate spreading at the driver's discretion, while local contractors provide grading, compaction, edging, and full installation. Labor costs vary by scope: expect simple spreading/grading to run roughly $50-$100 per hour, small driveway installs often $300-$1,500, and larger installs $1,000-$4,000 depending on prep and materials.
In hot, dry West Texas you should expect to regrade and top up high-traffic areas every 1-3 years and do light raking after heavy rains. Replenishing usually requires 1-3 tons for spot fixes (material cost $30-$60/ton plus delivery); hiring a contractor for regrading typically costs $100-$300 for small jobs.
Yes; city codes and HOAs can have rules about driveway surfacing, front-yard materials, and drainage or setback requirements. Check Copperas Cove building or planning departments and your HOA guidelines before ordering materials to avoid rework or violations.
Washed gravel has fines and dust removed, giving a cleaner look and better drainage on top layers, while crusher run contains fines that help bind the base and compact more firmly. Washed gravel typically costs more—often $5-$15/ton higher than crusher run—though exact differences depend on supplier and availability.
Gravel is the lowest upfront option (roughly $1-$4 per sq ft installed depending on depth and delivery), asphalt is mid-range ($3-$7 per sq ft), and concrete is highest ($5-$12 per sq ft). Lifespan and upkeep differ: gravel needs periodic replenishing and lasts 5-15 years with maintenance, asphalt typically 15-25 years, and concrete 25-40 years in local conditions, but local drainage and maintenance heavily influence real results.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
