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 Crowell Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Crowell (population 900) is a small but steady community in West Texas with a measured growth rate of 0.40% annually. Located in a semi-arid zone with 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners here balance long, sunny stretches with occasional heavy rains. That climate drives demand for dependable, low-maintenance materials: gravel provides reliable drainage on driveways, stabilizes walking paths, reduces erosion on sloped yards, and supports xeriscape or drought-tolerant plantings. As properties evolve—new driveways, repair work after storm events, or simple landscape refreshes—residents and local contractors look for aggregates that stand up to heat, shed water quickly, and require minimal upkeep. Gravel performs particularly well in Crowell because properly sized, well-graded stone encourages infiltration during rain events and resists rutting during dry, dusty seasons. Its permeability helps prevent pooling after storms, while color and texture compatibility with local soils keeps projects looking natural in a semi-arid setting. Hello Gravel simplifies sourcing by connecting homeowners with local suppliers and haulers, offering transparent pricing and scheduled delivery so materials arrive when you need them. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if you need help, and our team can advise on the best gravel type for driveways, drainage swales, and landscape beds specific to Crowell conditions.Popular Projects in Crowell This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Crowell gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Crowell.
Expect a delivered price range rather than a fixed number: common base gravels and crushed limestone often run about $25 to $70 per ton delivered in small West Texas towns, while decorative rock and specialty mixes can cost more. Final cost depends on material type, distance from the quarry, delivery size (Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons), and whether you choose next-day delivery or additional services. Use our checkout to see an exact price for your zip code or contact our team for a quote.
Crushed limestone is popular for Crowell driveways because it compacts well and provides good traction, but it can generate dust in dry conditions. Pea gravel and rounded river rock look attractive and drain well, but they shift more under vehicle traffic and need edging. A crushed angular mix (3/4" minus) is a common compromise for driveways: it locks together better and needs less topping than rounded gravel.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers serving Crowell and surrounding West Texas towns so you get materials sourced nearby. Enter your zip code on our site or call our team, and we will show available materials, prices, and delivery options from vendors in your area.
Hot, dry, and windy conditions in Crowell increase dust and speed surface breakdown of fines, so mixes with a higher percentage of angular crushed stone or added fines can reduce movement and dust. Polymer stabilizers, small amounts of fines, or regular light watering help control dust but may change the look of the gravel. Also consider windbreaks, edging, and proper depth to limit erosion from gusts.
Use area x depth to estimate: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in feet) / 27, then multiply by about 1.4 to convert cubic yards to tons (typical gravel density). Examples: single-car (10 ft x 20 ft) at 3" deep needs ~1.9 cubic yards or ~2.7 tons; two-car (20 ft x 20 ft) at 3" needs ~3.7 cubic yards or ~5.2 tons. A 3,000 sq ft area at 2" depth needs ~222 cubic yards? Correction: (3,000 x 0.167) / 27 = 18.5 cubic yards, which is ~26 tons. Always round up and allow 5-10% extra for compaction and grading; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum.
For basic material delivery and DIY spreading, plan on the delivered material cost plus any tool rental. If you hire a contractor for site prep, grading, base rock and finish gravel, expect total installed costs commonly in the range of $2 to $6 per square foot depending on site access, soil condition, and prep work. Get multiple local bids because costs vary with how much grading, drainage work, and compaction is required.
Gravel driveways typically need light maintenance every 6 to 12 months (raking, filling ruts) and a top-up of 0.5" to 2" every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic and weather. After heavy storms you may need to regrade and replace washed-out sections; high-traffic areas will compact and lose fines faster in West Texas heat. Simple annual grading and adding a few tons of material when low will keep a driveway serviceable for many years.
For drainage, use a layered approach: a compacted base of 3/4" crushed stone for structural support, topped with a coarser gravel or 1" to 2" washed rock to promote runoff. Geotextile fabric under the stone helps prevent mixing with local caliche or clay soils common in West Texas and improves long-term stability. For steep or erosion-prone areas, larger rip-rap or gabion rock may be needed and a civil contractor can advise on sizes.
Gravel is usually the lowest upfront cost and is easy to repair or expand, but it requires ongoing maintenance like grading and topping. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially, provide a smoother surface with less routine upkeep, and generally perform better under heavy, frequent traffic, but they can crack with freeze-thaw or shifting soils and cost more to replace. For many Crowell homeowners with rural lots and lower traffic, a well-prepared gravel driveway is cost-effective and practical.
Common dust-control options include adding a small percentage of fines to the mix, applying water-based dust suppressants, or using polymer stabilizers that bind the top layer and reduce particle movement. Magnesium chloride and similar road-grade dust control products can work on larger private roads but may not be ideal for landscaped areas, so check site needs. Planting windbreaks and installing curbs or edging also reduce wind-driven dust and gravel loss.
Yes. Materials are regionally sourced, so color, texture, and particle shape will reflect local geology; expect variations compared to online photos. Crowell and West Texas soils often include caliche and clay, which can affect drainage and compaction, so plan for proper base preparation and consider geotextile fabric under your gravel. If appearance matters, note color preferences in your order notes so suppliers can suggest the closest match.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes—it's easiest to modify orders before they are dispatched and we'll do our best to accommodate. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout but drivers perform spreading at their discretion for safety, and it is not guaranteed. If the material differs from expectations due to regional variation, contact customer service and see our refund policy for next steps.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
