Frequently Asked Questions - Cuero gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Cuero.
Delivered gravel prices in and around Cuero generally fall in a wide range depending on material and distance: expect roughly $25 to $60 per ton, or about $35 to $85 per cubic yard delivered. Installation or spreading by a driver (when available) is usually an extra fee or done at the driver’s discretion; many deliveries through Hello Gravel have a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is included in many areas. For an exact price and any delivery charges, check your zip code on our site or contact our sales team.
In Cuero you will often see crushed limestone and caliche used for driveways because they compact well and are locally available. Pea gravel is popular for decorative beds and patios, crusher run (a mix of stone and fines) is common as a compactable driveway base, and decomposed granite works for paths and low-maintenance patios. Regional sourcing means color and particle shape will reflect local geology, so expect variations.
Hot, dry weather increases dust and can make fine gravels loose, so choosing a coarser surface or mixes with some fines helps reduce dust. Cuero’s clay soils drain slowly and can hold water under the gravel, so plan for a compacted base with good slope and a geotextile underlay to separate the gravel from native clay. Proper base depth and drainage channels or swales help prevent rutting and washouts during heavy rains.
For driveways in Cuero, aim for a 4-6 inch compacted base of crusher run or caliche with an additional 1.5-2.5 inch wearing layer of crushed stone or pea gravel for light vehicles; for heavier trucks increase base to 6-8 inches. Walkways and patios typically need 3-4 inches of compacted base and a 1-2 inch top layer. Always install geotextile fabric over clay, create a minimum 1% slope for drainage, and compact in layers for long-term stability.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which fits many small to medium projects; delivery is by contracted dump trucks (typically tri-axle). Standard delivery is usually 2+ business days with many areas getting free delivery, while next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Exact delivery fees and supplier minimums can vary by material and location, so check your zip code or contact our team for a quote.
Pea gravel and decorative mixes need more frequent topping and regrading and may require attention every 2-5 years in West Texas due to dust and movement. Properly installed crusher run or compacted limestone can last 10-20 years with occasional regrading and spot additions. Expect routine maintenance: periodic raking, adding fresh material every few years, controlling weeds with fabric and pre-emergent, and regrading after heavy storms to prevent ruts.
Calculate volume: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards. For a 12' x 50' driveway (600 sq ft): a 3 inch (0.25 ft) layer = 600 x 0.25 / 27 = about 5.6 cubic yards; a 6 inch (0.5 ft) base = about 11.1 cubic yards. Use a density conversion of roughly 1 cubic yard = 1.4 tons to convert to tons (so 5.6 cy ≈ 7.8 tons, 11.1 cy ≈ 15.5 tons); round up and add 5-10% for compaction and waste.
Regulations vary: the City of Cuero and DeWitt County may have ordinances about driveway approaches, drainage, and stormwater; HOAs can have design covenants restricting visible front-yard surfacing. Before installing gravel in a front yard or changing an approach, check local codes at city hall and review any HOA covenants to confirm permitted materials and required setbacks. When in doubt, request guidance from Hello Gravel’s team and consult your local permitting office.
Gravel usually has the lowest initial cost and better on-site drainage, but it needs more frequent upkeep like regrading and topping. Asphalt has a moderate initial cost and smoother surface but can soften in extreme heat and needs resurfacing every 10-20 years. Concrete is long-lasting if the base is engineered for Cuero’s clay soils, but it has the highest upfront cost and can crack if not properly installed; gravel offers easier, lower-cost repairs and better runoff infiltration.
A good approach in Cuero is a compacted crusher-run base with a coarser wearing surface and a geotextile fabric underlay to separate clay subgrade from the aggregate. Edge restraints, periodic addition of fines or a top dressing, and optional polymer stabilizers or resin-bound products can reduce dust and migration; stabilization grids can also lock stone in place on slopes. Ask for these options at checkout or discuss with our team to match cost and performance for your project.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
