Gravel: Built For West Texas Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivery For Dawson
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 Dawson Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dawson (city population 1,420) sits in West Texas within a broader metro that includes 2.4+ million residents. With a conservative growth rate of 0.10% annually and a sunny, arid-leaning climate (228 sunny days per year, hardiness zone 8a), the area sees steady, practical development rather than rapid churn. Annual rainfall of 35.87 inches means stormwater management and long-term surface stability matter for yards, driveways, and small construction projects. Homeowners in Dawson often look for aggregates that improve drainage, reduce erosion, and stand up to repeated wet-dry cycles; choosing the right gravel size and angularity helps prevent rutting, weed growth, and washouts while keeping maintenance low. In Dawson’s mix of sun and seasonal rain, gravel is a go-to material for driveways, drainage swales, pathways, and xeriscape beds because it sheds water and tolerates heat exposure. Locally sourced gravel reflects West Texas geology, so Hello Gravel connects you with nearby suppliers and professional dump truck fleets to deliver material suited to local soils and climate. Order online, choose a delivery date, and add placement notes at checkout—our team helps match gravel type to your project while drivers assess on-site spreading feasibility.Popular Projects in Dawson This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dawson gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Dawson.
Delivered prices vary by material and distance to the quarry, but typical ballpark ranges to rural West Texas are: crushed limestone or crusher run $25 to $45 per ton, #57 stone $30 to $60 per ton, and river rock $40 to $90 per ton. A good rule of thumb is 1 cubic yard of gravel equals about 1.4 tons, so multiply the per-ton price by about 1.4 to estimate per-cubic-yard cost. For an exact delivered price to Dawson (zip code check), request a quote on our site—rural delivery distance and load size affect final pricing.
Hello Gravel typically requires a 3-ton minimum order. Delivery is free in many areas but rural West Texas deliveries to Dawson often carry a delivery or long-haul fee depending on distance and road access; fees can range from no charge up to a modest surcharge. If you have tight access or need multiple drop locations, tell us at checkout so we can provide an accurate delivery estimate.
For driveways and rural roads in Dawson, TX, crusher run and crushed limestone are common choices because they compact well and shed water. #57 stone is good for top layers where drainage is important, but river rock is not recommended for driveways because it tends to roll and does not compact. Consider a layered approach: a compactable base (crusher run) with a drainage or surface layer (#57) for durability in West Texas weather.
Use this quick guide: a single-car driveway 12 ft x 20 ft at 3 inches deep needs about 2.2 cubic yards (≈3.1 tons). A two-car driveway 20 ft x 20 ft at 3 inches needs about 3.7 cubic yards (≈5.2 tons). For longer or thicker rural roads and pads, calculate area x depth (in feet), divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 to convert to tons; or use our online material calculator for exact estimates.
They can. County roads and certain bridges near Dawson may have weight or routing restrictions that require permits for heavy trucks. Before scheduling large deliveries, check with the Dawson County road office or let our logistics team coordinate with the hauler to confirm whether any permits or special routing are needed.
Standard delivery lead time is 2 or more business days; next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Rural deliveries to Dawson may require extra scheduling time depending on supplier availability and truck routing, and you can select preferred delivery dates during checkout or by contacting our team.
Some local suppliers and haulers offer limited services such as tailgate spreading, grading, or compaction, but these services vary by provider and are not guaranteed. Hello Gravel coordinates with local suppliers and can request these services on your behalf, but for full installation and dust-control treatments you may need a local landscaping or grading contractor. Ask our sales team for recommendations and a separate quote if you want installation included.
Yes. Extra charges commonly apply for long-haul distances, overweight loads requiring permits, tight or off-road access that takes extra labor or smaller trucks, and deliveries that require staging or multiple drops. When you request a quote, include precise delivery access details so we can account for any surcharges up front.
Seasonal demand, heavy rains, and quarry maintenance can all affect availability and price. Spring and summer typically bring higher demand for landscaping and road work, while heavy rains or extreme heat can slow quarry production and truck routing in rural West Texas. Plan ahead for large projects and check with us for seasonal lead-time expectations.
