Gravel: Built For High Plains Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Before Noon
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 Dumas Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Dumas is a West Texas city of 15,010 residents set on broad, open plains and experiencing steady growth at 0.50% annually. Its semi-arid climate—263 sunny days a year and just 19.00 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 6b—shapes how homeowners plan and build. That mix of sun, occasional heavy downpours, and expansive property lots drives demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, pathways, erosion control, and base layers for landscaping. Homeowners in Dumas choose quality gravel to improve drainage, prevent washouts on rural access roads, reduce dusty surfaces, and create low-maintenance yards that stand up to strong sun and temperature swings. Gravel performs well in this environment because it facilitates surface drainage and resists compaction under heavy use, making it a practical choice for both decorative and structural needs. Hello Gravel connects Dumas residents with locally sourced gravel and trusted haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled dump-truck delivery, and a simple online ordering process. Request delivery dates, add color preferences in order notes, and ask about tailgate spreading at checkout so drivers can assess whether it can be done safely on arrival.Popular Projects in Dumas This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Dumas gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Dumas.
In the Dumas area the most budget-friendly options are typically crushed concrete (recycled) or locally sourced crushed limestone. Buying in bulk by the ton and arranging truck delivery through a service like Hello Gravel usually lowers per-ton cost; note our minimum order is 3 tons. For an exact price, request a quote for your zip code and material choice.
In West Texas around Dumas you will commonly find crushed limestone, caliche or crushed stone, pea gravel, and sometimes river rock delivered from regional sources. Appearance and color can vary by supplier because materials are regionally sourced, so add color preferences in Order Notes at checkout. If you need help choosing, our team can recommend a type based on your project.
River gravel is rounded from water transport and comes in mixed sizes and colors, giving a smooth, decorative look and good drainage. Pea gravel is much smaller (pea-sized), also rounded, and is best for pathways, play areas, and decorative mulch. For driveways and areas requiring compaction, crushed stone performs better than either rounded material.
Pea gravel is usually not recommended for vehicle driveways in Dumas because the small, rounded stones move under tire traffic and don't compact well. It works well for patios, garden paths, and drainage areas, but for driveways choose a crushed stone mix with fines or a compactable base for better stability. If you want the look of rounded stone, consider a crushed base beneath a top layer of pea gravel plus edging to reduce migration.
A 50 lb bag of gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic feet (depending on material density). Spread 1 inch deep it covers about 6 square feet, and at a 2 inch depth it covers about 3 square feet. For larger jobs in Dumas it is almost always cheaper to order by the ton and have truck delivery.
A common tri-axle dump truck in our network carries about 10 to 14 tons of loose gravel depending on the material. Pricing depends on material type, tonnage, and delivery distance; Hello Gravel coordinates local suppliers and haulers and can provide a per-truck or per-ton quote for Dumas. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so smaller loads may still be charged at that minimum.
To estimate material, multiply length by width and desired depth. For example, a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth needs about 1.9 cubic yards (roughly 2 cubic yards), which is close to Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum for delivery. Final cost depends on the gravel type, delivery fee, and any spreading services; request a quote for an accurate price for Dumas.
Ordering in bulk by the ton and scheduling dump-truck delivery is the most cost-effective approach in Dumas. Recycled crushed concrete or local crushed limestone usually costs less than decorative stones, and using Hello Gravel lets you compare local supplier rates and delivery options. Also check for next-day or standard delivery fees and order slightly more to avoid multiple deliveries.
Avoid pea gravel where you need a stable, compact surface, such as primary driveways, steep slopes, or areas with heavy equipment traffic. It also migrates without edging, so skip it under pavers or where it could wash into drainage channels during heavy rains. Choose crushed stone mixes when compaction and vehicle stability are required.
Gravel will settle and may shift over time, especially after truck placement, rain events, or vehicle traffic. In West Texas conditions like wind and occasional heavy rain can move loose stone, so compacting the base, adding a proper subbase, using geotextile fabric, and installing edging will reduce movement. Tailgate spreading can be requested but is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed.
Use this simple formula: cubic yards = (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324. To convert to tons multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to 1.6 depending on material density; crushed limestone is often near 1.4 tons per cubic yard. You can also use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for help with exact quantities and ordering based on local material types.
Standard delivery is scheduled for 2 or more business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries arrive by contracted dump truck (typically tri-axle), there is a 3-ton minimum order, and tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion. For pricing, scheduling, or to add order notes about placement or color preference, contact our team or check out the checkout calendar.
Yes. Crushed limestone compacts well, drains adequately, and is commonly used for driveways and base layers in West Texas because it provides a stable surface for vehicles. Regional variations exist, so tell us your intended use and we can recommend the right grade and depth for Dumas conditions.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
