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 East Bernard Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
East Bernard is a small but growing West Texas community (city population: 5,380) within a metro area of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 1.01% annually, a climate that delivers 204 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 44.60 inches, and a hardiness zone of 9a, local homeowners face both strong sun exposure and periods of heavy rain that shape landscaping needs. That combination drives steady demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage, erosion control, and garden projects. Homeowners choose quality gravel to stabilize soil, reduce mud after storms, and create durable surfaces that stand up to local weather while matching neighborhood aesthetics. Because materials are regionally sourced, texture and color can vary with local geology, so selecting the right type matters for performance and appearance.Popular Projects in East Bernard This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - East Bernard gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in East Bernard.
Delivered gravel prices in East Bernard typically vary by material and distance; expect an approximate range of $25 to $60 per ton for common crushed limestone and base gravels. Final price depends on stone type, supplier, and truck access, so contact Hello Gravel for an itemized quote for your zip code. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and taxes or delivery fees may apply.
Common local options include crushed limestone (3/4" and 1/2"), #57 crushed stone, pea gravel, river rock, and screenings. For driveways in East Bernard, angular crushed stone (3/4" or #57) with good interlock is usually best because it compacts and resists rutting; avoid loose, round pea gravel on driving surfaces. Local suppliers may offer mixes suited to West Texas conditions so ask for regional recommendations.
A 20 x 40 ft driveway at 4 inches deep requires about 9.9 cubic yards of material, which converts to roughly 14.8 to 15 tons using a common density of 1.5 tons per cubic yard. We recommend ordering about 10% to 15% extra to account for compaction and grading, so order roughly 17 tons to be safe. If you choose a heavier or lighter stone the tonnage can shift, so check with your supplier.
Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; standard delivery is generally scheduled 2+ business days out with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Many East Bernard deliveries have no additional drop fee, but remote locations, long hauls, tight access, or small orders can incur delivery charges—typical local delivery fees often fall between $0 and $75. We provide exact delivery pricing during checkout so you know total cost up front.
For West Texas conditions choose angular crushed stone with a mix of fines or a well-graded base rock that compacts and resists washout during storms. Use larger stone on slopes for erosion control and a coarse base with a finer wearing surface to minimize dust in dry periods. Adding geotextile fabric and proper grading/crown and drainage will dramatically improve performance in heat, wind, and flash storms.
Permit requirements vary by city, county, and neighborhood; many single-family residential gravel driveways do not need a building permit but changes to curb, culvert, or right-of-way may require authorization from the City of East Bernard or Wharton County. If you live in an HOA, check covenants before ordering because some associations have rules on surface materials and appearance. When in doubt, contact local permitting offices or ask our team to help you confirm requirements before delivery.
Expect light maintenance such as raking and filling low spots every 6-12 months and periodic regrading and adding 1 to 2 inches of new gravel every 3-5 years depending on traffic and weather. Costs vary by quantity and stone type, but routine top-ups for a typical residential driveway often run a few hundred dollars; larger repairs or regrades will cost more. Proper drainage, compaction, and occasional fresh material will keep long-term maintenance lower.
Gravel is the lowest upfront cost option and can be installed quickly, but it requires more regular maintenance and typically lasts 5 to 15 years with upkeep. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but generally last longer—15 to 25 years for asphalt and 25 to 40 years for concrete—and need less frequent routine maintenance. Choose gravel if budget and quick installation are priorities; choose asphalt or concrete for lower long-term maintenance and a smoother finish.
Yes, there are local haulers, landscape contractors, and dirt work crews in Wharton County and nearby towns who handle grading and gravel installation. Hello Gravel can connect you with local suppliers and hauling partners in the area, and we recommend getting at least two quotes and checking references before hiring. Ask contractors about compaction methods, drainage work, and whether they can spread and roll the material after delivery.
Yes—high heat and wind increase dust and cause finer materials to migrate, while heavy, sudden rains can wash away poorly graded stone. Use coarser, angular aggregates with a compacted base, provide a crowned profile and good drainage, and consider dust control products or stabilizers in dry seasons. Installation timing also matters: avoid spreading fine surface material right before forecasted storms to reduce washout risk.
Clear the delivery path of cars, low branches, trailers, and other obstacles and confirm driveway width and any overhead wires so the truck can safely access the drop location. Leave accurate delivery notes and gate codes at checkout, and plan a staged spot for the pile if you need the driver to dump in a particular area; remember many drivers can do tailgate spreading only at their discretion. If you need precise spreading and compaction, arrange for a local contractor to follow the delivery.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and if it is safe to do so; you should request this service at checkout but understand it is not guaranteed. Spreading by the delivery driver is typically basic and not a substitute for professional grading and compaction. For a finished driveway surface, hire a local installer to level and compact the material after delivery.
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.
