Why El Paso Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
El Paso has a city population of 751,339 and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, and it is growing at a rate of 0.70% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, about 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and placement in USDA hardiness zone 8b, local conditions combine strong sun with occasional heavy storms and arid soils. That mix keeps demand high for durable, low-maintenance aggregates: homeowners and contractors need materials for driveways, erosion control, drainage improvements, xeriscaping, and new construction bases. Quality gravel helps manage runoff, stabilize surfaces, and reduce long-term upkeep, which is why El Paso homeowners look for locally sourced, well-graded gravel that matches both performance needs and the region's color palette.Popular Projects in El Paso This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - El Paso gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in El Paso.
Prices in El Paso usually range from about $25 to $75 per ton delivered for common gravels; finer materials like decomposed granite or specialty decorative rock can cost more. Final price depends on material type, local supply, delivery distance, and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel lists clear pricing during checkout and a minimum order of 3 tons; next-day delivery is available for an extra fee if ordered before noon CST.
Crushed rock with some fines (crushed limestone or crushed granite) and stabilized decomposed granite tend to perform best in El Paso because they compact well and resist migration in windy, dry conditions. Pea gravel is attractive for low-traffic patios but moves more easily in wind and on slopes, while washed river rock is less stable for driveways. Darker gravels will absorb more heat, so consider color if surface temperature is a concern.
Approximate quantities using a 1.4 tons per cubic yard conversion: a small 2-car driveway (20x20 ft) at 4" compacted needs ~7 tons and at 6" needs ~10 tons. A 12x12 ft patio at 2" depth needs ~1.3 tons (you may need to meet the 3-ton minimum). A 10x20 ft landscaping area at 2" depth needs ~1.7 tons; at 3" depth about 2.6 tons. These are estimates; order a bit extra for grading loss and settling.
El Paso aggregate supply comes from local quarries, landscape yards, and recycled-material yards; many suppliers work with truck fleets to deliver. Typical minimums range from 1 to 3 tons, and Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons. Delivery fees vary by distance and job size—some yards offer free delivery on larger orders while smaller loads commonly carry $50 to $150 fees; Hello Gravel shows delivery options and fees at checkout.
Upfront, loose or compacted gravel is usually cheaper than asphalt and far less expensive than pavers, with material and delivery often costing a fraction of paving. Maintenance for gravel includes periodic regrading, topping up, and dust control; these tasks are generally less expensive but more frequent than asphalt sealing or paver joint maintenance. In El Paso’s dry climate gravel handles heat well, but high-traffic areas may need thicker base material and more frequent replenishment.
Contractors recommend building a firm subgrade, installing a compacted base layer of larger crushed stone (3/4" to 2"), using geotextile fabric for poor soils, and crowning the road to shed water. Proper grade control, drainage (culverts and ditches), and periodic compaction reduce washouts, while applying fines, dust suppressants, or polymer stabilizers can help control dust. Regular maintenance after heavy rains is important even in El Paso’s mostly dry climate.
Lifespan depends on traffic and material: a well-installed driveway typically needs top-up every 3-7 years; low-traffic landscape areas can go longer. Annual minor maintenance (regrading, filling ruts) is often DIY and may cost $50-$200 in materials and rental equipment; professional regrading or adding material can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on area and access. Expect more frequent touch-ups on slopes, driveways, and windy locations.
Crushed rock or decomposed granite that compacts well is usually better in windy El Paso neighborhoods because it locks together and resists wind migration and dust. Pea gravel is comfortable underfoot and decorative but tends to move and collect dust more easily, so it needs edging and more frequent raking or topping. For walkways, consider a compacted base and edging to keep material in place regardless of choice.
Rules vary by neighborhood and HOA—some HOAs have strict guidelines on front-yard materials, colors, and allowed rock sizes, while the City of El Paso may have zoning or stormwater rules that affect larger projects. Before installing, check your HOA covenants and contact city planning or permitting for large driveways or changes that affect drainage. When in doubt, request approval and save documentation to avoid fines or removal orders.
In El Paso, basic contractor labor and compaction for a small driveway or patio installation can range from about $200 to $1,200 depending on scope, access, and prep work; larger jobs increase proportionally. Some contractors charge by the hour ($50-$100+/hour) or by the job, while others quote per ton for spreading and compacting (commonly $5-$20 per ton). Hello Gravel can connect you with local suppliers and haulers; get multiple quotes to compare material, delivery, and installation costs.

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.
