Gravel: Built For West Texas Drainage • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Scheduling
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 Falls City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Falls City has a city population of 2,370 and a metro area population of 3,627. With a steady growth rate of 0.20% annually, the community balances small-town scale with ongoing home and property upkeep needs. The local climate—about 226 sunny days per year, 31.89 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—shapes how homeowners build and maintain outdoor spaces. In this environment, projects that control runoff, reduce maintenance, and withstand heat and sun are common. That is why many Falls City homeowners look for reliable, locally sourced aggregates: to stabilize driveways, improve yard drainage, create low-maintenance landscape beds, and prevent erosion on slopes where heavy rain occasionally concentrates.Popular Projects in Falls City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Falls City gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Falls City.
Prices vary by material and distance, but expect roughly $25 to $60 per ton delivered for common gravels in rural West Texas areas like Falls City. Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and may include free delivery in some areas; additional fees can apply for long hauls or difficult access. For an exact price, enter your zip code on our site or contact our sales team.
Crushed limestone or crushed aggregate (3/4" minus) is commonly recommended in Falls City for its angular shape and good compaction. Aggregate base as a lower layer with a crushed stone topcoat provides a durable surface; pea gravel is fine for walkways but tends to migrate and is less ideal for driveways. Regional sourcing means color and exact texture may vary locally.
Tons depend on area and depth, but a quick rule is: 12' x 50' driveway at 3" needs about 8 tons; a 20' x 50' driveway at 4" needs about 17 tons; a 12' x 12' patio at 2" needs roughly 1.5 tons. Hello Gravel’s material calculator uses square footage and depth to give a tailored estimate, and remember our minimum order is 3 tons.
Hot, dry summers can loosen fines and create dust while heavy seasonal rains may wash out unprotected areas and cause rutting. Good drainage, proper base preparation, and periodic regrading reduce washout and compaction loss. Choosing angular crushed stone and maintaining a crown on driveways helps shed water and lengthen performance.
Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers (typically tri-axle). Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion—request it at checkout—but spreading is not guaranteed and depends on site safety and access. Rural drives may incur extra fees if access is tight or requires long backing or off-road travel.
Labor and equipment costs vary by site complexity; for a standard 12' x 50' driveway, expect contractor install costs in the ballpark of $800 to $3,000 in rural West Texas, excluding material. Factors that increase cost include heavy grading, culvert installation, long haul distances, and need for geotextile or machine compaction. Get local bids for precise pricing based on your property conditions.
Many rural properties in the Falls City area have few homeowner restrictions, but county and city rules can apply for driveway approaches, culverts, or work near public roads. Always check Falls City Hall and Atascosa County road or planning offices before altering a driveway to confirm any permit or setback requirements. If you belong to an HOA, review their covenants as well.
Gravel usually has the lowest upfront cost but higher ongoing maintenance like periodic regrading and topping every 1 to 3 years. Asphalt and concrete cost more upfront—often several times the gravel price—but generally need less frequent surface work; asphalt may need resurfacing in 10-15 years, while concrete can last longer with higher initial cost. Consider your budget, traffic, and willingness to maintain when choosing a surface, and get local quotes for precise comparisons.
For rural driveways in Falls City, a common recommendation is 4 to 6 inches of compacted aggregate base topped with 2 to 3 inches of crushed stone surface, installed over proper subgrade and, when needed, a geotextile fabric. Compact each layer well and create a slight crown to encourage water runoff. Proper grading and drainage are more important than surface thickness alone to avoid washboarding.
Maintenance frequency depends on traffic and weather, but plan on light maintenance—raking, filling ruts, and regrading—annually, and a top-up of 1 to 2 inches of surface stone every 1 to 3 years for typical residential use. High-traffic or heavily washed areas may need attention more often after storms. Keep a small reserve of material on hand or order a delivery-sized top-up (Hello Gravel minimum 3 tons) when needed.
Order an angular crushed stone such as 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed aggregate base; these materials lock together and compact well for driveways and high-traffic areas. Avoid smooth, rounded pea gravel for driveways since it shifts and does not compact firmly. Add a coarser base layer under the finish stone for best long-term performance.
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.
