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 Farwell Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Farwell has a city population of 1,930 and a metro area population of 1,425, and its steady growth—about 0.40% annually—keeps local projects moving at a measured pace. With a hardiness zone of 7a, an average of 264 sunny days each year, and only 16.70 inches of rainfall, homeowners here prioritize materials that stand up to strong sun, wide temperature swings, and episodic downpours. That combination drives demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage, pathways, and erosion control. Homeowners seek gravel that compacts well, sheds water when needed, and resists washout during storms—qualities that also reduce long-term maintenance in this semi-arid environment. Clear, easy ordering and predictable delivery are especially valuable in a smaller market where sourcing the right material can otherwise take extra time and coordination.Popular Projects in Farwell This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Farwell gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Farwell.
Delivered gravel prices in Farwell vary by material, quantity, and distance from the supplier. Expect a rough range of $30 to $80 per ton delivered for common gravels, with prices toward the higher end if a supplier must travel far into rural Parmer County; check your zip code for exact pricing. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
In West Texas a typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 12 to 16 tons of gravel, although some trucks and materials can push that toward 18 tons; exact capacity depends on the truck and material density. Cost for a single truckload delivered to Farwell depends on per-ton price plus any rural delivery fees, so a single load could range widely; contact Hello Gravel with your address for an accurate delivered, dumped price estimate.
Assuming a common 10-foot driveway width, a 100-ft driveway is 1,000 sq ft. At 2" depth you would need about 9 to 10 tons of gravel, and at 4" depth about 18 to 20 tons, depending on the gravel density. If your driveway is wider than 10 ft, multiply quantities proportionally, and remember to include compacted base rock under the surface for long-term performance.
A 50-lb bag of pea gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic feet and will cover about 6 sq ft at a 1" depth (about 3 sq ft at 2" depth). Bags are convenient for small decorative areas, planters, or touch-ups where only a few bags are needed; for larger areas or driveways you will almost always save money buying bulk by the ton and getting truck delivery. In Farwell, choose bags if you cannot store bulk material or if you need under one-half ton; otherwise order bulk to lower per-ton cost.
River gravel is rounded and smooth, pea gravel is small rounded stones (pea-sized) used for decoration and low-traffic areas, and #57 gravel is a crushed, angular stone about 3/4" in size commonly used for driveways and drainage. For a West Texas driveway, #57 or crushed stone is usually best because its angular shape locks together and compacts for stability, while pea or river gravel tends to shift under vehicle traffic. Use rounded gravels for pathways, landscaping accents, or decorative mulch areas rather than primary driveway surfaces.
No, 2 inches of gravel is generally not enough for a residential driveway in Farwell; it will wear through quickly and rut. We recommend at least 4 inches of compacted surface gravel over a 4- to 6-inch compacted base of crushed rock or road base to build a stable surface that handles Texas weather and occasional trucks. Order base rock (crusher-run or road base) for the sublayer and a topcoat of #57 or similar for the driving surface.
Well gravel (gravel pack) sizes depend on the well screen and local aquifer material, so common specs vary by project and well driller. Many West Texas suppliers can provide well-graded silica or pea gravel packs to spec, but always confirm the required sieve size with your well contractor or engineer before ordering. Contact Hello Gravel and your driller to match the supplier's material to the well design and to confirm delivery logistics to Farwell.
Compacted crushed stone drains well while also forming a stable surface; angular crushed products like #57 or crusher-run provide both drainage and compaction when installed with proper base layers. For dedicated drainage features (French drains, dry creek beds) use washed, clean stone to avoid fines that clog flow; for driveways use a combination of compactable base rock and a draining topcoat of crushed stone. In Farwell's climate, proper base and grading are as important as material choice to keep water moving away from the driveway.
Ordering bulk delivery by truck is usually the cheapest per-ton option if you need multiple tons; full truckloads reduce per-ton hauling costs. Other cost-saving tips for Farwell include choosing local suppliers to reduce haul distance, being flexible on delivery date to fit a backhauls schedule, and ordering full truckloads to avoid multiple minimum-delivery fees. If you only need a few bags or have pickup access, hauling your own can save money for very small jobs, but factor in truck rental and time.
In rural West Texas, delivery costs can add significantly to per-ton pricing because suppliers and haulers factor in travel time and fuel; expect Hello Gravel's standard minimum of 3 tons and 2+ business days for scheduling. Trucking limits (truck size, weight limits, and access constraints) can require smaller trucks or additional drops, which can increase cost, and optional services like tailgate spreading are at driver discretion. For an accurate delivered price to Farwell, enter your zip code or contact Hello Gravel so we can match you with local suppliers and provide a detailed quote.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
