Why Flatonia Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Flatonia, with a population of 3,090, sits within a growing West Texas region and is part of a metro area of 2.5+ million. Local growth at 0.40% annually and a climate of 228 sunny days, annual rainfall of 34.60 inches, and hardiness zone 8b mean homeowners face both sunny, dry stretches and routine seasonal rains. That combination drives steady demand for dependable aggregates: driveways that won't rut in wet weather, landscaping that reduces erosion, and hardscaping that stands up to long sun exposure. Homeowners here look for materials that balance drainage, durability, and low maintenance, so quality gravel is a frequent choice for practical outdoor projects. Gravel works well in Flatonia's environment because it promotes rapid drainage during the region's 34.60 inches of annual rain while resisting sun-related breakdown across 228 sunny days each year. For patios, driveways, walkways, and drainage trenches, locally sourced gravel reflects the area's geology and performs reliably in hardiness zone 8b soils. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offers clear pricing and scheduled delivery, and manages coordination so you get the right gravel for your project without the hassle.Popular Projects in Flatonia This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Flatonia gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Flatonia.
Price varies by gravel type and delivery distance from local suppliers. In the Flatonia area, expect a rough delivered range for common gravels from about $20 to $60 per ton depending on material (pea gravel, crushed stone, river rock) and truck fees. For an exact price for your address and material choice, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote online.
For a 100 ft long driveway, typical examples assume a 12 ft width and 3-inch surface depth. That equals about 11 cubic yards or roughly 15 to 17 tons of gravel. Adjust up for thicker depths, wider drives, or to allow for compaction, and get a custom calculation via Hello Gravel for your exact dimensions.
One cubic yard is 27 cubic feet. At 3 inches depth (0.25 ft) it will cover about 108 square feet, at 2 inches about 162 square feet, and at 4 inches about 81 square feet. Use the depth you plan to lay to convert cubic yards to square feet when ordering.
Usually no. Two inches is thin and best suited for footpaths or temporary surfaces; for driveways we recommend a compacted base of crushed rock 4 to 6 inches with a 2 to 4 inch gravel surface on top depending on vehicle weight and traffic. Local soils and rainfall in the Flatonia area can affect performance, so consider a thicker base for long-term durability.
Material cost depends on gravel type, depth, and delivery fees. A 20 ft by 10 ft driveway at 3 inches needs about 1.8 cubic yards or roughly 2.5 to 3 tons, which may hit Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum for delivery. Multiply the tons by your local per-ton price (get live pricing in our checkout) and add any spreading fees or hauling surcharges to estimate total cost.
River gravel is rounded and smooth because it was shaped by water, making it decorative and good for drainage beds and landscaping. Pea gravel is small, rounded stones (about 1/8" to 3/8") that pack lightly and are good for patios, play areas, and walkways but can shift under vehicle traffic. Because Hello Gravel sources locally, availability and exact appearance may vary in the Flatonia area.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, driveways with regular vehicle traffic, or anywhere you need a compacted, stable surface. It can shift under wheels and is noisy underfoot. For driveways or high-traffic areas around Flatonia, choose crushed stone or a compactable base with a gravel surface instead.
Buying in bulk from a local supplier and scheduling delivery to avoid extra truck trips lowers cost per ton. Picking common materials (crushed limestone or recycled aggregates) is usually cheaper than specialty decorative rock, and removing spreading labor reduces price. Use Hello Gravel to compare nearby suppliers, see delivered pricing, and choose the most cost-effective option for your zip code.
Most tri-axle dump trucks used by our suppliers carry about 10 to 12 cubic yards, which converts to roughly 14 to 18 tons of common gravel depending on material density. Smaller single-axle trucks carry less. Hello Gravel coordinates truck types with your order and will confirm vehicle size and expected delivered tons during checkout.
A 50 lb bag is roughly 0.5 cubic feet of gravel. At 2 inches depth (0.1667 ft) one bag covers about 3 square feet; at 3 inches it covers about 2 square feet; and at 1 inch it covers about 6 square feet. For larger jobs around Flatonia, ordering by the cubic yard or ton is more economical than many bags.
Measure the length, width, and desired depth in feet. Multiply length x width x depth (in feet) and divide by 27 to get cubic yards; multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to 1.5 to get tons (depending on the material). Use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team for a quick check and to factor in delivery minimums and local material options.
Yes, you can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading at their discretion based on safety and site access. Hello Gravel will pass your request to the hauling partner, but we do not guarantee spreading. If spreading is essential, discuss it with our team ahead of delivery so we can confirm the truck and crew suitability.
Not necessarily. Because Hello Gravel sources materials from local suppliers, texture, size, and color can vary based on regional geology around Flatonia. You can add color or texture preferences in Order Notes and request a closer match, and our team can advise on local materials that most closely match the look you want.
Common guidance: 2 inches for decorative pathways, 3 inches for patios and foot traffic, and 3 to 6 inches surface over a compacted base for driveways depending on vehicle use. Always include a compacted base of crushed rock under driveways for longevity, and adjust depth for drainage or slope challenges common in the local area.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
