Gravel: West Texas Drainage And Durability • Fast Gravel Delivery To Your Property
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 Follett Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Follett, West Texas, is a small, tight-knit community with a city population of 530 located within a growing West Texas region of 2.5+ million residents. With a measured growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rainfall per year in Hardiness Zone 8b, local homeowners face a mix of intense sun and episodic rain events. Those conditions drive steady demand for durable, low-maintenance landscaping and infrastructure materials—driveways, ranch roads, French drains, and foundation backfill—that stand up to UV exposure, resist rutting during wet periods, and shed water efficiently. Homeowners in Follett look for quality aggregates that provide long-term stability, dependable drainage, and regional compatibility with native soils and grading practices.Popular Projects in Follett This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Follett gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Follett.
Delivery costs to Follett vary because suppliers and truck distances from nearby quarries change price. Many Hello Gravel customers see deliveries range from free (local suppliers) up to a few hundred dollars for long hauls; exact fees depend on supplier location, road access, and order size. We require a 3-ton minimum and can provide an instant quote for your zip code to show materials plus delivery.
For driveways and farm roads in Follett, use angular crushed stone or crusher-run (also called road base) sized about 3/4" to 1-1/2" for good compaction and traction. Pea gravel and rounded river rock are decorative but shift more under vehicle traffic and are less ideal for load-bearing surfaces. Local limestone-based crushed stone is commonly used in West Texas and performs well when properly graded and compacted.
A practical way to estimate is using cubic yards: 1 cubic yard of gravel covers about 81 sq ft at 4" depth. A cubic yard typically weighs about 1.3–1.5 tons, so 1 ton will cover roughly 50–60 sq ft at 4" depth, about 75–115 sq ft at 3" and 115–160 sq ft at 2", depending on the gravel type. Always round up to allow for compaction and local stone density differences.
Yes — Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers that serve Follett and the surrounding West Texas area, including regional quarries and gravel pits. Availability depends on your zip code; use our site or contact our team and we will show the suppliers that can deliver and their material photos and pricing. If you prefer, you can also check nearby farm supply stores and county pits, but we simplify that by getting quotes for you.
In semi-arid Follett, expect to regrade and top-dress high-traffic driveways yearly or every 1–3 years depending on use; lighter-use residential drives may only need topping every 3–5 years. Maintenance commonly involves filling ruts, regrading, and adding 1/2" to 2" of new material; material and haul costs vary, so request a local quote from Hello Gravel for current pricing. Regular grading after heavy rains and adding fresh gravel when low will keep cost and erosion down over time.
Gravel can work for farm roads that carry heavy equipment if you install a compacted road base of crusher-run or larger angular stone and keep a depth of several inches. For horse arenas, plain gravel or pea rock is usually not ideal because it can be hard on hooves and generate dust; specialized arena footing (sand mixes or engineered footing) is recommended. Adding a geotextile and well-draining subbase helps both applications in Follett’s dry climate.
Yes — for driveways, farm roads, or anywhere with heavy loads in Follett, a compacted base is recommended to reduce settling and washouts. Geotextile fabric can prevent mixing of native soils with gravel, improve drainage, and extend the life of the surface, especially over softer or clayey spots. Typical practice is geotextile plus several inches of compacted base stone, but the exact depth depends on expected loads and site conditions.
DIY can save labor costs if you have equipment and experience, but professional installation brings grading, compaction, and hauling expertise that significantly improves longevity. In rural areas near Follett, hauling costs and access to loaders/compactors influence whether DIY is practical; for small projects under a few tons DIY often makes sense, while full driveways or farm roads usually benefit from hiring pros. Ask Hello Gravel for both material-only pricing and delivered-with-spread estimates to compare costs.
Gravel has a much lower upfront cost and is easier to repair, making it a common choice for long driveways and farm roads around Follett, but it requires ongoing maintenance and can produce dust. Asphalt or concrete have higher initial costs and may be more durable with less frequent upkeep, but they are more expensive to install and repair and can be less practical for long rural drives. Choose gravel for lower cost, flexibility, and ease of repair; consider asphalt/concrete where a sealed, low-maintenance surface is critical.
Rules vary: Follett itself is a very small town and may have limited regulations, but county road approaches, driveways connecting to public roads, or properties in any local HOA may require permits or approvals. Before large installs, check with Follett city hall or Lipscomb County roads and planning offices and confirm any HOA rules; Hello Gravel can help by flagging common permit issues when you place an order.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
