Gravel: Built For West Texas Drainage • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Support
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 Fort Bliss Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fort Bliss is a compact West Texas community with a city population of 1,665 and it sits inside a metro area of 2.7+ million people. With a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually, local building and landscaping activity remains consistent, driving demand for dependable aggregates. The local climate—about 228/year sunny days, roughly 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates conditions where yards need materials that withstand strong sun, occasional heavy showers, and well‑draining soils. Homeowners use gravel for driveways, drainage swales, xeriscapes, and structural subbases because good aggregate reduces erosion, improves runoff management, and complements the regional look and soil conditions more reliably than imported materials.Popular Projects in Fort Bliss This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fort Bliss gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fort Bliss.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is about 0.5 cubic feet and will cover roughly 12 sq ft at 1/2" depth, 6 sq ft at 1" depth, and 3 sq ft at 2" depth. Bags are convenient for small touch-ups, planters, or sample testing; buy bags if you need under about 1 cubic yard (roughly 50 bags). For larger projects or whole-driveway work, bulk gravel is usually much cheaper per ton and Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum for delivery in the Fort Bliss area.
We deliver bulk gravel to most residential addresses in the Fort Bliss / West Texas area with standard delivery of 2+ business days and next-day options for orders placed before noon CST (fees may apply). Delivering onto Fort Bliss base often requires base access, permits, and a point of contact; we can try to coordinate but recommend you contact your base facility manager and Hello Gravel support before ordering. If base access cannot be arranged, consider delivering to an off-base address nearby.
For driveways and parking pads in West Texas, crushed rock (commonly 3/4" minus or 3/4" crushed stone) is usually best because it locks together, compacts well, and handles vehicle traffic and heat. Decomposed granite is a good decorative, compacting option for low-traffic areas but needs stabilizer for heavy use. Pea gravel and rounded river rock tend to move under tires and on slopes, so they are better for decorative areas or walkways rather than primary drive surfaces.
Prices vary by material, supplier, and distance from stockpile; expect typical delivered ranges of about $30 to $80 per ton for common gravels in the El Paso / West Texas region, with higher costs for specialty or colored gravels. Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, a small 3-ton order will usually have a higher per-ton delivered cost than a 10+ ton order, which often receives lower per-ton pricing. For exact pricing for your project in Fort Bliss, get a quote using your zip code so we can factor local supplier rates and delivery distance.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, high-traffic driveways, and areas where wheel traction is needed because the round stones shift and spread. For those situations choose crushed rock or crushed limestone (3/4" minus) which compacts and locks into a stable surface, or use decomposed granite with a stabilizer for a smoother, compacted finish. For decorative beds or walkways where movement is OK, pea gravel remains a good choice.
You should check with your HOA and the City or County planning department for any local rules or permit requirements before changing driveways or front-yard surfacing. If the property is on Fort Bliss, base rules and permitting may apply and must be arranged before delivery. On-site prep usually includes clearing vegetation, grading for drainage, edge restraints, and compacting a base; plan to discuss site prep with your contractor or Hello Gravel support before delivery.
Yes, many customers test materials first by buying 50 lb bags or asking local suppliers for a sample; Hello Gravel can often provide photos, spec sheets, and supplier sample guidance. Small trial deliveries may be possible depending on the supplier and haul distance, but keep in mind our standard minimum is 3 tons for bulk delivery, so ordering a few bags or picking up a sample locally is the most reliable option. Contact our team and we will help you arrange samples or point you to nearby retail outlets that carry the material.
Hello Gravel coordinates material delivery but does not guarantee full installation services; drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and only if it is safe and allowed. For full spreading and compaction you should hire a local landscape contractor; typical local rates vary widely but ballpark costs for labor and equipment are about $1.50 to $6.00 per sq ft for spreading and basic compaction, or roughly $35 to $75 per hour per worker depending on crew size and equipment. Ask us for recommendations for local installers and always get written quotes before hiring.
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.
