Why Fort Stockton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fort Stockton, West Texas, Texas, is a compact regional center with a city population of 10,090 and sits within a broader metro area of 2.5+ million. Its steady growth, at 0.40% annually, and semi-arid climate—228 sunny days per year and an average annual rainfall of 34.25 inches in hardiness zone 8b—shape local construction and landscaping needs. Homeowners and contractors here favor low-maintenance, erosion-resistant materials that stand up to intense sun, periodic heavy rain, and alkaline soils. Gravel is a go-to aggregate for driveways, drainage trenches, foundation backfill, and xeriscaping because it reduces runoff, stabilizes surfaces, and requires less irrigation than turf. Because many properties in the region are large or rural, clear quantity guidance and reliable delivery are especially important when planning projects.Popular Projects in Fort Stockton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fort Stockton gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fort Stockton.
Locally sourced options in Fort Stockton commonly include caliche (a hard, calcium-rich local aggregate), crushed limestone, and crushed rock blends; decomposed granite and river rock are sometimes available from nearby suppliers. Product names and exact gradations vary by supplier because materials reflect West Texas geology, so color and texture can differ from photos. Hello Gravel can show regional options for your zip code and let you add color preferences in Order Notes at checkout.
Material prices in West Texas typically range widely depending on type and size, so expect roughly $20 to $60 per ton for common gravels, with bulk discounts for larger orders. Hello Gravel’s standard delivery is 2+ business days and may be free in many areas; next-day delivery is available before noon CST for an extra fee, and minimum orders start at 3 tons. Spreading and installation are usually charged separately—hiring a local contractor for grading, spreading, and compaction commonly runs around $1 to $3 per square foot or hourly rates; request a site quote for an accurate total.
Use this quick rule: tons = area (sq ft) × depth (inches) × 1.4 / 324, where 1.4 is a typical tons-per-cubic-yard estimate. That works out to about 0.0086 tons/sq ft at 2 inches, 0.0130 tons/sq ft at 3 inches, and 0.0173 tons/sq ft at 4 inches—so a 360 sq ft driveway (12' x 30') needs roughly 3.1 tons at 2", 4.7 tons at 3", and 6.2 tons at 4". These are estimates; order a little extra (5–10%) for grading, compaction, and settling, and use Hello Gravel’s calculator or contact our team for a site-specific estimate.
Hot, dry conditions and frequent winds in Fort Stockton tend to blow fines away and cause increased dust, which can make loose, rounded gravels thin out faster than angular crushed rock. Lighter-colored stones can get very hot in summer, and repeated sun and wind exposure can scatter smaller material, so expect to regrade and top up periodically. To reduce dust and movement, choose angular crushed stone, use edge restraints and proper compaction, or consider stabilizers for high-traffic areas.
Fort Stockton and West Texas commonly have caliche layers and clay pockets that create a hardpan, poor drainage, or uneven settlement if not addressed. Hard caliche may need mechanical removal or a deeper engineered base, and clay-rich pockets should be compacted or replaced with free-draining base material. Installing a geotextile fabric and a properly compacted crushed-stone subbase will improve stability and drainage on these soils.
For erosion control on slopes and channels, use larger rock like 2" to 6" riprap or 1"–2" angular crushed rock that resists being washed out by storm flows. For low-maintenance xeriscape and paths in Fort Stockton, 3/8" to 3/4" crushed limestone or stabilized decomposed granite (DG) are good choices because they lock together and reduce dust and weed growth. Local caliche rock is also popular for hardening drives and pads, but it can be dusty and may need occasional topping.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is often the easiest option for rural Fort Stockton driveways, but it requires regular maintenance like grading and topping; expect a functional life with periodic upkeep of 5 to 20 years depending on traffic and care. Asphalt and concrete cost more to install (often several times gravel) but generally last longer before major repairs—typical service life is about 15–30 years for asphalt and 25–40 years for concrete with proper installation. Choose gravel when budget and simplicity matter, and consider asphalt or concrete where lower long-term maintenance and smoother surface are priorities.
Hello Gravel works with a network of local West Texas suppliers so material names and mixes you see will reflect what’s available near Fort Stockton. Standard delivery through Hello Gravel is typically 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST; larger or custom orders can take 3–7 business days depending on supplier stock and trucking. For exact material names, pricing, and lead time for your zip code, use our site to check availability or contact our team.
Regulations vary by neighborhood—some Fort Stockton HOAs may have rules about surface type, color, or dust control, and city requirements can affect driveway width, curb cuts, and stormwater flow. Before ordering, check your HOA covenants and call Fort Stockton city planning or public works to confirm driveway and right-of-way rules. If you need help, contact Hello Gravel’s sales team for guidance on typical local requirements.
Contractors typically remove topsoil, install geotextile fabric, and place a 4"–8" compacted base of crushed stone or caliche, compacting in 2"–3" lifts with a plate compactor or roller for driveways and high-traffic areas. Use edge restraints to prevent lateral spreading and pitch the surface for drainage away from structures, especially important on caliche or clay subgrades common in the area. On poor subsoil, consider a deeper engineered base or excavation to frost- and settlement-prone layers for a longer-lasting surface.
Plan to regrade and top up gravel every 1–3 years depending on traffic and wind exposure, and add 1–2 inches of new material when low spots form or fines are lost to dust. Keep drainage clear, repair ruts after storms, and consider periodic compaction or a stabilizing treatment for high-traffic areas to reduce tracking and dust. If you need help estimating replacement amounts or scheduling repeat deliveries, Hello Gravel’s material calculator and team can assist.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
