Gravel: Drought-Tolerant Groundcover For Fresno • Choose Your Gravel Delivery Date
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 Fresno Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fresno is a city of 25,670 located in West Texas that is seeing steady demand for housing and landscaping as the region expands. With a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a metro area of 2.5+ million people, local development projects—new driveways, yard renovations, and small-scale site work—create consistent need for reliable aggregates. Fresno’s climate, with 225 sunny days per year, 34.50 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, favors low-maintenance, well-draining materials. Homeowners often choose gravel to control erosion, improve drainage, create durable driveways, and reduce water use in landscaped areas. Quality aggregates matter here because local soils and seasonal rain events make material choice the difference between a stable surface and ongoing maintenance. Gravel performs well in Fresno’s mix of sun and seasonal rain: angular crushed stone locks together for compacted driveways, pea gravel provides a softer, decorative surface for patios, and open-graded mixes improve on-site drainage during heavier storms. Because regional sourcing influences color and texture, Hello Gravel connects Fresno homeowners with local suppliers who understand those local geology and climate needs. We handle ordering, scheduling, and delivery (minimum orders start at 3 tons; standard delivery is 2+ business days with a next-day option for qualifying orders) so you get the right gravel for your project, delivered by local haulers on a schedule that fits your timeline.Popular Projects in Fresno This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fresno gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fresno.
Typical material prices in West Texas vary by type: crushed limestone or #57 stone often runs about $20 to $40 per ton, pea gravel $25 to $50 per ton, and decomposed granite $30 to $60 per ton. Expect delivery and labor or placement to add costs — delivery with Hello Gravel is often free in many areas or a modest flat fee; next-day delivery has an extra charge. For a rough installed cost, homeowners often see $0.50 to $2.50 per sq ft for simple spread-and-level work and $2 to $8+ per sq ft for professional grading, compaction, or stabilized systems, depending on prep and material.
Commonly available options in West Texas include crushed limestone, #57 stone, crushed granite, pea gravel, and decomposed granite (DG). For driveways, crushed limestone, #57, or crushed granite are usually recommended for load-bearing and compaction; pea gravel is better for pathways or decorative beds but can shift under vehicles. DG and compactable mixes are good for low-maintenance paths and patios when properly compacted and edged.
Use these Fresno-specific estimates as a starting point: a 2-car driveway (about 400 sq ft) at 3 to 4 inches compaction typically needs 4 to 10 tons depending on depth and material; a 1,000 sq ft landscape bed at 2 inches needs roughly 8 to 12 tons; a 4x8 patio (32 sq ft) at 2 inches needs about 0.5 to 1 ton. These are estimates — 1 ton usually covers about 100 to 120 sq ft at 2 inches, and 1 cubic yard is roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons depending on the aggregate.
West Texas heat and drought mean materials that compact well (crushed limestone, crushed granite, or stabilized mixes) resist washout and dust better than loose pea gravel. Heavy, occasional rains and flash events make proper drainage and a compacted base important to prevent rutting and erosion. Expect more frequent dust control and occasional top-ups in dry months; choosing coarser, angular stone and using geotextile underlay or edge restraints reduces migration and maintenance.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers serving Fresno and West Texas; typical minimum orders are about 3 tons, which matches our platform minimum. Delivery fees vary by region, load size, and access — many areas qualify for free delivery through our network, while some remote or small orders may incur a delivery charge or truck minimum. Enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our sales team to see exact local suppliers, minimums, and delivery pricing for your address.
Common solutions in West Texas are geotextile fabric underlay, plastic/geogrid panels, and polymeric stabilizers or resin binders. Geotextile fabric is a low-cost preventive step (material often $0.20 to $0.75 per sq ft), grid systems typically add $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft installed, and polymeric stabilizers or binders can run $3 to $8+ per sq ft depending on system and contractor. These systems improve longevity and reduce dust and washout, but costs vary with site prep and local installer rates.
Rules vary by county and HOA. In rural West Texas areas near Fresno you may need a county driveway permit or approval if your access connects to a county road; many HOAs have rules on surface material and color. Before ordering, check with your county public works or roads office and review any HOA covenants; Hello Gravel can help with material choices once you confirm local requirements.
A properly built gravel driveway in West Texas typically lasts 5 to 15 years before major rework is needed, with routine maintenance ongoing. Plan to regrade and add fresh gravel as needed — minor regrading often happens annually or every 1 to 3 years, and adding 0.5 to 1 inch of top-up gravel every 2 to 4 years helps maintain surface. Expect periodic dust control treatments and attention after heavy rains or washouts.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess safety and access on arrival. Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services, so budget for a separate contractor or DIY spreading and compaction if you need a finished surface.
Start by using Hello Gravel's material calculator and aggregate quiz to estimate tons and pick the right product for your project and West Texas conditions. Enter your zip code to see local suppliers and delivery options, choose a delivery date (standard is 2+ business days; next-day available before noon CST for a fee), and add delivery notes about placement and spreading requests. If you need help, contact our sales team at 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734 for personalized guidance.

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.
