Frequently Asked Questions - Glen Rose gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Glen Rose.
Delivered gravel prices in Glen Rose vary by material type, depth, and supplier, but you can expect a typical residential range of about $25 to $70 per ton delivered. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and often shows clear, itemized pricing at checkout; request a zip-code specific quote for exact rates and any delivery fees or next-day charges.
For Glen Rose’s hot summers and occasional heavy rains, a compactible, angular material like 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed stone is usually best because it locks together and drains well. Avoid smooth river rock as a driveway surface since it shifts under tires and does not compact reliably.
A common 2-car driveway (about 20x20 ft) at a 3" surface depth requires roughly 5 to 6 tons of gravel; at a 4" depth you should plan on 7 to 8 tons. If you want a base layer plus a topcoat, or to allow for settling and spreading, order 10% to 25% extra and round up to the nearest tri-axle load.
Crushed limestone (angular stone) is generally better for erosion control because it interlocks and resists movement during runoff, making it a good choice for slopes and driveways. River rock is attractive and works for decorative borders or low-energy flow areas, but it will move more easily in heavy rains and is less effective where stabilization is the goal.
You can buy bulk gravel in Glen Rose through Hello Gravel, which connects you to local suppliers and haulers in the area. Typical tri-axle truckloads carry roughly 7 to 12 tons and delivered truckload prices vary widely by material and distance; expect to get firm pricing by entering your zip code and requesting a quote through our site.
A well-built gravel driveway in West Texas can perform well for many years, but top surface replenishment is commonly needed every 3 to 7 years depending on traffic, drainage, and maintenance. Regular grading after storms and adding small amounts of material now and then will keep it stable and extend the interval between full refreshes.
Yes, properly specified gravel improves drainage on slopes by letting water pass through instead of pooling; use coarse, angular stone for sub-base and 3/4" crushed stone for the surface, and consider geotextile fabric where washout is a risk. For concentrated flows or channels, use larger riprap-size rock and pair it with proper grading and drainage structures.
DIY can be cost-effective for small, accessible driveways if you have the tools and time, but hiring a local contractor is often worth it for grading, compaction, and proper drainage—especially on slopes or tricky sites. Get quotes from local pros and compare them to material-plus-equipment rental costs before deciding.
Glen Rose or Somervell County may have rules about driveway permits, curb cuts, or drainage that apply to new installations or major changes; large deliveries that block the road or require special access might also need coordination. Check with the City of Glen Rose public works or planning department and inform your supplier or driver ahead of delivery to avoid surprises.
Prices vary, but pea gravel is usually the most expensive per ton because of screening and appearance, crushed stone is mid-range, and basic base gravel is typically the least expensive. Expect a rough delivered ordering range where base gravel is on the lower end, crushed stone in the middle, and pea gravel on the higher end—get a precise quote for each material through Hello Gravel for your address.

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.
