Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
Road Base

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 Groves Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Groves has a population of 14,900 and is part of a fast-growing West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million and an annual growth rate of 2.50%. With 228 sunny days a year, a hardiness zone of 8b, and about 34.00 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners here see steady outdoor activity and year-round landscaping work. That growth and favorable climate are driving demand for durable, low-maintenance materials for driveways, patios, drainage swales, and xeriscape gardens. Homeowners choose quality gravel because it stabilizes surfaces, reduces erosion on heavy-rain days, and provides a clean, low-upkeep finish that stands up to Groves' sun and seasonal storms. Gravel works well in Groves' climate because it sheds water quickly during the region's rainy periods and limits soil compaction under intense sun. For pathways, driveways, and drainage projects, locally sourced gravel reflects regional geology and performs consistently across the city's soil types. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right material — from helping you pick the correct size and quantity to arranging dump-truck delivery on a date that fits your schedule — so you get reliable, regionally appropriate gravel without the usual hassle.Popular Projects in Groves This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Groves gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Groves.
Typical delivered gravel prices in Groves vary by material and supplier. Expect material costs around $30 to $75 per ton for common driveway gravels, with specialty decorative gravels at the higher end. Delivery fees depend on distance, truck type, and order size; some orders have no delivery fee while others range $50 to $150 for local delivery. Hello Gravel shows final pricing and any delivery charge at checkout and requires a 3-ton minimum.
For Groves driveways, angular crushed stone (3/4" or 3/8" minus) is usually best because it locks together and resists displacement in heavy rain. Pea gravel is attractive and comfortable underfoot but can shift under vehicle traffic, so it is better for patios and walkways. Decomposed granite works well for paths and low-traffic areas but needs stabilization in Groves' wet spells; choose material based on use and ask local suppliers about regionally sourced options.
Gravel itself tolerates heat and humidity well, but proper installation is key for heavy rains: a compacted base, crown for runoff, and good drainage prevent washouts. In areas prone to flooding, fines and lighter gravels can wash away, so use larger, angular stone and consider geotextile fabric and edging. Regular inspection after heavy storms and spot repairs will keep the surface stable.
A 20 x 40 ft driveway is 800 sq ft. At 3 inches (0.25 ft) you will need about 15 tons of gravel; at 4 inches (0.33 ft) about 20 tons. We recommend ordering about 10% extra to allow for compaction and grading, so plan roughly 17 tons for 3" and 22 tons for 4" depths.
Typical lead times for Groves are 2+ business days for standard delivery, with next-day delivery often available if you order before noon CST for an extra fee. Seasonal demand, local supplier inventory, and truck availability can extend lead times, so schedule deliveries early for large or time-sensitive projects. Hello Gravel confirms delivery windows and will alert you if supplier timing changes.
With basic maintenance (periodic regrading, adding 1-2 inches of fresh gravel every few years, and addressing drainage), a gravel driveway in Groves can function well for 10 to 20 years. Lifespan shortens with heavy truck traffic or poor drainage, which cause ruts and washouts. Proactive maintenance after storms and occasional replenishment extend service life.
Gravel is usually cheaper upfront and easier to repair, so many rural Groves properties prefer it for heavy truck use. However, heavy repeated truck traffic will require more frequent regrading and material replacement; asphalt or concrete provide a longer-lasting, smoother surface but come with much higher installation and drainage costs. Consider traffic levels and long-term maintenance budget when choosing; a thicker compacted gravel section or a paved apron at the gate are common compromises.
Common add-ons include geotextile (weed) fabric to separate soil from stone, edging to contain the gravel, compaction/roller services, and regular regrading. Some suppliers offer polymer-stabilized mixes or tackifiers for high-traffic areas, and tailgate spreading may be available at checkout but is done at the driver’s discretion. Ask your Hello Gravel order rep which options local suppliers offer for Groves projects.
Some Groves neighborhoods and HOAs may have rules about driveway materials, rock size, or color, so check your HOA covenants or municipal regulations before ordering. The City of Groves may have permitting or drainage requirements for certain driveway changes, especially where curb cuts or right-of-way access are involved. If you are unsure, contact your local planning department or HOA and use Hello Gravel’s team for guidance on common local requirements.
Material-only costs commonly run $30 to $75 per ton in the Groves area, with delivery sometimes included depending on order size and supplier. Installed costs that include site prep, grading, compaction, and edging typically range from about $3 to $7 per sq ft depending on scope and traffic needs; heavy-prep jobs or contractor labor will push costs to the higher end. For an accurate price, get a local quote through Hello Gravel since final costs depend on material type, prep work, and any local hauling fees.
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.
