Why Henderson Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Henderson, West Texas, is a growing city of 23,220 residents inside a broader metro area of 2.5+ million people. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, local homeowners and contractors are steadily investing in property upgrades and outdoor projects. The climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b—means landscaping and hardscape projects need materials that stand up to strong sun, occasional heavy rains, and hot, dry spells. That has increased demand for reliable aggregates like gravel for driveways, parking pads, pathways, and drainage swales. Homeowners look for quality gravel that provides dependable load-bearing, effective surface drainage, and low maintenance so projects last under West Texas conditions. Gravel is a practical choice for Henderson yards because it sheds water, reduces erosion, and tolerates intense sun without breaking down or needing irrigation. Well-graded crushed gravel supports vehicle traffic, improves runoff control during 34.25-inch rainy seasons, and complements xeriscape plantings in hardiness zone 8b. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate gravel, offers clear pricing and scheduled delivery, and coordinates dump-truck delivery (minimum orders start at 3 tons). Choose your delivery date online, request tailgate spreading at checkout, and rely on our local network to bring the right gravel for your Henderson project.Popular Projects in Henderson This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Henderson gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Henderson.
In Henderson (West Texas), expect delivered gravel to commonly fall in a broad range depending on type and distance: roughly $20 to $45 per ton, or about $30 to $60 per cubic yard. Heavier or specialty stone and longer hauls push prices higher; taxes, delivery fees, and jobsite access can change the final number. For an exact price, use our checkout or request a quote for your zip code.
Same-day delivery is sometimes available in the Henderson area but depends on local supplier and truck availability; check availability at checkout or call our team. Tailgate spreading may be offered at the driver's discretion; request it when ordering but expect the driver to assess safety and site access on arrival. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers so we can confirm same-day or spreading options for your address.
For the West Texas conditions near Henderson, crushed limestone and compactable crushed rock are good choices because they lock together and shed water while resisting washout. River rock and pea gravel provide excellent drainage but can shift or wash in heavy storms and do not compact well for driveways. Decomposed granite can look attractive but may powder or rut under heavy rain unless stabilized, so consider stabilization if using it.
First calculate cubic yards: (square footage x depth in inches) / 324. Then convert cubic yards to tons using a regional conversion—about 1.3 tons per cubic yard for typical crushed limestone (use 1.2-1.6 for other materials). Example: a 12'x30' driveway (360 sq ft) at 4 inches deep is (360x4)/324 = 4.44 cubic yards, roughly 5.8 tons with a 1.3 conversion; always round up and add 5-10% for compaction and waste.
Installed costs in the Henderson area commonly range from about $3 to $8 per square foot depending on scope: simple topping up is on the low end, full-depth rebuild with compacted base and fabric is on the high end. Materials (base rock, geotextile, top gravel), grading, compaction, and labor are the main drivers; adding drainage or stabilization grids increases cost. Get contractor estimates for your site—local soil condition, driveway length, and access affect final pricing.
Permit and HOA rules vary by neighborhood; many residential driveway replacements do not require a city building permit, but some areas or HOAs have restrictions on surface material or appearance. Check with the City of Henderson building department or Rusk County and your HOA covenants before ordering to confirm local requirements. If in doubt, contact our sales team and we can help confirm local rules for your zip code.
Plan to regrade and recompact gravel driveways once a year or after major storms, and add fresh top dressing every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic. Keep gutters and drainage clear to prevent washouts, address weeds seasonally with preemergent or spot treatments, and repair ruts quickly to avoid larger repairs. Using edging or stabilization products can reduce migration and the frequency of topping up.
Gravel is the most affordable up front and provides excellent drainage for rural sites, but it requires regular maintenance and typically has a shorter lifespan than asphalt or concrete. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially, handle heavier traffic with less routine maintenance, and offer smoother surfaces, but they can cause drainage issues if not designed with proper grading. For low-traffic rural driveways in Henderson, gravel is often a practical choice when you factor in cost and drainage needs.
Yes—geotextile fabric under the base, edge restraints, and gravel stabilization grids or resin binders are commonly recommended to improve load-bearing, reduce rutting, and prevent washout in West Texas conditions. Stabilizers are especially useful on slopes or high-traffic areas and can reduce how often you need to add new gravel. Availability and cost vary, so ask for product options and pricing when ordering.
Hello Gravel sources material from regional quarries and local producers serving the Henderson area; our platform can get you quotes for contractor-sized orders. Our minimum online order is 3 tons, but suppliers may offer larger truckloads or contractor pricing for 10 to 20+ ton orders and full truckloads (tri-axle). Contact our commercial sales team for bulk pricing, delivery logistics, and documentation for large projects.
Deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump truck; drivers need clear access and room to dump, and tailgate spreading is available at the driver's discretion. Remove cars, low-hanging limbs, and obstacles from the drop zone and mark the desired pile location with stakes or flags; if access is tight, notify us when ordering so we can match an appropriate truck. We require a minimum order of 3 tons and will confirm delivery window and any special instructions before dispatch.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
