Why Hickory Creek Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Hickory Creek, West Texas, has a city population of 993,588 and sits inside a larger metro area of 2.7+ million as the region grows at 0.70% annually. That steady growth plus a semi-arid climate — an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, 228 sunny days per year, and hardiness zone 8b — drives regular demand for outdoor projects like driveways, low-maintenance yards, and erosion control. Homeowners in Hickory Creek often choose quality aggregates to manage runoff, stabilize loose soils, and create long-lasting, low-upkeep surfaces. Local geology and the market’s steady construction activity mean materials vary by source, so selecting the right gravel mix and particle size matters for both performance and curb appeal.Popular Projects in Hickory Creek This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hickory Creek gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hickory Creek.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect roughly $25-$60 per ton in the Hickory Creek area: crushed limestone often runs $25-$40/ton while decorative pea gravel can be $35-$60/ton. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons; many orders include free delivery in our service area but fees can apply for long hauls, tight access, or next-day service. For an exact price and delivery fee, enter your zip code or request a quote so we can show supplier-specific rates.
For driveways, 3/4" to 1" crushed limestone or crushed stone is a top choice because it compacts well and resists rutting in hot, dry West Texas conditions. Pea gravel and river rock are popular for decorative beds and walkways but are less stable under vehicle traffic, while decomposed granite or screenings make good walking paths and can be stabilized for a firmer surface. Consider local appearance, maintenance, and whether you need a locking, compacted base when choosing a type.
Use this two-step rule: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to estimate tons (1.3 tons per cubic yard is a typical average for compacted gravel). For example, a 12' x 20' (240 sq ft) area at 3" depth is about 2.2 cubic yards or roughly 2.9 tons; the same area at 6" is about 5.9 cubic yards or roughly 7.7 tons. Always round up for compaction and waste, and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve the Hickory Creek area; supplier options vary by zip code and material. Typical lead times are 2+ business days for standard delivery, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. For exact supplier names, availability, and lead times for the material you want, enter your address or request a quote so we can show local options.
Hot, dry summers increase dust and can loosen fines, so denser, crushed materials that lock together (for example crushed limestone) generally perform better for driveways and high-traffic areas. Occasional heavy storms can wash or displace gravel; use proper grading, edging, and compaction to reduce washout and consider installing drainage swales where runoff concentrates. Expect regular light maintenance (raking, topping up) in this climate—more frequent after storm events.
Rules vary: many HOAs and some municipalities have restrictions on front-yard surfacing, drainage, and visible landscaping. Before ordering material, check your HOA covenants and contact the Hickory Creek municipal office or building department to confirm any permit or setback requirements. If you have questions, Hello Gravel can still deliver material, but permit compliance and HOA approval are your responsibility.
A properly installed gravel driveway can last 5-20+ years depending on traffic, base depth, and maintenance; expect more frequent upkeep than asphalt or concrete such as periodic grading, filling low spots, and adding new surface gravel. Gravel has lower upfront material costs but higher ongoing maintenance costs compared with asphalt or concrete, which cost more initially but typically need less frequent surface repairs. Factor labor (DIY vs contractor), how often you top up material, and local weather when comparing long-term costs.
Prepare a well-graded subbase, install 4-8" of compacted road base (more for heavy vehicles), then finish with 2-3" of surface gravel; compact in layers with a plate compactor or roller for best stability. Use geotextile fabric on soft soils to reduce mixing with subgrade, install sturdy edging to keep material contained, and slope the driveway slightly for drainage. Request these site details at checkout so haulers know where to dump and whether additional services like spreading may be possible at the driver's discretion.
Yes. Avoid scheduling deliveries during heavy rain because trucks can get stuck and loose soil makes compaction difficult—spring and late fall are often good windows. Summer heat in West Texas can make installation uncomfortable and increase dust, so consider early-morning work or watering for dust control during compaction. Book deliveries a few days in advance to allow for weather-related delays and to secure preferred dates.
DIY can save on labor costs if you have the tools, time, and experience, often cutting project cost significantly for small areas; you will need equipment rental for grading and compaction and help to handle truckloads safely. Hiring a contractor costs more up front but they bring grading expertise, compaction equipment, and can warranty their work, which often reduces long-term maintenance. For a reliable price comparison, get material quotes from Hello Gravel and contractor estimates for the full scope including base prep and compaction.
Clear the dump area of vehicles, low branches, and obstacles and mark the preferred drop location in the Order Notes so the driver can see where to place material. Confirm driveway width and overhead clearance for tri-axle dump trucks, and note any gated or restricted access; tailgate spreading is available but performed at the driver's discretion. If ground is soft or muddy, arrange a firmer staging area or delay delivery to avoid rutting and additional service 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.
