Gravel: Drought-Ready Drainage For Hitchcock • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Options Available
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 Hitchcock Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a city population of 8,760, Hitchcock sits inside a fast-growing West Texas metro (metro area population: 2.5+ million) that is expanding at a 3.01% annually rate. That steady growth, combined with local climate—228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall of 34.32 inches in hardiness zone 8b—drives ongoing demand for residential and small commercial projects like driveways, drainage upgrades, xeriscaping, and foundation backfill. Homeowners here need consistent, correctly graded aggregates because local soils vary and projects require proper compaction and drainage. Choosing the right gravel up front reduces return trips, limits erosion, and keeps pathways, patios, and parking areas stable over time. Clear quantity estimates and timely delivery matter in a market where construction activity is growing. Gravel performs well in Hitchcock's mix of sun and seasonal rain: well-graded, angular gravel sheds water, compacts reliably, and reduces dust during long sunny stretches. For drainage trenches and driveways, compactible crushed gravel provides longevity; for decorative paths, rounded pea gravel offers comfort and appearance. Hello Gravel connects homeowners to local suppliers and professional haulers, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery windows, and material calculators so you get the right gravel, matched to regional color and texture, when your project is ready.Popular Projects in Hitchcock This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Hitchcock gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Hitchcock.
Local prices vary with type and supplier, but typical ranges in the West Texas/Hitchcock area are: crushed limestone $20-45 per ton (about $30-60 per cubic yard), pea gravel $30-70 per ton, river rock $60-120 per ton, and recycled/crushed concrete $15-40 per ton. Exact pricing depends on material size, color, and delivery distance; Hello Gravel shows final price at checkout and requires a 3-ton minimum.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers who deliver to Hitchcock; we do not operate our own trucks. Many customers in the area get free or flat-rate delivery within a typical local radius, but there can be distance surcharges or fees for next-day service and difficult drop locations—final delivery fees appear at checkout or on your quote.
For West Texas heat and clay subgrades, crushed limestone and caliche are common choices because they compact well and interlock to resist rutting. Use a compactable base (3/4" minus or road base) for strength and a 1/2" to 1" topstone for a smooth surface; consider geotextile fabric and proper drainage when building on clay to reduce washouts and pumping.
For a durable driveway in Hitchcock, aim for 6" total compacted depth (about 4" base + 2" surface). Example math using 1 cubic yard ≈ 1.3 tons: a typical 1-car driveway (10' x 20' = 200 sq ft) at 6" needs about 3.7 cubic yards ≈ 4.8 tons; a 2-car driveway (20' x 20' = 400 sq ft) needs about 7.4 cubic yards ≈ 9.6 tons. For patios and walkways, 2" to 3" of compacted gravel is common—adjust quantities with the Hello Gravel calculator for your exact dimensions.
In Hitchcock's climate a well-built gravel driveway typically lasts 10-20 years with periodic upkeep. Expect to regrade and add a fresh topcoat every 2-5 years depending on traffic, and repair washouts after heavy rains; regular compaction, edge restraints, and clearing vegetation will prolong life.
Gravel is usually the lowest upfront cost and provides superior drainage compared with concrete or asphalt, which is helpful on clay soils. Asphalt and concrete offer longer-term durability and lower maintenance but cost more up front and may require permits or HOA approval; choose based on budget, desired permanence, and drainage needs.
Rules vary by property and neighborhood; Hitchcock city permit requirements and HOA covenants can affect driveway width, curb cuts, and visible front-yard landscaping. Before you order, check with the City of Hitchcock public works or your HOA, and include permit notes in your project plan—Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics but does not handle permitting.
Yes—crushed limestone and caliche are commonly available in the West Texas market and often sourced locally. Caliche compacts well and can be cost-effective for base layers, while crushed limestone typically offers better long-term interlock and cleaner surface appearance; choose based on load, drainage, and personal preference.
Recycled crushed concrete is often available and can be 10-40% cheaper than virgin stone, making it a good budget-friendly option for base layers and driveways. It compacts well but can be more variable in size and appearance and may include old mortar, so use it where aesthetics are less important and confirm quality with your supplier.
Expect tri-axle dump trucks and a 3-ton minimum order from Hello Gravel, with delivery placement subject to truck access, overhead wires, and ground conditions. Remote rural deliveries may incur distance surcharges; request tailgate spreading at checkout but note it is performed at the driver's discretion for safety reasons.
Use the Hello Gravel material calculator or measure the length, width, and desired depth of the area (depth in feet), multiply to get cubic feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.3 to convert to tons. If you prefer, send your dimensions or use our 'Calculate Your Needs' tool at checkout and our team can review the estimate for Hitchcock-specific conditions.
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.
