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.
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
(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 Howe Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Howe, West Texas, has a population of 5,110 and sits within a rapidly growing metro region of 2.5+ million. With a 2.33% annually growth rate, local housing and landscaping demands are rising—new builds, driveway repairs, and yard overhauls are common as more homeowners invest in durable, low-maintenance exteriors. Howe’s semi-arid geography, 228 sunny days per year, and 38.15 inches of annual rainfall create a climate that favors well-draining groundcovers and erosion-resistant surfaces. Homeowners here look for aggregates that stand up to sun exposure, shed water effectively during seasonal rains, and keep maintenance low—qualities that make quality gravel a go-to choice for many projects. Gravel works particularly well in Howe’s conditions because it improves drainage, stabilizes soil, and tolerates sun and temperature swings in hardiness zone 8a. For patios, driveways, French drains, and xeriscape beds, locally sourced gravel blends provide the right balance of texture and drainage while reflecting the regional geology. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and professional haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery, a 3-ton minimum, standard 2+ business day delivery, and a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST—making it easy to get the right gravel, when you need it.Popular Projects in Howe This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Howe gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Howe.
Delivered prices to Howe, TX vary by type and local supply, but a common range is: crushed limestone or #57 stone $25-$60 per ton (about $18-$43 per cubic yard), pea gravel and river rock $40-$90 per ton (about $29-$64 per cubic yard). Prices depend on local quarry distance, load size, and availability; Hello Gravel lists exact pricing at checkout and may offer free delivery in many areas. Contact our team or check your zip code to get a firm delivered price.
For Howe and West Texas, crushed limestone or #57 stone are the best all-around choices for driveways because they interlock and compact well, resisting rutting in heat and heavy rain. Crusher-run (a mixture with fines) is ideal for a compacted base layer, while pea gravel or river rock are better for decorative areas or low-traffic yards, not primary driveways unless stabilized. Regional availability may affect color and texture, so request local photos or samples when ordering.
For a 2-car driveway (20x24 = 480 sq ft): 3" depth = ~4.4 yd3 (~6.2 tons), 4" = ~5.9 yd3 (~8.3 tons), 6" = ~8.9 yd3 (~12.4 tons). For a 3-car driveway (30x24 = 720 sq ft): 3" = ~6.7 yd3 (~9.3 tons), 4" = ~8.9 yd3 (~12.4 tons), 6" = ~13.3 yd3 (~18.7 tons). These use a rule of thumb of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard; order 5-10% extra for compaction and grading.
Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries and haulers that serve Howe; exact suppliers vary by zip code and season. Typical minimum orders start around 3 tons, and many deliveries are made by tri-axle dump trucks with free delivery in some areas, though fees can apply for short loads or long hauls. Check availability and minimums at checkout or contact our sales team for a quote and delivery details.
Hot, dry periods in West Texas increase dust and can loosen fines, while heavy rain can cause washouts and rutting if drainage is poor; occasional freeze/thaw is less frequent but can destabilize poorly compacted sections. Proper compaction, drainage, and using the right gradation (crusher-run for base, #57 for surface) reduce dust and extend longevity. Expect more frequent maintenance after heavy storms or on steep grades.
Excavate to a uniform depth and install geotextile fabric on soft soils, then place and compact a 3-4" crushed stone base (crusher-run) in 2" lifts. Crown the driveway slightly toward the sides for runoff, install edge restraints to keep material contained, and finish with a 1-2" layer of #57 or similar surface stone. Compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller and avoid placing gravel on poorly drained subgrade without additional rock or drainage.
Most homeowners in West Texas regrade or add gravel every 1-5 years depending on traffic, rainfall, and grade; driveways with heavy truck traffic or poor drainage need attention sooner. Typical maintenance costs range widely: a small top-up delivery (3-5 tons) plus light grading might be $200-$600, while larger repairs or professional regrading/compaction can run $400-$1,200. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator to estimate quantities before ordering.
Gravel is the lowest upfront cost (roughly $1-$3 per sq ft installed for DIY material), easy to maintain, and good for sloped or rural lots; it needs periodic topping and grading. Asphalt and concrete have higher upfront costs (asphalt ~$3-$7 per sq ft, concrete ~$4-$10 per sq ft) but require less frequent topping; they offer smoother surfaces and are better for higher-traffic suburban driveways. In Howe, gravel is often the most practical for budget-conscious homeowners and rural properties, while asphalt or concrete suit higher-use, low-maintenance needs.
Rules vary: the Town of Howe may have land-use or drainage rules, and many HOAs have design standards that restrict gravel in front yards or driveways. Before ordering, check with Howe city permits or public works and review any HOA covenants for surface material restrictions, setbacks, or curb requirements. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel or your local planning office for guidance.
Contractor pricing varies by scope, but expect contractors to charge roughly $8-$25 per ton for delivered and installed gravel on typical residential drives, or $0.50-$2.50 per sq ft for spread and compact services depending on site prep needs. Small jobs may have a minimum service charge ($200-$600) and larger installs with equipment rental can reach $1,000+. Ask for itemized quotes showing material, delivery, spreading, and compaction so you can compare with Hello Gravel delivery-only pricing.
