Gravel: Sun-Ready Drainage For Ingleside • Fast Local Gravel Delivery And Support
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 Ingleside Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Ingleside is a small but active West Texas community of 9,680 residents sitting within a larger metro of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that includes 228 sunny days per year, milder winters in hardiness zone 8b, and about 34.25 inches of rain annually, homeowners here balance bright, dry conditions with occasional heavy downpours. Those local patterns drive steady demand for quality aggregates: stable driveways and low-maintenance yards, reliable drainage around foundations, and erosion control for sloped lots. Whether repairing a gravel driveway, building a garden path, or prepping a base for pavers, Ingleside homeowners need materials that perform in sun, heat, and intermittent rain—qualities that local gravel sources can deliver when chosen for size, angularity, and gradation.Popular Projects in Ingleside This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Ingleside gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Ingleside.
Buying in bulk is almost always cheapest for projects in Ingleside. Bagged gravel from retail stores is convenient for tiny jobs but costs more per ton; ordering by the ton or cubic yard through Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and often lowers the per-ton price. Also consider using local, regionally sourced materials to avoid long haul charges.
Texas black gravel (often sold as BlackStar or dark decorative crushed stone) is a dark-colored decorative aggregate used for beds, pathways, and modern landscaping. Local suppliers serving Ingleside may have regional color and texture variations, so expect slight differences from photos. It is mainly decorative and typically applied at 1" to 2" depths.
'Number 1' gravel generally refers to larger, mixed-size crushed stone used as a base material for driveways, roads, and drainage. In Ingleside it is commonly used under pavement or as a subbase because the larger pieces provide excellent load-bearing and drainage. It is not usually used as a finished surface because it is rough and angular.
River gravel is larger, rounded stones collected from streambeds and is used for decorative borders, drainage, and natural-looking landscaping. Pea gravel is much smaller, pea-sized, and also rounded; it is used for patios, pathways, and play areas where a smooth texture is desired. Both can be found in the Ingleside area, but river gravel tends to be larger and more varied in color.
A standard tri-axle dump truck that serves Ingleside typically carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards, which translates roughly to 12 to 18 tons depending on the material density. Exact capacity depends on truck type and the specific gravel you order, so Hello Gravel provides the expected volume and weight on your quote. Remember local road access and curb or driveway strength can affect where the driver can safely dump.
Coverage depends on depth and material density, but as a rule of thumb in Ingleside one ton of common crushed gravel will cover about 240 sq ft at 1" depth, 120 sq ft at 2" depth, or 80 sq ft at 3" depth. Natural variations in stone size and moisture can change these numbers, so use them as estimates and confirm with a materials calculator or your Hello Gravel quote. For decorative gravels you often use 1" to 2", while driveways need more depth.
Crusher run (also called road base or compactable base) contains a mix of stone sizes and fines that lock together and compact tightly, producing a hard, stable surface. In Ingleside this material is commonly used under driveways, parking pads, and pavers where a firm base is needed. It is not the same as decorative loose gravel and should be compacted with proper equipment for best results.
One cubic yard of decorative black gravel covers about 324 sq ft at 1" depth and about 162 sq ft at 2" depth, which is a common depth for decorative beds. For most landscaping projects in Ingleside you will use 1" to 2" depth; adjust the estimate for paths or deeper beds. Always round up to allow for settling and minor measurement errors.
G1 (sometimes called #1) is typically a larger, mixed-size crushed stone used for base and drainage, while 3/4" gravel refers to a more uniform stone size near three-quarters of an inch. G1 will generally be larger and contain a range of sizes including fines, so it compacts differently than a uniform 3/4" aggregate. Choose G1 for subbase work and 3/4" for more uniform structural or decorative layers.
No, 2 inches is usually too thin for a driveway; most residential driveways in the Ingleside area require 4 to 6 inches of compacted base material, and often a thicker surface layer for durability. Coastal soils and occasional heavy loads mean deeper compacted sections will perform better over time. If you are refreshing a top layer over a strong base, 2" may be acceptable for a decorative surface, but not for a newly built driveway.
Calculate area first: for example a 20 ft wide by 50 ft long driveway is 1,000 sq ft. Multiply by desired depth in feet (4" = 0.333 ft) to get cubic feet, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, and convert to tons using your material's density. For a 4" compacted gravel base that example needs about 12.3 cubic yards (roughly 16 to 21 tons depending on material), and you can get an exact quote and delivery options from Hello Gravel.
A 50 lb bag of gravel is roughly 0.5 cubic feet, which covers about 6 sq ft at 1" depth and about 3 sq ft at 2" depth. Bags are useful for small repairs or edging in Ingleside, but they become expensive for larger jobs. For anything larger than a few square feet, bulk delivery by the ton is more economical.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, in high-traffic vehicle areas, or where wheelchair/stroller access is needed because it shifts and compacts poorly. In Ingleside's breezy coastal setting pea gravel can migrate if not edged or contained, and it can wash out in heavy rain without proper drainage measures. Use it for patios, play areas, or decorative beds where containment and low slope make sense.
The 3-3-3 rule is a mulch guideline (3 inches of mulch, 3 inches away from tree trunks, and 3 feet radius) and it does not apply to gravel. For decorative gravel in Ingleside, typical depths are 1" to 2" for beds and 2" to 3" for pathways, while structural uses like driveways need 4" or more of compacted base. Always leave gravel away from direct trunk contact to avoid moisture issues with plants and trees.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
