Gravel: Dry-Climate Drainage And Erosion Control • Scheduled Gravel Delivery In Italy, Texas
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 Italy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Italy is a small but growing Texas town: the city population is 3,230 and the metro area population is 2.3+ million. With a growth rate of 2.50% annually, local demand for housing, driveways, and yard upgrades is rising. The climate—about 230/year sunny days, a moderate annual rainfall of 35.00 inches, and USDA Hardiness Zone 8b—creates conditions where low-maintenance, well-draining landscaping materials are especially valuable. Homeowners in Italy seek reliable aggregates that stand up to long sun exposure, occasional heavy rain events, and the region’s variable soils. For many residential projects, gravel provides an affordable, durable solution for stabilizing driveways, improving yard drainage, and creating clean, low-care walking areas.Popular Projects in Italy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Italy gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Italy.
Typical delivered gravel prices in the Italy, TX area generally fall in the range of about $20 to $50 per ton, depending on the material (pea gravel, crushed limestone, or decorative rock), distance, and any delivery fees. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and may offer free delivery in many areas; specialty colors or next-day delivery can increase the price. Check your zip code in checkout for exact local pricing and available delivery windows.
For driveways in West Texas, 3/4" crushed stone or crusher-run (a mix of fines and angular rock) is a good all-around choice because it compacts well and sheds water. For ranch roads and heavier traffic, larger angular rock such as 1" to 2" crushed stone or a #2 base mix provides better load-bearing and erosion resistance. Local limestone or caliche blends are common in this region, so expect regional color and texture variations.
For a 20 x 20 ft driveway (400 sq ft), expect about 3.7 cubic yards at 3" depth and 4.9 cubic yards at 4" depth. That converts to roughly 5.2 tons for a 3" depth and about 7.0 tons for a 4" depth using a typical density of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard. Round up and order at least 3 tons minimum from Hello Gravel, and consider buying 10% extra for compaction and grading.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and trucking partners that serve Italy and surrounding West Texas areas; availability varies by zip code. Our platform has a minimum order of 3 tons, and most deliveries arrive on tri-axle dump trucks; specialty or smaller palletized products may require different arrangements. Enter your address at checkout or contact our team to confirm local suppliers, material photos, and delivery details.
Gravel (crushed limestone) is usually less expensive up front, allows better drainage, and is easier to repair for rural Texas driveways, but it requires ongoing maintenance like grading and topping up. Asphalt gives a smoother, low-maintenance surface and lasts longer under car traffic, but it costs more initially and can soften in extreme heat without proper installation. Your choice depends on budget, desired look, expected traffic, and local drainage needs.
For heavy truck use, a robust base is important: install 8 to 12 inches of compacted base material (crushed stone or recycled base) with a fabric separator over soft soils, then a 3 to 4 inch wearing course of 3/4" to 1" crushed stone. Proper compaction and drainage features (geotextile, crown profile, and edge restraint) prevent rutting and washouts common in West Texas storms. Soil conditions vary locally, so consider a deeper base where clay or soft spots exist.
Lifespan depends on traffic and maintenance: crushed stone used as a well-prepared driveway surface can perform 10+ years between major rebuilds with periodic topping and grading. Decomposed granite and pea gravel often move and thin faster, typically needing more frequent replenishment every 2 to 5 years for driveways. High-traffic ranch roads or truck routes may require more frequent repairs or thicker base layers to stay serviceable.
Plan to grade and re-establish crown once a year or after heavy storms; high-traffic areas may need grading twice a year. Expect to add material periodically—often 0.5 to 1.0 inch every 2 to 4 years for a typical residential driveway, which translates to a few tons depending on area size. Simple repairs (filling potholes, re-grading) are common and generally less costly than paving, but costs vary by access and haul distance.
Permit and HOA rules vary: Italy is in Navarro County and some areas or subdivisions may have HOA covenants or city standards affecting driveway materials, setbacks, or curb cuts. Before installing, check with the Italy city office, Navarro County permitting, and any HOA or deed restrictions to confirm allowable materials and required inspections. A quick call to the local permitting office or your HOA board can save time and avoid rework.
Angular crushed stone with a well-graded mix (stone with some fines for interlock) provides the best combination of drainage and stability; larger sizes (1" to 2") are useful in erosion-prone channels and driveway bottoms. Use geotextile fabric, proper grading, swales, and culverts to manage concentrated runoff during West Texas summer storms. For channels and areas with severe washout risk, consider rock riprap or larger graded stone to reduce erosion.
Deliveries to Italy typically arrive on tri-axle dump trucks; Hello Gravel coordinates timing and places materials where the truck can safely offload. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading only at their discretion based on safety and site conditions, and this service is not guaranteed. Provide clear access, mark utility lines and avoid soft or obstructed offload zones to prevent delays or additional truck 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.
