Gravel: Durable For Sunny West Texas • Local Gravel Delivery To Your Driveway
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 Jacksonville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Jacksonville's city population is 23,970, set inside a broader metro area population of 2.5+ million. With steady expansion at a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 34.70 inches of rainfall and 228 sunny days per year, Jacksonville homeowners are seeing continued demand for property upgrades, drainage fixes, and durable outdoor surfaces. Those local climate and growth patterns mean more driveways, patios, and erosion-control projects that need reliable aggregates. Gravel is often the first choice because it improves drainage, stabilizes soil, and reduces mud and washout after heavy rains. Local geology and the city's hardiness zone of 8b also affect color, texture, and performance, so homeowners benefit from materials sourced nearby that are adapted to Jacksonville’s conditions and long-term maintenance needs.Popular Projects in Jacksonville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Jacksonville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Jacksonville.
You can order decorative Texas black (often sold as Blackstar or similar regional names) through Hello Gravel, which connects you with local suppliers and haulers serving Jacksonville, TX. Our minimum order is 3 tons; standard delivery is 2+ business days and many areas have free delivery, though fees can apply for next-day service or long-distance hauls. Delivery is by tri-axle dump trucks, and final fees depend on your zip code, material type, and site access — get a quote at checkout or call our team.
Texas black gravel is a dark, crushed decorative stone made from local shale, basalt, or dark limestone blends; it usually has angular pieces that give good coverage and a modern look. 'Blackstar' is a common trade name for this style of decorative black gravel in Texas, though exact composition varies by supplier. It works well in West Texas landscaping for color contrast and low-maintenance beds, but expect heat absorption, some color variation, and regional differences in texture.
River gravel (rounded stones) and pea gravel (small rounded stones) drain well because of their shape, but both tend to shift under traffic since they do not lock together. Crushed stone or crushed limestone compacts and interlocks better, making those materials a more durable choice for driveways. River and pea gravel are attractive for patios and walkways and are often similar in price, but plan on edging and periodic raking to control movement.
Delivered gravel prices in Jacksonville typically vary by material and supplier; ballpark ranges are about $30 to $70 per cubic yard and about $35 to $80 per ton for common gravels. Decorative or specialty dark gravels can be toward the high end of those ranges. For an exact delivered price, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote because local availability and truck routing affect cost.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet and will cover approximately 324 square feet at 1 inch depth, 162 square feet at 2 inches, and 108 square feet at 3 inches. Use these figures to plan coverage for landscape beds, pathways, or accents. For practical projects, round up slightly to account for settling and waste.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel contains roughly 0.5 cubic feet, so it covers about 6 square feet at 1 inch depth and about 3 square feet at 2 inches. Bags are convenient for small touch-ups or accent areas, but they become expensive for large projects compared with bulk delivery. For larger jobs in Jacksonville, bulk ordering is usually more cost effective.
For driveways and high-traffic areas, crushed limestone or crushed stone is best because it compacts and resists movement. For pathways and play areas, decomposed granite or pea gravel are comfortable underfoot and provide good drainage, though pea gravel will migrate more. Decorative black gravel is great for low-maintenance accent beds but can get hot in West Texas sun and may require edging to control spread.
Bagged retail is easiest for tiny projects but is the most expensive per ton. Bulk pickup can save money if you have a truck and can load material yourself, while delivered truckloads usually offer the lowest per-ton cost once you need several tons. Order a full truckload when you need 3 tons or more (Hello Gravel minimum) or when your project calls for 4 to 6 cubic yards or more, as per-ton savings usually justify delivery.
Gravel in West Texas is less seasonally variable than in wetter regions, but prices and availability can still shift with local construction demand, storm impacts, and fuel costs. Late fall and winter sometimes offer slightly lower demand and better scheduling flexibility, but there is no guaranteed cheapest month. The best approach is to get a few quotes and schedule early if you have a specific timeline.
Expect standard delivery in 2+ business days with a next-day option if ordered before noon CST and an extra fee. Trucks are typically tri-axle dump units that need about 12 feet of clear width and roughly 15 feet of overhead clearance; firm, level ground for offloading is ideal and weight limits on driveways or neighborhood roads may apply. Request tailgate spreading at checkout but note drivers perform it at their discretion; add site photos or notes to your order to help drivers plan.
To estimate, decide the area and depth: multiply square feet by depth in feet to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards (1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet). Round up by 5-10% for compaction and waste, and remember Hello Gravel minimums (3 tons) and truck capacities when ordering. If unsure, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team with area dimensions for a quick recommendation.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
