Gravel: Drought-Ready Drainage And Durability • Next-Day Gravel Delivery For Joaquin Projects
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Joaquin Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Joaquin is a small but growing West Texas community with a city population of 2,900 and is part of a broader metro area of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 1.23% annually, development and home improvement projects are steadily increasing, driving demand for reliable aggregates. The local climate averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain per year, and Joaquin sits in hardiness zone 8b—conditions that favor materials which balance drainage, stability, and heat resistance. Homeowners here commonly use gravel for new driveways, erosion control, pathways, and drainage trenches because it reduces maintenance, handles seasonal runoff, and complements native soils and planting schemes.Popular Projects in Joaquin This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Joaquin gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Joaquin.
Delivered gravel prices near Joaquin usually vary by material and haul distance, but expect roughly $30 to $70 per ton delivered for common driveway gravels. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and works with local suppliers, so your final price will depend on material type, distance from the quarry, and truck access. Contact our team or check your zip code for an exact quote and available delivery windows.
For Joaquin's humid, clay-prone soils, angular crushed stone or crushed limestone performs well as a driveway base because it compacts and drains better than smooth river rock. Pea gravel is fine for decorative areas and patios but is not ideal under heavy truck traffic because it can migrate. Local caliche may be available in some East Texas locations, but availability varies by supplier.
A simple rule: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324, and most common driveway gravels weigh about 1.3 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. For example, a 1,000 sq ft area at 2" depth needs about 8.6 tons, at 3" about 13 tons, and at 4" about 17.3 tons. Use these estimates to get a quote, and ask Hello Gravel to verify quantities before you order.
In Joaquin's conditions, expect to regrade and add a light top layer every 1 to 3 years on driveways exposed to traffic and drainage flow. Severe storms or poor drainage can accelerate loss, requiring spot repairs after heavy rain events. Budget for periodic maintenance rather than a one-time fix—keeping a small reserve order (3–5 tons) on hand helps between full replenishments.
For heavy vehicle use, choose a well-graded, angular aggregate like 3/4" crushed stone or crusher-run; these lock together and resist rutting better than round river rock or pea gravel. A compacted base layer (4" or more) of crushed stone under a wearing course increases durability for farm equipment. Discuss your traffic types with Hello Gravel so we can recommend the right spec and depth.
Yes, Hello Gravel works with local suppliers that deliver to Joaquin and Shelby County; service availability depends on your zip code and local quarries. Our platform typically has a 3-ton minimum order, with deliveries made by contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle). Standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery may be available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Permit rules vary by location; Joaquin city limits and Shelby County may have different requirements for driveway connections, culverts, and curb cuts. Before work, contact the Joaquin city office or Shelby County public works to check for permits or right-of-way rules, and verify any HOA standards if you are in a subdivision. Hello Gravel can help with supplier timing, but local permitting is the customer's responsibility.
Common dust-control options for Joaquin include applying soil binders or polymer stabilizers, and in some cases magnesium chloride for unpaved drive lanes; polymer stabilizers provide longer-lasting surface integrity. Installing edge restraints and proper compaction also reduces migration and dust. Consult with local suppliers or contractors about products that have been used successfully in Shelby County.
Yes—gravel is often a good choice for improving drainage on sloped lots because it is permeable and helps slow runoff when properly installed. Use a geotextile fabric underlayment, create terraces or swales where needed, and install check dams or erosion-control mats in steeper sections to prevent washouts. Proper grading and a compacted base layer are key to lasting performance; consider professional installation for steep or high-flow areas.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost, commonly in the ~$1 to $3 per sq ft installed range depending on depth and material, while asphalt typically runs about $3 to $6 per sq ft and concrete $4 to $12 per sq ft. Over time gravel requires periodic replenishing and regrading, which increases lifecycle costs, but initial savings are significant for long rural driveways in Joaquin. Choose based on budget, expected maintenance, and how much vehicle traffic and drainage you have.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
