Gravel Built for Kaufman Drainage • Fast Gravel Delivery In Kaufman Area
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - Kaufman gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Kaufman.
Delivered gravel in Kaufman commonly runs about $30 to $70 per ton for material, depending on type and size, with local delivery often included or adding $0 to $50 depending on distance and truck access. If you need professional spreading/compacting, expect additional labor or equipment charges roughly $40 to $100 per hour or roughly $20 to $60 per ton for full installation; prices vary by supplier and site conditions.
For Kaufman’s east-Texas climate, crushed limestone and crushed granite or dense roadbase mixes perform well because they compact tightly and shed water. Use 3/4" crushed stone or #57 as a top layer for driveways, and larger 1"–2" base material or pit-run for heavier traffic or farm roads.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers that commonly serve Kaufman and the surrounding county; most suppliers deliver within about 20 to 50 miles, with delivery radius and fees varying by quarry and truck access. Enter your zip code on our site to see nearby vendors, exact delivery radius, and live pricing for your address.
Use this quick guide: at 2" compacted depth expect about 0.0086 tons per sq ft (1 ton covers ~116 sq ft); at 3" expect ~0.013 tons per sq ft (1 ton covers ~77 sq ft); at 4" expect ~0.0173 tons per sq ft (1 ton covers ~58 sq ft). For a typical residential driveway you’ll often need 3"–4" of surface stone over a compacted base; adjust quantities for compaction and slope.
Kaufman County soils often include clayey, slow-draining zones where geotextile fabric is recommended to separate subgrade from aggregate and limit migration of fines. If your site has soft spots, poor drainage, or you plan a thinner gravel section, add geotextile and a crushed-stone base to extend the life of the surface; well-draining, compacted sites may not require fabric.
Installed gravel driveways in Kaufman typically cost about $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft depending on depth and finish, making them the lowest initial-cost option. Asphalt usually runs $3.00 to $7.00 per sq ft installed and concrete $6.00 to $12.00 per sq ft; gravel requires more frequent maintenance but has a lower upfront price and easier spot repairs.
Expect light maintenance such as raking and filling potholes every year and more significant regrading or adding 1–2" of gravel every 2–5 years, depending on traffic and drainage. Typical homeowner maintenance costs are often $100 to $500 per year for a residential driveway, while larger repairs or re‑surfacing can cost several hundred to a few thousand dollars.
For farm roads near Kaufman, use a layered approach: a compacted 4"–8" base of 1"–2" crushed stone or recycled concrete, topped with 2"–3" of 3/4" crushed stone or road mix with some fines for binding. Include crowned grading and ditches for drainage; in low-traffic lanes a pit-run or road mix with fines will lock together and resist washouts better than clean pea gravel.
Permit and HOA rules vary by location; within Kaufman city limits you should check the city building and planning office for driveway permits or right-of-way requirements, and in unincorporated Kaufman County consult county regulations. If you have an HOA, review its covenants or contact the board—many HOAs have rules on surface materials, drainage, and curb appeal that can affect gravel use.
Specify the gravel type and size (for example '3/4" crushed limestone'), the delivery address and preferred drop location, and any access notes (gate width, drive surface, low-hanging wires) when ordering. Use our material calculator to estimate tons, choose a delivery date that allows for any site prep, and add Order Notes about spreading or special requests so suppliers and drivers can plan accordingly.
Some drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services; request it at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. For consistent professional spreading and compaction, consider hiring a local contractor or adding equipment rental to your order.
Small residential jobs with a skid steer or mini-excavator typically run about $75 to $125 per hour for equipment plus operator, while larger dozer or excavator work can be $100 to $175 per hour. Some contractors offer flat installation prices of roughly $20 to $60 per ton installed (including grading, compaction, and topping), but actual rates depend on access, site prep, and scope of work.
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.
