Gravel: Durable For Sunbaked Texas Yards • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Killeen
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 Killeen Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Killeen is a growing city of 141,451 residents within the Waco metro region, expanding at about 1.23% annually. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b, homeowners here face long stretches of sun punctuated by periodic heavy rain—conditions that drive steady demand for outdoor improvements. Gravel is a common choice because it provides durable, low‑maintenance surfaces for driveways, walkways, and patios, and it helps control runoff and erosion after storms. Local construction and landscaping projects benefit from quality aggregates that balance appearance with performance, so homeowners often seek specific gravel sizes and textures to match both function and curb appeal.Popular Projects in Killeen This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Killeen gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Killeen.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10–12 cubic yards (roughly 12–16 tons) of gravel. Delivered prices in the Killeen area usually range from about $35 to $65 per ton depending on material type and distance, so a single truck load commonly runs in the $400–$1,000 range. Hello Gravel provides exact, upfront quotes for your zip code and material choice, so request a quote to see current local pricing.
Costs vary by width, depth, material, and whether you hire a contractor for grading and compaction. For a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway with a 4-inch compacted base, expect materials and delivery roughly $150–$600; adding professional grading, base work, and compaction typically brings total installed costs to about $600–$2,000 depending on local labor rates. Hello Gravel can quote material and delivery; contact local contractors for installation bids to get a bundled price.
For a 20 ft long driveway: - Single-car (10 ft wide) at 4 inches deep needs about 2.5 cubic yards (roughly 3.5–4.5 tons). - Double-car (20 ft wide) at 4 inches deep needs about 5 cubic yards (roughly 7–9 tons). Delivery cost depends on material and supplier; many Killeen deliveries meet Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum and often fall in the per-ton ranges listed earlier, so expect a modest delivery fee or free delivery in many local zip codes—get a custom quote for your address.
Two inches is not enough for a functional driveway in Killeen’s clayey soils and summer rains—thin layers will rut and migrate. For driveways, aim for a compacted base of 4–6 inches of crusher-run or similar compactable base, plus an optional 1–2 inch wearing layer of 3/4" stone for the finish. Proper compaction and edge restraint are also important to maintain performance in Central Texas conditions.
For driveways in Killeen, a compactable base like crusher run (similar to G1) topped with angular 3/4" crushed stone is a reliable combination: the fines in crusher run lock together and compact, while 3/4" stone provides a stable surface. Texas black is a decorative option for a top layer but is less good as a base because it can shift and may require edging. Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and often stocks common driveway materials—availability varies by zip code, so check product options at checkout or contact our team.
There are stabilized gravel systems (polymer-stabilized, resin-bound, or grid-stabilized) that create a firmer surface than loose gravel. Some local suppliers that Hello Gravel partners with can source stabilized mixes, but availability varies by area and generally costs 2x–4x more than standard loose gravel when you include materials and specialized installation. Ask for a quote if you want a hardened or stabilized surface; we can check local supplier options for Killeen.
Hello Gravel’s standard delivery window is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Minimum order size is 3 tons; most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks and fees depend on distance and material, with free delivery in many local areas. Tailgate spreading may be possible at the driver’s discretion—request it at checkout but note it is not guaranteed.
Hello Gravel primarily arranges material supply and professional dump-truck delivery rather than performing site prep. In many markets we can refer local contractors or suppliers who offer grading, removal, and compaction, but bundled pricing and availability vary widely by job size and contractor. For a reliable bundled price in Killeen, we recommend getting at least two local contractor estimates and we can help connect you to providers in your area.
Local rules, city codes, and HOAs can affect driveway materials, drainage, and setbacks in Killeen, so check with the City of Killeen Planning Department and your HOA before installing. Hello Gravel can advise on common permitting considerations and recommend you confirm permit requirements and any retention or drainage rules with local authorities. We do not obtain permits for customers, but we can help guide you through what to check.
Season and weather affect availability and pricing: heavy rains can delay deliveries, reduce stock at local quarries, and make compaction work harder, while peak construction months can raise demand and lead times. In Killeen’s hot, occasionally wet climate, scheduling delivery and compaction during a dry spell improves results and may lower risk of delays. For seasonal projects, book early and request a firm quote to lock in pricing and timing.
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.
