Gravel For La Joya's Sun-Baked Soil • Fast Gravel Delivery From Local Suppliers
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 La Joya Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
La Joya has a city population of 4,550 and is part of a West Texas metro area with a population of 2.5+ million. With a growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rain annually, homeowners here are managing steady development alongside a semi-arid landscape. That mix of sun, dry spells, and periodic heavy rain creates strong demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage swales, pathways, and foundation bases. Homeowners look for materials that control erosion, support vehicles, and reduce mud while fitting into xeriscape or low-water landscaping plans — practical reasons gravel is a common, cost-effective choice across local projects.Popular Projects in La Joya This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - La Joya gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in La Joya.
Expect to pay roughly $1.50 to $4.50 per square foot for a basic gravel driveway in La Joya, depending on material, depth, and site prep. Delivered gravel prices in West Texas commonly range from about $30 to $70 per ton, and heavier specs or decorative stone raise the price. For an accurate quote, use Hello Gravel's calculator or contact our team — local delivery and minimums apply.
River gravel is rounded, mixed-size rock with smooth edges that is often used decoratively or for natural-looking drainage beds. Pea gravel consists of small (about 1/4" to 3/8") rounded stones that are more uniform in size and are commonly used for patios, paths, and playgrounds. Local suppliers in La Joya may carry regional versions of both, so color and exact size can vary by source.
A tri-axle dump truck in West Texas typically carries about 10 to 14 cubic yards (roughly 12 to 20 tons for common gravel). Delivered cost for a full truckload in the La Joya area can range widely, commonly $400 to $1,200, depending on material type, hauling distance, and site access. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers for an exact delivered price and notes our minimum order is 3 tons.
For a 200 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at a 3" depth, you need about 18.5 cubic yards (roughly 26 tons) of gravel. Using a delivered price range of $30 to $70 per ton, material alone would be about $780 to $1,820; total installed cost will vary with grading, base, and compaction needs. Contact Hello Gravel for a tailored quote that accounts for your exact width, depth, and delivery options.
A 50 lb bag of pea gravel is about 0.5 cubic feet and will cover roughly 6 square feet at a 1" depth or about 3 square feet at a 2" depth. For anything larger than a small accent area, bulk delivery by the ton or cubic yard from a local supplier in La Joya is usually much cheaper than bagged material. Use bags only for tiny repairs or decorative accents.
Buying in bulk (cubic yards or tons) and having it delivered by dump truck is almost always cheaper per unit than buying bagged gravel at retail. Choose common, locally sourced materials and order at least the 3-ton minimum to reduce per-ton costs; Hello Gravel can show local price options and delivery windows. Also plan to spread and compact yourself or hire local labor if you want to save on installation costs.
Avoid pea gravel where a firm, stable surface is required — for example on steep slopes, for unconfined vehicle driveways, wheelchair or stroller paths, and areas that need ADA compliance. Because pea gravel shifts and can scatter, crushed stone or compactable base materials are better choices for driveways and heavily trafficked areas in La Joya. If you still want the look of pea gravel, consider edging or a stabilizing grid to keep it in place.
Measure the length and width in feet and decide on depth in inches, then use cubic yards = (length * width * depth_in_inches) / 324. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.3–1.6 to convert to tons (exact factor depends on material density). Hello Gravel's online calculator and our sales team can run the numbers for your La Joya address and recommend a quantity based on the local material you choose.
Drivers may be able to do tailgate spreading at their discretion, but it is not guaranteed and depends on site access, safety, and local supplier policies. You can request spreading in the Order Notes at checkout and the driver will assess it upon arrival, but plan on arranging separate spreading and compaction if you need a finished surface. Contact Hello Gravel ahead of delivery to discuss any special site access or spreading needs.
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
