Why Little Elm Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Little Elm, population 68,730, sits in a fast-growing West Texas corridor adding residents and projects at a 2.80% annual pace. With a semi-arid climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.30 inches of annual rainfall (hardiness zone 8b), homeowners and builders face a mix of intense sun and occasional heavy rains. That combination creates steady demand for reliable aggregates: driveways and parking pads need materials that resist sun-driven breakdown, landscape beds benefit from rock for low-maintenance cover, and yards require improved drainage to handle sudden downpours. As neighborhoods expand and infrastructure projects increase, Little Elm homeowners choose quality gravel to control erosion, stabilize walking paths, and create durable, low-maintenance surfaces suited to local conditions. Gravel is well suited to Little Elm’s environment because it promotes infiltration, reduces surface runoff during heavy rain, and limits dust compared with bare soil. Local gravel blends often feature angular particles that compact well for driveways and drains and natural color variation that complements Texas landscapes. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and professional dump-truck delivery so you get the right grade for driveways, French drains, patios, or decorative borders. Order online, select a delivery date (standard delivery is 2+ business days; next-day available for orders placed before noon CST), and add placement notes—drivers may provide tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Little Elm This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Little Elm gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Little Elm.
Pricing in Little Elm varies by type and local supply, but expect roughly $20 to $45 per ton for common gravels (pea gravel and crushed limestone) and $25 to $60 per ton for specialty rock (crushed granite, decorative river rock). One cubic yard is roughly 1.3 tons, so prices translate to about $26 to $78 per cubic yard. Delivery and installation fees are extra; Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days.
For driveways, crushed limestone or crushed granite are common because they compact well and shed water; pea gravel is popular for patios but can shift under vehicle traffic. River rock is good for ornamental beds and drainage swales but is not ideal for driveways due to movement. In Little Elm’s regional mix, choose compactable crushed stone for vehicular areas and pea/river rock for decorative or drainage applications.
Hot, humid summers can cause fine dust and binder materials to dry and break down, while heavy rains can wash ruts and move loose material. Expect to regrade or add material after major storms and consider a well-compacted base plus edge restraints to reduce washout. Installing proper drainage (swales, French drains) and periodic top-up (every few years) will keep gravel surfaces stable in Little Elm’s climate.
Use 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet and about 1.3 tons per cubic yard as a local rule of thumb. For a single 10' x 50' driveway: 3" = ~4.6 cu yd (~6.0 tons), 4" = ~6.2 cu yd (~8.0 tons), 6" = ~9.3 cu yd (~12.0 tons). For a double 20' x 50' driveway: 3" = ~9.3 cu yd (~12.0 tons), 4" = ~12.4 cu yd (~16.0 tons), 6" = ~18.5 cu yd (~24.0 tons).
Little Elm may have zoning rules, curb/driveway standards, and some neighborhoods have HOA covenants that restrict surface materials or color, so always check town permitting and your HOA guidelines before starting. If your driveway connects to a state road or major county road, you may need a driveway permit or county approval. When in doubt, contact Little Elm town offices and review HOA documents before ordering gravel.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers that service Little Elm; our platform shows available suppliers in your zip code. Typical minimums are Hello Gravel’s 3-ton order minimum, and common dump truck limits range from single-truck deliveries of about 10 to 14 tons (tri-axle) depending on local hauler rules. For exact supplier names, availability, and trucking limits, check the Hello Gravel checkout for your address or contact our team for a custom quote.
Plan for geotextile fabric (helps reduce washout and weed growth), a compacted road base or subbase for vehicle use, and edging to keep material contained; these can add material costs and labor. Material costs vary, but budget an extra 10% to 40% above gravel costs for base, fabric, and edging depending on scope, and factor installation labor of several hundred to a few thousand dollars for contractor work. Ask Hello Gravel for supplier pricing and get local contractor estimates to include in your project budget.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost—roughly $1 to $3 per sq ft installed—while asphalt is midrange ($3 to $7 per sq ft) and concrete is highest ($6 to $12 per sq ft). Gravel requires more frequent maintenance (periodic regrading and topping) and typically lasts 5 to 15 years, while asphalt lasts 15 to 25 years with sealcoating and concrete can last 25+ years with less routine care. For Little Elm properties, gravel is cost-effective and permeable for rural driveways, but for heavy traffic or low-maintenance needs, asphalt or concrete may be a better long-term choice.
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.
