Why Lone Star Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lone Star is a small but active community with a city population of 1,490 that sits within a larger regional economy serving a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a modest annual growth rate of 0.20% annually and a sunny climate in hardiness zone 8b with 204 sunny days per year, local homeowners and contractors frequently take on outdoor projects year-round. That steady, measured growth and favorable weather create steady demand for materials for driveways, low-maintenance landscapes, erosion control, and rural access roads. Homeowners seek quality aggregates because durable gravel improves drainage, reduces maintenance under heavy sun exposure, and provides a stable surface that stands up to seasonal wear and vehicle traffic.Popular Projects in Lone Star This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lone Star gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lone Star.
Delivered prices in rural West Texas like Lone Star vary by material, distance, and supplier. Expect a rough range of $30 to $65 per ton (about $42 to $91 per cubic yard) for common crushed gravels, with decorative or specialty gravels costing more. Exact pricing depends on your zip code, order size, and haul distance, so check rates at checkout or contact our team.
A standard tri-axle dump truck in this region usually carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards (roughly 14 to 17 tons) of loose gravel. The truckload cost equals the material price times the tonnage plus delivery/haul charges; typical total truckload deliveries in rural West Texas commonly run from about $400 to $1,200. Remote driveways, long-haul fees, or special placement requests can raise the total, so ask for a full quote when you order.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, so it covers about 324 sq ft at 1 inch depth, 162 sq ft at 2 inches, and 108 sq ft at 3 inches. Use these figures to estimate coverage for driveways and landscape beds and then add 5-10% for waste and settling. For weight, assume about 1.3 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard depending on the gravel type.
For West Texas driveways, crushed stone (3/4" to 1") or crusher run (a mix of fines and angular stone) performs best because it compacts and resists rutting. For drainage features, washed river rock or larger drain rock (1" to 3") works well, but note that rounded river rock can migrate if not contained. Pea gravel often performs poorly on driveways because it shifts and can wash away during heavy rain.
Common extra charges include long-haul or remote-delivery fees for distant rural drops, short-load or off-route fees for very small or awkward deliveries, and optional tailgate spreading or placement fees if requested. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; this is not guaranteed and may incur an extra fee. Always review your quote for any listed surcharges before confirming the order.
Local rules vary, but in small West Texas towns like Lone Star you often do not need a city permit for a private residential driveway if it does not alter public right-of-way. Check with your city, county planning office, and any homeowner association to confirm setback, drainage, or appearance rules before installing. If your driveway ties into a county road or State right-of-way, you may need county or TxDOT approval.
Buying in bulk and having a dump-truck delivery is usually the most cost-effective option per ton if you meet the minimum order (Hello Gravel minimum 3 tons). Buying bagged gravel or retail bags from big-box stores is more expensive per ton and less practical for larger areas. If you have a truck and trailer, a supplier pickup can save on delivery fees, but compare fuel and time costs before deciding.
Pea gravel is a poor choice on slopes, high-traffic driveways, or areas prone to flash runoff because it rolls, migrates, and can wash away. For stability use crushed stone, crusher run, or a compactable base topped with 3/4" stone; consider a stabilizing grid or polymer-stabilized gravel for high-use areas. These alternatives lock together better and stand up to West Texas rain events and vehicle traffic.
For a heavy-use driveway we recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crusher run or compactable subbase plus a 2 to 3 inch wearing layer of crushed stone, for a total of about 6 to 9 inches. To estimate material: 1,000 sq ft at 6 inches needs about 18.5 cubic yards (roughly 25 to 30 tons depending on material). Always compact layers, install proper grading/drainage, and add 5-10% extra for settlement and waste.
Decorative black or dyed gravels and slag are offered in some West Texas markets but availability varies by supplier and region. These materials are usually priced at a premium and may be sold in smaller quantities or have higher minimums; Hello Gravel's platform requires a 3-ton minimum for bulk delivery. Request a quote and a sample photo through our site so we can confirm availability and pricing for your zip code.
Use our online material calculator to convert your square footage and desired depth into cubic yards and then into tons, or contact our sales team for a quick estimate at 855-241-8884 or text 844-407-3734. Remember Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum and that local sourcing can affect color and texture, so request a sample or photo if appearance matters. We can also add delivery options and note any access or placement needs when you order.
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.
