Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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 - Lucas gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lucas.
Delivered prices vary by supplier, load size, and exact material, but typical ranges in the Lucas/Collin County area are: crushed limestone or crushed stone $30–$50 per ton ($22–$36 per cubic yard), pea gravel $35–$65 per ton ($25–$46 per cubic yard), and screenings or roadbase $25–$45 per ton ($18–$32 per cubic yard). These are estimates—final price depends on distance, minimums, and seasonal demand. Use Hello Gravel to get exact local quotes for your zip code.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons, and most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks. For tight driveways, narrow streets, low-hanging wires, or soft shoulders in rural parts of Lucas, the driver may need to dump at the curb or street; always note access constraints in your order notes. If access is a concern, contact our team before ordering so we can match a supplier with appropriate equipment.
Angular, larger crushed rock resists washout better than smooth pea gravel. Use 3/4" to 1 1/2" crushed limestone or crushed stone with good interlock for driveways and slopes, and consider geotextile fabric and edge restraints to keep material in place. Pea gravel and very fine materials can migrate or float during heavy rain on steep or clay soils, so they are less ideal for high-flow areas.
Standard delivery is typically available in 2+ business days through Hello Gravel; next-day delivery may be available if ordered before noon CST with an extra fee. For larger orders or installation work, lead times from suppliers and contractors in Collin County can be 1–2 weeks depending on seasonal demand. Use our checkout calendar to pick a delivery date and contact us if you need faster scheduling.
Requirements vary by neighborhood. Many HOAs in Lucas and Collin County have rules about driveway materials, edging, and curb appearance, so check your HOA covenants before installing gravel. Also contact the City of Lucas or Collin County permitting office if you plan to change driveway location or drainage patterns, since some alterations that affect public right-of-way or stormwater may require permits.
For a two-car driveway in North Texas clay soils, aim for a compacted base of 6–8 inches of crushed stone or roadbase, plus a 2–3 inch surface layer of 3/4" crushed gravel—total 8–11 inches before compaction. Install geotextile fabric if the underlying soil is soft or very clayey, and slope the driveway for positive drainage away from structures. Proper compaction and edge restraints will reduce rutting and washout during heavy rain.
Expect light maintenance like regrading and filling low spots every 1–3 years and replenishing the surface every 2–5 years depending on traffic, drainage, and storms. Annual costs for a typical two-car driveway in Lucas range from roughly $100 to $400 for small spot repairs and occasional materials; larger replenishments or professional regrading will cost more. Good initial base work and drainage management will lower long-term maintenance costs.
Up-front, gravel is the least expensive option, with typical installed costs for a two-car driveway roughly $1,500–$4,000 in the Lucas area depending on depth and material. Asphalt is midrange, often $6,000–$12,000, and concrete is usually highest, commonly $10,000–$25,000. Over 20 years, gravel remains cost-effective if you accept periodic maintenance; asphalt needs resurfacing and patching, while concrete has higher initial cost but lower routine replenishment needs—choose based on budget, desired appearance, and willingness to maintain.
Use washed, angular stone such as 3/4" crushed rock or clean 3/8"–1/2" stone for French drains and perimeter drainage; angular particles allow better flow and help resist compaction in wet clay. Combine stone with perforated pipe and geotextile fabric to keep fines out of the drain. Avoid fine sand or pea gravel next to foundations where clogging or settling could occur.
Use the formula: cubic yards = (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324. To convert to tons, multiply cubic yards by a density factor—typical crushed stone density is about 1.3 tons per cubic yard (this varies by material). Example: a 600 sq ft area at 3 inches deep needs 600 x 3 / 324 = 5.56 cubic yards, or roughly 7.2 tons (5.56 x 1.3). If unsure, use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team for a supplier-verified estimate.
Include the preferred drop location, gate codes, driveway width, any low-hanging wires or trees, and whether you need the material dumped at the curb because of truck access limits. Note if you want tailgate spreading requested (driver will assess feasibility on arrival) and add contact phone number for last-mile coordination. Clear notes reduce the chance of on-site delays and help the driver choose a safe dump location.
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.
