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.

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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Manchaca Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Manchaca, with a population of 5,700, is part of a rapidly expanding West Texas region that supports 2.5+ million people and is growing at 18.80% annually. The local climate—228 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b—creates projects that need materials able to stand up to strong sun and occasional heavy rains. That combination of growth and climate drives steady demand for durable aggregates for driveways, patios, drainage swales, and landscape beds. Homeowners look for consistent, locally sourced materials that resist washout, improve footing, and match the look of the neighborhood, and gravel is often the most practical, cost-effective choice for many common jobs around the house. Gravel performs well in Manchaca’s environment because its open, permeable structure helps shed water during rain events and reduces standing water on paths and driveways. Regional sourcing means the stone you get will reflect local geology, which affects color, texture, and compaction characteristics — useful to know when planning a visible surface. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right gravel by connecting you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery (standard 2+ business days; next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST with an additional fee), and tools to calculate quantities so you order what your project actually needs.Popular Projects in Manchaca This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Manchaca gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Manchaca.
Many Manchaca customers see delivery from free up to about $75, depending on supplier distance and driveway access; Hello Gravel provides transparent pricing at checkout. Some haulers may add a tipping or placement fee of roughly $25–$100 for difficult access or extra handling, so check the estimate and Order Notes before confirming.
For hot, clay-heavy Manchaca soils, crushed limestone or caliche are good choices because they compact well and shed water while still allowing drainage. Decomposed granite (DG) and stabilized mixes work well for pathways and patios, while pea gravel is best for decorative areas rather than primary drive surfaces.
Using common driveway footprints (1-car 200 sq ft, 2-car 400 sq ft, 3-car 600 sq ft) with a typical 3-inch compacted depth, expect roughly 4 tons for a 1-car, 8 tons for a 2-car, and 12 tons for a 3-car driveway. Always round up for compaction, slope, and driveway edges, and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order.
In Manchaca, a professionally installed gravel driveway including grading, edging, and compaction typically ranges from about $1,500 to $6,000 depending on site prep, drainage work, and driveway size. Material costs for common gravels in the region often run per ton, and final quotes depend on access, slope, and any required permit work.
Gravel drains better than solid pavements, but heavy summer storms and flash floods common in West Texas can cause washout, rutting, and displacement, especially on slopes or poor-grade areas. Proper grading, edge restraint, and upstream drainage features are important to reduce washout risk.
Geotextile fabric and mechanical stabilizers (grids) can greatly reduce rutting and migration of gravel on slopes by separating clay soils and giving the gravel a stable base. They are not foolproof for extreme flash flooding, so pair them with good drainage, proper slope angles, and adequate edge restraint for best results.
Hello Gravel partners supply locally, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; same-day delivery may be possible but depends on supplier availability and truck schedules. Standard delivery is 2+ business days, so check zip code availability and request expedited delivery at checkout.
Local rules vary in and around Manchaca—some unincorporated areas have few restrictions, while nearby municipalities or HOAs may limit driveway materials, colors, or front-yard gravel use. Before ordering, contact your county or town permitting office and your HOA to confirm any rules or required permits.
In Manchaca's climate expect light maintenance like raking and spot-filling once or twice per year, with a larger top-up every 2–4 years depending on traffic and storms. Annual costs for a homeowner-graded small driveway are commonly $50–$300; professional regrading or adding more material is more expensive and depends on driveway size and condition.
Yes—geotextile fabric and solid edging are recommended in Manchaca to keep gravel from mixing with clay soils and to maintain shape during heavy rains. On sloped or high-traffic driveways, adding a thicker compacted base layer improves stability and reduces long-term maintenance.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost but higher ongoing maintenance and periodic replenishment; asphalt is mid-range up front with occasional sealcoating and repairs, and concrete has the highest upfront cost with lower routine maintenance. Over 15–20 years, gravel can remain the most economical for low-traffic rural driveways, but for heavy use or low-maintenance preference, asphalt or concrete may be more cost-effective despite higher initial expense.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
