Gravel: Built For McGregor's Sunny Climate • Next-Day Gravel Delivery When Available
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 McGregor Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
McGregor is a West Texas community with a population of 6,348 and is part of a growing metro area of 288,771. With a steady growth rate of 3.04% annually, local housing and landscaping demand is rising — from new driveways and patios to drainage and erosion control projects. McGregor’s climate (229 sunny days per year and 35.90 inches of annual rainfall) and its hardiness zone 8a mean homeowners need materials that handle both sun exposure and periodic heavy rain. That combination drives demand for durable, well-draining aggregates that stabilize soil, reduce mud, and support long-lasting hardscapes. Homeowners choose quality gravel to protect investments, ease maintenance, and achieve consistent results with local geology in mind.Popular Projects in McGregor This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - McGregor gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in McGregor.
Expect to pay roughly $30 to $60 per ton delivered for common gravels in the McGregor area, with total project cost influenced by gravel type, delivery distance, and truck size. Tailgate spreading, if available, is often an extra $50 to $150 depending on the job; heavy hauling or tight access can add fees. For a precise price, use Hello Gravel to check your zip code and get local supplier quotes.
Hello Gravel partners with local quarries and aggregate suppliers that service the McGregor/Waco area, so you get multiple local options without searching on your own. Bulk pricing usually improves at higher volumes (larger tonnage) and for regular contractor accounts; ask suppliers about volume discounts when you request a quote. If you need help, our team can get competitive local quotes and explain line-item costs.
For driveways, crushed limestone and crushed granite are reliable in the McGregor area because they compact well and handle vehicle traffic. Decomposed granite (DG) is great for paths and patios where a natural look is desired, while river rock is best for decorative beds and drainage features rather than primary-driving surfaces. Consider local heat and occasional heavy rain when choosing material—crushed stone tends to lock in place better than round rock on slopes.
A common practice is 4 inches of compacted gravel for light residential use and 6 inches for heavier or sloped driveways. Using typical driveway widths (1-car = 9 ft, 2-car = 18 ft, 3-car = 24 ft) with a 20 ft length: at 4" depth expect about 3.2 tons for a 1-car, 6.2 tons for a 2-car, and 8.3 tons for a 3-car driveway. If your site has clay pockets, poor subgrade, or a slope, increase depth to 6" which raises tonnage (roughly 1.5 times) and improves longevity.
Hot summers in West Texas can dry out fines in some mixes and create dust, while occasional heavy rains and flash runoff can cause rutting and washouts if drainage isn’t managed. Clayey soils or poor subgrade in the McGregor area can hold water and reduce drainage, so proper base preparation and edge restraint are important. Choose angular crushed materials and add slope-appropriate drainage (swales, French drains) to reduce maintenance from storm events.
Routine maintenance includes periodic regrading to remove ruts, topping off with 1 to 3 inches of fresh gravel every 1 to 3 years for light traffic, and more extensive replenishment every 5 to 10 years depending on use. Expect heavier-traffic driveways to need regrading and added material more frequently, particularly after heavy rains. Good base preparation and drainage will extend service life and reduce how often you need to add material.
Gravel is typically the most cost-effective up-front option and offers the best natural drainage, but it requires ongoing maintenance and occasional replenishment. Asphalt provides a smoother, lower-maintenance surface at a higher initial cost and less permeability; concrete is longer lasting but more expensive and less forgiving to settlement. Pavers give a premium aesthetic and permeability options but have the highest material and installation costs; local climate and drainage goals in McGregor should guide the choice.
Permit and HOA rules vary: some McLennan County and McGregor city codes or neighborhood HOAs restrict driveway materials, setback, or front-yard landscaping. Before ordering material, check McGregor city code, McLennan County regulations, and any HOA guidelines for your property. Hello Gravel can deliver materials, but it is the customer's responsibility to confirm permits and HOA rules prior to installation.
Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons on our platform, which covers most small residential projects. Delivery radius depends on the local supplier and haul availability; many suppliers serving McGregor will deliver within 25 to 50 miles, but exact distance and fees vary. Enter your zip code on our site or contact our team for confirmed delivery availability and any distance-related charges.
Use a layered approach: prepare and compact a stable base, install geotextile fabric to separate gravel from soft soils, and add edging (timber, metal, or concrete) to hold material in place. For steep slopes, consider terraces, check dams, or retaining walls, and route runoff into swales or rock-lined channels to slow water. Angled slope breaks and vegetation in combination with properly-sized rock will reduce erosion during West Texas storms.
Yes, you can note color or texture preferences at checkout and our local suppliers will try to match your request, but natural variation is normal because materials are regionally sourced. Photos are representative; exact color, size, and texture can vary by quarry and batch, so inspect a sample if color match is critical. If you have concerns after delivery, contact our customer service and we will work with the supplier to resolve the issue.

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.
