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 Milford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Milford, West Texas, has a population of 1,530 and sits within a larger metro area of 2.7+ million, growing at about 0.80% annually. The local climate — roughly 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b — means long sun exposure punctuated by moderate rains that shape soils, vegetation, and how water moves across yards. As residential and small-scale development continues, homeowners need reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage improvements, low-maintenance landscaping, and erosion control. Choosing the right gravel size and texture helps manage runoff, reduce washouts, and create durable surfaces that stand up to Milford’s sun and seasonal rains.Popular Projects in Milford This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Milford gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Milford.
Typical retail plus delivery near Milford, TX often falls in these ranges: crushed limestone $20-$40/ton, crushed granite $30-$60/ton, river rock $50-$100/ton, and recycled base $15-$35/ton. Prices vary by quarry distance, truck haul, and seasonal demand. Hello Gravel can provide an accurate, current quote for your zip code and delivery address.
Suppliers are regionally sourced quarries and aggregate yards in West Texas and nearby metro areas; Hello Gravel connects you to the local options that deliver to Milford. Most local suppliers work with a 3-ton minimum order (our platform minimum), and delivery is often free within a short haul but may include an extra mileage or remote-delivery fee for rural Milford addresses.
Milford's heat, occasional flash floods, and clay soils mean drainage and stability matter most. Use angular crushed stone (3/4" or crusher run) for base and a coarser top layer for runoff, and consider mixes with clean stone for better drainage. Adding geotextile fabric and proper slope grading reduces washouts and rutting in heavy rains.
A typical 2-car driveway around 20 ft x 40 ft (800 sq ft) requires about 10 cubic yards (for a 4" top layer) to 20 cubic yards (for a 6-8" base plus topcoat). That converts to roughly 14 tons at 4" depth and 28-30 tons at deeper base depths, depending on stone density. Always calculate for local compaction and order at least 10% extra for settling and spreading.
For a 1,000 sq ft patio a common depth is 2" of compacted base, which is about 6.2 cubic yards or roughly 9 tons of gravel. If you need a thicker base (3" or with sub-base), plan for 9.3 cubic yards or about 13 tons. Use finer screenings for a smooth patio surface and compact in layers.
For a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide rural drive surface (1.0 ft width) at a 6" compacted depth, you need about 22 cubic yards, which is roughly 30-35 tons. If you are building a thicker structural section (8" base), estimate about 30 cubic yards or 42-45 tons. Local grade, drainage, and traffic level will change these numbers, so verify with a site visit.
Regulations vary: small towns like Milford and Ellis County may allow gravel driveways, but setbacks, driveway entrances, and drainage rules can apply. If you are in an HOA or subdivision, covenants may restrict visible gravel in front yards or require a paved apron. Check Milford city or Ellis County permitting offices and your HOA covenants before ordering materials.
Installation costs depend on prep needs. Expect contractor pricing in the range of about $2-$6 per sq ft for grading, base prep, compaction, and gravel placement; for simpler jobs or DIY, material-only costs typically run $20-$60 per ton. Get local quotes through Hello Gravel for specifics based on site access and required prep.
For Milford's clay-prone soils, install a geotextile fabric, lay a 4-6" compacted crushed-stone base, and finish with a 1-2" layer of fines or screenings for a smooth surface. Compact in 2-3" lifts using a plate compactor or roller and ensure cross-slope for runoff. Proper compaction and a weed barrier reduce migration, rutting, and weed growth.
Light-use gravel driveways in Milford usually need minor regrading or topping every 1-3 years; higher-traffic rural drives may need attention every 6-12 months. Expect topping costs of $15-$40 per ton delivered and spread, plus occasional regrading labor ($50-$200 per hour depending on equipment). Dust control like calcium chloride can run approximately $0.10-$0.50 per sq ft per treatment depending on product and application rate.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is easy to repair, but it requires regular maintenance and can create dust. Asphalt offers a smoother, lower-maintenance surface at moderate cost, while concrete lasts longest but has the highest initial price. For low-traffic Milford properties, gravel is often the most cost-effective choice if you accept periodic upkeep; get estimates for all three before deciding.
Common options near Milford include 3/8" fines (screenings) for topcoat, 3/4" crushed stone for base and drive surfaces, 1"-2" washed rock for drainage, and crusher run or road base for structural layers. Availability can vary by quarry, and prices depend on size and haul distance. Use Hello Gravel to check immediate availability and exact pricing for the sizes you need.
