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 Olney Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Olney, with a city population of 3,270 and positioned within a metro area of 2.5+ million, sits in a steadily growing West Texas region with a growth rate of 0.80% annually. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and roughly 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b—shapes how homeowners approach landscaping and site work. Durable, well-draining surfaces are in demand to manage occasional heavy showers, strong sun, and locally variable soils.

Frequently Asked Questions - Olney gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Olney.
One ton of typical crushed gravel is about 0.7 cubic yards and at a 2-inch depth it will cover roughly 115 to 120 square feet. Actual coverage varies by stone type and moisture (denser rock covers less area), so use this as an estimate when planning for Olney projects. If you need a precise amount, calculate using yardage and convert to tons or get a quick estimate from our team.
To estimate tons, first pick your driveway width and depth. For example, a 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at a 3-inch depth needs about 11.1 cubic yards, which is roughly 15 to 16 tons; order 10% extra for compaction and waste. Keep in mind Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and regional material differences can change the exact tonnage.
Common choices around Olney include crushed limestone or caliche-based crushed stone, pea gravel (small rounded stones), and decorative river rock. Crushed stone (3/4" or 1") is most used for driveways and bases because it compacts well, while pea gravel and river rock are popular for decoration and drainage. Regional suppliers in West Texas tend to offer limestone-derived products that reflect local geology.
Texas black gravel is a decorative dark-colored stone used for modern landscaping and pathways; it can be crushed basalt, dark limestone, or manufactured slag depending on the supplier. Availability in Olney may be limited because local quarries often supply lighter limestone tones, but Hello Gravel can check nearby suppliers and deliver if it's offered in your area. Add color preferences in Order Notes and our team will try to match them where possible.
Dump truck sizes vary; tri-axle dump trucks commonly used for Hello Gravel deliveries typically carry about 10 to 16 tons of gravel per load, depending on material and truck model. Delivery cost depends on material price, distance, and truck type, so final pricing is provided in your quote at checkout. We require a 3-ton minimum per order, offer standard delivery in 2+ business days, and next-day delivery if ordered before noon CST (additional fee may apply).
You can, but it is not recommended for driveways or high-traffic areas because gravel placed directly on soil is likely to shift, sink, and allow weeds to come through. For Olney's seasonal rains and temperature swings, we recommend grading and compacting the subgrade, installing a geotextile fabric if desired, and adding a compacted base layer of crushed stone before the top gravel. Proper preparation increases longevity and reduces maintenance.
Color choice is mostly aesthetic, but it also affects heat: lighter gravels reflect heat and stay cooler, while dark gravels absorb heat in the sun. Choose a color that complements your home and consider heat in summer—lighter tones are often more comfortable in West Texas. Keep in mind local supply may limit exact color matches, so add preferences in Order Notes when ordering.
The best approach is a combination of material and installation: use a compactable crushed stone base (3/4" minus or crusher run) that locks together, install a good-quality landscape fabric, and edge the area to prevent migration. No gravel alone completely prevents weeds, but a stable base and weed barrier greatly reduce growth. Regular maintenance like a pre-emergent herbicide and occasional raking also help.
Materials called 'crusher run,' '3/4" minus,' or local caliche can lock up and form a firm surface when compacted, giving a hard, stable finish similar to a very rough concrete. Decomposed granite with a stabilizer is another option for a hardened, pedestrian-friendly surface. These options do not turn into true concrete; they compact into a firm surface and availability in Olney depends on nearby suppliers—ask us for local options and recommendations.
Cost depends on driveway dimensions, gravel type, depth, and delivery. For example, a 20 ft by 40 ft driveway at 3 inches deep requires about 7.4 cubic yards, or roughly 10 to 11 tons of material; multiply the tons by the local per-ton price and add delivery and any spreading fees to estimate cost. Because regional pricing and truck fees vary, get a personalized quote through Hello Gravel for an accurate total.
Olney is in West Texas, where local quarries often produce limestone- or caliche-based gravels, so you'll commonly see tan and off-white stones that reflect the area's geology. The hot, dry summers and occasional heavy rains mean you should choose materials that compact well for stability and resist washout; crushed stone is usually a good all-around choice. We source regionally, so expect natural variation in color and texture and contact us if color or composition is critical for your project.
