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 Orangefield Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Orangefield homeowners (city population of 716) contend with a subtropical, rain-heavy environment and modest steady growth (0.10% annually). With about 60.00 inches of rain each year, roughly 205 sunny days, and USDA hardiness zone 9b, projects here need materials that stand up to heavy showers, quick drying cycles, and the occasional intense storm. Those conditions increase demand for durable aggregates for driveways, erosion control, and drainage work. Nearby market support (metro area population of 389,000) means a reliable supply chain, but homeowners still benefit from clear product guidance and accurate quantity estimates when ordering multiple tons for landscaping or repair jobs. Gravel is a practical choice in Orangefield because its permeability and stability help manage stormwater, prevent mud, and reduce surface rutting under repeated use. Well-graded crushed gravel or 3/4" stone works well for driveways, French drains, and base layers for pavers in this climate, shedding water while resisting washout. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and professional haulers, offers transparent pricing and scheduled delivery (standard 2+ business days, next-day available before noon CST), and helps you choose the right material and amount for reliable local results.Popular Projects in Orangefield This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Orangefield gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Orangefield.
Material and delivery for common gravel in the Beaumont metro typically runs about $30 to $65 per ton delivered, depending on type (pea gravel and decorative river rock are at the high end). Installation (grading, spreading, compaction) is extra and often ranges from about $0.50 to $2.00 per square foot or $25 to $75 per hour for a local crew, depending on site prep needs. Final price depends on stone type, access, driveway slope, and whether additional base or drainage work is required.
For Orangefield's hot, humid, and heavy-rain climate, compactable crushed stone (crusher run, crushed limestone, or Class II road base) performs best because it locks together and resists rutting. Pea gravel or smooth river rock drains well and looks nice, but it shifts and can rut under vehicle traffic, so it is better for low-traffic or decorative driveways. Use a compactable base layer with a coarser surface stone for the most durable result.
A good rule: 2 inches of gravel requires about 1 ton per 120 square feet, and 4 inches requires about 1 ton per 60 square feet. In other words, 0.0083 tons per square foot at 2 inches and 0.0167 tons per square foot at 4 inches. Always order a little extra (5-10%) to account for compaction and spreading; minimum orders typically start at 3 tons.
Yes — many landscapers and local contractors around Orangefield offer grading, compaction, and professional spreading as part of a driveway installation. Hello Gravel handles delivery to the site; if you want full installation, ask for a quote from local contractors or request spreading during checkout, keeping in mind drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and it is not guaranteed. For best results in Southeast Texas, hire a contractor who will install a compacted base and proper drainage.
Replenishment depends on traffic and drainage: expect small top-ups (1 to 2 inches) every 1 to 3 years for driveways with regular vehicle use, and every 3 to 7 years for low-traffic residential drives. Heavy rains, poor drainage, and clay subsoil common in the Beaumont area accelerate loss and rutting, so addressing drainage and compaction up front will lengthen interval between fills. Regular minor maintenance is much cheaper than major regrading later.
Yes — the Beaumont/Orange area has multiple regional suppliers and quarries within trucking distance that sell bulk gravel and deliver to Orangefield. Hello Gravel sources materials from trusted local suppliers and coordinates delivery with contracted haulers so you get regional materials and scheduled delivery; check your zip code on our site to see available products and lead times. If you prefer a specific quarry, add it in Order Notes and we will try to accommodate regional preferences.
Yes — geotextile fabric (a nonwoven geomembrane) is commonly recommended under gravel in Southeast Texas to slow weed growth and prevent stone from sinking into soft clay subsoils. Fabric helps separate the subgrade from the gravel and reduces mixing, but it works best when combined with proper base material, compaction, and edge restraint. Make sure contractors use fabric rated for vehicular traffic; fabric alone is not a substitute for a well-prepared base.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost: installed gravel driveways in the Beaumont area generally run well below asphalt and concrete, often $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot installed for a basic driveway. Asphalt typically costs about $3.00 to $6.00 per square foot installed, and concrete commonly runs $6.00 to $12.00 per square foot installed. Remember that gravel requires more frequent maintenance (top-ups and grading), while asphalt and concrete have higher upfront cost but different maintenance cycles; poor drainage or clay soils in Orangefield can raise prep costs for all three.
Hello Gravel's standard delivery is 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is often available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Same-day delivery may be possible occasionally depending on local supplier and truck availability, but it is not guaranteed. We recommend checking zip code availability and selecting the delivery date in checkout for the most reliable timing.
Open-graded, angular stones like #57 (3/4 inch) or 3/4" crushed stone allow good surface drainage while providing traction; pair them with a compactable base (crusher run) beneath for stability. Avoid smooth river rock on high-use driveways because it can roll and form channels; for heavy rain events, design a crowned driveway and add drainage swales or culverts so water is diverted away from the surface. Using layered construction (fabric, compacted base, and a well-draining surface mix) gives the best combination of drainage and durability.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if you request it at checkout, but this is not guaranteed and depends on site access and safety. Hello Gravel coordinates delivery with professional dump truck fleets; for guaranteed spreading, ask a local contractor for installation or request a spreading crew when placing your order. Always include delivery notes about access, obstacles, and preferred drop location to help the driver assess spreading feasibility.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
