Why Palmhurst Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Palmhurst has a city population of 25,000 and sits inside a metro area of 865,000, growing at 3.20% annually. With a warm hardiness zone of 9b, about 264 sunny days per year, and roughly 22.00 inches of annual rainfall, local homeowners face a sunny, relatively dry climate that shapes landscaping and construction choices. That steady growth is driving demand for home-improvement projects—driveways, patios, drainage upgrades, and low-maintenance yards—and those projects rely on quality aggregates. Homeowners choose reliable gravel to control erosion, improve drainage, prevent rutting on driveways, and create low-water landscape features that stand up to Palmhurst’s sun and seasonal storms.Popular Projects in Palmhurst This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Palmhurst gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Palmhurst.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect bulk gravel in the Palmhurst area to run roughly $20 to $60 per ton depending on type (crusher-run and base stone at the low end, decorative pea gravel and river rock at the high end). Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and shows upfront pricing during checkout; delivery fees in South Texas commonly range from free to $75-$150 for tri-axle truck delivery when not included. For an exact cost to your property, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote since local supplier stock and truck accessibility affect final price.
Common local options include crushed stone (#57 and 3/4"), crusher-run (road base), pea gravel, decomposed granite, and river rock. Typical bulk price ranges in the Palmhurst area are about $20-$35 per ton for crusher-run and crushed stone, $25-$50 per ton for decomposed granite, and $35-$60+ per ton for pea gravel and river rock, with decorative sizes costing more. Regional variation applies, so check Hello Gravel listings for photos and exact pricing for your delivery date.
Using a common 4-inch compacted depth and converting 1 cubic yard to about 1.3 tons, estimates are: 1-car (10'x20') about 3 to 4 tons, 2-car (20'x20') about 6 to 7 tons, and 3-car (30'x20') about 9 to 10 tons. If you want a deeper base (5-6 inches) or a thicker finish layer, increase those amounts proportionally. Remember Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons, so a small 1-car project may meet the minimum but check your exact measurements before ordering.
As a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth, which is roughly 1.3 tons per cubic yard. For example, a 4-foot-wide by 50-foot walkway at 3" depth needs about 2 cubic yards (2.6 tons), and a 10'x10' patio base at 4" depth needs about 1.2 cubic yards (about 1.6 tons). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator to convert your exact dimensions into tons for ordering.
Palmhurst and Hidalgo County have clay-rich soils and a South Texas climate with hot summers and occasional heavy rains, which can reduce surface drainage and increase rutting after storms. That means you should plan for good subbase preparation, positive slope/drainage, and more frequent maintenance after heavy downpours. Expect to regrade or add material sooner than in more temperate, well-draining soils, and consider weed control because warm climates encourage regrowth.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and trucking partners; some haulers or landscapers in the Palmhurst area offer tailgate spreading for an extra fee, but spreading is performed at the driver's or contractor's discretion. Typical local rates for spreading vary widely—roughly $40-$200 minimum or $5-$15 per ton depending on site access, driveway length, and complexity. Request spreading at checkout and note that Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading; confirm fees with the supplier or contractor before delivery.
Permits and HOA rules vary by neighborhood and municipality; Palmhurst city regulations and local HOAs may have restrictions on driveway materials, visibility triangles, and erosion controls. Before installing, check Palmhurst city codes or contact your HOA to confirm allowable materials, setback rules, and any stormwater or erosion requirements. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel for advice and plan permits or approvals before ordering materials.
Contractors working in South Texas often recommend a well-compacted crusher-run (road base) subbase of 4-6 inches, geotextile fabric to separate clay soils from the aggregate, and surface stone on top for traction. For steeper slopes consider geogrid or grid stabilization products, terracing with edging, and proper drainage channels to prevent washouts during heavy rains. These methods reduce rutting and displacement on clay soils and make maintenance easier in Palmhurst's climate.
A well-built gravel driveway in Palmhurst can last many years, but surface material typically needs topping up every 2-5 years and more often after severe storms or heavy use. Regular maintenance includes annual or seasonal regrading to fix ruts, adding 1/2 to 1 inch of new gravel as needed, keeping edges defined, and applying weed control once a year or as needed. For best results, inspect after rainy seasons and plan to add fresh material every few years to maintain appearance and drainage.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
