Frequently Asked Questions - Pearland gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Pearland.
Typical retail prices in the Pearland area vary by type and size: crushed limestone or crushed stone often runs about $20 to $40 per ton, pea gravel about $30 to $70 per ton, and decorative river rock commonly $50 to $100 per ton. Delivery and local sourcing can change those numbers, and Hello Gravel often shows free delivery in many ZIP codes but some suppliers add delivery fees depending on distance and truck access. For whole truckloads (tri-axle, roughly 10-14 tons), multiply the per-ton price by the load size and add any delivery fee.
In our network, most dump trucks that deliver to Pearland are tri-axle trucks carrying roughly 10 to 14 tons per load, though capacities vary by hauler. Hello Gravel has a minimum order of 3 tons; if you need less than a truckload you may still be charged for minimums or for partial loads depending on the supplier and delivery logistics. If you need an entire truck, select the truckload option at checkout or ask our team for a full-load quote.
Use this quick rule: square feet x depth (in inches) / 100 = tons. For example, a 500 sq ft driveway at 4 inches deep needs about (500 x 4)/100 = 20 tons. Typical installed depths: driveways 4 to 6 inches compacted, patios 2 to 3 inches, and walkways 1 to 2 inches; add 10-20% for compaction, settlement, and slope.
In Pearland's warm, humid climate with clay soils, angular crushed stone or crushed limestone generally performs better than smooth river rock because it locks together and resists rutting. For decorative areas and good drainage, pea gravel or screened limestone are options, but they may require a stronger compacted base or edging to keep material in place. Avoid relying solely on very fine materials over clay without a proper roadbase, since clay can hold water and cause settlement.
For typical residential vehicle use, install a compacted roadbase of 4 to 6 inches (crushed stone or crusher-run) and finish with 2 to 3 inches of surface gravel, compacting each layer. On clay soils common around Pearland, you may need a deeper, well-draining base and proper subgrade preparation to prevent rutting and ponding. For heavy trucks or repeated deliveries, increase base depth and use heavier roadbase material, and always compact with a plate or roller.
Pearland's clay-rich soils retain water and can lead to settlement, so you should plan for a thicker, well-compacted base and good drainage away from the surface. That typically means more roadbase under the finish gravel, installing grade and slope to shed water, and avoiding putting gravel directly on undisturbed clay for vehicle areas. Adding a drain or French drain in low spots can improve longevity if water regularly pools.
Permit and HOA requirements vary by neighborhood; some Pearland HOAs regulate surface materials, edging, and colors, and the city may require permits for driveway apron work or curb cuts. Before ordering, check your HOA covenants and contact the City of Pearland Planning or Engineering department for permit requirements related to impervious surfaces or driveway changes. When in doubt, request documentation or approval from your HOA and consult Hello Gravel for guidance on typical dimensions and materials.
Expect routine maintenance every 1 to 3 years: light regrading and spot replenishment after heavy rains, and a larger top-up every 2 to 5 years depending on use. For many residential driveways this is a few tons of gravel per year; labor or machine grading adds cost if you hire it out. Weed control, occasional re-compaction, and replacing displaced gravel after storms are typical items—materials and small deliveries from Hello Gravel help keep costs predictable.
Yes. Pearland has a rainy season and heavy summer storms that can make recently installed gravel susceptible to movement, rutting, and washouts if the ground is wet during installation. Schedule major installations during drier months and avoid placing gravel on soggy subgrades; compacting layers on dry, stable soil gives the best results. Also, plan for more frequent maintenance after heavy rain seasons to repair washouts and regrade low spots.
Upfront, gravel is usually the lowest-cost option per square foot and provides excellent drainage because it is permeable; however, it requires more frequent maintenance and periodic replenishment. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but typically last longer with less routine upkeep; they need proper drainage design to avoid pooling on clay soils. For homeowners wanting low cost and better stormwater infiltration, gravel is often preferred, while owners seeking low-maintenance, long-lasting surfaces may choose asphalt or concrete.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers in the Pearland area; our platform shows pricing, delivery windows, and you can choose your preferred delivery date during checkout.
