Why Port Aransas Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Port Aransas, West Texas, Texas is a small but active coastal community with a population of 3,230. With steady growth of 0.71% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain per year in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners here face a mix of sun, salt, wind, and occasional heavy rainfall. Those conditions create steady demand for aggregates that improve drainage, control erosion, and provide low-maintenance surfaces. Homeowners choose quality gravel for driveways, pathways, French drains, and erosion-control barriers because properly specified rock reduces rutting, improves runoff, and stands up better to coastal exposure than loose sand or recycled materials. Gravel for Port Aransas projects typically emphasizes washed, angular stone and hard rock mixes that shed water and resist migration in sandy soils. Good gravel improves drainage after storms and helps stabilize paths and driveways under frequent sun and coastal winds. Hello Gravel makes sourcing those materials simple by connecting you with local suppliers and contracted haulers, offering transparent pricing, scheduled delivery (minimum orders start at 3 tons), and delivery options including standard 2+ business days or a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST. Request tailgate spreading at checkout and add placement notes; drivers will assess spreading feasibility on arrival.Popular Projects in Port Aransas This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Port Aransas gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Port Aransas.
Port Aransas beaches vary: some stretches on Mustang Island have finer, lighter sand while areas near jetties and high-shell zones show coarser, mixed sand and shell fragments. If you plan to add gravel for pathways or driveways, choose material that complements the local beach grade (finer washed sand or small crushed shell for coastal looks, coarser crushed stone for stability). Expect local appearance variation and mention color preferences in your order notes.
You can buy small bags of white play sand at local hardware stores, but bulk white sand is more commonly sourced from nearby suppliers in Corpus Christi or Rockport and delivered. Hello Gravel can connect you with local suppliers and haulers for bulk delivery; keep in mind our minimum order is 3 tons and material availability can vary by season and region.
Yes, crushed shell and shell-based aggregates are common locally and often used around Port Aransas because they match the coastal look and drain well. These materials can be great for walkways and beachside landscaping, but they may break down faster than crushed rock and can shift under heavy vehicle use.
The Port Aransas ferry crossing typically adds vehicle queue time and roughly 15 to 25 minutes of transit per trip, and busy weekends can add more delay. Our delivery scheduling accounts for ferry time, but plan for potential extra wait time and consider scheduling earlier in the week when traffic is lighter.
Yes, downtown Port Aransas has a few hardware and landscaping stores that sell small bags of decorative gravel, sand, and shell for home projects. For bulk loads and scheduled dump-truck delivery, customers usually source from regional suppliers that serve the Coastal Bend; Hello Gravel can arrange those deliveries to your Port Aransas address.
For driveways, a well-graded crushed stone like 3/4" crushed limestone or recycled concrete provides durability and compaction. For beachfront landscaping and paths, washed shell or 3/8" to 1/2" crushed shell and coarse sand blends look natural and drain well. For erosion-prone zones, gravel alone is not a long-term fix; combine appropriate aggregate with vegetation, hardscaping, or engineered protection and check local rules first.
Loose gravel placed directly on unconsolidated beach sand can shift, sink, or be moved by tides and storms, especially during rough weather. Use geotextile fabric, a compacted base, edging, or proper grade to stabilize material for driveways and walkways, and avoid placing bulk material below the high-tide line without permits.
Yes. Tropical storm and hurricane season (June through November) increases the risk of washout and can disrupt deliveries, so avoid major surface work during peak storm months when possible. Wet winter and spring conditions reduce compaction and may make spreading harder, so plan deliveries for drier periods and confirm driver capabilities at checkout.
Placing gravel on private property usually does not require a permit, but any work seaward of the mean high tide line, on public beach, or that affects dunes typically requires permits from the City of Port Aransas or state agencies. Check with the City of Port Aransas and the Texas General Land Office before moving bulk material onto public beach or making changes to dune systems.
Measure the length and width of the area, multiply to get square feet, then decide the depth in inches. A simple rule: 1 ton covers roughly 80 to 100 square feet at 1 inch depth, so divide your total cubic inches by 12 and use that rule to estimate tons; for convenience use Hello Gravel's online material calculator or contact our team for a quick quote and minimum 3-ton order guidance.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
