Why Port O'Connor Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Port O'Connor is part of a growing regional market — city population: 993,588 — with a steady growth rate: 0.40% annually. The semi-arid West Texas climate and geography, marked by 228 sunny days per year and annual rainfall: 34.25 inches, shape local building and landscaping needs. As development adapts to this climate and the broader metro area population: 2.5+ million supports steady demand, homeowners increasingly rely on durable, well-draining aggregates. Quality gravel helps stabilize driveways and walkways, improve drainage, and reduce erosion under heavy sun and periodic storms. Clear guidance on gravel size, depth, and placement prevents common mistakes, so many homeowners look for suppliers who understand local geology and can coordinate timely delivery and professional dump-truck service.Popular Projects in Port O'Connor This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Port O'Connor gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Port O'Connor.
Residential gravel delivery in Port O'Connor typically runs in a broad range depending on material and distance from local quarries. Expect approximately $40 to $90 per ton delivered for common gravels, with small-load delivery or remote drops pushing costs higher; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, and delivery fees or next-day options may add to the total.
Near Port O'Connor you will commonly find crushed limestone, pea gravel, river rock, and shell mixes; availability reflects local coastal geology. For driveways, angular crushed limestone or crushed rock is usually best because it compacts well, while pea gravel and river rock look nice but can shift and be harder to maintain.
Using a typical crushed stone density of about 1.4 tons per cubic yard, plan on roughly 0.0086 tons per sq ft at 2", 0.0130 tons per sq ft at 3", and 0.0173 tons per sq ft at 4". For a quick example, a 1,000 sq ft area needs about 8.6 tons at 2", 13.0 tons at 3", and 17.3 tons at 4"—always round up and allow extra for compaction and washout.
Port O'Connor's sandy soils and coastal rains generally help surface drainage, but heavy storms, storm surge, and washouts can displace loose gravel. To improve longevity use angular stone that locks when compacted, add a proper base and geotextile fabric to separate from sand, and plan for edging to reduce migration during heavy rain events.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers who deliver by dump truck; many local landscapers and contractors offer installation and grading. Typical professional installation for a driveway (grading, base prep, spreading, and compaction) can range widely—often $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft or a per-ton spreading charge—so get quotes and check whether drivers can tailgate-spread at delivery.
For erosion control near the shore use larger, angular stone or riprap-sized rock rather than pea gravel; size and slope stability matter more than decorative stone. Combine larger rock with geotextile fabric and proper drainage, and consult local shoreline regulations because coastal protections can limit what you install.
Expect to do light maintenance after major storms and periodic regrading once a year to address ruts and low spots; adding 1 to 3 inches of fresh gravel every 1 to 3 years is common depending on traffic and runoff. Areas that see concentrated flow or storm surge may need more frequent touch-ups.
Gravel has a lower upfront cost, allows better drainage, and is easier to repair after storm damage, which can be a benefit in Port O'Connor's coastal, flood-prone areas. Concrete and pavers are more durable and low-maintenance long term but cost significantly more up front and may require engineered drainage to handle coastal conditions.
Many coastal municipalities and HOAs have rules about driveway materials, curb appearances, and shoreline work, so check the City of Port O'Connor ordinances and any HOA covenants before installing gravel. If in doubt, contact local planning or your HOA and confirm any setback, drainage, or impervious-surface requirements.
Common mistakes include ordering the wrong type (decorative vs. compactable), underordering material, skipping a proper base or geotextile, and ignoring drainage and edging—each can lead to shifting, mixing with sand, and frequent repairs. To avoid problems, choose an appropriate stone for your use, allow for extra material, and plan for drainage and compaction.
Make sure there is truck access and a clear drop location free of overhead wires or soft ground; note that deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks and drivers may or may not be able to tailgate-spread at their discretion. Add access notes during checkout, allow the minimum 3-ton order size, and request next-day delivery before noon CST if you need it quickly.
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.
