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 Post Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Post has a population of 3,510 and sits within a growing West Texas region, with a metro area population of 2.7+ million and an annual growth rate of 0.80%. The local climate features 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and the area falls in hardiness zone 8b. Those conditions create steady demand for reliable aggregates as homeowners and builders balance dust control, drainage, and durable surfaces under intense sun and occasional heavy rains. Whether homeowners are finishing a driveway, stabilizing a low spot, or building a garden path, they look for materials that handle heat, shed water, and resist washout in Post’s terrain, making informed choices about grade, angularity, and particle size essential for long-lasting results. Gravel is a particularly good fit for Post’s environment because it provides excellent drainage and reduces surface erosion compared with finer materials. In areas with 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, well-graded, angular gravel helps keep water moving away from foundations and prevents pooling, while the sun and low humidity in this climate preserve the aggregate’s long-term stability. Hello Gravel connects homeowners in Post with local suppliers and haul teams, offering transparent pricing, scheduled deliveries (standard 2+ business days and next-day options for qualifying orders), and expert guidance to pick the right gravel for driveways, French drains, walkways, and landscaping projects.Popular Projects in Post This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Post gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Post.
In Post and surrounding West Texas, common crushed gravel typically runs about $20 to $45 per ton depending on size and type, with specialty rock costing more. Delivery fees vary because many suppliers are rural; expect anywhere from free (for close deliveries) up to $150-$300 for longer hauls, and Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum. We recommend checking checkout for your exact price and delivery estimate for your zip code.
Crushed limestone and caliche-style gravels are widely used in West Texas because they compact well, resist dust, and match local soils. Decomposed granite gives a natural look and packs firmly in dry climates, while river rock is decorative but can shift more under traffic. Choose crushed stone for driveways and decomposed granite or river rock for low-traffic landscaping.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers in the Post area; many source material within 20-60 miles. In rural West Texas, some suppliers will deliver from farther away, which can increase lead time and delivery fees. Use our zip code checker at checkout to see which suppliers and delivery options are available for your address.
For an average 1-car driveway (about 10 ft by 20 ft) at a 3 in surface depth you will need roughly 2.5 to 3.5 tons, which usually meets Hello Gravel's 3-ton minimum. For a 2-car driveway (about 20 ft by 20 ft) at 3 in depth plan on about 5 to 6 tons; increasing base depth to 4-6 in will raise those quantities. Use our material calculator or contact us with your driveway dimensions to get a precise estimate.
In hot, arid Post, gravel driveways typically last 10 to 25 years with periodic maintenance. Expect to regrade and add fresh surface material every 2 to 7 years depending on traffic and rainfall runoff; high-use driveways need more frequent replenishment. Simple maintenance like grading low spots and topping up gravel will extend the driveway life.
Yes, properly sized gravel is very effective for drainage and erosion control in West Texas where heavy summer storms can cause runoff. Use larger angular rock for channels and smaller, well-graded material for surface areas, and consider geotextile fabric and graded swales to stabilize slopes. If you have steep sections or concentrated flows, add riprap or rock-lined swales to reduce erosion.
A rough breakdown for a gravel driveway in Post is materials 30% to 50% of the total, hauling and delivery 10% to 30% (higher in rural hauls), and base prep/labor and equipment 30% to 50%. Base preparation—grading, compaction, and drainage—can be the most costly but has the biggest impact on longevity. We can provide quotes that separate materials and labor so you can compare costs for your property.
Crushed limestone: durable, compacts well, good for driveways and areas needing load-bearing surface. Decomposed granite: attractive, packs into a firm surface for paths and patios but can erode if not stabilized. River rock: decorative and great for dry creek beds and landscaping, but it shifts under vehicles and is not ideal for driveways without edging or stabilization.
Local requirements vary—some town or county jurisdictions and HOA rules may restrict surface materials, colors, or drainage changes. Post is a small town; check with the city offices or your HOA before installing a driveway to confirm any setback, material, or drainage rules. If in doubt, contact our team and we can point you to common local contacts and advice for permit checks.
In rural West Texas around Post, haul distances are often longer, which increases delivery fees and the final per-ton price compared with metro areas where quarries are closer. Greater distance can add $50 to several hundred dollars to delivery, so final cost depends heavily on supplier location and road access. Hello Gravel shows supplier options and delivery estimates so you can compare price impacts of haul distance.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The minimum order size is 3 tons.
