Frequently Asked Questions - Riviera gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Riviera.
Material prices in West Texas vary by type, but expect common gravels to run roughly $20 to $60 per ton (about $28 to $84 per cubic yard using a 1.4 tons/yd3 conversion). Delivery and basic spreading/compaction add cost: delivery is often included nearby but can add $0 to $30+ per ton for longer hauls, and mechanical spreading/compaction or contractor labor is commonly $10 to $30+ per ton. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers standard 2+ business day delivery or a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST with an extra fee.
For driveways and parking pads choose angular crushed stone like crushed limestone or #57 crushed rock because it locks together, drains well, and resists washout during storms. For patios and walking areas decomposed granite (stabilized or compacted) and crushed granite give a more finished look and compact well; pea gravel and river rock are decorative but tend to move and are not recommended for vehicle surfaces. Regional sourcing means appearance and exact particle sizes vary locally, so request photos or notes at checkout if color matters.
Use area x depth/27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 to estimate tons. A 10x30 single-car driveway at 3" is about 3 cubic yards (~4 to 5 tons). A 20x40 two-car driveway at 3" is about 7.4 cubic yards (~10 to 11 tons). A 1,000 sq ft patio at 3" is about 9.3 cubic yards (~13 tons). Add 5%-15% extra to account for compaction, grading, and waste.
Hot, dry conditions in Riviera can bake fines into dust and increase tracking, while infrequent heavy rains can cause localized washouts. Choose angular, well-draining material and plan for a firm base and proper slope to shed water; consider geotextile fabric under the base in erosion-prone spots. Expect more frequent top-ups or light raking after storms and add dust-control or stabilizer options if dust or tracking is a concern.
Common add-ons include delivery minimums (Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum), tailgate spreading or contractor labor for spreading and compaction, geotextile fabric, edging or borders, grading or base rock, and any local permit or HOA fees. Typical extra costs can range from a few hundred dollars for DIY supplies and fabric to several hundred or more for paid spreading, compaction, and edging work. Ask for a detailed quote so you can compare material-only versus delivered-and-installed pricing.
Stabilized gravel and polymer binders can greatly reduce dust, raveling, and tracking and create a firmer, lower-maintenance surface compared with loose gravel. They cost more up front and make later changes harder, and performance depends on the binder type and traffic load. For homeowners wanting reduced maintenance in Riviera's dry climate, stabilized mixes are worth considering—ask suppliers for local references and warranty details.
Suppliers in nearby towns (for example Kingsville and Corpus Christi areas) commonly stock crushed limestone, #57, pea gravel, and decomposed granite, with materials reflecting local geology. Through Hello Gravel you can usually get standard materials delivered in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery possible for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; specialty colors or sizes may take longer. Always confirm availability and any minimums when ordering, since rural deliveries sometimes require longer haul fees.
Regulations vary: many rural properties in and around Riviera have fewer restrictions, but county rules often apply for driveways accessing county roads or culverts. If you belong to an HOA, check the covenants before installing gravel because some HOAs restrict material type, color, or dust controls. Contact Kleberg County, your city planning office if applicable, and your HOA to confirm requirements before starting work.
Measure the length and width in feet, multiply for square feet, then multiply by the desired depth in feet (for example 3" is 0.25 ft) and divide by 27 to get cubic yards. To convert to tons multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 (density varies by material). Finally, add 5%-15% extra material for compaction, grading, and waste depending on the project and traffic load.
Tell Hello Gravel and add notes at checkout about gate width, overhead clearance, long driveways, and any soft or unpaved access so suppliers can match truck size and plan the drop. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed; consider hiring a local contractor for spreading and compaction if precise placement is needed. Also pick a clear, level dump spot and be prepared to communicate with the driver on arrival to avoid extra handling costs.
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.
