Gravel: Engineered For Robstown Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivered In Robstown
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 Robstown Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Robstown has a city population of 18,850 and sits within a growing West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.7+ million and a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually. The local climate—228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall of 35.50 inches, and a hardiness zone of 8b—creates building and landscaping needs that favor durable, well-draining materials. As homeowners add driveways, patios, and water-wise landscaping, demand for reliable aggregates rises: gravel is sought for erosion control, long-lasting drive surfaces, French drains, and permeable paths that stand up to both sun and seasonal rain. Quality, locally sourced aggregates help projects finish faster and perform better in Robstown’s specific weather and soil conditions. Gravel is particularly well suited to Robstown’s environment because it promotes drainage where 35.50 inches of annual rainfall can concentrate runoff, and its open, angular particles resist shifting under frequent sun and dry spells. Homeowners choose gravel for quick installations—driveways, base layers, and dry creek beds—and for low-maintenance xeriscaping that fits the 228 sunny days per year. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right gravel by connecting you with local suppliers, offering clear pricing, scheduled deliveries (standard delivery in 2+ business days, next-day available before noon CST), a 3-ton minimum order, and optional tailgate spreading at the driver’s discretion. We handle coordination so your material arrives on time and ready for installation.Popular Projects in Robstown This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Robstown gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Robstown.
In Robstown you can expect delivered gravel prices to vary by type and supplier; a common range is about $30 to $70 per ton for basic crushed stone or pea gravel, and roughly $40 to $100 per cubic yard. Final price depends on aggregate type, color, distance from quarry, seasonal demand, and whether delivery or spreading is included — get an exact quote through Hello Gravel for your zip code.
For driveways in Robstown, crushed limestone or crushed granite (3/4" to 1") are popular for load-bearing and good compaction. Pea gravel and decomposed granite work well for walkways and garden accents but may shift more in heavy rain; choose crushed stone with angular particles for driveways and pea or DG for decorative areas, and note that local suppliers may offer region-specific blends.
Approximate quantities using 3" depth unless noted: 1-car driveway (12x20) needs about 2.2 cubic yards or ~3 tons; 2-car driveway (20x20) needs about 3.7 cubic yards or ~5 tons; 20x20 parking pad at 4" depth needs about 5.9 cubic yards or ~8 to 9 tons; a 100 sq ft garden bed at 2" depth needs ~0.62 cubic yards or about 1 ton (at 3" depth ~0.93 yd3 or ~1.3 tons). These are estimates; use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or request a quote to confirm quantities for your chosen material and compaction.
Hot, dry conditions in Robstown can cause fine dust and settlement, while heavy rains can wash or rut loose material without proper base and drainage. To minimize issues, use angular crushed stone for better locking, install proper grading and drainage (swales or French drains), and plan for periodic regrading and top-dressing after storm events.
Local suppliers typically offer bulk delivery by dump truck (tri-axle), optional tailgate spreading at the driver’s discretion, and sometimes hauling and small-scale spreading or compaction through contractor partners. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and haulers and can list nearby contractors who provide edging, compaction, and full installation services — confirm availability and fees when you order.
In Robstown, light-use gravel driveways may need topping up every 2 to 5 years, while high-traffic driveways or areas exposed to washouts may require touch-ups or regrading every 1 to 2 years. Regular maintenance like filling ruts, regrading grades, and adding 1 to 2 inches of fresh material where needed will extend life and keep drainage working properly.
Gravel has a lower upfront cost and excellent drainage for Robstown’s rain events, and it handles heat well, but it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or pavers. Asphalt provides a smoother, lower-maintenance surface but costs more and may need edge and drainage work; pavers are durable and decorative but have higher material and installation costs and may require a solid base for stability. We recommend weighing budget, desired look, and maintenance tolerance when deciding.
Use a compacted crushed-stone base, geotextile fabric to separate soil from aggregate, proper grading to direct water away, and edging (stone, timber, or steel) to hold material. On slopes, consider terracing, retaining walls, or check dams and install swales or French drains to intercept runoff — these techniques reduce washouts during heavy Robstown rains.
Regulations and HOA rules vary; many residential areas allow gravel driveways but may have setbacks, curb, or aesthetic rules and local stormwater requirements. Check Robstown city code, Nueces County permitting, and any HOA guidelines before ordering material — Hello Gravel recommends confirming zoning and HOA rules to avoid rework.
Beyond material cost, plan for optional expenses: compaction by plate or roller ($200 to $600 for small jobs), geotextile fabric ($0.20 to $0.75 per sq ft depending on grade), edging (varies widely by material), and extra hauling charges if your site is far from local quarries. Exact costs vary by supplier and job scope, so request a detailed quote through Hello Gravel to see itemized options.
Choose smaller, angular crushed stone (3/8" to 3/4") for better interlock and less movement in beds; pea gravel is decorative but can migrate and show dust. For color, regional limestone blends weather to lighter tones in West Texas — add color preference in order notes but expect natural variation due to local sourcing.
Mark your preferred drop location, clear access for a dump truck (at least one-way room for a tri-axle), remove low-hanging branches, and note any driveway weight limits or gate codes. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if desired (driver will decide if safe), and contact Hello Gravel support if you need help planning logistics or recommending installers.
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.
