Why Runge Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Runge is a small but growing West Texas community with a city population of 1,130 and a surrounding metro area population of 31,418. With a steady growth rate of 1.70% annually, local homeowners and small-scale contractors are increasingly tackling projects that require reliable aggregates. Runge’s climate—223 sunny days per year, 32.01 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 9a—creates conditions where materials must perform well under intense sun and occasional heavy rains. That combination drives demand for durable, well-draining materials for driveways, pathways, erosion control, and French drains. Homeowners look for gravel that resists washout, limits dust, and provides long-term stability in sandy or loamy soils common to the region.Popular Projects in Runge This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Runge gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Runge.
For Runge and West Texas, a typical tri-axle dump truck load (about 10–12 cubic yards or roughly 13–18 tons depending on material) usually costs in the range of $300 to $1,000 delivered. Exact price depends on the gravel type, distance from the supplier to Runge, and availability; remote delivery can push costs toward the higher end.
In West Texas you can expect delivered gravel prices roughly between $30 and $70 per cubic yard and about $25 to $60 per ton, depending on type (decorative vs. crushed base), local availability, and delivery distance. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and regional sourcing means prices vary by supplier.
Costs depend on what you mean by 20 feet (length vs width) and depth. For example, a small 20 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway at 3 inches depth needs about 1.9 cubic yards (~2 tons) but the minimum order is 3 tons; material plus delivery might run $100–$250 and basic spreading/installation labor could add $200–$600, so expect roughly $300–$900 total. For larger driveways or thicker base layers, double or triple those ranges; contact us with exact dimensions for a tailored quote.
Two inches is generally too thin for a driveway in West Texas. We recommend a compacted base of 4–6 inches of crusher-run or road base with a 2–3 inch surface layer of nicer stone for the finish; this combination handles vehicle loads, drainage, and Texas weather better than a single 2-inch layer.
Materials with fines that lock together compact best: crusher run (crusher fines), road base, and some limestone mixes are commonly used to form a firm surface. These materials don’t become literal concrete, but when installed over a geotextile and properly compacted they create a very stable, hard surface suitable for driveways and pads.
G1 (also called crusher run or graded base) is a blend of stone sizes plus fines and is not a single size; 3/4-inch gravel refers to uniform pieces that pass through a 3/4-inch screen. For driveways in Runge use G1 or crusher run for the base and 3/4-inch or smaller stone for a wearing surface—base material for strength, nominal-size stone for drainage and appearance.
A cubic yard of typical gravel weighs about 2,700 to 3,000 pounds (about 1.35 to 1.5 tons). The exact weight varies by rock type and moisture content, so use 2,700 lb/yd3 as a practical estimate when calculating orders.
'Texas black gravel' commonly refers to dark decorative stone like black basalt or crushed dark limestone used for landscaping. Availability in Runge depends on nearby suppliers—some West Texas quarries or landscapers carry it, but it may be a specialty item with limited stock and higher delivery cost; check availability when you place your order.
For small projects under a few yards, bagged gravel from a big-box store can be convenient but costs more per unit. For any bulk need, a delivered truckload (minimum 3 tons with Hello Gravel) is typically the cheapest per-ton option; compare local quarries and our delivered quotes to find the best price for your location.
Avoid pea gravel for driveways, steep slopes, or anywhere you need a firm, compacted surface—it rolls and migrates and does not compact well under vehicle traffic. Pea gravel is fine for decorative beds, walkways, or play areas but can cause mowing and drainage headaches near foundations and driveways in Runge’s environment.
The 3-3-3 rule (commonly used for mulch) suggests 3 inches of mulch depth, 3 feet of clearance around tree trunks, and replenishing every 3 years. For gravel beds, the '3 inches' depth can be a starting point for decorative coverage, but gravel doesn’t break down like mulch—use 2–3 inches for top dressing, 3–4 inches for walkways, and more where erosion or concealment of underlying fabric is needed.
Multiply length × width × depth (all in feet), then divide by 27 to get cubic yards (for example, 30 ft × 10 ft × 0.25 ft ÷ 27 ≈ 2.8 yd3). Convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by about 1.35–1.5 (or use 2,700 lb/yd3 divided by 2,000 lb/ton = 1.35 tons/yd3), then round up for compaction and order minimums—Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum, so plan accordingly.
Standard delivery typically takes 2 or more business days, while next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Remote locations near Runge may face limited truck availability or surcharge, so check delivery options and fees when you place your order.
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.
