Why San Leon Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
San Leon is a growing West Texas city with a population of 1.0+ million and a surrounding metro area of 2.5+ million. Its climate — about 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 8b — supports year-round outdoor work but also creates specific needs for drainage and erosion control. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, new construction, driveway repairs, and landscaping upgrades are frequent, increasing demand for reliable aggregates. Homeowners choose gravel because it stabilizes driveways, improves drainage, reduces mud after storms, and provides a low-maintenance surface that stands up to intense sun exposure and periodic heavy rains. Regional sourcing means texture and color vary, so selecting the right size and blend matters for longevity and appearance.Popular Projects in San Leon This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - San Leon gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in San Leon.
Delivered gravel costs in San Leon vary by material type, distance from the local supplier, and load size. For many common gravels, residents typically see an all-in delivered price in the range of about $70 to $150 per ton, though heavy decorative rock can be higher. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. For an accurate quote, use our calculator or request a local delivery estimate.
For San Leon properties, crushed limestone (3/4" or 3/8") is a common choice for driveways because it compacts well and holds up under heat and truck traffic. Pea gravel and river rock are nice for decorative landscaping and drainage features, but they shift more under vehicles. Decomposed granite gives a natural look and packs well for paths but may need stabilizer in high-traffic areas; consider local climate and intended use when choosing.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers that service San Leon; each supplier sets specific minimums but our platform has a 3-ton minimum per order. Some quarries and yards near the area may accept smaller pickup orders, while commercial deliveries typically start at 3 tons or more. If you need less than 3 tons, ask about small-load options or pickup at a local supplier.
Use area (ft2) x depth (ft) / 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 to convert to tons (this is an average for dense gravel). Examples: a 10x30 driveway (300 ft2) needs about 2.6 tons at 2" and 5.2 tons at 4"; a 12x40 (480 ft2) needs about 4.2 tons at 2" and 8.3 tons at 4"; a 20x50 (1,000 ft2) needs about 8.6 tons at 2" and 17.3 tons at 4". Always add 10% for compaction and settling and round up to the next whole ton; remember Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons.
Gravel performs well in hot, dry climates but requires periodic maintenance: regrading low spots, adding fresh gravel (topping) every few years, and removing weeds. Expect to regrade after heavy rains or if washboarding appears; topping frequency depends on vehicle use but many homeowners add 1/2 to 1 inch of new material every 2–5 years. Use edging and proper slope to control migration, and consider weed fabric or a weed-control program for cleaner results.
Gravel is lowest cost upfront and easy to repair after washouts, but it can rut and wash away under heavy truck traffic or major flooding. Asphalt gives a smoother, more durable surface for frequent heavy use but costs more and may need professional installation and permits; it also does not drain as well. Pavers offer the most durable, attractive option and can be made permeable, but they are the most expensive; choose based on traffic, budget, and whether your site is flood-prone.
Permit and HOA rules vary by location, so check with your local city or county permitting office and your HOA before starting work in San Leon. Common triggers for permits include driveway cutouts, changes to drainage, or work within a floodplain or right-of-way. If you are unsure, contact Hello Gravel or your local permitting office for guidance before ordering materials.
Installed gravel costs depend on site prep, base material, and access. In San Leon, small residential projects often range roughly from $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for full installation (grading, base, and compaction), with larger or more complex jobs costing more. Get a local install estimate to account for excavation, disposal, and any drainage work—Hello Gravel can help connect you with pros for quotes.
Hello Gravel schedules standard deliveries in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; final timing depends on local supplier and truck availability. Deliveries are made by contracted dump trucks (often tri-axle); make sure there is clear access and a safe drop area for the truck. You can request tailgate spreading at checkout, but drivers perform spreading only at their discretion and it is not guaranteed.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
