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.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Santa Clara Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Santa Clara, West Texas, with a city population of 1.0+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, is experiencing steady expansion at a growth rate of 0.70% annually. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with about 228 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 34.25 inches—supports year-round outdoor projects and drives steady demand for practical, low-maintenance landscaping and stormwater-ready hardscapes. Homeowners and small contractors are increasingly focused on solutions that handle occasional heavy rain, intense sun exposure, and the region’s native soils. That creates consistent need for quality aggregates that control erosion, improve drainage, and provide long-lasting surfaces for driveways, paths, and planting beds. Locally sourced gravel that fits regional grading, texture, and color preferences helps projects perform better and reduces maintenance over time, which is why many Santa Clara residents prioritize dependable material specifications and reliable delivery when planning yard or property upgrades.Popular Projects in Santa Clara This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Santa Clara gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Santa Clara.
Prices vary by gravel type and local supplier, but in West Texas expect roughly $40 to $100 per ton delivered for common gravels. Finer decorative gravels and specialty stone sit at the higher end. Use Hello Gravel to get an exact quote for your zip code and the material you need.
For most Santa Clara driveways a 3/4" crushed stone or crusher-run (mixed fines and stone) works best because it compacts well and sheds water. Pea gravel looks nice but shifts more and needs edging and a solid base. Ask our team about local supplier options and a recommended depth for your driveway slope and soil type.
Very fine gravel is commonly called pea gravel or screenings when it is tiny and rounded. Screenings or stone dust are the smallest crushed particles used for leveling and compacting. Tell Hello Gravel what you plan to use it for so we can recommend the right product and depth.
No. Sand is made of much smaller particles than gravel and has different uses—sand is used for leveling, bedding, and drainage mixes while gravel is used for driveways, paths, and base material. In Santa Clara projects you often need both: a sand bedding layer for pavers and gravel above for drainage and appearance.
Costs depend on truck size, load weight, and material; a typical tri-axle load in our network carries about 10 to 12 tons. Expect delivered pricing to reflect material type, distance, and any access or spreading requested; contact Hello Gravel for an itemized quote and delivery options for your address. Remember our minimum order is 3 tons and standard delivery is 2+ business days.
For a 100 ft long driveway, assume a 10 ft width and 4" depth as a baseline: that equals about 5 cubic yards, or roughly 6.5 to 7 tons depending on the gravel density. If you want a thicker base for heavy vehicles (6"), plan on closer to 10 tons. Use our material calculator or contact Hello Gravel with your exact width and depth to get a precise estimate.
Cost depends on width, depth, and gravel type; for a 20 ft long driveway at a 10 ft width and 4" depth you need roughly 1 cubic yard (about 1.3 to 1.5 tons). With local delivered gravel prices, that could range from a low cost for basic rock up to more for decorative stone, plus delivery—contact Hello Gravel for an exact total including delivery and any spreading requests. Remember next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
You can put gravel directly on dirt for short-term or light-use areas, but in West Texas soils that can lead to sinking, weed growth, and uneven surfaces over time. For lasting results we recommend removing top vegetation, adding a compacted base (gravel or crushed stone) and using landscape fabric where appropriate. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to spread, but this is at their discretion and not guaranteed.
A compacted layer of crushed stone or crusher-run is the preferred base in Santa Clara because it locks together and improves drainage. In many landscaping projects a geotextile fabric is added beneath the base to reduce weed growth and keep base material from mixing with native soil. Our team can recommend base depth based on use—walkways need less than driveways or parking areas.
Gravel itself does not turn into concrete, but products like crusher-run or rock with fines can compact tightly and form a hard surface similar to a stabilized base. For true hardening, a stabilized gravel mix or adding a binding agent (polymeric stabilizer or concrete binder) is required. Ask about local stabilized aggregate options and whether they are appropriate for your Santa Clara project.
Gravel can reduce some pests by eliminating moist organic surfaces where bugs breed, but it does not fully prevent insects like ants or scorpions common in West Texas. Keeping vegetation trimmed, avoiding mulch directly against foundations, and using proper drainage reduces pest habitat. If pest control is a concern we recommend consulting local pest services in addition to hardscaping with gravel.
#3 gravel is typically pea-sized to 1/2" to 1" irregular crushed stone that is commonly used for drainage, top layers, and decorative applications. It has a relatively uniform size and good compaction for paths and light driveways. Regional suppliers in Santa Clara may call similar mixes by different names, so check photos or request a sample when ordering.
Common downsides include shifting under traffic, weed growth if not properly weed-proofed, and dust in hot, dry West Texas conditions. Gravel can also be noisy underfoot and may require periodic raking or topping up after heavy rains. Plan for proper base preparation and drainage to minimize these issues and schedule occasional maintenance.
The most budget-friendly options are usually local crushed rock or base rock (crusher-run) because they are sourced nearby and have minimal processing. Decorative or color-treated gravels cost more due to processing and transport. Use Hello Gravel to compare local supplier price options and choose the best value for your project needs.
For a 55-gallon aquarium you typically need about 20 to 40 pounds of aquarium-safe gravel to create a 1 to 2 inch layer, depending on particle size. Use gravel specifically sold for aquariums rather than construction gravel, and rinse it thoroughly before adding it to the tank. Hello Gravel sells bulk landscaping products but not aquarium-grade substrates—check pet supply stores for that material.
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.
