Gravel: Built For West Texas Climate • Fast Local Gravel Delivery To Driveways
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 Saratoga Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Saratoga homeowners live in a small but connected community (city population: 830) within a broader West Texas region (metro area population: 2.7+ million) that is expanding steadily (growth rate: 0.80% annually). The local semi-arid climate—Annual Rainfall: 34.25 inches, Sunny Days: 228/year, hardiness zone: 8b—means projects must balance occasional heavy rain with long stretches of sun. That drives demand for reliable, low-maintenance aggregates: gravel for driveways, drainage swales, erosion control, and water-wise landscaping. Homeowners replacing turf with xeriscaping, stabilizing rutted access roads, or improving surface drainage all look for consistent, well-graded material that compacts well and sheds water. Clear quantity estimates, transparent pricing, and scheduled local delivery are critical to keep these projects on time and on budget.Popular Projects in Saratoga This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Saratoga gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Saratoga.
Costs vary by material and distance from local quarries, but in West Texas you can generally expect delivered gravel to run roughly $30 to $70 per ton including delivery for common crushed stone. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST; final price will depend on material type, seasonality, and exact delivery location.
For Saratoga's arid, occasionally stormy climate, crushed limestone or crushed granite are solid choices because they compact well and resist migration. Decomposed granite can work for walkways and low-traffic areas but may require stabilization to resist dust; pea gravel looks nice but tends to shift and is not ideal for driveways with vehicle traffic.
A typical 1-car driveway (about 10 ft by 20 ft) at a 3-4 inch compacted depth needs roughly 3 to 4 tons of gravel, while a 2-car driveway (about 20 ft by 20 ft) at the same depth needs about 6 to 8 tons. These are approximate; exact needs depend on depth, existing base, and how much compaction you plan, and Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers serving West Texas; many materials are sourced from regional quarries in nearby hubs, so lead times depend on supplier inventory and truck availability. Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST; check your zip code at checkout for the most accurate lead times and supplier matches.
Gravel is the lowest upfront cost and easiest to install but requires regular maintenance; expect the lowest initial price per square foot. Asphalt is mid-range on cost and provides a smoother surface but may soften in extreme heat and needs resurfacing every 10-20 years. Concrete has the highest upfront cost and longest life but is more expensive to repair; local soil, drainage, and budget should guide your choice, and getting local quotes is recommended.
Plan on periodic grading after heavy rains to fix ruts and washouts and topping up thin areas every 1 to 3 years depending on traffic. Dust control is a common concern in hot, dry months; options include adding fines, a hardpack material, or chemical dust suppressants. Maintain edges and vegetation to prevent shoulder collapse, and re-compact repaired areas for best results.
Use a layered approach: a stable subgrade, geotextile fabric on highly erodible soils, a coarse aggregate base (1.5-3 inch rock) for structural support, and a compactable top layer of 3/4 inch crushed stone. Build a crown and install swales or grade breaks to shed water away from the driving surface, and compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller. For steeper slopes, add larger rock at the toe and consider retaining features or erosion control matting where needed.
Angular crushed stone with a mix of fines compacts and resists migration and dust better than round pea gravel, which tends to roll and migrate. Decomposed granite can bind well when compacted or stabilized but may still generate dust without treatment. For best dust control, consider polymer stabilizers, chloride-based suppressants, or adding a binder layer; availability and local regulations may affect your options.
Installed costs depend on access, site prep, and material choice; a rough local range for a basic gravel driveway is about $1.00 to $3.00 per square foot. More complex jobs with grading, drainage work, or additional base rock can raise the price; always get multiple local quotes and ask whether delivery, spreading, and compaction are included in the price.
Resurfacing usually involves hauling in new material, spreading, and compacting; many homeowners top up thin areas with 1 to 3 inches of new gravel. Expect material plus delivery to commonly cost in the range of $30 to $70 per ton delivered, though Hello Gravel offers free delivery in many areas—check your zip code. If you need grading or recompact services, labor or equipment rental will add to the cost.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request this at checkout but it is not guaranteed. Hello Gravel’s suppliers instruct drivers to assess site access and safety upon arrival, so spreading depends on the driver, truck type, and property access.
Not always. Because Hello Gravel sources materials regionally, color, texture, and particle shape can vary based on local geology, so the delivered material may differ from online photos. You can add color or texture preferences in Order Notes, and our team can advise on local options before you confirm 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.
