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.

Why Sherman Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Sherman is a West Texas city of 46,871 and part of a growing metro area of 2.5+ million. With a steady annual growth rate of 0.70% and 233 sunny days each year, homeowners here are increasingly investing in outdoor upgrades, driveways, and erosion control. Sherman’s climate—moderate rainfall at 34.68 inches per year and a planting hardiness zone of 8b—creates demand for materials that handle both sun exposure and periodic heavy rain. That means local projects need aggregates that offer good drainage, long-term stability, and low maintenance. Homeowners choose quality gravel to protect foundations and walkways, prevent mud during wet spells, and create durable, dust-minimizing surfaces that stand up to West Texas weather and expanding residential development.Popular Projects in Sherman This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Sherman gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Sherman.
Material prices in Sherman usually range from about $30 to $80 per ton depending on type (pea gravel and river rock tend to cost more than crushed limestone). Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and many local suppliers include delivery in the quoted price, but expect additional fees for next-day service or long haul distances. If you hire a contractor to prepare and compact a driveway, total installed costs for a typical 20'x40' driveway often fall in the low thousands; DIY installation lowers that cost but adds labor and equipment needs.
Crushed limestone is the most common aggregate around Sherman due to nearby quarries, with pea gravel, river rock, and occasional crushed granite also available from regional suppliers. Availability varies by season and supplier, so Hello Gravel connects you with local yards that can confirm current stock and color/texture options. Because materials reflect local geology, expect some color and texture variation compared to photos.
For Sherman’s hot summers and occasional freezes, angular crushed stone (like crushed limestone or crushed granite) performs best because it locks together and resists shifting. Smooth river rock and pea gravel look nice but can migrate and rut under vehicle traffic, especially after heavy rain. Proper base preparation and drainage are equally important to prevent frost heave and summer washouts.
A quick rule: one cubic yard of gravel is roughly 1.4 tons. Calculate cubic yards with Length x Width x Depth (in feet) / 27, then multiply by 1.4 to get tons. For example, a 20'x40' driveway at 3 inches deep is about 7.4 cubic yards or roughly 10.4 tons; add 5-10% for waste and compaction when ordering.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, which aligns with many local yards. Many suppliers and haulers in the Sherman area include delivery within a certain radius; otherwise you may see a modest delivery fee or surcharges for next-day service. The exact fee depends on your address, access conditions, and whether tailgate spreading is requested at checkout.
For slope stabilization in the Sherman area, larger angular aggregate like 1" to 3" crushed stone or riprap is commonly used to slow runoff and protect channels. Combine rock with erosion-control fabric, check dams or terraces, and native vegetation to reduce downstream sediment. For small residential slopes, 3/4" minus gravel in combination with contouring and drainage swales often provides a balance of stability and appearance.
Expect light maintenance every 1-3 years: regrading to remove ruts, topping up lost material, and spot weed control. Material top-up rates vary by use but many homeowners add 0.5 to 1.5 tons per 100 square feet every few years; material costs in Sherman usually drive annual maintenance to a few hundred dollars if you DIY. Hiring someone for regrading and compaction typically costs a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand depending on driveway size and condition.
Permit and HOA rules vary: some city zoning or subdivision covenants allow gravel driveways while others require paved surfaces or restrict visible gravel in front yards. Before ordering material, check Sherman city planning or your HOA covenants for setback, surfacing, and drainage rules. If in doubt, request documentation from your HOA or a quick call to the city utilities/planning department to avoid having to remove or modify the work later.
Gravel is the lowest upfront cost—often $1 to $3 per square foot installed DIY—while asphalt is midrange ($3 to $6 per square foot) and pavers are the most expensive ($8 to $15+ per square foot). With regular maintenance gravel can last 10-20 years for driveways, asphalt about 15-30 years, and well-installed pavers 25-50 years. Gravel is easiest and cheapest to repair but requires more frequent topping and regrading than asphalt or pavers.
For heavy vehicle traffic in Sherman, start with a stable subgrade, install geotextile fabric if soils are clayey, and place a compacted base of 6" to 8" of larger crushed stone. Add a 2" to 3" surface layer of 3/4" to 1" crushed stone that compacts into a firm driving surface. Good slope and drainage away from the driveway are critical to prevent washouts and potholes in our local climate.
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.
