Why Shiner Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Shiner's city population is 4,300 and it sits inside a growing West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, local demand for residential improvements, driveways, and drainage upgrades is on the rise. Shiner's climate—hardiness zone 8b, 228 sunny days per year, and annual rainfall of 34.25 inches—means homeowners need materials that stand up to long sun exposure and occasional heavy rains. Gravel is a practical choice for many local projects because it promotes quick drainage, reduces erosion on semi-arid soils, and requires less upkeep than turf or mulch. Because regional geology affects color and particle angularity, choosing the right aggregate size and source reduces rework and keeps finished areas stable and attractive.Popular Projects in Shiner This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Shiner gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Shiner.
Prices vary by gravel type, supplier, and delivery distance, but delivered gravel to Shiner typically ranges roughly from $40 to $80 per ton. Final price depends on material (pea gravel, crushed limestone, etc.), the minimum 3-ton order requirement, and whether you choose standard or next-day delivery. For an exact delivered price, enter your zip code on our site or request a quote.
A 100 ft long by 12 ft wide driveway at 3 inches deep is about 11.1 cubic yards, which is roughly 15 to 16 tons of typical crushed gravel. We recommend ordering 10% extra for compaction and waste, so plan on about 17 to 18 tons. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and local material density can change the final tonnage slightly.
Assuming a 20 ft long by 10 ft wide single-car driveway at a 3-inch depth, you need about 1.9 cubic yards, or roughly 2.5 to 3 tons of gravel. Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and to allow for compaction, ordering 3 to 3.5 tons is practical. If your driveway is wider or you want a thicker base, increase the quantity accordingly.
#3 gravel is a mix of stone pieces usually ranging from pea-size up to about 2 to 3 inches, with angular edges that help lock together when compacted. It is commonly used for driveways, drainage fields, and base layers because it drains well and compacts into a stable surface, which works well for many West Texas soils. Local variations exist, so ask for a photo or sample when you order to match your aesthetic and performance needs.
In most parts of West Texas, you should not simply lay gravel on bare soil; adding a compacted base (crushed stone) and a geotextile fabric greatly improves drainage, reduces mixing with underlying clay, and prevents rutting. Fabric helps separate the subgrade from aggregate, while a compacted base creates a stable platform in Shiner's variable soils and occasional heavy rains. For heavy-traffic driveways, plan on a layered build-up rather than a single loose gravel layer.
Cheapest depends on your circumstances: if you have a truck and can haul material yourself, bulk pickup from a local supplier can save money, but remember local suppliers may have minimums and you must factor in trips and labor. For most homeowners in and around Shiner, dump truck delivery arranged through Hello Gravel balances cost and convenience, especially for orders of 3 tons or more. Always compare per-ton quotes that include delivery and account for haul distance, material type, and any spreading or disposal fees.
A tri-axle dump truck typically carries about 10 to 13 tons of gravel, so a delivered load cost will be roughly the per-ton price multiplied by the truckload size plus any delivery fee. Because material type and travel distance affect price, expect a range rather than a fixed number; the most reliable way to know is to request a truckload quote for your Shiner address. Keep in mind Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons if you only need a partial truckload.
For West Texas, crushed limestone or 3/4" crushed stone are popular for driveways because they compact well and handle heat and occasional rain. Pea gravel and river rock are good for yards and decorative beds where aesthetics and drainage matter, while decomposed granite and crushed limestone fines make tidy walking paths. Choose material based on use: crushed stone for a durable driveway base, pea gravel for look and drainage, and fines or DG for smooth footpaths.
Permit and HOA rules vary; some properties in Shiner will require a driveway permit if tying into a public street, and HOAs can have rules about driveway material or appearance. Before ordering, check with the City of Shiner building department and any local HOA covenants to confirm requirements. If in doubt, contact Hello Gravel and we can help you think through permit and HOA questions before delivery.
Hello Gravel coordinates delivery to your Shiner address and can request tailgate spreading by drivers, but spreading is performed at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed; compaction is not generally provided through our standard delivery. An estimate from Hello Gravel will include material type and quantity, delivery timing and fee, and notes about optional services; for spreading and compaction we can refer you to local contractors or advise on renting compacting equipment. Request a quote and include project details so we can provide a realistic estimate.
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.
