Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

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.

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 Somerville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Somerville, with a population of 4,690 and sitting inside a metro area of 2.5+ million, is seeing steady development at a 0.70% annual growth rate. The West Texas climate—228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates a mix of intense sun and episodic heavy rain that shapes outdoor projects. That combination drives steady demand for reliable aggregates: homeowners need materials for driveways, drainage swales, walkways, and erosion control that stand up to UV, shed water during storms, and work with local soils. Clear quantity guidance, upfront pricing, and scheduled delivery make ordering multiple tons easier for residential jobs where access and staging can be tight.Popular Projects in Somerville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Somerville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Somerville.
Prices vary by material type and local supply, but in West Texas you can generally expect roughly $30 to $80 per cubic yard depending on gravel type and color. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an added fee. For an exact delivered price to Somerville, enter your zip code or request a quote so we can factor local supplier rates and any rural delivery fees.
For Somerville driveways, crushed rock or crushed limestone (3/4" minus or 3/4" clean) is usually best because it compacts and locks together for vehicle traffic; pea gravel and river rock look nice but tend to shift under cars. To estimate quantity, a one-car driveway about 12 ft by 50 ft at 3" depth needs roughly 6 cubic yards (about 8.4 tons using a 1.4 tons/yd3 estimate). Use Hello Gravel’s calculator or send your driveway dimensions for a precise delivered quote.
One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, so it covers about 324 sq ft at 1" depth, 162 sq ft at 2" depth, and 108 sq ft at 3" depth. Actual coverage can shift slightly based on stone size and how tightly it is compacted, so round up when ordering for Somerville projects to allow for settling and waste.
A 50 lb bag contains about 0.018 cubic yards and covers roughly 5.8 sq ft at 1" depth, so you need about 55 bags per cubic yard. Bulk delivery (dump truck) is usually far cheaper per cubic yard than bagged product and is better for large jobs; bagged gravel is more expensive per cubic yard but convenient for small, tight-access jobs. Tri-axle dump trucks commonly carry around 10–15 cubic yards, but get a Hello Gravel quote to confirm truck sizes and delivered cost to your Somerville address.
Hello Gravel works with local West Texas suppliers and can match you with nearby sources for Texas black gravel when available; availability depends on local quarry stocks. Most suppliers in our network will deliver to rural Somerville addresses, but extra fees, road restrictions, or minimum distance charges may apply, so check your zip code and mention rural access when requesting a quote.
For large areas, bulk delivery is usually the most cost-effective option because the per-yard price is lower and labor is minimized. Picking up directly from a nearby quarry can be cheaper if you have a heavy-duty truck and trailer and the quarry is close, but hauling costs and your equipment limits matter. Palletized bags are the most expensive per cubic yard and best only for very small projects or locations where trucks cannot dump.
A 50 lb bag covers about 5.8 sq ft at 1" depth, about 2.9 sq ft at 2" depth, and about 1.9 sq ft at 3" depth. Bags can be cost-effective for very small patches or where you need a neat, controlled delivery, but for anything over about one cubic yard (roughly 55 bags) bulk delivery will almost always be cheaper and faster in Somerville.
River rock is larger, rounded, and often used for dry creek beds or decorative borders; it is heavier and stays put but can make walking or driving difficult. Pea gravel is small and rounded, good for patios and drainage areas, comfortable underfoot but it can migrate and is less stable for driveways; crushed rock or limestone is more stable for driveways. Pricing varies by size and color and by local supply in West Texas; decorative stones like Texas black may cost more than common crushed stone.
Example: a 12 ft by 50 ft one-car driveway at 3" depth needs roughly 6 cubic yards, which is about 8.4 tons using a 1.4 tons/yd3 estimate. To get a delivered quote, enter your zip code and driveway dimensions on Hello Gravel or contact our team with delivery address and any access notes; we’ll match you with a local supplier and provide final pricing, delivery windows, and any rural access fees.
Some drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading and drivers will assess safety and access on arrival. For full spreading, grading, or compaction you should hire a local contractor; those services are commonly available but usually billed separately and often vary by job size and site conditions. When checking out, request spreading in Order Notes and ask our team to connect you with local contractors if you want a bundled quote.
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.
Absolutely! Try our aggregate quiz here: https://hellogravel.com/aggregate-quiz/ Alternatively,you can call us, chat with us (box in the bottom right corner of the website), or email us!
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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
