Gravel: Built For Stafford's Climate • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Stafford
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 Stafford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Stafford, West Texas, with a city population of 30,656 and located within a metro area of 2.5+ million, is experiencing steady residential and commercial activity as the region grows at a rate of 1.10% annually. The local climate — hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall — supports year‑round outdoor projects but also creates demands for materials that handle both strong sun exposure and episodic heavy rain. That combination of growth and climate drives steady construction and landscaping needs: new driveways, drainage upgrades, pathways, and low‑maintenance yards. Homeowners in Stafford look for aggregates that deliver reliable drainage, resist washout during storms, and stay stable over time, which is why gravel remains a popular, practical choice for many local projects.Popular Projects in Stafford This Season

Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Stafford.
Gravel prices in Stafford vary by type and availability, but expect materials plus delivery to run roughly $25 to $60 per ton locally. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; delivery fees and next-day service add to the final price. For an exact quote, check your zip code on our site or contact our team for regional pricing and availability.
A 20 ft by 10 ft driveway at a 4" depth requires about 3.5 tons of gravel, which is near our minimum 3-ton order. Material and delivery in Stafford typically put the total in a rough range of $150 to $500 depending on gravel type, depth, and delivery options. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator or get a quote to see an exact cost for your driveway.
Texas black gravel generally refers to dark crushed rock or black crushed limestone used for decorative beds and driveways. Availability in Stafford depends on regional suppliers; Hello Gravel sources locally, so color and texture may vary. You can note color preferences at checkout and we will try to match local stock, but exact color matches can’t be guaranteed.
Very fine gravel is often called 'pea gravel' or 'screenings' (fine crushed stone). Pea gravel is good for patios, playgrounds, and paths because it compacts into a smooth surface, while screenings are used as a leveling or bedding layer. In Stafford's climate, pea gravel drains well but may shift, so pair it with edging or a base layer for stability.
G1 (also called #1) is generally larger than 3/4" gravel; G1 typically includes rock roughly 1" to 3" in size, while 3/4" is a more uniform, smaller stone. Choose G1 for heavy drainage and base layers and 3/4" for driveways, pathways, and compacted base. Local suppliers in Stafford may use slightly different naming, so confirm the actual size when ordering.
A well-compacted angular crushed stone (like 3/4" crushed rock) over landscape fabric is one of the most effective gravel choices to discourage weed growth. Pea gravel tends to let soil and seeds settle into gaps, while larger, angular material forms a denser top layer that is harder for weeds to penetrate. Regular edging and a good underlayment help maintain weed control in Stafford's warm, humid environment.
For drainage, 3/4" crushed stone or #57 gravel are common choices because they create stable voids that let water flow. Use larger, angular stone for French drains or base layers, and combine with perforated pipe and geotextile fabric to keep fines out. In Stafford's local soils, adding a proper sub-base often prevents saturation and helps surface runoff move away from foundations.
Gravel can reduce pest habitat by removing dense mulch and standing water where insects like mosquitoes breed, but it does not eliminate bugs entirely. Some pests may still live under edging or in moist soil near foundations, so combine gravel with proper grading, drainage, and pest control measures. In Stafford's warm climate, maintaining a dry perimeter and clearing debris helps limit pests.
Gravel alone will not harden like concrete, but stabilized products exist that bind aggregate together—examples include polymer-modified gravels, resin-bound mixes, or mixing a cement binder with aggregate. These options create a firmer surface suitable for driveways while retaining a gravel look, but they are more costly and may require specialty installers in the Stafford area. Ask our sales team if local suppliers offer stabilized or resin-bound options.
Standard delivery to Stafford is typically 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Drivers may provide tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but spreading is not guaranteed and depends on jobsite access and safety. Hello Gravel coordinates local suppliers and haulers to provide transparent scheduling and delivery updates.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible once you know you need a change; modifications are easier before an order is processed or dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate changes based on supplier and hauler schedules, but some changes may not be possible after dispatch. For Stafford deliveries, tell us about access issues, color preferences, or spreading requests when you call or message our team.
Stafford's municipal rules or property tax situation generally do not directly change gravel material prices, but permitting, local hauling restrictions, or special pickup/drop-off rules can affect delivery logistics and costs. Any required permits or city-specific truck access limitations could add time or fees to a project in Stafford. If you have questions about local requirements, contact our team and we will coordinate with suppliers and haulers who know the Stafford area.
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.
