Gravel: Built For Semi-Arid Drainage • Fast Local Gravel Delivery Options
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 Tahoka Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tahoka is a small West Texas city with a population of 2,760, experiencing steady growth at about 0.71% annually. The local climate—with 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a hardiness zone of 8b—creates a mix of dry, sun-baked spells and occasional heavy rains that shape landscaping and construction needs. Homeowners and contractors here often balance water management, dust control, and heat-resistant surfaces when planning projects. That makes durable, well-graded gravel a common request: it stabilizes driveways, improves drainage, reduces erosion on sloped lots, and provides a low-maintenance groundcover suited to Tahoka's West Texas conditions. Gravel choices for Tahoka should account for the region's semi-arid soils and intense sun. A crushed, angular gravel with a good mix of fines helps lock surfaces in place during dry spells while still allowing water to percolate during the 34.25 inches of rain the area gets each year. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who stock regionally sourced gravel, offers clear pricing and delivery scheduling, and helps you choose the right gradation and quantity so your driveway, French drain, or xeriscape performs well in Tahoka's climate.Popular Projects in Tahoka This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tahoka gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tahoka.
Delivered gravel prices in Tahoka typically vary by material and quantity; expect a rough range of $30-$60 per ton for common materials like crushed limestone or crusher run. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and generally offers standard delivery in 2+ business days using local haulers; smaller rural deliveries may have an additional fee or fuel surcharge. Final price depends on material type, local supplier rates, and requested delivery service (next-day delivery before noon CST has an extra fee).
Most common local types are crushed limestone (good all-around base and driveway material), crusher run (mixed fines for strong base), pea gravel (decorative patios and walkways), and crushed rock (drainage and landscape accents). Crushed limestone and crusher run are preferred for driveways and high-traffic areas, pea gravel works well for patios and play areas, and coarser crushed rock is used for drainage trenches and erosion control. Regional suppliers may offer recycled crushed concrete as a budget-friendly base material.
Tahoka's hot, dry climate and occasional heavy storms mean gravel can loosen and produce dust during drought, then wash or rut after intense rains. Clay subsoils common in the area hold water and can cause poor drainage and heaving, so a well-prepared base and proper slope are important to avoid erosion. Using a geotextile fabric, adequate crown/slope, and heavier base materials (crusher run) improves long-term performance in local conditions.
A practical rule of thumb: tons = (area in sq ft) x (depth in inches) / 231. For example, a typical 1-car driveway (12 ft x 20 ft = 240 sq ft) at 3" depth needs about 3.1 tons (240 x 3 / 231). A 2-car driveway (20 ft x 20 ft = 400 sq ft) at 3" depth needs about 5.2 tons, and at 4" depth about 6.9 tons. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so many small 1-car projects will hit that minimum.
Professional installation costs vary with scope, but for Tahoka expect roughly $1,500-$4,000 for an average 2-car driveway when including grading, geotextile fabric, compacted base (crusher run), and top gravel. Small 1-car driveways can often be installed for under $1,000 if minimal prep is needed, but costs rise if heavy grading, drainage work, or hauling long distances are required. Get local quotes—Hello Gravel can connect you with suppliers and haulers to estimate material and delivery costs before hiring installers.
City and county rules or HOA covenants can restrict driveway surfacing, color, dust control, and drainage; some HOAs prefer a finished appearance or specific materials. Tahoka homeowners should check the City of Tahoka code, Lynn County rules, and any HOA or neighborhood covenant before ordering materials. If in doubt, request permit or HOA guidance and keep documentation of approved materials to avoid rework.
In West Texas a gravel driveway usually needs routine maintenance such as grading once a year and spot replenishment every 1-3 years depending on traffic and storms. Typical replenishment is 1-3 tons for patching small ruts, costing roughly $30-$60 per ton delivered in the Tahoka area; professional grading can run a few hundred dollars depending on travel and scope. Weed control and adding fines to reduce dust are common seasonal tasks and can be handled DIY or via local landscaping contractors.
Recycled materials like crushed concrete are commonly available in West Texas and are often cheaper than virgin stone for base layers. They work well for sub-bases and driveways but tend to contain more fines and irregular pieces, so they may be less attractive as a finished surface and can retain salt or alkali depending on source. For a budget-friendly base, recycled gravel is viable; for a finished look or better drainage, choose an appropriate topcoat material like crushed limestone or pea gravel.
Upfront cost: gravel is the least expensive up front, asphalt is midrange, and concrete is highest. Maintenance: gravel needs more frequent upkeep (grading and topping) but repairs are inexpensive, asphalt needs periodic sealcoating and eventual resurfacing, and concrete requires minimal routine maintenance but repairs are costly. Lifespan and suitability: gravel works well in rural Tahoka for low- to moderate-traffic driveways, asphalt offers a smoother surface for higher traffic, and concrete is durable for long-term use but has higher initial cost and can crack if base drainage is poor; local soil and drainage conditions should guide your choice.
Hello Gravel connects customers with local suppliers and contracted haulers serving the Tahoka area, and can provide delivered material with scheduled drop-off using dump trucks. For equipment rentals (plate compactors, small skid steers, spreaders), homeowners typically look to rental shops in larger nearby towns such as Lubbock or regional rental chains; availability and rates vary so call ahead. If you need help estimating equipment or labor needs, contact our team or ask suppliers for local contractor recommendations.
