Why Tenaha Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tenaha has a population of 2,620 and sits within a West Texas landscape that is growing modestly at a rate of 0.27% annually. The town’s climate and geography—recording 213/year sunny days and 48.52 inches of annual rainfall in a hardiness zone of 8a—create a mix of long sun exposure and periodic heavy rains that affect yards, driveways, and small-site construction. That combination drives demand for durable, well-graded aggregates: homeowners in Tenaha use gravel to improve drainage, stabilize driveways, control erosion, and create low-maintenance landscape beds. Reliable gravel helps manage runoff after storms, reduces maintenance under prolonged sun, and provides a stable surface for projects both small and large.Popular Projects in Tenaha This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tenaha gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tenaha.
Typical delivered prices in the Tenaha area vary by material and supplier. Expect roughly $15 to $40 per ton for common crushed stone or crushed concrete, $30 to $60 per ton for decorative pea gravel, and $40 to $70 per ton for larger river rock; final price depends on local supplier, distance, and truck size. Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers, and our checkout shows exact pricing and any delivery fees after you enter your zip code. Minimum order on our platform is 3 tons and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply).
For driveways in the Tenaha area, crushed limestone or crushed concrete are the most practical choices because they lock together well and compact into a stable surface. Pea gravel can be used as a top dressing for appearance but tends to migrate and may need frequent replenishing, while river rock and large round stones are not recommended for driveways because they roll and shift under traffic. Use a layered approach: a compacted crushed-stone base with a finer wearing surface gives the best long-term performance.
Local soils near Tenaha can include clay or silty pockets that hold water and weaken a gravel surface if not addressed. Good base preparation—removing soft topsoil, installing geotextile fabric, and adding a 4" to 6" compacted layer of angular crushed stone—helps prevent rutting and washouts. Also grade the driveway with a slight crown for drainage and install proper culverts or swales where water concentrates to extend lifespan.
Estimate based on area and depth: a single-car driveway (10' x 20') at a 3" compacted depth needs about 2.5 to 3.5 tons; a two-car driveway (20' x 20') at 3" needs about 5 to 6 tons (more if you build a thicker base). A 500 sq ft patio at a 2" finished depth typically requires about 4 to 5 tons. These are typical estimates—use Hello Gravel’s material calculator or contact our team to get a site-specific quantity and to meet our 3-ton minimum.
Supplier options and fees vary by zip code and season; Hello Gravel connects you with vetted local suppliers that serve Tenaha. Many local suppliers and haulers require a minimum around 3 to 5 tons and may include a delivery fee based on distance and truck routing, while Hello Gravel often shows free delivery in many areas depending on supplier terms. Enter your zip code on our site or call our team and we will provide specific supplier options, exact minimums, and delivery fees for your address.
Frequency depends on traffic and exposure: low-traffic residential drives often need a light topping or regrading every 2 to 4 years, while busy driveways, rural lanes, or areas hit by heavy rains may need attention every 1 to 2 years. Intense storms or seasonal runoff can create washouts that require immediate spot repairs. Regular grading, adding 1 to 2 tons as needed, and maintaining drainage will reduce how often larger deliveries are required.
Gravel has a lower upfront cost per square foot and is quicker to install, but it requires periodic topping, grading, and more hands-on maintenance. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs but offer a smoother surface and lower routine maintenance; however, repairs for cracks or full replacements are more expensive. For small properties in Tenaha or rural lots where initial budget and drainage flexibility matter, gravel is a cost-effective choice; for high-traffic driveways wanting low yearly upkeep, asphalt or concrete may be preferable.
Rules vary: many rural areas around Tenaha allow gravel driveways, but some municipalities, subdivisions, or HOAs may have restrictions on surface materials, visible stone color, or dust control. Before ordering, check with the City of Tenaha, Shelby County building or zoning office, and any HOA or deed restrictions for your property. If you need help confirming rules, contact Hello Gravel and we can suggest what to ask local authorities.
Common options that perform well in Tenaha include stone dust (screenings) blended into the top layer, polymer-stabilized binders that lock fines together, and chloride-based dust suppressants (applied according to local regulations). Geotextile fabric and compacted fine crushed stone as a surface layer also reduce movement and dust. Choose a product based on traffic, budget, and whether you want a temporary dust control or a longer-term stabilized surface; consult suppliers for local compatibility and application rates.
A standard, durable assembly includes: 1) remove organic topsoil, 2) install geotextile fabric where soils are weak, 3) install a 4" to 6" compacted base of #2 crushed stone or similar angular material, and 4) finish with a 1" to 2" layer of #57 stone or stone dust for a wearing surface. Compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller and slope the surface with a small crown (about 1/4" per foot) to shed water. Proper edge restraints and drainage features like culverts or ditches are also key to preventing washouts during heavy Texas rains.
