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 Texas City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Texas City, West Texas, Texas, has a population of 41,497 and sits inside a broader metro area of 7.1+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.30% annually, homeowners and local builders are steadily updating yards, driveways, and infrastructure. The climate—hardiness zone 9b with 230 sunny days per year and 48.00 inches of annual rainfall—creates dual demands: materials must stand up to intense sun and handle heavy seasonal runoff. That combination drives strong local demand for reliable aggregates that balance permeability, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Homeowners in Texas City look for gravel that reduces erosion, improves drainage, and provides a low-maintenance surface for driveways, patios, and pathways while matching the region’s natural colors and textures. Gravel performs well in Texas City’s climate when selected and installed correctly. Well-graded gravel offers fast drainage during heavy rains and resists washout under frequent sun exposure, making it a smart choice for French drains, driveways, and xeriscaped beds. Hello Gravel connects homeowners with local suppliers and professional haulers to deliver regionally sourced gravel that reflects local geology and weather demands. Our online ordering, transparent pricing, and scheduled delivery (standard in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST) simplify getting the right material to your property without the usual coordination headache.Popular Projects in Texas City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Texas City gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Texas City.
Prices vary by supplier and delivery, but typical local ranges are: crushed limestone $25-$50 per ton (about $35-$70 per yard), pea gravel $35-$60 per ton (about $50-$85 per yard), decomposed granite $30-$65 per ton (about $42-$90 per yard), and 57 stone $25-$50 per ton (about $35-$70 per yard). Delivery fees, minimum orders, and regional sourcing in the Texas City area can move prices up or down, so use Hello Gravel’s quote tool to see exact costs for your zip code. All figures are approximate and include only material costs; spreading or contractor labor is extra.
Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and haulers that service Texas City; available suppliers and exact delivery fees are shown at checkout when you enter your zip code. Our platform’s standard minimum is 3 tons, standard delivery is 2+ business days with free delivery in many areas, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. If you have tight access, long driveways, or need special placement, note that in Order Notes so the dispatcher and driver can plan for any additional charges.
For Texas City’s coastal, often humid climate with heavy rain events, angular crushed stone (such as 57 stone or crushed limestone) works best because it locks together and sheds water while resisting rutting. Use a compacted base layer of larger stone for structure and a 1"-3/4" crushed top layer for a smooth driving surface; rounded pea gravel looks nice but shifts and creates dust more easily. For better dust control and stability, choose crushed material with some fines and plan for proper drainage and edging.
Use these typical estimates (convertibility uses about 1.4 tons per cubic yard): 12x50 driveway (600 sq ft) at 3" depth needs ~5.6 yd3 or about 8 tons; at 4" depth expect ~7.4 yd3 or ~10.5 tons. A 20x10 parking pad (200 sq ft) at 4" depth needs ~2.5 yd3 or ~3.5 tons. A 3x30 path (90 sq ft) at 2" depth needs ~0.56 yd3 or ~0.8 tons; note Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, so small projects may require a larger delivery or consolidation with another order.
Permit rules vary: some cities and counties require permits for new driveways, curb cuts, or changes that affect drainage, and many HOAs have design or material rules that cover driveways. Before ordering, check Texas City municipal codes or call the city permits office and review your HOA covenants if applicable. If you’re unsure, contact Hello Gravel or your local building department for guidance before you buy.
Contractors typically remove topsoil and vegetation, install a geotextile fabric to separate soft soils from the rock, and lay a compacted base of 4"-6" of larger crushed stone before topping with 2"-3" of finish gravel. Compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller and crown the surface slightly to shed water away from structures. In coastal Texas City soils, good drainage and a stable base are more important than a thick top dressing, so prioritize subgrade prep and edge restraints.
Frequency depends on traffic, drainage, and storms: many homeowners regrade or add material every 1-3 years, while heavily used driveways or sites hit by tropical storms may need attention yearly or after major rain events. Typical maintenance might mean adding 1-3 tons per year for a small driveway; delivered material costs vary but expect $30-$65 per ton for common gravels in the area, with spreading/contractor costs extra. For worst-case storm damage, expect higher labor and hauling costs; consider better base prep up front to reduce long-term maintenance.
For erosion control on slopes and concentrated flow areas near Texas City, use larger angular rock or riprap (1" to 6" depending on flow intensity) or 1"-2" crushed stone for swales to slow and disperse water. For lower-speed sheet flow, smaller crushed stone with a stabilized base and vegetated check dams works well. Always size the rock to the expected flow and pair it with grade control, turf or native plantings, and energy dissipators at outlets to minimize washout.
Delivery uses tri-axle dump trucks in most cases, so street access, driveway width, overhead wires, and soft or narrow driveways can limit where the truck can tip. If the truck can’t reach the desired spot, drivers may tip at the street and additional hand-spreading or smaller equipment will be needed, which adds time and cost. Tell us about access in the Order Notes and provide photos when asked so Hello Gravel and the hauler can quote accurate delivery and placement options.
Local contractor rates vary, but for small residential jobs expect labor and equipment to add roughly $300-$1,200 depending on job size and complexity, or roughly $8-$25 per ton added to material cost for hauling and spreading. Equipment rental (skid steer, plate compactor) and operator time can drive costs higher if the truck cannot tip at the driveway and material must be moved by hand or with smaller machinery. Get written estimates from a few local contractors and factor those costs into your Hello Gravel quote so you can compare all-in prices.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
