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.
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 Tiki Island Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Tiki Island has a city population of 993,588 and sits within a metro area population of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain each year in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners face both prolonged sun exposure and episodic storms that shape landscaping and construction choices. That steady regional expansion supports steady demand for durable, low-maintenance materials—driveways, drainage beds, pathways, and xeriscape yards—where aggregates like gravel are often the preferred solution for affordability, permeability, and longevity. Homeowners look for clear specs and reliable delivery when projects depend on timely materials that control erosion, promote drainage after heavy rains, reduce maintenance under intense sun, and form stable base layers for pavers and outbuildings.Popular Projects in Tiki Island This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tiki Island gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tiki Island.
Costs vary by material, truck size, and delivery distance, but expect a typical tri-axle load (about 10–12 cubic yards) delivered to Tiki Island to be roughly $400–$1,000. Lighter, common gravels are at the lower end; specialty colored or decorative gravels are at the higher end. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and uses local suppliers, so get an exact quote for your zip code through our site or by contacting our team.
"Texas black gravel" generally refers to dark-colored landscaping or driveway stone such as black basalt, slag, or crushed dark limestone commonly sold in Texas. It is used for driveways, walkways, garden beds, and drainage features, and it will absorb heat in summer and may show dust or fading over time. Because materials are regionally sourced, the exact shade and texture can vary around Tiki Island, so request photos or samples if color is critical.
Cost depends on width, depth, and material. For a one-car driveway 20 ft long by 10 ft wide at about 3 inches compacted, you need roughly 1.8 cubic yards (about 2.5 tons) of gravel — material-only cost is often $100–$400, but Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum may apply. Adding proper base preparation, labor, compaction, and thicker depths (4–6 inches recommended for regular vehicle traffic) can bring total installed costs to several hundred to over $1,000.
Generally no. Two inches is only a thin surface layer and will quickly move and rut under vehicle traffic. For a stable driveway in Tiki Island’s conditions, aim for 3–6 inches compacted: 3 inches for light, occasional use and 4–6 inches (with a compacted base) for regular vehicle traffic and better drainage.
No gravel truly becomes concrete, but mixes with fines (small particles) such as crusher run, road base (G1-type mixes), or crushed recycled concrete will compact tightly and lock together better than clean, round gravel. These materials form a firm, stable surface when well compacted, but they will still not match poured concrete for structural strength; consider concrete or a stabilized base product if you need a fully rigid surface.
3/4" gravel refers to individual stone pieces roughly three-quarters of an inch across, while G1 is a graded aggregate mix that contains a range of sizes from fines up to larger pieces. In practice, G1 can include material larger than 3/4" as well as fines for compaction, so G1 is a broad mix rather than a single size; check the supplier spec to confirm exact size ranges for your Tiki Island order.
One cubic yard of typical gravel weighs about 2,700 to 2,900 pounds (roughly 1.35 to 1.45 short tons), depending on rock type and moisture. Lighter materials like pumice weigh less, and dense materials like basalt or crushed concrete can be heavier, so use supplier weights for precise calculations.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide on compacted depth, then convert to cubic yards using a volume calculator (or ask Hello Gravel for help). Remember Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum and regional sourcing: add notes about preferred color and desired delivery location, choose a delivery date at checkout, and contact our team if you need help with spread options or exact quantities.
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.

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!
