Why Todd Mission Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Todd Mission is a growing community of 12,502 residents within the McAllen area, part of a metro region of 2.3+ million people and experiencing a steady 2.27% annual growth rate. That growth, combined with local development and remodeling, creates steady demand for aggregates for driveways, drainage, and landscaping. The area's semi-tropical setting (Hardiness Zone 8a) delivers 219 sunny days per year and 45.90 inches of annual rainfall, so homeowners need gravel that handles both strong sun and episodic heavy rain. Practical performance—drainage, compaction, and color stability—matters here. Many homeowners prefer materials that are easy to order and estimate for DIY projects, while contractors need dependable bulk deliveries. Hello Gravel bridges that gap by connecting Todd Mission customers to local suppliers and professional dump-truck haulers, making it simple to get the right gravel for each project without multiple quarry runs.Popular Projects in Todd Mission This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Todd Mission gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Todd Mission.
Costs vary by material, distance, and whether you hire spreading and grading. Expect delivered material-only prices roughly $100 to $800 for small residential orders (3 to 20 tons), and total installed costs for a single-car driveway commonly range from about $500 to $3,000 depending on depth, contractor labor, and site access. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and offers scheduled delivery; request a quote for a precise price in the Todd Mission or McAllen area.
Angular crushed stone (like 3/4" crushed limestone or crushed granite) and #57 crushed stone are good choices because their sharp edges lock together and resist rutting on clay. For top layers, a mix with some fines (3/8" to crushed) helps bind the surface, while larger angular base material improves drainage and load distribution. Regional sourcing means stone color and texture vary, so request samples or photos when ordering for Todd Mission.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers that serve your zip code, so we can match you with vendors that deliver to Todd Mission or the McAllen metro. Enter your address on our site or call the team and we will provide local availability, pricing, and delivery options for the gravel you need.
Use this simple formula: cubic yards = (square feet x depth in inches) / 324, then convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by 1.4 to 1.6 (typical gravel density). Example: a 12'x30' area (360 sq ft) at 3" depth needs about (360x3)/324 = 3.33 cubic yards, or roughly 4.7 to 5.3 tons. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so round up when ordering and allow extra for spreading and compaction.
Permit and HOA rules vary by county, city, and homeowners association. Many rural properties around Todd Mission do not require a permit for a basic gravel driveway, but some municipalities and HOAs in the McAllen area may have standards for surface material, drainage, and setbacks. Check with your local county permitting office and your HOA before ordering; Hello Gravel can help confirm delivery logistics, but not local permitting requirements.
For driveways on clay, use a layered approach: a compacted base of larger angular rock (1" to 1.5" or road base) topped with 3/4" crushed stone or #57 for driving surfaces, and a 3/8" crushed or fine topcoat to bind the surface. Patios and walkways do well with decomposed granite or pea gravel with stabilizer for a smoother finish. For drainage, use washed river rock or larger 1"–2" stone in swales and French drains to move water away from clay soils.
Regular tasks include grading low spots after heavy rains, adding 1 to 2 inches of fresh gravel every 2 to 5 years, pulling weeds, and repairing any washouts promptly. Keep drainage clear by maintaining swales and culverts so water does not concentrate on the driveway, and consider a compacting pass with a roller after adding material. These simple steps reduce rutting and reduce how often you need a full reload.
Gravel is the lowest-cost upfront option and is flexible on uneven ground, typically costing much less per square foot than asphalt or concrete, but it requires periodic maintenance and replenishment. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs and longer lifespans with less frequent maintenance, but they need proper base preparation and drainage, which can be costly on clay soils. For many Todd Mission properties, gravel is a practical, lower-cost solution when drainage and maintenance plans are in place.
Yes, geotextile fabric can improve longevity by separating the gravel from the underlying clay, slowing contamination and reducing mixing that causes soft spots. For best results use fabric with a compacted granular base (2 to 4 inches of road base) and then top with your finished gravel layer. Fabric helps but is not a cure-all; proper grading, base thickness, and drainage are also essential.
Heavy rain can wash away loose gravel and create ruts, especially where runoff concentrates. Use positive grading, side swales, culverts, and rock-lined channels to divert runoff, add edging to contain surface material, and consider larger angular rock in vulnerable areas to slow water. Planning drainage for high-intensity events common in the McAllen and South Texas region reduces washouts and keeps gravel in place.
