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 Von Ormy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Von Ormy has a city population of 10,320 and sits within a growing West Texas region with a metro area population of 2.5+ million. The city is growing at a rate of 0.80% annually and experiences a semi-arid climate with 228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and a plant hardiness zone of 8b. Those local conditions are driving steady demand for residential and small-scale commercial building projects, from driveways and drainage upgrades to low-maintenance landscaping. Homeowners in Von Ormy seek quality aggregates that handle heat, occasional heavy rains, and local soil types—materials that provide reliable drainage, resist rutting, and reduce future maintenance in a sunny, semi-arid environment. Gravel is a practical choice for many Von Ormy projects because it promotes quick drainage, stabilizes surfaces, and tolerates the area’s cycles of sun and rain without deteriorating like organic mulches. Locally sourced gravel reflects regional geology, offering textures and colors that blend with West Texas landscapes while performing well in hardiness zone 8b soils. Hello Gravel simplifies sourcing by connecting you to nearby suppliers and professional haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery, and local expertise so homeowners get the right gravel for driveways, drainage swales, walkways, and landscape accents.Popular Projects in Von Ormy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Von Ormy gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Von Ormy.
Costs vary by material, order size, and exact delivery distance, but expect to pay roughly $20 to $50 per ton for common gravels plus any delivery fee. For a typical 2-car, 20x20 driveway (about 7 to 10 tons) that works out to roughly $150 to $500 for material, and delivery can add $0 to $200 depending on local supplier and whether free delivery applies. Use Hello Gravel to get an exact quote for your zip code and see upfront pricing.
In West Texas, crushed limestone, decomposed granite, river rock, and crushed granite are common. Crushed limestone is popular for driveways and bases because it compacts well; decomposed granite is used for walking paths and patios; river rock is decorative and for drainage; crushed granite and road base are used where harder, more durable surfaces are needed. Regional geology means exact color and texture will vary by supplier.
For a 20x20 driveway (400 sq ft), you will generally need about 7 tons at a 4-inch depth and about 10 to 11 tons at a 6-inch depth, using a common conversion of roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard. Choose 4 inches for a top dressing or lower-traffic use and 5 to 6 inches with a compacted base for a longer-lasting driveway. Hello Gravel's material calculator can give a precise recommendation based on your chosen depth and gravel type.
Hello Gravel partners with regional suppliers around Von Ormy and can show available local options when you enter your zip code. Typical lead times are our standard 2+ business days after ordering, while next-day delivery is sometimes available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee may apply). Exact supplier availability and lead time depend on your address and the material chosen.
Both can work, but crushed limestone is widely used in South and West Texas because it compacts well and forms a stable surface that resists dust when properly installed. Crushed granite offers excellent drainage and a more decorative look but can shift more under heavy loads without a good base. Choose crushed limestone for driveways and heavier traffic areas, and consider decomposed granite or crushed granite for paths and decorative uses; always account for local sourcing differences.
Requirements vary: Von Ormy is a small city and rules can differ by neighborhood, and many nearby properties may be subject to county or HOA restrictions. Before you start, check with Von Ormy City Hall or your homeowner association for zoning, setback, and surface requirements. If in doubt, Hello Gravel recommends contacting the city or HOA for written guidance before ordering.
Gravel driveways typically need periodic maintenance: regrading and raking after heavy rains, adding a top-up layer every 1 to 4 years depending on traffic, and spot-filling washed areas. Annual maintenance costs are modest for homeowners, often under a few hundred dollars a year for materials and occasional machine work; major regrades or full resurfacing cost more. Good base preparation and proper drainage reduce long-term upkeep.
Gravel is the most budget-friendly option, with installed costs often in the range of $1 to $3 per square foot, while asphalt typically runs $3 to $7 per square foot and concrete $6 to $12 per square foot. For a 400 sq ft driveway, that roughly translates to $400 to $1,200 for gravel, $1,200 to $2,800 for asphalt, and $2,400 to $4,800 for concrete. These are ballpark ranges; get local quotes for precise comparisons that factor in site prep, drainage, and local labor rates.
For a durable, low-maintenance driveway in Von Ormy, aim for a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of crushed stone (road base) with a 2 to 3-inch wearing layer of smaller gravel or crushed limestone on top. Good compaction, a slight crown for runoff, and perimeter edging help keep gravel in place and reduce washouts. If heavy vehicles will use the drive, increase base thickness and consider geotextile fabric to prevent mixing with subsoil.
Yes. Avoid major installs during heavy rains because runoff can wash freshly spread gravel; late spring and fall are often ideal in Von Ormy's hot, dry climate. Slightly damp material compacts better, so scheduling around dry spells or light moisture can improve compaction results, while extreme summer heat can make crews less available and may affect handling. Plan deliveries at least 2+ business days out and consider ordering next-day delivery if timing is tight.
Provide clear delivery instructions including the best drop location, any gate codes, obstacles, overhead wires, and whether you want tailgate spreading requested (drivers will decide if it is safe to do so). Add project notes about desired depth and gravel type, and confirm your preferred delivery date; use the material calculator or contact our team for help. Our platform shows supplier options and pricing for your zip code so you can compare materials and lead times before you commit.

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.
