Gravel: Durable For Semi-Arid Landscaping • Fast Tailgate Gravel Delivery Options
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 Waskom Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Waskom, West Texas, Texas, has a population of 4,350 and sits within a larger West Texas metro area of 2.5+ million people. With a growth rate of 0.40% annually and a semi-arid climate that records 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rain annually, local homeowners face steady, practical demand for durable landscaping and site materials. Gravel is commonly chosen here because it stands up to intense sun, helps manage periodic rainfall runoff, and fits the region’s soils and hardiness zone (8b). As properties evolve—whether replacing turf with drought-resistant beds, repairing driveways, or improving drainage—Waskom residents look for consistent aggregates that minimize maintenance and perform reliably over time. Gravel works well in Waskom’s environment by promoting fast drainage, reducing erosion on slopes, and resisting heat-related breakdown that can plague softer materials. For walkways, driveways, French drains, and dry creek beds, locally sourced gravel reflects the area’s geology and is a practical, long-lasting choice. Hello Gravel simplifies getting that material: our platform connects you to trusted local suppliers and haulers, lets you schedule delivery on your timeline, and provides clear pricing and expert guidance so you get the right gravel for your Waskom project without the guesswork.Popular Projects in Waskom This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Waskom gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Waskom.
Typical delivered gravel prices within about 30 miles of Waskom range roughly $25 to $60 per ton depending on material type (crusher-run, #57, crushed limestone, or decorative rock), truck access, and quantity ordered. Delivery fees, minimums, and the exact price depend on the supplier and haul distance; Hello Gravel can provide an instant quote for your zip code. Expect higher prices for colored or specialty gravels and lower prices for common local crushed stone.
For Waskom's semi-arid conditions, crushed limestone or crushed granite are commonly recommended for driveways because they compact well and resist movement. A typical build uses crusher-run or 3/4" crushed stone for the base and #57 or 3/4" angular stone as a top layer for drainage and traction. Local materials vary, so ask for a sample or photo when ordering since color and grading reflect regional geology.
Use these estimates (based on 1.4 tons per cubic yard): 12x40 (480 sq ft) needs about 6.2 tons at 3", 8.3 tons at 4", and 12.4 tons at 6". A 20x40 (800 sq ft) needs about 10.4 tons at 3", 13.8 tons at 4", and 20.7 tons at 6". Order about 5-10% extra for compaction and grading, and note Hello Gravel minimum orders start at 3 tons.
Suppliers that serve Waskom are typically located in the broader East Texas and Shreveport areas; exact vendors vary by zip code. Typical minimums for delivery are often 3 tons (matching Hello Gravel minimum), with standard lead times of 2+ business days and a next-day option if ordered before noon CST for an extra fee. For specific supplier names, pricing, and availability, check your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team for a local quote.
Design a gentle crown (high center) and provide side ditches or swales so runoff moves away from the driveway; avoid letting water run down the length of the drive. Use a compacted base of crusher-run or larger stone, install edge restraints, and top with angular stone (#57) to help lock material together. In areas prone to flash flows, place larger rock or riprap at drainage outlets and consider vegetation or berms to slow water.
Waskom soils can include clay and sandy loam that soften with rain and lead to settling or washouts after heavy storms. A geotextile fabric or separation layer is recommended over soft or silty soils to reduce mixing, improve load distribution, and slow settlement, especially for driveways and farm roads. Proper subgrade preparation and a compacted stone base are equally important to minimize future settling.
Expect light maintenance like grading and filling potholes every 1-2 years and adding a fresh topcoat (1-2 inches) every 2-5 years depending on traffic and storm exposure. Material costs vary by type and distance but plan roughly $25-$60 per ton plus delivery; a small resurfacing job (10-20 tons) can run several hundred to about $1,200, not including grading labor. Regular maintenance reduces long-term costs and extends the life of the driveway.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is easy to repair, but it requires ongoing maintenance and periodic regrading. Asphalt costs more initially and lasts longer (often 15-20 years with proper installation) with lower routine maintenance, while crushed limestone is similar to crushed stone but may be locally cheaper and provides a compact, durable surface if well maintained. Choose based on budget, traffic, desired appearance, and willingness to maintain the surface.
For farm roads, a layered approach works best: a durable base of larger crushed rock or angular rock, topped with crusher-run or a mix that includes fines to bind the surface. Adding dust-control agents like calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, or polymer stabilizers can significantly reduce dust between resurfacings. Heavy traffic areas benefit from thicker sections and periodic regrading to keep fines evenly distributed.
Requirements vary: Waskom city rules, Harrison County regulations, and any HOA covenants can affect driveway work, curb cuts, stormwater routing, or material choices. Before starting, check with Waskom city hall and any HOA or county office for permits or restrictions, and confirm driveway connections to public roads. If you need help, Hello Gravel can point you to local building and permitting resources when you request a quote.

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.
