Gravel: Drainage For Sunny Weslaco Yards • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Before Noon
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - Weslaco gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Weslaco.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect approximate delivered ranges in the Weslaco/Rio Grande Valley area: crushed limestone $25-$45 per ton ($18-$32 per cubic yard), pea gravel $35-$60 per ton ($25-$43 per cubic yard), and river rock $50-$90 per ton ($36-$64 per cubic yard). Actual price depends on exact product, color, truck access, and delivery distance; Hello Gravel lists a 3-ton minimum and will confirm a delivered price during checkout. These are ballpark ranges to help budget your project; request a quote to lock in final pricing.
Crushed limestone and local caliche are common and work well for Weslaco driveways because they compact and resist displacement. Decomposed granite (DG) can be attractive for low-traffic yards when stabilized, while pea gravel is better for decorative areas but can shift under vehicle traffic. Choose crushed stone or caliche for driveways and consider a stabilizer or edging for DG or pea gravel in high-traffic locations.
Gravel provides good surface drainage compared with solid pavements, but native clay or caliche layers can slow subsurface drainage and cause runoff or puddling. For best results, install a proper base (crushed stone), slope the surface away from structures, and use geotextile fabric or perforated drainage pipes where needed. In heavy summer storms common to the region, secure edging and adequate compaction help reduce washouts.
A 12x40 ft driveway (480 sq ft) requires about 4.4 cubic yards at 3 inches deep or about 8.9 cubic yards at 6 inches deep. Using a common conversion of roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard, that is about 6 to 12.5 tons depending on depth; most driveways use 3-6 inches of gravel depending on traffic. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, so order accordingly and add 5-10% for compaction and spreading waste.
At 2 inches deep, 500 sq ft needs about 3.1 cubic yards (roughly 4.3 tons); at 3 inches deep it needs about 4.6 cubic yards (roughly 6.5 tons). Choose depth based on use—walkways and decorative covers can be 1.5–2 inches, while seating or low-traffic areas may use 2–3 inches. Always round up for compaction and to account for spreading loss.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and contracted haulers serving the Weslaco/McAllen/Harlingen area and will provide specific supplier details when you enter your zip code. Our platform typically requires a 3-ton minimum order, and many local suppliers offer free standard delivery within a service area; additional fees may apply for next-day delivery, gated access, or long haul distances. During checkout Hello Gravel confirms the supplier, delivery window, and any extra charges so there are no surprises.
In Weslaco’s climate, decorative gravel and driveway rock commonly need top-ups every 1–3 years depending on traffic, storm runoff, and initial depth. Maintenance costs are mainly the material and occasional regrading or edging repairs; a small refresh delivery (1–2 tons) is typical for homeowners and can be scheduled through Hello Gravel. Preventing washout with edging and proper slope reduces how often you need to add material.
Gravel is the lowest upfront material cost and offers excellent drainage and flexibility on shifting caliche or clay soils, but it requires periodic replenishing and more maintenance. Asphalt is mid-cost, provides a smooth surface, and installs quickly, but can soften in extreme heat and may rut over time without a sturdy base. Concrete and pavers are highest cost with long service life and low routine maintenance, but they require good subgrade preparation in Weslaco’s soils and are less forgiving of ground movement.
Yes—avoid installing gravel right before the summer storm season and heavy rain events, which can wash newly placed material; the drier months (late fall through spring) are usually best for delivery and spreading. Heat alone is not a problem for placing gravel, but arranging installation around predictable storm windows reduces rework. If you need quick service, Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for qualifying orders placed before noon CST, subject to availability and extra fees.
Some HOAs and neighborhoods may limit gravel driveways or require specific colors, edging, or depth, so always check your HOA covenants before ordering. For city or county rules, contact the City of Weslaco Planning and Development Department or Hidalgo County permitting office to confirm hardscape standards and setback rules. Hello Gravel recommends confirming regulations first to avoid removal or rework costs.
To reduce dust, compact the base and consider products labeled for residential dust control or polymer binders that lock fines in place; regular watering also helps temporarily. For weed control use a pre-emergent herbicide before installation, install a permeable geotextile fabric, and maintain a 2–3 inch gravel layer; reapply spot herbicide as weeds appear. Use sturdy edging (metal, concrete, or thick timber) and proper compaction to keep gravel contained during summer storms and routine use.
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.
