Gravel: Drainage Built For West Branch • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In West Branch
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.
Walkway Gravel
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 West Branch Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
West Branch, with a city population of 19,213, is seeing steady demand for home improvements and site work driven by a 2.10% annual growth rate. The local climate—218 sunny days per year, an annual rainfall of 38.97 inches, and a planting hardiness zone of 8a—creates a mix of drying and occasional heavy-wet conditions that affect yards, driveways, and garden beds. That combination increases the need for reliable drainage, low-maintenance surfacing, and erosion control. Homeowners in West Branch seek quality aggregates because consistent particle size, angularity, and regional composition influence compaction, runoff behavior, and long-term performance in local soils and slopes.Popular Projects in West Branch This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - West Branch gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in West Branch.
Costs vary by gravel type and job size, but expect material prices roughly $15 to $45 per ton in the Texas region, with delivery often included or a modest fee depending on distance and access. Installation and compaction by a contractor typically adds labor and equipment costs; small residential installs commonly range from a few hundred dollars up to $1,500-$3,000 depending on base work, driveway length, and difficult site access. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee.
Crushed limestone and crushed rock are strong all-around choices in hot, humid Texas because they compact well and resist shifting under vehicle traffic. Decomposed granite offers a smooth, compact finish for paths and low-traffic driveways but may need occasional re-topping after heavy rains. Pea gravel is attractive and drains well but tends to migrate and is less stable for driveways unless contained with edging and a firm base.
A 20x40 foot driveway is 800 square feet. At 2 inches depth you need about 4.9 cubic yards (approximately 6.7 tons); at 3 inches about 7.4 cubic yards (approx. 10.0 tons); at 4 inches about 9.9 cubic yards (approx. 13.3 tons). These estimates assume a typical gravel density of about 1.35 tons per cubic yard; use Hello Gravel's material calculator or contact our team to confirm for your chosen product.
Yes—Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and haulers serving the Texas region to deliver bulk gravel. Our platform has a 3-ton minimum order; some individual suppliers or trucking companies may set higher minimums (commonly 5-10 tons) or charge a small delivery fee for long-distance hauls or tight-access drops. Check your zip code on our site or contact our team to see exact minima and any fees for your address.
Gravel provides excellent surface drainage compared with solid pavements, letting water infiltrate rather than run off immediately. However, West Branch's local soils—if heavy in clay or compacted—can reduce infiltration and cause ponding or washouts during intense storms, so a well-prepared base, proper slope, and edge restraints are important. For sites with poor subsoil or chronic runoff, consider adding a crushed-stone base, sub-drain, or geotextile to improve stability and drainage performance.
Plan to inspect and regrade your gravel driveway annually and after major storms; regrading smooths ruts and redistributes material. Topping up (adding 0.5 to 1 inch of material) is commonly needed every 1-3 years depending on traffic, and more frequent attention may be required after heavy rains. Keep vegetation trimmed, maintain proper drainage ditches, and consider periodic compaction to reduce movement and dust.
Gravel is less expensive up-front and easier to repair, making it a cost-effective choice for low- to moderate-traffic driveways in West Branch. Asphalt typically costs more initially but can be more durable and require less frequent topping if properly installed, which can make it more cost-effective for high-traffic driveways over many years. Consider expected traffic, maintenance willingness, and local contractor pricing when choosing between gravel and asphalt.
Permit requirements vary by city, county, and any HOA rules in West Branch, so check local permitting before you start. Special base prep is strongly recommended for driveways: a well-compacted subbase of crushed stone (commonly 4-6 inches) and a 2-4 inch finish layer of the chosen gravel improve longevity. On soft or clayey soils, geotextile fabric is a good idea to separate subgrade and aggregate, reduce mixing, and help prevent rutting.
Rates vary with access, base requirements, and equipment needed, but ballpark contractor charges for full driveway installation in the Texas region often range from about $1.00 to $3.00 per square foot, or $15 to $40 per ton installed when including labor and compaction. Mobilization, grading, and drainage work can add several hundred dollars, so get multiple written quotes and ask what is included (base, compaction, edging, haul fees). Hello Gravel can help you source materials so quotes focus on installation costs.
For smooth, compacted walkways and patios in West Branch, use finer, interlocking materials like 3/8" decomposed granite or 1/4" to 3/8" crusher fines, which compact well and are comfortable underfoot. For stable base layers beneath pavers or thicker paths, start with 3/4" crushed stone as a base and top with finer aggregate. Pea gravel is good for a casual garden look and drainage, but it shifts underfoot and benefits from edging and a compacted base for stability.
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.
