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 Whitney Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Whitney, West Texas, is a small but growing community with a city population of 9,510 and sits inside a regional metro area of 2.7+ million. The area is expanding at a growth rate of 0.67% annually, and its semi-arid climate—hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall—creates particular demands for durable, low-maintenance landscaping and reliable site drainage. Homeowners here often need aggregates that stand up to strong sun, occasional heavy rains, and alkaline soils; those needs drive steady demand for gravel for driveways, drainage trenches, pathways, and erosion control around new construction and renovation projects. Gravel is a practical, long-lasting choice for Whitney properties because it promotes drainage, resists washout in storm events, and holds up well under persistent sun exposure. Locally sourced gravel reflects the regions geology, so color and texture may vary; that variation often helps the material blend with native landscapes. Hello Gravel simplifies getting the right material to your door by connecting you with trusted local suppliers and haulers, offering clear pricing, scheduled delivery windows, and guidance on quantities and material selection so your project gets the right gravel for Whitneys conditions.Popular Projects in Whitney This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Whitney gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Whitney.
Most gravel for Whitney is regionally sourced from nearby quarries and river deposits around the Brazos River and Hill Country foothills. That means color and texture reflect local geology, so materials may look different than stock photos. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers to keep delivery times and costs lower.
River gravel is rounded, mixed-size stones good for natural-looking shorelines and drainage; pea gravel is small, rounded 1/8"–3/8" stones often used for patios and walkways. For lakefront areas around Lake Whitney, river gravel is usually better for shoreline stabilization and natural appearance, while pea gravel is better for seating areas or paths away from water.
Gravel can be used for small shoreline repairs and informal boat ramps, but performance depends on slope, wave action, and permitting rules. Check local county or lake authority rules before placing material; you may need heavier crushed stone or engineering for a durable ramp.
Yes. When delivering near Lake Whitney or Brazos River banks, always be aware of wildlife, unstable ground, and changing water levels. Drivers will assess safety and may refuse to dump in risky locations; plan a safer, accessible drop zone away from steep banks.
Gravel is a popular, cost-effective driveway material in Whitney because it drains well and handles heat. To perform well in West Texas you need a proper base, sufficient depth (typically 3"–6" for light use, deeper for heavy trucks), and periodic maintenance to control washboarding after heavy rains.
Buying in bulk and choosing locally sourced materials generally gives the best price in Whitney. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers, order the minimum 3 tons or more to get delivery rates, and consider recycled crushed concrete for lower-cost base material.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, driveways, or high-traffic areas because it shifts and migrates easily. It also isn't ideal for areas that need compaction or for wheelchair access; use 3/4" crushed stone or larger angular rock instead for those applications.
To estimate: multiply length by width by depth (in feet), divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.3 to convert to tons. For example, a 20' x 20' driveway at 3" depth equals about 3.7 cubic yards or roughly 4.8 tons, so you would order at least 5 tons (Hello Gravel minimum is 3 tons).
Standard delivery in most areas requires 2+ business days; next-day may be available if ordered before noon CST for an extra fee. Hello Gravel typically uses tri-axle dump trucks, so ensure a clear, level drop zone with room for the truck to turn; drivers will not cross fragile lawns or unsafe terrain at their discretion.
Next-day delivery is often available for Whitney if you place the order before noon CST, but it depends on supplier and truck availability. Expect an additional fee and confirm delivery options during checkout or by contacting support.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials locally, color, size and texture will vary with Whitney's local geology and seasonal stock. Photos are illustrative; if you have a color preference, add notes at checkout and our team will try to match it where possible but cannot guarantee an exact match.
Prevent washout by installing proper edging, compacting a stable base, using geotextile fabric under the gravel, and directing stormwater away with swales or drains. Choosing angular crushed stone instead of rounded gravel can also help the surface lock together and resist movement.
For decorative beds and walkways around Whitney homes, 3/8" to 3/4" pea or polished river rock give a neat look, while 3/4" crushed stone is better for paths, driveways, and base layers. Consider local color preferences and drainage needs; our product pages and sales team can help match the right size to your project.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
