Bulk Gravel Delivery in Austin, Texas

Gravel is what holds an Austin landscape together. Decomposed granite for paths, 3/4" crushed limestone for driveway base, 3/8" limestone screenings for paver leveling, road base for compactable pads — every Hill Country yard project eventually needs at least one of them, and Yards Direct delivers all of them by the cubic yard.

For driveways and pads, 3/4" crushed limestone is the standard base rock in the Austin metro — it compacts cleanly, drains well, and handles the wet-dry cycling that this climate puts material through. For paths and patios in places like Westlake, Tarrytown and Travis Heights, 1/2" minus decomposed granite is the go-to: it tamps down into a firm walking surface with a natural color that suits Hill Country aesthetics. Builders working pavers across Mueller, Cedar Park and Round Rock use our 3/8" limestone screenings as a leveling layer underneath the stones.

How much gravel do you need? One cubic yard covers about 108 square feet at 3 inches deep, or roughly 80 square feet at 4 inches. Driveways typically run 4-6 inches of base; paths usually 2-3 inches; paver bases 1 inch of screenings over a compacted base. Use the calculator to size your order before checkout.
