Driveway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your New Braunfels address and unloads right where you point.






If you are building a new driveway in New Braunfels or resurfacing an existing one, driveway gravel from Gravel Monkey gives you a durable surface that handles local weather. The 3/4-inch size locks together well for a stable top layer, while the 1 1/2-inch gravel works as a deep base.
New Braunfels gets about 35 inches of precipitation a year, so planning for drainage is important. A well-drained gravel base keeps the driveway from washing out during heavy rains.
Choosing driveway gravel means picking the right size for the job. Base materials are coarser and handle load, while finish materials are smaller and compact to a smooth surface. The table below lists every size we offer.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway Gravel | general driveway top layer | A versatile top layer that works for most residential driveways. |
| 3/8" Driveway Gravel | smooth top dressing, comfortable underfoot | A finer gravel that is easy to walk on and gives a neat finish. |
| 3/4" Driveway Gravel | the standard driveway size, locks together well | The most common size for driveways, it interlocks for a stable surface. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | heavier traffic and soft ground | Suited for commercial loads or soft base conditions. |
| 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel | deep base layer under a finer top | Used as a foundation layer before adding a smaller top surface. |
| 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | rural lanes, mud control, first lift | Large stones for muddy conditions or the first pass on a rural lane. |
For projects on a budget, a thinner layer of smaller gravel might work for a few years. For a long-term installation, a thicker base with larger stone is the better choice. The table below gives recommendations for common driveway jobs.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| New driveway base | 1 1/2" Driveway Gravel (base) and 3/4" Driveway Gravel (surface) | Base 4 to 6 inches, surface 2 to 3 inches |
| Culvert and shoulder repair | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | 6 to 8 inches for fill and stability |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Driveway Gravel | 4 inches compacted |
| Muddy rural lane | 2"-3" Driveway Gravel | First lift of 6 inches, then top with 3/4" |
| Resurfacing an existing driveway | Driveway Gravel or 3/8" Driveway Gravel | 2 inches as a top dressing |
Comal County is growing, with about 2,263 single-family homes permitted in 2024. Many of those new homes need driveways, and the local climate shapes how they are built. New Braunfels sees about 46 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters.
Freezing days, about 20 a year, can affect the work window and cause ground movement. The ground around New Braunfels takes water in slowly, so water tends to run across the surface. A deeper drainage layer under the driveway helps manage that runoff.
Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
Estimating the amount of driveway gravel depends on the size of the area and the depth you plan to use. Use the driveway gravel calculator to get a tonnage estimate based on your measurements. Order by the ton, and the exact price appears at checkout.
