Why Irwindale Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a city population of 993,588 and a metro area of 2.7+ million, Irwindale sits in a steadily growing West California region expanding at 0.40% annually. The climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rain annually in hardiness zone 8b—supports outdoor living but requires smart water management. That mix of sun and periodic rain drives steady demand for gravel in landscaping and light construction: driveways, patios, pathways, French drains, and erosion control beds. Homeowners and local contractors look for aggregates that deliver reliable drainage, resist washout during storms, and match local soils and plant palettes. Because regional geology varies, buyers value consistent gradation, clean (washed) material for drainage, and clear delivery timing when planning projects.Popular Projects in Irwindale This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Irwindale gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Irwindale.
A 50 lb bag is about 0.0185 cubic yard, so it will cover roughly 6 sq ft at a 1-inch depth and about 3 sq ft at a 2-inch depth. For pathways or small accent beds in Irwindale, plan on several bags per square yard; for driveways or larger areas, bulk delivery is usually more economical.
One ton of crushed stone is roughly 0.74 cubic yards, which covers about 240 sq ft at a 1-inch depth, 120 sq ft at 2 inches, or 80 sq ft at 3 inches. Use the depth you plan to compact; Irwindale homeowners typically use 2-3 inches for surface layers and more for base material.
Pea gravel has similar coverage to crushed stone. Expect about 240 sq ft at 1 inch, 120 sq ft at 2 inches, and 80 sq ft at 3 inches per ton, with small variation based on moisture and compaction.
Two inches of gravel is usually not enough for a driveway's base; it might work as a thin decorative topcoat over a proper base. For driveways in Irwindale we recommend a compacted base of 4-6 inches of crushed rock, plus a 1-2 inch decorative layer on top for stability and drainage.
Calculate area first: for a 100 ft long by 10 ft wide driveway you have 1,000 sq ft. At 3 inches depth you'll need about 12.5 tons; at 4 inches about 16.7 tons. Adjust the width and desired depth for your specific project and contact Hello Gravel for a quick estimate.
A common tri-axle dump truck carries about 9 cubic yards (roughly 12 tons) of gravel. That equals about 2,916 sq ft at 1 inch, 1,458 sq ft at 2 inches, or 972 sq ft at 3 inches; for a 10-foot-wide driveway that is about 146 ft at 2 inches. Actual truck capacity can vary by supplier, so confirm the load size when ordering.
Prices vary by material, load size, and delivery distance. In Southern California you can typically expect a wide range depending on type (for example base rock vs decorative pea gravel); the fastest way to know is to request an on-site quote from Hello Gravel for transparent pricing and delivery fees. We show local supplier rates during checkout so you can compare options.
Ordering bulk by the ton is almost always cheaper than buying bags, especially for areas larger than a few dozen square feet. Use Hello Gravel to compare local suppliers, order the minimum 3 tons if that fits your needs, or pick up material yourself if you have a suitable truck or trailer to save on delivery fees.
Yes, many homeowners install gravel themselves. Key steps are proper grading, installing a geotextile weed barrier if desired, laying and compacting a 4-6 inch base for driveways, then spreading and compacting the top layer; consider local slopes and drainage to prevent washouts during Irwindale's winter rains. If you prefer, request a contractor recommendation or professional delivery with tailgate spreading noted at checkout (spreading is at the driver's discretion).
Gravel is durable and can last many years, but it will shift, settle, and thin over time, especially on driveways and high-traffic areas. Expect to replenish or regrade surface gravel every 3-5 years depending on use and local rainfall; regular raking, occasional top-ups, and good drainage extend its life.
Yes. Most gravel and rock on private property or active quarries is not legal to remove without permission, and public lands and waterways may have restrictions or require permits. If you find a source or want to salvage material, check local regulations and get authorization from landowners or the city of Irwindale before taking anything.
A 7x14 dump trailer with 1-foot-high sides holds about 3.6 cubic yards; with typical 1.5-foot or 2-foot sides it holds about 5.4 to 7.2 cubic yards. That translates to roughly 5 to 10 tons depending on depth and material density, so check your trailer's rated capacity before loading and consider ordering slightly less to avoid overloading.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
