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.
Compost
Premium compost packed with organic nutrients—perfect for revitalizing tired soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth. Ideal for mixing into garden beds, raised beds, and landscapes needing a natural boost.
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.

Why Bear Creek Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bear Creek, with a city population of 116,244, is experiencing steady expansion that is reshaping homeowner needs and local projects. A 2.50% annual growth rate indicates ongoing residential development, infill, and landscaping upgrades as new households and infrastructure demand durable surfaces and low-maintenance yards. Located in Central-Alameda in the California Region and situated in USDA hardiness zone 8b, Bear Creek averages 228 sunny days per year and receives about 33.20 inches of rain annually. That combination of long, sunny periods and moderate seasonal rain means homeowners need materials that tolerate sun and heat, manage winter runoff, and reduce erosion. For this market, reliable bulk supplies—topsoil and planting mixes, sand and base material, mulch, and structural aggregates—are essential to build resilient driveways, patios, planting beds, and drainage systems that perform year-round.Popular Projects in Bear Creek This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bear Creek Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bear Creek.
Start with the project use: decide if the surface needs to drain, support vehicle traffic, or just look decorative. Consider slope, local climate, and how much maintenance you want; materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone each perform differently for stability, drainage, and appearance. Use Hello Gravel’s material quiz and calculator or contact our team for a quick recommendation based on your specific site.
Measure the area (length x width) and the desired depth to get cubic feet, then convert to cubic yards and to tons using our online calculator. Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and provides a calculator at checkout; you can also text or call our team to double-check your numbers before ordering.
Yes. California’s hot, dry summers and seasonal rains influence drainage, dust, and compaction needs, so choose materials that resist erosion and settle well in local conditions. Because we source regionally, texture and color may vary, so factor local performance into your choice and ask our team about regional recommendations.
Pick a material that compacts well, allows drainage, and matches the expected vehicle load and appearance you want. Consider a stable base layer and a suitable surface layer; gravel, sand, dirt, stone can be combined in layers for strength and drainage. Ask about estimated quantities and maintenance tips for Bear Creek conditions.
Sometimes, but different uses often need different grades: paths benefit from stable, compactable mixes while beds may use finer, looser material for planting and moisture control. Color and particle size also affect weed suppression and aesthetics, so choose materials with the performance you need and add preferences in the order notes.
Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days after ordering, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. You choose your preferred delivery date at checkout, and you should check your zip code for service availability in the Bear Creek area.
The truck will dump where there is safe, direct access and room to stage the load; drivers will choose the spot on arrival based on access and safety. Mark your preferred drop zone, clear obstacles, and communicate special instructions in Order Notes so the driver can assess on arrival.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on safety and equipment on site. You can request spreading at checkout, but plan for additional labor or tools in case the driver cannot spread the material.
Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest before the order is processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications are not guaranteed once the supplier or truck is scheduled.
Natural materials vary by region and supplier, so texture and color may differ from photos. Because we source locally, your material will reflect Bear Creek’s geology; add color or texture preferences in Order Notes and contact customer service with any concerns.
Confirm site access, truck turning radius, staging area, and any local permits or HOA rules before ordering; tri-axle dump trucks are commonly used and need space to maneuver. Communicate timing with your crew, order early for large jobs, and coordinate with Hello Gravel so suppliers and haulers are aligned.
Avoid scheduling big deliveries during heavy storm windows and plan around busy spring and summer seasons when lead times increase. Store material on a stable, level surface, cover if needed to prevent erosion or contamination, and account for drying or compaction changes in hot, dry weather.
Look at permeability, gradation (mix of particle sizes), and stability—materials that drain well and interlock resist erosion better. For most projects consider a layered approach and consult our team for a recommendation that balances drainage, stability, and local conditions using gravel, sand, dirt, stone as needed.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end. We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
