Materials Available for Delivery
Crushed Concrete
Recycled concrete aggregate for construction & landscaping. Often used for road base and sub-base applications, as fill material, and for erosion control. Typically 1 ½” down to fines.
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.
Brown Shredded Mulch
Shredded bark and wood from trees like oak, hickory, and maple, used for landscaping and gardening applications. Provides moisture retention in your soil, weed suppression, temperature regulation for plants, and the gradual addition of organic matter as it decomposes slowly over time. Adds a beautiful, finished look to your home’s exterior.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
3/4″ Crushed Stone
A reliable, clean ¾” crushed granite or limestone with many applications. Great for gravel driveways, concrete mixes, landscaping applications, and backfilling retaining walls or around foundations.

Why Lockeford Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Lockeford's population of 3,580 and its connection to a larger metro area of 7.9+ million set a backdrop of steady, manageable demand for home improvement and construction projects. A growth rate of 0.40% annually means expansion tends to be incremental rather than explosive, so homeowners are often focused on upgrades, maintenance, and targeted additions rather than large-scale new development. Local climate — about 204 sunny days per year combined with 49.77 inches of annual rainfall and placement in hardiness zone 9a — creates a need for materials that balance sun exposure resilience with reliable wet-season performance. That combination favors durable aggregates, well-graded fill, and materials that support good drainage and erosion control. Trends toward low-maintenance yards, functional hardscapes, and better stormwater management mean quality bulk materials matter: they reduce rework, improve longevity, and help projects perform under both sun and significant rain events.Popular Projects in Lockeford This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Lockeford Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Lockeford.
Lockeford's Central Valley climate has hot, dry summers and wetter winters, which affects compaction, erosion, and settling. Choose materials and mixes that handle local wetting and drying cycles and promote drainage; add a well-graded base where freeze-thaw or heavy rain is expected. For exposed surfaces plan for dust control in summer and better drainage or stabilizers for winter rains.
Match material performance to the project: durability and compaction for driveways, finer textures for patios and pathways, and well-draining mixes for areas with runoff. Consider load, maintenance, and appearance equally and ask suppliers about local blends that reflect Lockeford geology. Use the material calculator or contact our team to estimate quantities and suitability.
Local rules can affect curb cuts, driveway approaches, grading, and work in public right-of-way. Check San Joaquin County and Lockeford planning or public works offices before large changes to access or drainage. If you are unsure, request permit guidance from your contractor or call county planning for specifics.
Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order and typically schedules standard delivery in 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Deliveries are by contracted dump trucks (usually tri-axle), and rural Lockeford addresses may incur additional fees or longer lead times. Choose your preferred delivery date at checkout and add delivery instructions to help drivers place the load safely.
Drivers will assess site access on arrival; narrow lanes, low-hanging wires, and soft or steep ground may require an alternate drop location. Provide clear directions and a stable drop zone in Order Notes and be prepared to accept material at the nearest suitable access point. Tailgate spreading may be available at the driver's discretion but is not guaranteed.
Lockeford soils often include heavier, clay-rich layers that can hold water and reduce surface drainage. For areas prone to standing water choose materials and base layers that improve drainage and consider geotextile fabric or added sands and gravels to prevent mixing with native soils. Good site grading and proper sub-base preparation are key to long-term performance.
Schedule large deliveries and earthwork outside of the wettest winter months to avoid muddy conditions and delivery delays; spring and fall are commonly good windows. Summers are dry and workable but plan early-morning deliveries to avoid heat-related risks and dust. Check local weather and order early for busy seasons to secure preferred dates.
Prices depend on item type, quantity, distance from local suppliers, and haul conditions; rural deliveries or difficult access can add fees. We recommend getting a quote through our website or contacting our team; use the material calculator for rough quantities and request a delivery estimate for your Lockeford zip code. Transparent pricing and delivered quotes let you compare options easily.
Local contractors tend to favor well-graded, compactable base mixes that resist movement and shed water for driveways and heavy-use areas, while looser, finer mixes are often used for pathways and decorative areas. Preferences reflect local soil and climate, so discuss project load, maintenance expectations, and appearance with your contractor or our sales team when choosing materials. Regional sourcing means available blends may vary, so ask about local options.
Typical concerns include delivery access, drop location confusion, material shortfalls or overages, and differences between photos and actual product. Prevent issues by providing clear site instructions, measuring and ordering with the calculator (allowing for 5-10% overage for spreading), checking the delivery area for obstacles, and contacting customer service promptly with any issues. We will work with you to resolve problems and can advise on best practices before delivery.
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.
