Why Tustin Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
With a city population of 77,850, Tustin sits in a stable, steadily growing market where construction and landscaping demand tends to be consistent year to year. A measured growth rate of 0.40% annually means homeowners and small contractors are more likely to plan incremental upgrades—patios, drainage improvements, garden renovations, and hardscape refreshes—rather than large, boom-driven building campaigns. Tustin's climate—about 204 sunny days per year and an annual rainfall of 49.77 inches in USDA hardiness zone 9a—creates a mix of prolonged sun exposure and significant seasonal moisture that shapes material needs. That combination favors durable, UV-resistant products, reliable drainage aggregates, erosion-control supplies, and quality soils and mulches that retain moisture without becoming waterlogged. For local projects, sourcing properly specified bulk materials—gravel, sand, dirt, topsoil, mulch, and blended aggregates—helps protect investments in driveways, patios, planting beds, and drainage systems over the long term.Popular Projects in Tustin This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Tustin Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Tustin.
Homeowners and contractors in Tustin commonly use a mix of gravel, sand, dirt, and stone for driveways, patios, drainage work, and landscape beds. Choose a material based on function (load-bearing vs decorative), drainage needs, and local appearance rather than image photos, since regional sourcing can change color and texture.
Pick materials that match the project's function and Tustin's Mediterranean coastal climate: prioritize good drainage for winter rains and heat resistance for dry summers. Consider durability, maintenance needs, and appearance, and ask about local variations since materials reflect nearby geology.
Plan major deliveries for late spring through early fall when conditions are drier and crews can work without winter rain delays. Avoid scheduling sensitive installations during fall and winter storms; next-day delivery is available for qualifying orders if you need a quicker window.
Measure the area (length x width) and the desired depth, convert to cubic yards ((L x W x depth in feet) / 27), then add about 10% for compaction and waste. Use our online material calculator or consult a contractor to convert cubic yards into tons, since densities differ by material.
Deliveries are made by large dump trucks (typically tri-axle), so drivers need safe access and a clear drop zone. If access is tight, note delivery constraints when ordering — drivers will assess on arrival and may require an alternate drop spot; tailgate spreading may be possible at the driver's discretion.
Minimum orders usually start around 3 tons for online delivery services, and standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, and final availability and fees depend on your zip code and local supplier.
Winter rains can cause finer materials to wash away and may expose poorly drained areas, while summer heat and drought increase dust and crumbly textures in some materials. Proper compaction, surface grading, and selecting materials suitable for drainage and local conditions will reduce long-term issues.
Permit and HOA requirements vary by neighborhood; some changes to driveways, curb cuts, or impermeable surfaces may require city permits or HOA approval. Check with the City of Tustin planning department and your HOA before ordering materials to avoid delays.
For slopes, choose materials that promote drainage and resist erosion and pair them with proper grading, geotextile fabric, and retaining elements as needed. Well-graded aggregates and engineered mixes tend to perform better for drainage and require less frequent upkeep than loose fines in wet conditions.
Homeowners in Tustin buy materials from a mix of local landscape suppliers, quarries, big-box stores, and online delivery services that connect to trusted local haulers. Using a delivery service can simplify ordering, scheduling, and hauling, especially for larger loads that require dump trucks.
Contact the supplier or delivery team as soon as possible; changes are easier before the order is processed or dispatched. Hello Gravel will do its best to accommodate requests, but once trucks are dispatched or suppliers have processed the load, modifications may be limited.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

The material will be delivered via dump truck. If your order is under 20 tons, then it will likely be just one dump truck load. If your order is more than 20 tons, it will be more than one dump truck load.

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.
Hassle Free! Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!
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. However, we do charge a markup and because of this you may be able to find the materials cheaper on your own. But if you want a hassle free experience, then we are for you!
