Why San Diego Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
San Diego homeowners face a particular mix of steady growth and sun-driven demand: the city population is 4,690 and the broader metro area has 2.5+ million residents, with a modest annual growth rate of 0.70%. That steady expansion usually means ongoing, reliable need for repair, renovation, and smaller new-build projects rather than boom-driven spikes. With 228 sunny days per year and 34.80 inches of annual rainfall in hardiness zone 8b, material choices must balance heat and UV exposure with effective drainage during wetter periods. Homeowners are increasingly choosing low-maintenance hardscapes, permeable surfaces, and soils that support drought-tolerant plantings. Quality bulk materials—gravel, sand, topsoil, mulch, and base stone—matter here because the right gradation and composition reduce erosion, improve water management, and extend the lifespan of patios, driveways, and planting beds.Popular Projects in San Diego This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - San Diego Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in San Diego.
Costs are typically quoted per ton or per cubic yard and vary by material, distance, and order size. Local factors like supplier inventory, truck access, and fuel surcharges also affect price. Use Hello Gravel's quote tool or request a local estimate to get an accurate, transparent price for your zip code.
Many local suppliers and haulers in the area offer same-week or next-day delivery depending on stock and truck availability. Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for qualifying orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee; standard delivery typically requires 2+ business days. Always check availability for your zip code and request a delivery date when ordering.
Choose materials that match the function: heavier, angular aggregates are better for driveways, while small decorative stone and mulch work well for low-water landscaping. For erosion-prone spots choose larger stone or engineered mixes and combine them with vegetation or stabilizing fabric. Because regional sourcing influences appearance and performance, consider local samples for final selection.
Spring and fall generally offer the most favorable temperatures and lower wind, which helps compaction and installation. Avoid the hottest summer days for major installs and plan around any local rainy periods to prevent working on saturated soil. Scheduling deliveries for cooler parts of the day can also protect plants and make handling easier.
Many suppliers set minimum orders and delivery zones for rural areas; Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons. Remote deliveries often incur additional mileage or fuel fees and may require a minimum volume to be economical. If you have a narrow driveway or difficult access, note that when ordering so the hauler can assess feasibility.
Measure the project area, decide the required depth, and convert that volume to cubic yards (area x depth) to estimate material needs; then add 5-10% for waste and compaction. Contractors multiply volume by the supplier's unit price and add delivery, labor, and site-preparation costs. Hello Gravel's material calculator can simplify these conversions and provide a quick local quote.
Combining heavier grades of aggregate, geotextile fabric, terraces or retaining walls, and drought-tolerant groundcover provides durable erosion control. Larger stone and engineered mixes slow water flow, while vegetation stabilizes soil long term. For steep or active slopes, consult a professional for a site-specific erosion control plan.
Quotes depend on material type, quantity, supplier location, distance to your site, truck access, and current fuel or seasonal surcharges. Site conditions like the need for offloading with limited turn radius, permits, or special equipment can add cost. Request an itemized quote to see how each factor affects the total.
Typical deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so you will need a clear route, adequate turning radius, and no low overhead wires where the truck will operate. Indicate preferred drop location in the order notes, and note that drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed. If access is restricted, plan for a smaller truck or an alternate drop point.
Natural aggregates vary by region, so color and texture may differ from photos; note any color preferences in your order notes but expect some variation. Contact Hello Gravel customer service as soon as possible to request changes; modifications are easier before materials are dispatched. If there is an issue after delivery, report it promptly so the team can work toward a satisfactory resolution.
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.
