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.

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.
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.
Driveway Gravel
A ¾”-1” clean, crushed stone ideal for rejuvenating worn down gravel driveways, or for installing a fresh new driveway on your property. Aesthetically pleasing and functional!

Why Commerce Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Commerce is a compact, steadily growing community of 8,200 residents. With a metro area of 15,000 and an annual growth rate of 0.50%, local homeowners and small contractors see steady demand for repairs, landscaping upgrades, and modest construction projects. The city sits in hardiness zone 8a, enjoys about 230 sunny days per year, and receives 42.00 inches of rain annually. That mix of abundant sun and notable rainfall supports year-round work but also creates real drainage and erosion concerns around foundations, driveways, and planting beds. Homeowners in Commerce look for reliable aggregates to manage runoff, stabilize paths, and create low-maintenance landscapes that stand up to both wet winters and warm summers.Popular Projects in Commerce This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Commerce gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Commerce.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and typically delivers by tri-axle dump truck. Delivered gravel prices in the West Los Angeles/Commerce area commonly range roughly from $40 to $120 per ton depending on material type and distance; many zips qualify for free delivery while some add a delivery fee (often $50 to $150). Standard delivery takes 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Always check your zip code at checkout for exact pricing and availability.
For Southern California conditions, angular crushed rock (3/4" minus or 3/4" washed) and stabilized decomposed granite (DG) perform very well because they lock together and resist washout. River rock drains well but tends to migrate and roll under vehicle traffic, so it is better for accents or beds than heavy-driveway use. Avoid very soft, fine gravels in driveways; choose angular/granular materials and consider a stabilizer for high-traffic areas.
Estimate using typical conversion: 2" depth = about 0.75 tons per 100 sq ft, 3" = about 1.1 tons, and 4" = about 1.5 tons. These figures assume common crushed gravel with a bulk density near 1.2 tons per cubic yard; different materials vary slightly. Always round up and remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so small projects may require more material than the strict calculation.
Yes, Commerce and Los Angeles County follow regional stormwater rules under the MS4 program, which encourage managing runoff and using permeable surfaces where practical. For most small residential landscaping swaps gravel is allowed, but larger or commercial projects may need Low Impact Development (LID) measures, erosion controls, or engineering review. If your project changes drainage, adds a new driveway, or affects the public right-of-way, check with the City of Commerce Planning or Public Works departments before you start.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and haulers that service the Commerce/West Los Angeles area, so you get local material matched to your zip code. Delivery fees vary by supplier and distance; many orders qualify for free delivery while some locations add a fee typically between $50 and $150. For exact suppliers and fees enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team and we will provide delivery and product options for your address.
Remove topsoil and organic matter, establish a stable subgrade, and install a geotextile fabric if the site is soft to stop mixing of soil and gravel. Build a compacted structural base of 4" to 6" of crushed rock (well-graded) compacted in lifts, then top with 2" to 3" of surface gravel or stabilized DG; compact each layer with a plate compactor or roller. Install sturdy edge restraints (concrete curbs, metal or treated timber) to keep material contained and control spreading.
Gravel has lower upfront cost but requires more routine maintenance—periodic raking, occasional regrading and additional material every few years—so lifetime costs depend on upkeep. Asphalt and concrete have higher initial costs and less frequent routine maintenance but are more expensive to replace when they fail; typical useful life is roughly 15-25 years for asphalt and 25+ years for concrete. Decomposed granite sits between gravel and paving: attractive and permeable but may need stabilizers or more frequent touch-ups in drive lanes.
HOAs have their own CC&Rs, so you must get HOA approval where applicable before changing front-yard landscaping. For city permits, Commerce may require permits for driveway alterations, curb cuts, or work that changes drainage or the public right-of-way; simple backyard landscaping swaps are often allowed but rules vary. Always confirm requirements with your HOA and the City of Commerce Planning & Building Division before ordering materials.
Have a clear drop zone and check overhead clearance, driveway width, and approach grades—tri-axle dump trucks need room to maneuver and may not be able to enter narrow alleys. Request tailgate spreading at checkout but expect the driver to decide on-site if it is safe; Hello Gravel does not guarantee spreading services. If you have gated entries, HOA restrictions, or special access instructions, note them in Order Notes and contact our team so we can coordinate with the hauler.
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.
