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.
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.

Why Eastern Malibu Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Eastern Malibu is a coastal community of 14,000 residents experiencing steady expansion, with a growth rate of 2.50% annually. The area enjoys a sunny, temperate climate—about 228 sunny days per year—and moderate precipitation, averaging 33.20 inches of rainfall annually, in USDA hardiness zone 8b. Those conditions, combined with proximity to a larger metro area of 2.3+ million people, drive steady demand for landscaping, drainage improvements, and low-maintenance yards. Homeowners here often choose gravel for projects because well-graded, locally sourced aggregates offer reliable drainage, help control erosion on coastal slopes, and create durable surfaces for driveways, pathways, and patios that stand up to sun exposure and seasonal rains.Popular Projects in Eastern Malibu This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Eastern Malibu gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Eastern Malibu.
Delivered gravel prices in Eastern Malibu vary by type and haul distance, but you can expect roughly $35 to $110 per ton for common gravels. Decorative or specialty gravels tend toward the higher end; exact pricing is available through Hello Gravel quotes for your zip code.
Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries, landscape yards, and independent haulers that serve Eastern Malibu and greater Los Angeles. Availability and delivery zones change by material and season, so enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or contact our team to see current suppliers and lead times.
Angular crushed rock (3/4" minus or similar) and decomposed granite (DG) are good choices because they lock together and resist shifting on sandy soils; pea gravel is attractive but can move on slopes. For steeper slopes, use angular aggregates, add geotextile fabric, and consider mechanical stabilization or binders to reduce migration and erosion.
Permit and HOA rules vary across Malibu and Los Angeles County; some areas have restrictions on visible frontage, drainage, or work near the coastal zone. Check with your city/county planning department and your HOA before installing gravel, and note that Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics but not municipal permitting.
Installed compacted gravel driveways in the Eastern Malibu area commonly range from about $4 to $12 per square foot depending on site prep, slope, and retaining work. DIY materials alone may run $1.50 to $4 per square foot, but factor in equipment rental, compaction, base material, and extra time on steep or restricted-access sites.
Use a proper sub-base, filter fabric (geotextile), edge restraint, and terracing or small retaining walls on slopes to hold material in place. Add swales, French drains, or rock-lined channels to direct runoff away from the slope and shoreline; for shoreline-adjacent work, check coastal regulations before adding riprap or altering drainage.
A good rule is roughly 1.3 tons per cubic yard of gravel. Examples: 1-car driveway (10x20 ft) at 4" depth ≈ 3.2 tons; 2-car driveway (20x20 ft) at 4" ≈ 6.4 tons; 20x20 patio at 4" ≈ 6.4 tons; 100 ft garden path (3 ft wide) at 2" ≈ 2.4 tons. Use Hello Gravel’s calculator for precise estimates including compaction and base layers.
In Eastern Malibu you should expect periodic top-ups every 2 to 5 years for driveways and high-traffic areas, with lighter maintenance for decorative beds possibly every 3 to 7 years. Reduce weed and dust issues by installing fabric under the gravel, applying a pre-emergent, and considering a stabilizer or polymer-treated product for paths and slopes.
Hello Gravel’s contracted drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed and depends on access, truck placement, and safety. Eastern Malibu’s narrow roads, steep driveways, or weight limits can restrict truck access—confirm site details and delivery notes when ordering to avoid delays or extra fees.
Order at least Hello Gravel’s 3-ton minimum and request photos or samples if color matters, since coastal sourcing can change appearance. Schedule delivery on calmer weather days for shoreline work, note access constraints in Order Notes, and call our team for help choosing angular vs rounded gravel based on slope and drainage needs.
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.
