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.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - Harbor Gateway North gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Harbor Gateway North.
Yes. Gravel can improve drainage, reduce mud, and cut down on landscape maintenance in Harbor Gateway North's mild, Mediterranean climate. To protect your foundation, keep gravel a few inches away from siding, maintain proper grading away from the house, and choose the right size and depth for the area.
Three common types are pea gravel (rounded, decorative, comfortable underfoot), crushed stone (angular, compacts well, great for driveways and drainage), and decomposed granite (finer, packs down for paths). For most residential uses around a house, crushed stone for drainage and pea gravel for decorative beds are the best choices.
For Southern California conditions, use washed, angular drain rock (usually 1/2" to 3/4") around foundations and in drainage swales to move stormwater quickly. Decomposed granite or pea gravel work well for pathways and decorative areas because they tolerate dry summers and rare freeze events.
Very fine gravel is often called screenings, crusher fines, or gravel dust. It compacts tightly and can hold moisture, so it is generally not recommended immediately next to foundations for drainage; it may be okay on walkways or as a top layer in controlled areas.
Use this quick formula: (area in sq ft) x (depth in inches) / 324 = approximate tons. For example, 500 sq ft at 2 inches deep needs about 3.1 tons; Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons and we deliver by dump truck, so you can order online and choose a delivery date (check your zip code for availability).
Hello Gravel coordinates material supply and delivery but does not provide full installation services. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion if requested at checkout, but for guaranteed installation or fabric placement you should hire a local landscaper or contractor.
Clean, washed, angular crushed rock (commonly 3/4" drain rock) combined with proper grading and, when needed, a perforated drain pipe, works best for foundation drainage. Local soil conditions in Harbor Gateway North can affect performance, so consider a short contractor assessment if you have clay soils or persistent water issues.
Angular crushed stone in the 3/8" to 3/4" range laid 2 to 3 inches deep over a quality weed barrier reduces weed growth and limits movement. Note that no system is weed-proof; periodic maintenance and good edging help keep gravel tidy over time.
Costs vary by material type, delivered quantity, and labor, but expect to pay for material plus delivery and any contractor fees. As a rough example, a small perimeter project that uses about 3 to 6 tons of material may have material and delivery costs in the low hundreds, with professional installation adding several hundred to a few thousand dollars; request a quote from Hello Gravel and local installers for an accurate price.
Landscape fabric helps reduce weeds and keeps gravel from mixing into the soil, but it is not always required and can affect long-term drainage. Hello Gravel delivers bulk materials but does not provide fabric installation; you can request fabric from local suppliers or add it to your project list when hiring a contractor.
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.
