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 La Verne Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
La Verne, with a population of 30,320 and steady growth of 1.60% annually, sits inside a busy West California metro area of 2.7+ million people. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year and a moderate 34.25 inches of rainfall—combined with hardiness zone 8b creates year-round landscaping activity and steady demand for durable materials. As homes are updated and new yards are built, homeowners and contractors need aggregates that handle sun exposure, seasonal runoff, and the region's varied soils. Gravel often meets those needs: it provides reliable drainage, low maintenance, and a versatile look for driveways, walkways, and erosion-control projects, making it a common choice for homeowners balancing performance and curb appeal in a growing market.Popular Projects in La Verne This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - La Verne gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in La Verne.
A 50 lb bag of gravel contains roughly 0.5 cubic feet of material, which covers about 3 square feet at a 2-inch depth. This is an approximation—actual coverage varies by gravel type and how much it settles or is compacted.
One ton of typical gravel (about 2,000 lb) equals roughly 20 cubic feet. At 2 inches depth that covers about 120 square feet, and at 3 inches it covers about 80 square feet, so expect roughly 80-120 sq ft per ton depending on depth and compaction.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST at an extra charge. Many orders include free delivery, but fees vary by zip, supplier, truck access and load size; typical local delivery charges can range from no fee up to a modest flat fee (often $50-$150) for short hauls or special access—request a quote for exact pricing.
For a driveway in La Verne a 2-inch layer is generally too thin. We recommend 3-4 inches of gravel on top of a properly prepared base (or a 4-6 inch compacted crushed-rock base for vehicle use) to resist rutting and washouts during seasonal rains.
Cost depends on width and depth; for a single-car driveway 20 ft long by 10 ft wide at a 3-inch depth you need about 2 cubic yards (roughly 2.5-3 tons). Material plus delivery and basic placement typically ranges widely—rough estimate $200-$500 for materials and delivery, with additional labor or compaction costs if you hire installation help; request a local quote for an accurate price.
Assuming a common single-car width of 10 ft, a 20 ft long area is 200 sq ft. At 3 inches depth that is about 1.9 cubic yards; at 4 inches it is about 2.5 cubic yards—order an extra 10-15% to allow for compaction and trimming.
For small decorative areas or low-traffic paths you can place gravel on compacted soil with landscape fabric to slow mixing, but for driveways you should install a compacted base (crushed rock) and consider geotextile fabric to improve stability. Fabric typically costs roughly $0.50-$1.50 per sq ft and compactor rental runs about $60-$120 per day; professional base preparation will add labor costs—ask our team for local installation referrals.
In La Verne's Mediterranean climate a well-built gravel driveway can last many years with regular maintenance—plan to regrade or fill low spots every 1-3 years and add a top-up of gravel every 3-5 years depending on traffic. Annual maintenance is low to moderate (raking, weed control, occasional top-up) and periodic material top-ups for a typical driveway often cost in the low hundreds when needed.
By volume a 7x14 bed with a low side height holds roughly 6-8 cubic yards, but trailer payload is often limited by weight ratings so the usable amount in tons will be lower. That means small trailers can work for tight-access jobs or small orders, but Hello Gravel generally coordinates tri-axle dump trucks for larger loads to deliver more material in one trip—check access and preferred truck type when ordering.
Pea gravel is generally cheaper per ton and easier to spread and compact, making it a more cost-effective choice for paths and driveways. River rock is heavier, larger, and usually more expensive to buy and install; if you want a smooth, stable driveway crushed stone or pea gravel is typically the better budget-friendly choice.
Order online or contact Hello Gravel with your La Verne zip code, the material type and approximate quantity (tons or cubic yards), delivery address with access details, and desired delivery date. Mention any site constraints (narrow driveways, power lines, or steep grades) and whether you want the driver to attempt tailgate spreading—these details help us match you with the right supplier and truck.
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!
