Why Midway City Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Midway City, West California, California, has a population of 7,030 and sits inside a larger metro region of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.80% annually and a climate that sees 228 sunny days and 34.25 inches of rain each year in hardiness zone 8b, homeowners here face a mix of sun, seasonal storms, and well-established neighborhoods that drive ongoing maintenance and small-scale construction projects. Driveways, drainage upgrades, garden paths, and patio bases are common needs as yards are adapted for water management and low-maintenance landscaping. That steady local demand means residents look for dependable aggregates that perform well in both dry heat and periodic rainfall, so material consistency, correct sizing, and local availability matter to keep projects on schedule and working as intended.Popular Projects in Midway City This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Midway City gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Midway City.
Local prices change frequently and depend on supplier, quantity, and delivery distance. Expect rough retail ranges of $35-$70 per ton for pea gravel, $30-$60 per ton for 3/4" crushed stone, and $25-$55 per ton for decomposed granite, but contact Hello Gravel or local suppliers for an exact quote to your zip code. Hello Gravel can show transparent delivery and material fees when you enter your address.
For driveways, 3/4" crushed stone or crushed road base performs best because it compacts and resists ruts. For patios and walkways, decomposed granite or finer crushed rock creates a smoother finish; pea gravel is attractive for decorative areas but can shift under vehicle traffic. For drainage, angular crushed stone (3/4" to 1") and washed gravel let water pass while staying stable.
Use this quick estimate: 100 sq ft at 2" depth needs about 1.0 ton of 3/4" crushed gravel, and at 4" depth about 2.0 tons. These numbers assume typical aggregate density; order a little extra (5-10%) to allow for compaction and grading. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator for a site-specific estimate.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers and haulers who deliver loose materials; many users also request contractor referrals through our network. We do not guarantee contractor work, so ask for written estimates that include base prep, compaction, and cleanup. If you need installed pricing, request a site visit or multiple quotes to compare labor and base material costs.
Rules vary by city, unincorporated county areas, and HOAs. Midway City and many Orange County jurisdictions may have landscaping, pervious surface, or design standards that affect gravel driveways, and some HOAs limit loose-surfaced driveways. Check Midway City planning or your HOA guidelines and call the city planning department before installation to confirm permit or setback requirements.
Coastal salt air mainly affects metal components like edging or fasteners, so choose stainless or galvanized materials where needed. Heavy rains can cause washout or migration of finer gravel; use a well-compacted base, proper drainage channels, and edging to reduce movement and erosion. Expect to do occasional topping-up after significant storms, especially on slopes or exposed areas.
Common small equipment includes a plate compactor (recommended) and a small skid steer or bobcat for larger spreads. Typical Midway City rental ranges: plate compactor $60-$120 per day, small skid steer $250-$450 per day; wheelbarrows and rakes are much cheaper. If you prefer a contractor, labor and installation normally run higher than rental plus DIY labor, so get job-specific quotes before deciding.
A compacted road base or crushed aggregate base (3/4" minus or graded crushed stone) is the standard underlayer to stabilize gravel in Midway City. For poor or clayey soils, add 4"-6" of compacted road base over a geotextile fabric to separate soil and prevent mixing. Proper compaction in 2-3" lifts is critical to avoid future settling and ruts.
Slope surfaces away from structures and install catch basins or French drains where water concentrates to prevent pooling and washout. Compact base material and top aggregate in thin lifts using a plate compactor, and maintain edges with solid edging to keep gravel contained. Regular maintenance like refilling low spots and regrading after heavy rains will extend the life of the surface.

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.
