Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

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 Midway Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Midway is a small but growing community (city population 200) that sits within a larger metropolitan region (metro area population 2.3+ million). The area is expanding at a steady pace (2.50% annually), and Midway's climate—USDA hardiness zone 8b with 228 sunny days per year and about 33.20 inches of annual rainfall—makes outdoor projects feasible throughout most of the year. As local development continues, homeowners are updating driveways, patios, and drainage systems to match neighborhood improvements, increasing demand for reliable aggregates. Quality gravel is sought for long-lasting driveways, erosion control, and improved stormwater management; homeowners need accurate material selection and quantities to avoid delays and extra costs on jobs large and small.Popular Projects in Midway This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Midway gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Midway.
Costs vary by material type, delivery distance, and installation method. In the Midway area, expect delivered material prices (material plus delivery) commonly in the range of $50 to $120 per ton for typical gravel types; specialty aggregates can be higher. Installation and spreading labor or compaction is usually additional and can range from a few hundred dollars for a small path to several thousand for a large driveway; minimum orders are generally 3 tons through our network. For an accurate price, get a quote for your zip code and preferred material through Hello Gravel.
Decomposed granite and 3/4" crushed rock are popular in Midway because they lock together well, resist dust when compacted, and match dry-climate landscaping styles. Crushed basalt or local crushed stone give good load-bearing for driveways, while pea gravel is attractive but can shift more under traffic and heat. Expect regional color and texture variations because suppliers source locally; add a note at checkout if you have a color preference.
Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers that serve the Midway area; specific supplier locations and delivery radii vary by material and county. Our platform’s standard minimum order is 3 tons, and most deliveries arrive by tri-axle dump truck. Delivery fees and how far a supplier will haul depend on the quarry and the truck partner, so enter your zip code or request a quote to see exact options and limits.
Small residential gravel projects often do not require a permit, but requirements vary by city and county in California. You may need a permit for driveway apron changes, grading, or if your work affects stormwater flows or the public right-of-way; HOAs can also have rules on front-yard materials. Check Midway city planning or county public works before you install, or contact our team for guidance on typical local requirements.
First calculate cubic yards using: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324. Then convert to tons using a typical density of about 1.3 tons per cubic yard for common gravel (use 1.3-1.5 if you want a conservative estimate). Example: a 12 ft by 20 ft driveway (240 sq ft) at 3" depth needs about (240*3)/324 = 2.22 cubic yards, roughly 2.9 tons—note our minimum order is 3 tons so you would meet the minimum.
Gravel itself handles drought well—it won't dry out like mulch or turf—but wind can move finer particles and rain can cause fines to wash into low spots. Expect routine maintenance like raking, topping up surface gravel every few years, cleaning out accumulated silt, and maintaining edges to limit spreading. For areas with heavy runoff, proper base preparation and drainage are important to prevent washouts and reduce maintenance.
Contractors commonly recommend excavating to the required depth, installing a geotextile fabric, then placing 4-6 inches of crushed rock or class II road base compacted in 2- to 3-inch lifts with a plate compactor. Finish with a 1-2 inch wearing layer of the chosen gravel, and install a solid edge restraint to keep material in place. Crowning the driveway center and adding trenches or swales helps manage runoff and prevent erosion in Midway’s seasonal rains.
Gravel typically has the lowest upfront material and installation cost compared to asphalt, concrete, or pavers, and it offers good permeability which helps stormwater. Long-term maintenance for gravel includes periodic regrading and topping up, while asphalt and concrete require less frequent but sometimes more expensive repairs. Pavers are durable and low-maintenance but have higher installation costs and a different aesthetic; pick based on budget, desired look, and drainage needs.
Many California jurisdictions encourage permeable surfaces to reduce stormwater runoff, and some local programs offer incentives or streamlined approvals for permeable landscaping. Rules and incentives vary by city and county, so check Midway or your county stormwater and planning departments for specific guidance. If you need help, Hello Gravel can point you to common local practices and suppliers who work with permeable designs.
Standard delivery in our network is generally 2 or more business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee, though actual local cutoffs may vary. During peak season (spring through fall) expect longer lead times and limited spreading availability—tailgate spreading is offered at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed. For best results, schedule deliveries in advance and request spreading at checkout; contact our team if you have a tight timeline.
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.

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.
