Lightweight 3/4–1 1/2" volcanic rock for beds and borders
Red lava rock is crushed volcanic stone full of tiny air pockets, which makes it light and easy to spread. It goes down like mulch but doesn't rot, break down, or need replacing every year. Use it in shrub beds, around cactus and succulents, and along borders where you want warm color with less upkeep. Pieces run about 3/4 to 1 1/2 inch. Size varies slightly and shade varies by location.
Red lava rock is lightweight, porous volcanic stone about 3/4 to 1 1/2 inch that spreads like mulch, not heavy river rock that's hard to move.
Also called: lava rock, red cinder, volcanic rock, scoria, cinder rock, red lava stone.

The order was excellent, the entire process went smoothly. I ordered the walkway gravel for a project around the home and the road base for a patio. The delivery driver placed it exactly where I wanted it and it was delivered on time. Excellent customer service.

Ordered gravel , it was delivered with in a reasonable time. It will need power spayed once it’s spread out but it’s probably expected out of river rock

Once again I had a great second delivery of gravel! We loved having Kevin deliver on time and in just the right space. He was able to back into our steep driveway with great skill. Jodie, who scheduled our delivery kept us up to date with exactly when our delivery would be arriving. I am very pleased with the type of gravel they provide. It looks great on our walkway!

We received the best communication and support during the buying and delivery processes. User friendly links and fast quote, and the river rock is exactly as we pictured it. Would recommend Hello gravel from anywhere in the USA.

The road base was perfect for my project! I now have a very usable path to get to my hunting area. Thanks to everyone at Hello Gravel for all your support; especially Brian (driver) and Keronica. They were absolute superstars throughout my entire project!!!
