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.

Why Atwater Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Atwater, West California, has a city population of 35,470 and sits within a metro area of 284,723. With a steady growth rate of 0.10% annually and a climate that averages 271 sunny days and only 12.43 inches of rain per year (USDA hardiness zone 9b), homeowners here often prioritize low-maintenance, durable landscaping solutions. Driveway repairs, drought-tolerant front yards, erosion control on sloped lots, and small construction projects create steady demand for aggregates that handle both intense sun and occasional heavy downpours. Quality gravel is sought for its ability to improve drainage, cut down on mud and dust, and provide a long-lasting, low-upkeep surface for paths, pads, and drives.Popular Projects in Atwater This Season

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.
