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.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions - Beale Air Force Base gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Beale Air Force Base.
Hello Gravel can arrange deliveries to Beale Air Force Base when our local supplier and contracted hauler have the required base access and the delivery location is reachable by commercial dump trucks. You should provide the full delivery address, sponsor or point-of-contact, and any entry instructions when ordering so we can request approval from base authorities. Expect possible requirements such as advance notice, an escort, or vehicle paperwork; we recommend contacting our team early so we can coordinate access with the hauling company and the base.
Residents in base housing commonly receive commercial deliveries but must follow base housing and installation rules, which can include delivery windows and specific drop locations. Contractors or nonresident workers typically need base credentials, background checks, or an escorted entry arranged through base offices. Before ordering, check with Beale AFB housing or the base point of contact and add any access notes to your Hello Gravel order so we can coordinate with the hauler.
For driveways in the Beale AFB area, 3/4" crushed stone or crushed rock with fines is a strong choice because it compacts well and sheds rain during wet winters. Decomposed granite (DG) works well for paths and patios, offering a natural look that binds when compacted, while pea gravel is good for ornamental areas and drainage but does not compact for driving surfaces. Consider drainage and erosion during winter rains and ask our team for locally sourced options that match northern California soils and color preferences.
In northern California, common gravel prices vary by type but often range roughly $30 to $80 per ton depending on material and color; specialty decorative gravels can cost more. Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons, matching our supplier network minimums, and many areas qualify for free delivery but some locations, specialty materials, or orders requiring base access may carry additional fees. Exact pricing and any delivery charges will appear in your online quote once you enter your zip code and material choice.
Standard delivery is 2 or more business days after order processing, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Because Beale AFB may require additional approvals for access, we recommend scheduling several days in advance to allow time for base coordination. You can choose a preferred delivery date during checkout, and your hauler will confirm timing before dispatch.
Hello Gravel focuses on material supply and delivery; we do not provide full installation services like grading or compaction as a standard offering. Tailgate spreading may be requested at checkout but is performed at the driver’s discretion and is not guaranteed. If you need installation, we can suggest checking our local partners or provide guidance on how to find contractors near Beale AFB.
Commercial trucks accessing Beale AFB may need authorization, proof of insurance, and to follow base traffic and parking restrictions, and some housing areas have specific delivery windows or weight limits. Because requirements vary by installation and road, coordinate with the base transportation or housing office before delivery and tell Hello Gravel about any special rules so we can relay them to the hauler. We will do our best to accommodate required windows but cannot guarantee approvals or changes after an order is dispatched.
To estimate material, calculate length x width x depth (in feet) divided by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 to convert to tons (example: a 20 ft by 10 ft area at 3 inches deep is about 1.85 cu yd or roughly 2.6 tons). Hello Gravel provides an online material calculator and free online quotes for your address, but onsite estimates are not a standard service from our delivery team; contact customer service if you need referrals for local landscapers who offer site visits. Always round up slightly to account for compaction and minor grading adjustments.
Yes, we offer decorative and colored gravels where available from our regional suppliers, but color and texture will reflect local geology and may vary from photos. Specialty materials often cost more per ton and can have different minimums or delivery handling requirements, which may affect shipping fees. You can note color preferences in your order notes and the exact cost for decorative options will show in your online quote.
We accept major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), PayPal, and Apple Pay through our secure checkout, and online quotes show itemized pricing before purchase. Because materials are sourced regionally and natural variation occurs, refer to our refund and resolution policy or contact customer service promptly if there is a problem with your delivery. For questions about warranties, returns, or damage claims related to a Beale AFB delivery, contact our support team so we can help coordinate resolution with the supplier and hauler.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
