Why Belvedere Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Belvedere is a vibrant community with a city population of 1.0+ million and a metro area population of 2.5+ million, growing at 0.70% annually. The local climate—hardiness zone 8b with 225 sunny days per year and moderate precipitation (annual rainfall 34.50 inches)—supports year-round landscaping and renovation work. That steady growth and favorable weather create ongoing demand for durable bulk materials, from driveway bases and patio subgrades to drainage layers and erosion-control fills. Homeowners and contractors alike turn to quality gravel to manage water runoff, stabilize slopes, and create low-maintenance surfaces that stand up to Belvedere’s sun and seasonal rains. Choosing the right aggregate helps projects perform better over time and reduces the need for frequent repairs or regrading. Gravel is well suited to Belvedere’s conditions: its granular structure improves infiltration during 34.50 inches of annual rainfall while resisting compaction across 225 sunny days per year and the local microclimates of hardiness zone 8b. Well-graded gravel makes an excellent base for driveways, walkways, French drains, and landscape beds where drainage and stability matter. Hello Gravel simplifies sourcing by connecting you with local suppliers, arranging professional dump-truck delivery (typically tri-axle), and offering transparent pricing and a material calculator. We require a minimum order of 3 tons, standard delivery takes 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST (additional fee). Request tailgate spreading at checkout; drivers may assist at their discretion.Popular Projects in Belvedere This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Belvedere gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Belvedere.
In Belvedere, the most affordable options are typically locally sourced crushed road base or recycled concrete because they use existing material and need less processing. Prices depend on local supply and truck access, so ordering at least our 3-ton minimum and requesting a quote will give the best estimate. Consider cost plus delivery and any spreading fees when budgeting.
For Belvedere's slopes and coastal exposure, a compacting base like 3/4" crushed stone or crusher run with a 1 to 2 inch top layer of 3/8" to 1/2" crushed gravel works well. These mixes drain, lock together under compaction, and resist washout better than round pea gravel on slopes. Add a geotextile fabric and proper grading for long-term stability.
#57 gravel is roughly 1/2" to 3/4" in size, angular, and commonly used for driveways, drainage, and as a base for pavers. Its angular pieces compact well while still allowing water to pass through. In Belvedere it is a good choice where you want both drainage and a firm surface.
Estimate by calculating area and depth, then converting to tons: area (ft2) x depth (in) / 324 = tons needed. Multiply tons by local per-ton delivered price and add delivery and spreading costs; for small Belvedere jobs expect higher per-ton rates because of local hauling. For an accurate price, check your zip code on our site or request a quote—remember our 3-ton minimum.
A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 10 to 12 cubic yards, roughly 12 to 15 tons depending on material density. Cost varies with local material, distance, and access, so get a Hello Gravel quote for exact pricing. Drivers may be limited by narrow roads or permit rules in Belvedere, which can affect final cost.
Coverage depends on depth: at 2 inches, 1 ton typically covers about 80 to 100 square feet; at 3 inches it covers about 55 to 70 square feet. Use the formula: area (ft2) x depth (in) / 324 = tons needed to estimate your project. Always round up for compaction and waste, especially on slopes in Belvedere.
You can place gravel directly on dirt for short-term or low-traffic uses, but for long-term driveways we recommend installing a compacted base and a geotextile fabric to prevent sinking and weed growth. On Belvedere slopes and near the coast, good drainage and compaction are especially important to avoid washout. Request tailgate spreading at checkout if you want the driver to assess spreading on arrival.
Some systems use stabilizers or polymer binders to lock gravel into a firm surface, and crusher-run compacted with fines will also form a very firm base when properly installed. These are not the same as poured concrete but can give a hard, stable finish for driveways and paths. For a permanent, load-bearing surface in Belvedere, discuss stabilization options with our team before ordering.
No, 2 inches of gravel is generally too thin for a driveway. We recommend at least 3 to 4 inches of compacted gravel on top of a compacted base, and 4 to 6 inches overall for regular vehicle traffic. In Belvedere, where slopes and drainage matter, thicker sections and proper base prep improve longevity.
One cubic yard of typical crushed stone usually weighs between 1.2 and 1.6 tons depending on rock type and moisture. A commonly used average is about 1.3 tons per cubic yard. Use the actual density from your Hello Gravel quote if you need precise ordering amounts.
Natural round gravel can be less expensive when it is locally available, but crushed stone often costs more because of quarrying and processing. In Belvedere, regional availability and truck access will largely determine price, so compare quotes on our site for the best option. Keep in mind crushed stone usually performs better for driveways because it locks together when compacted.
Yes, Belvedere has narrow streets, limited turning space, and some steep driveways, so drivers may need to place material in the most accessible safe spot rather than exactly where you want it. Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons and offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Request tailgate spreading at checkout but expect the driver to assess feasibility on arrival.
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.
