Gravel: Coastal Drainage For Rainy Winters • Fast Gravel Delivery Across Bodega Bay
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 Bodega Bay Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bodega Bay is a coastal community with a city population of 1,180 and sits within a metro area of 2.5+ million. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually, modest development and renovation projects are common as homeowners maintain and adapt properties to a coastal lifestyle. The local climate—about 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and USDA hardiness zone 8b—creates conditions where materials must handle both wet winters and extended sun. Gravel is a frequent choice for driveways, drainage trenches, erosion control on sloped sites, and pathways because it sheds water, reduces puddling, and blends with natural coastal landscaping. Homeowners often seek clear guidance on stone size, compaction, and delivery timing, which helps projects stay on schedule and perform through seasonal weather shifts. Gravel performs well in Bodega Bay’s environment: it improves surface drainage during 34.25 inches of annual rainfall and resists surface degradation across 228 sunny days. Coarse, angular gravels are preferred for load-bearing areas like driveways; washed gravel and pea stone work well for paths and garden beds where percolation matters. Hello Gravel connects you with local suppliers who source regionally appropriate gravel, provides transparent pricing and scheduled delivery by local haulers, and offers tools and expert guidance so homeowners get the right aggregate for coastal projects. Request tailgate spreading at checkout; drivers may perform spreading at their discretion upon arrival.Popular Projects in Bodega Bay This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bodega Bay gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bodega Bay.
Prices vary by supplier, season, and delivery distance, so a pea gravel order for Bodega Bay can differ from inland areas. Hello Gravel shows transparent pricing in checkout and requires a 3-ton minimum; delivery fees may apply depending on your zip code and selected delivery window. Contact our team for an exact quote for your address in Bodega Bay.
Coverage depends on truck size and the depth you need. A typical tri-axle dump truck carries about 12 to 14 cubic yards, which will cover roughly 1,900 to 2,300 square feet at a 2-inch depth; adjust upward for deeper applications. Use our material calculator or provide your square footage and desired depth to get a precise recommendation for Bodega Bay.
Generally no - 2 inches is too thin for a driveway surface on its own, especially in Bodega Bay's wet coastal climate. For light passenger-vehicle use, plan on a 3 to 4-inch surface over a well-compacted aggregate base, and 4 to 6 inches for heavier use. Proper base preparation and drainage are important here to prevent rutting and washout.
The beeping is usually the truck's backup alarm, a safety feature required for commercial vehicles during loading and unloading. You may hear it when drivers position vehicles on narrow Bodega Bay streets or driveways. If noise timing is a concern, request a preferred delivery window at checkout and add notes so the hauler can try to coordinate.
Choose angular, hard rock gravels that drain well—crushed rock or coarse pea gravel are good choices for the coast because they resist breakdown from salt and moisture. Avoid soft limestones or very fine sands that can compact and wash away in heavy rain. Also consider a layer of larger rock for base drainage if your site has poor soil or slope.
Possibly: coastal and county regulations can apply, especially near shorelines, sensitive drainage ways, or within homeowner associations. Check Sonoma County planning and any HOA rules before large deliveries or permanent changes to grading. Hello Gravel can coordinate delivery logistics, but securing permits and complying with local rules is the customer's responsibility.
Standard delivery is at least 2 business days, with next-day options available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee; timing depends on supplier and local hauler availability. Deliveries arrive by dump truck (often tri-axle); drivers will dump in the open area you designate but may not spread material—their ability to tailgate spread is at their discretion. Provide clear drop location and access notes in your order to help avoid delays on narrow Bodega Bay roads.
Measure the area (length x width) and pick a depth based on use (paths 2 inches, driveways 3-4 inches plus base). Use Hello Gravel's material calculator for an instant estimate or contact our team with project details and we will recommend material type, quantity, and delivery options tailored to Bodega Bay conditions. We can also advise on base prep, drainage, and local considerations to help your project last.
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.
