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.

Why Cherryland Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Cherryland is a growing community of 15,908 residents in Central-Alameda, California, experiencing steady change with a 2.50% annual growth rate. With 228 sunny days a year, 33.20 inches of rainfall, and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b, local yards and development projects face a mix of sun, seasonal rain, and soils that demand durable, well-draining materials. That steady population and metro demand—part of a broader 2.3+ million regional market—drives construction, landscaping, and driveway work. Homeowners in Cherryland look for quality aggregates that control erosion, shed stormwater, and stand up to sun and foot or vehicle traffic, so choosing the right gravel is often the difference between a low-maintenance yard and recurring repairs.Popular Projects in Cherryland This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Cherryland gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Cherryland.
A 10-yard load in Cherryland typically ranges from about $450 to $1,200 depending on gravel type (pea gravel, crushed rock, decomposed granite), local supplier rates, and delivery fees. Pricing in the Bay Area tends to be higher than inland California because of local hauling costs and demand. For an exact price, enter your zip code on Hello Gravel or request a quote — we show upfront pricing and delivery options.
Coverage depends on the truck size and desired depth: a standard tri-axle dump truck usually carries about 10-12 cubic yards (roughly 14-17 tons), which covers about 1,600-2,000 sq ft at 1 inch depth or 400-500 sq ft at 4 inches. In Cherryland, tight driveways or restricted access can affect how close the truck gets and where material is dumped, so coverage may vary. Use Hello Gravel's calculator or give us project dimensions for a precise coverage estimate.
In Cherryland you can estimate 1 cubic yard of gravel weighs about 1.3 to 1.5 tons depending on the type (crushed rock is heavier, pea gravel a bit lighter). One ton of gravel typically covers roughly 80-100 sq ft at a 1-inch depth or about 20-25 sq ft at a 4-inch depth. These are estimates; actual coverage varies with material density and compaction, so we recommend using our online calculator or asking for a supplier-specific number.
Amount depends on driveway width and desired depth. For a typical single-car driveway 20 ft long by 10 ft wide at a 3-inch depth, you need about 1.9 cubic yards (roughly 2.5-3 tons). If you want a sturdier base (4-6 inches) or a wider driveway, multiply the volume accordingly and check minimum order requirements — Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum.
A basic estimate for a 20 ft long, 10 ft wide driveway with 3 inches of gravel is $150 to $500 for materials delivered, depending on material type (pea gravel is usually cheaper than decorative crushed stone). Add optional costs for tailgate spreading, compaction, or higher-grade stone, and note Bay Area delivery and labor rates can increase the total. Get an exact quote on Hello Gravel by entering your address and material choice.
Pea gravel in Cherryland generally costs less than decorative crushed stone, but a full dump truck (about 10-12 cubic yards) can range from roughly $600 to $1,400 depending on supplier, season, and delivery distance. Pea gravel is sold by ton or cubic yard; Hello Gravel shows local supplier pricing and any delivery fees once you enter your zip code. Remember that minimum orders and truck access can affect the final price.
Locally in the Bay Area, base course or crushed recycled rock and standard pea gravel are often the least expensive options. Prices vary by supplier and demand, and reclaimed or recycled materials may cost less but can have more variation in color and size. Use Hello Gravel to compare local options and prices to pick the most budget-friendly gravel that still meets your project needs.
A well-installed gravel driveway can improve curb appeal and functionality, but it usually adds modest value compared with paved driveways. In Cherryland and broader Alameda County, value depends on finish quality, drainage, and neighborhood standards; premium decorative stone and proper installation will make a better impression. Consider long-term maintenance and appearance when deciding whether to invest in an upgraded gravel driveway.
Pea gravel looks attractive but can shift under vehicle tires, creating ruts and requiring more frequent regrading and topping. It is also harder to compact and can be noisy to walk on, and small stones can migrate into lawns or gutters in Cherryland's slopes and drainage areas. If you need a stable driving surface, consider a crushed stone base or stabilizer fabric under the pea gravel.
Most standard pickup beds hold about 1/2 to 1 cubic yard loose, so one full cubic yard may overhang or require multiple loads. A single pickup load is convenient for tiny projects, but Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order for delivery by dump truck, so for larger projects delivery will be the better option. If you plan to pick up material yourself, check local supplier pickup limits and tarp/weight rules for your vehicle.
Dump trailer capacity varies widely: a small utility dump trailer might hold 1-3 cubic yards (about 1.5-4.5 tons), while larger commercial trailers hold 6-10 cubic yards (roughly 8-15 tons). For Cherryland projects, confirm the trailer's cubic yard capacity and the material type with your supplier to estimate tons and whether the trailer meets local road limits. If you order through Hello Gravel, we arrange the appropriate truck size and show the expected tonnage.
Twenty tons of gravel is roughly 14-15 cubic yards, which will cover about 2,000-2,250 sq ft at a 1-inch depth, about 500-560 sq ft at a 4-inch depth, or about 333-375 sq ft at a 6-inch depth. Exact coverage varies with material density and compaction; steeper yards and erosion-prone spots may require extra depth. Use Hello Gravel’s calculator or provide dimensions for a tailored coverage estimate.
Buying in bulk during off-peak seasons and choosing local common materials like base gravel or pea gravel reduces unit cost. Consolidating delivery with neighbors, allowing flexible delivery windows, and selecting curbside dump (no spreading) can also lower price. Use Hello Gravel to compare multiple local suppliers at once to find the best combination of price and delivery.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible — orders are easiest to modify before they are dispatched to the supplier or truck. We will do our best to accommodate changes, but once materials are loaded or the truck is scheduled, changes may be limited and additional fees could apply. If you have access issues in Cherryland (narrow street, HOA rules), tell our team at booking to avoid delivery day problems.
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.
