Why Corona Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Corona is a growing Southern California community with a city population of 223,655 and a metro area population of 2.5+ million. The region is expanding at a measured rate of 0.40% annually, and its geography and climate help shape local building needs: 228 sunny days per year, annual rainfall of 34.25 inches, and USDA hardiness zone 8b support both suburban expansion and outdoor living improvements. That steady growth and favorable climate drive demand for reliable aggregates for driveways, patios, drainage projects, erosion control, and landscape beds. Homeowners in Corona often look for materials that balance durability with good drainage and low maintenance, so quality gravel is a common go-to for long-lasting, attractive exterior surfaces.Popular Projects in Corona This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Corona gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Corona.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but in the Corona area expect a rough delivered range of about $35 to $80 per ton for common gravels, and roughly $45 to $120 per cubic yard depending on density and type. Local factors such as distance from supplier in the Riverside-San Bernardino area, project access, and whether spreading is requested will affect the final price. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and shows upfront pricing at checkout once you enter your zip code.
For Corona's hot, dry conditions, 3/4" crushed rock, decomposed granite (DG), and angular crushed rock mixes are commonly recommended because they compact well and resist migration. Pea gravel and river rock look attractive but can shift and ravel on slopes or high-traffic driveways, so use them in low-traffic areas or with an edge restraint. Local suppliers often source materials that reflect Southern California geology, so color and texture may vary.
Contractor pricing varies, but expect additional labor and equipment fees beyond material delivery; spreading and light compaction typically add $30 to $100 per hour or a flat fee of $100 to $400 depending on the job size and whether heavy rollers are needed. Many hauling drivers will offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion but it is not guaranteed; full mechanical spreading and professional compaction are usually billed separately by contractors. Always get an itemized quote that separates material, delivery, spreading, and compaction.
Measure area length x width to get square feet, then multiply by desired depth in feet (for example, 0.25 ft for 3 inches). That gives cubic feet; divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Convert to tons by multiplying cubic yards by the material's weight factor (typical gravels are about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard); add 5-15% extra for compaction and waste, with the higher end for fines or heavy compaction.
Yes, Corona and many HOAs have rules about front-yard landscaping, permeable surface requirements, and decorative rock use; some HOAs restrict color or amount of hardscape. Check Corona city codes and your specific HOA covenants before ordering; your local planning or HOA office can confirm whether permits or design approvals are required. Hello Gravel can deliver materials, but customers are responsible for meeting local rules.
On sloped sites in Corona, use angular crushed stone or larger graded rock in lower terraces and install edge restraints, fabric underlayment, and drainage devices like French drains to slow runoff. For erosion control, 1/2" to 1-1/2" crushed rock blended with a coarser base layer is effective at breaking flow; avoid smooth river rock on steep slopes as it can roll. Consult a contractor for sites with significant grade to design proper sub-base and drainage.
In Corona's hot, dry climate, expect light maintenance annually or biannually: rake high spots, refill thin areas, and correct low spots where water pools. Resurface or add a top dressing when aggregate fines are significantly reduced, ruts form, or depth has decreased by about one third; that often occurs every 3 to 7 years for driveways depending on traffic. Regular inspection after rainy seasons helps catch erosion or washouts early.
Washed gravel is commonly available around Riverside-San Bernardino and is preferred where cleanliness and drainage are important; it is usually pricier than recycled or crusher-run material because washing removes fines. Recycled gravel and crushed concrete are often cheaper and fine for base layers or utility drives but may contain more fines and have different color/odor characteristics. Availability and price difference vary by supplier and proximity to processing facilities, so check Hello Gravel quotes for current local options.
Hello Gravel works with local suppliers and haulers serving Corona; delivery radius typically covers the Riverside-San Bernardino metro, but charges increase with distance and job difficulty. Our platform shows exact delivery costs once you enter your zip code and material choice; remember our 3-ton minimum and that 2+ business days is standard for scheduling. For next-day delivery, orders must be placed before noon CST and an extra fee may apply.
Drivers may perform limited tailgate spreading at their discretion and if site conditions allow, but this service is not guaranteed and depends on truck type and access. For consistent grading and compaction—especially for driveways or areas that require load-bearing surfaces—plan to hire a contractor with plate compactors or rollers. Ask for spreading at checkout and confirm with the driver on arrival, but budget separately for professional compaction if the project requires it.
Materials reflect regional geology, so gravel delivered to Corona will often show the characteristic colors and textures of Riverside-San Bernardino sources, which can include tan, brown, and reddish hues. Local climate—hot, dry summers and occasional heavy rains—affects binder performance and erosion, so choose angular, well-graded materials for stability. If color is important, add notes at checkout and ask suppliers for photos or samples before ordering.
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.
