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 Gilroy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Gilroy, with a city population of 63,151, sits at the edge of a growing West California metro that serves 2.5+ million people. The area’s measured growth (0.40% annually), Mediterranean-style climate, and mix of suburban and agricultural parcels drive steady demand for home landscaping and infrastructure work. With 228 sunny days annually and 34.25 inches of rainfall, homeowners balance drought-tolerant plantings with effective runoff management. That combination makes quality aggregates like gravel a common choice: gravel improves drainage, stabilizes pathways and driveways, and integrates well with native planting schemes. Homeowners choose locally sourced gravel for durability, color that matches regional stone, and predictable performance in Gilroy’s soils and sun exposure.Popular Projects in Gilroy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Gilroy gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Gilroy.
A typical full tri-axle dump truck delivery to the Gilroy area usually falls in a wide range depending on material and supplier; expect a delivered truckload to commonly cost between $400 and $1,200. Truckload size and exact pricing depend on the material type, local availability, and haul distance, and Hello Gravel requires a minimum order of 3 tons. For an exact price for your address, enter your zip code on our site or request a quote.
In West California around Gilroy, gravel commonly ranges from about $40 to $80 per ton and roughly $30 to $60 per cubic yard, depending on type (pea gravel, crushed stone, base material) and supplier. Prices vary with regional supply, seasonal demand, and delivery distance, so consider these as ballpark ranges. For a firm price, get a zip-code specific quote through our checkout or contact our team.
A 10x10 area is 100 square feet. At 2 inches you need about 0.62 cubic yards (roughly 0.93 tons) and at 4 inches about 1.24 cubic yards (roughly 1.85 tons), using a typical gravel conversion of about 1.5 tons per cubic yard. Always round up slightly to allow for compaction and slope.
Costs depend on driveway width and depth; as an example, a 20 ft by 10 ft driveway (200 sq ft) at 4 inches needs about 2.47 cubic yards (about 3.7 tons). Using a supply price range of $40 to $80 per ton, material alone would run roughly $150 to $300; add delivery and any labor for spreading/compaction which can add $100 to $400 depending on site access. Site prep, drainage work, and thicker base sections will increase cost, so request a quote for an accurate install price.
Two inches is usually too thin for a driveway that will see regular vehicle traffic. Contractors commonly recommend a compacted base of 4 to 6 inches of angular crushed stone for a stable driveway in Gilroy, with an optional 1 to 2 inch wearing layer of smaller gravel on top. Local clayey soils and winter rains mean good drainage and compaction (and sometimes geotextile fabric) make a big difference in longevity.
For driveways, a crushed stone base like 3/4" crushed stone or 1" minus (also called crush-and-run) is a common choice because it compacts well and resists movement; a finer top layer such as 3/8" or pea gravel can be used for appearance. Expect supply costs in the region to fall in the ranges noted earlier ($40 to $80 per ton) with crushed base materials toward the middle to upper side of that range. Ask for material names in your quote since local suppliers may use different terms.
Cheapest local options are often 'bank run' mixes, recycled base, or bulk pea gravel, which can cost less upfront but may require more frequent topping and maintenance. Crushed stone or crush-and-run costs a bit more but compacts into a stronger surface and generally lasts longer with less maintenance. If you want lower initial cost, budget for periodic regrading and topping to maintain performance.
Hello Gravel's service is designed for bulk delivery and our minimum order is 3 tons, so we do not typically deliver 50 lb bags; check local hardware stores for bagged quantities. For planning, a 50 lb bag of gravel is about 0.0167 cubic yards, so a 10x10 area needs roughly 37 bags at 2 inches and about 75 bags at 4 inches. Some local suppliers or landscape yards can sell smaller loads or palletized bags if you need fewer than a bulk truck.
One cubic yard of gravel covers about 162 sq ft at 2 inches, 108 sq ft at 3 inches, and 81 sq ft at 4 inches. One ton (roughly 0.667 cubic yards at a 1.5 ton/yd3 conversion) covers about 108 sq ft at 2 inches, 72 sq ft at 3 inches, and 54 sq ft at 4 inches. Use these figures to estimate needs and round up to allow for compaction and waste.
Hello Gravel delivers by dump truck (typically tri-axle) with standard delivery set at 2+ business days and a next-day option available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. A tri-axle dump commonly carries roughly 10 to 14 cubic yards (approximately 15 to 21 tons) depending on material and local truck specs; smaller 7x14 dump trailers used by some haulers hold about 2 to 3 cubic yards. Costs vary by material, quantity, and access; enter your zip code or contact our team for an accurate delivery quote and to request tailgate spreading at checkout (drivers will 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.
