Materials Available for Delivery
River Rock
Naturally rounded, decorative stone for landscaping, garden beds, and water features. Typically 1-2” in size, with options for larger sizes upon request. Comes in a variety of colors that vary based on location and natural stone availability, so please be sure to specify if you have color preferences.
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.
#57 Crushed Stone
Multi-use crushed stone for home & landscape projects. Ranging from ¾” to 1” in size, #57 stone is a versatile product used for concrete production, drainage applications, driveways, parking lots, and as base material under slabs and footings. Large enough to provide drainage but small enough to lock together when applied and create a stable base and a relatively smooth surface.
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.
Black Shredded Mulch
Rich black shredded hardwood mulch made from oak, hickory, and maple. Holds in moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your garden beds a bold look that makes green plants and colorful flowers stand out.

Why Graton Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Graton is a small community with a city population of 1,180, situated within a larger metro area that has a population of 7.9+ million. A modest growth rate of 0.40% annually suggests steady, predictable demand for home improvements and selective new construction rather than rapid building booms; homeowners and local contractors can expect gradual increases in renovation, landscaping, and small-scale development. The local climate—about 204 sunny days per year combined with an annual rainfall of 49.77 inches and placement in hardiness zone 9a—creates a need for materials that balance sun exposure and wet-season performance. Practically, that increases demand for durable base materials, well-draining aggregates, quality topsoil and mulch, and erosion-control supplies. Regional sourcing means texture and color will vary, so having access to consistent, properly graded bulk materials helps projects perform longer in Graton’s mixed sun-and-rain climate.Popular Projects in Graton This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Graton Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Graton.
Homeowners and contractors in Graton typically choose materials for function and appearance, such as mixes used for base layers, topcoats, drainage, and planting beds. Materials like gravel, sand, dirt, stone are chosen based on load needs, drainage, and desired look. Regional sourcing means color and texture can vary from what you see online, so request notes at checkout if appearance matters.
Choose materials based on the project's purpose: load-bearing mixes for driveways, permeable mixes for drainage, and smoother finishes for patios and walkways. Consider compaction, slope, and local rainfall when selecting a material so it performs well through West California wet seasons. Use Hello Gravel's material calculator and aggregate quiz or contact our team for help matching products to your project.
Plan quantities using a material calculator to convert area and depth into tons or cubic yards; Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons. Exact weight per cubic yard varies by material and moisture, so use the online calculator or contact us with your project dimensions for an accurate estimate. Ordering a bit extra (5-10%) helps account for compaction and grading adjustments.
Standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Delivery costs depend on distance, quantity, and site access; we offer transparent pricing in checkout and sometimes free delivery in local zones. Choose your preferred delivery date on the checkout calendar and add notes about site access to help the driver.
Yes, Graton's rural roads and narrow driveways can limit truck access; weight limits, soft shoulders, low clearances, and steep or gated driveways may restrict where a dump truck can safely offload. Add detailed site notes and photos at checkout so we can match the right truck and hauler to your job. Drivers may offer limited tailgate spreading at their discretion, but it is not guaranteed.
Graton and West California have wet winters and mild summers, so schedule installations in drier months for easier compaction and grading. Avoid deliveries during heavy rain to reduce muddy conditions and tracking; consider erosion control on sloped sites during the rainy season. For planting or seeding projects, plan material delivery to align with local planting windows and weather forecasts.
Permits and HOA rules vary by project and location; changes that alter drainage, curb cuts, or create new hardscape may require county permits or HOA approval. Check with Sonoma County planning and your HOA before ordering, especially for work near property lines or public right-of-way. Hello Gravel can help with delivery logistics but cannot approve permits or HOA decisions.
Contact Hello Gravel as soon as possible to request changes; modifications are easier before your order is processed or dispatched. If there is an issue at delivery, contact customer service promptly and we will work to resolve it in line with our policies. Keep photos and detailed notes handy to help our team assess the situation quickly.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.
