Frequently Asked Questions - La Habra gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in La Habra.
A full tri-axle dump truck in the La Habra area typically carries about 10-14 cubic yards of gravel (roughly 13-18 tons depending on material). Typical delivered cost for gravel in La Habra ranges from about $40 to $90 per ton, so a full truckload commonly runs between roughly $520 and $1,620, depending on type, delivery distance, and any fees. Hello Gravel shows exact pricing at checkout and has a 3-ton minimum order.
Pricing varies by type, but most common gravels in La Habra cost roughly $40 to $90 per ton delivered. Specialty decorative gravels or colored rock may be higher, while bulk base materials can be on the lower end. Use Hello Gravel to see exact, up-to-date pricing for your zip code and desired material.
Coverage depends on depth: 1 ton of typical crushed gravel covers about 120 sq ft at 2 inches, about 80 sq ft at 3 inches, and about 240 sq ft at 1 inch. These are approximate figures for common crushed stone densities and are useful for quick planning. For precise needs, use a material calculator with the exact gravel type and compaction factor.
For light pedestrian paths or temporary surfaces, 2 inches may be fine, but 2 inches is generally not enough for a permanent vehicle driveway in La Habra. For passenger cars, aim for 3 to 4 inches of compacted top gravel over a well-prepared subbase, and 4 to 6 inches (or more) for heavier loads. Local soil and drainage conditions also affect thickness, so consider a proper base and compaction for longevity.
A layered approach works best: start with a compactable base such as 1 to 2 inch crushed rock or recycled base, then finish with 3/4 inch minus or 3/8 to 3/4 inch crushed rock for the top layer. 3/4 inch crushed stone locks together well and provides good drainage and traction for Southern California climates like La Habra's. Decorative rounded gravel is more attractive but can shift more under vehicles.
A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft. For a 4 inch depth you need about 5 cubic yards (roughly 6.5 to 7.5 tons) of gravel; at $40 to $90 per ton, material cost will typically be in the $260 to $680 range. Add installation costs, compaction, and any base material or hauling fees; Hello Gravel can provide a delivered-material price for your address so you can estimate the total project cost.
For landscaping spread at 2 inches, 1 ton covers about 120 sq ft; at 3 inches, about 80 sq ft. In La Habra's mild climate you can use these estimates for flower beds, paths, and low-profile projects, but factor in settling and compaction which can reduce coverage slightly over time. Always buy a little extra or consult Hello Gravel's calculator to account for slope and waste.
Basic crushed base or recycled aggregate (crushed concrete/road base) is typically the least expensive option for a driveway in La Habra. These materials compact well and provide a stable base, though they may be less visually appealing than decorative gravels. Prices vary by supplier and availability, so Hello Gravel can show local cheaper options in your area.
One cubic yard of common crushed gravel typically costs about $60 to $120 delivered in the La Habra area, depending on type and local availability. That range reflects typical densities and material types; decorative or specialty gravels are toward the higher end. For an exact delivered price, check Hello Gravel with your zip code.
A 50 lb bag of gravel contains about 0.02 cubic yards and will cover roughly 8 to 12 sq ft at a 1/2 inch depth, depending on stone size and compaction. Bags are convenient for small craft or potted-plant projects but are not cost-effective for larger areas where bulk delivery is far cheaper. For landscaping or driveways, order by the ton or cubic yard instead.
A typical tri-axle dump truck with 10-14 cubic yards will deliver enough gravel to cover about 2,000 to 4,000 sq ft at 1 inch, about 1,000 to 2,000 sq ft at 2 inches, or roughly 600 to 1,400 sq ft at 3 inches, depending on the exact truck size and gravel density. For most yard projects in La Habra you will rarely need a full truck unless covering a large area or deep depth. Hello Gravel lists truck sizes and tonnage so you can plan delivery and placement needs.
Cheaper alternatives include recycled concrete, crushed asphalt, or compacted decomposed granite, which can be less expensive depending on local availability. Mulch and bark are cheaper for purely ornamental uses but do not provide the same drainage and load-bearing properties as gravel. Consider the intended use and long-term maintenance when choosing a lower-cost material.
Measure the length and width of the area, decide the required depth in inches, and use the formula: cubic yards = (length x width x depth in feet) / 27. Convert cubic yards to tons (rough rule: multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to 1.5 depending on gravel density) or use Hello Gravel's online material calculator for precise results. Remember Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and will show delivery and material options for La Habra zip codes.
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.
We specialize in making the aggregate buying process as easy and seamless as possible by managing the process from end to end.
