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 Laytonville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Laytonville is a small community with a city population of 1,570 and a steady growth rate of 1.00% annually. Its temperate, sun-forward climate—about 228 sunny days per year with 34.25 inches of annual rainfall and a USDA hardiness zone of 8b—creates specific needs for outdoor projects and ongoing maintenance. Homeowners here are often managing gravel driveways, erosion control, and low-water landscaping that must stand up to sun exposure and periodic rain. That local context drives demand for dependable, well-graded gravel that improves drainage, resists washout, and reduces maintenance over time. For many Laytonville DIYers, sourcing quality aggregates means fewer returns to the store, better long-term results, and materials that match the local soil and aesthetic. Gravel works well in Laytonville because it sheds water while allowing airflow to soils that can dry quickly after rain in a sunny climate. Well-graded crushed gravel is useful for driveways, drainage trenches, pathways, and base layers for patios or planters in this area. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and haulers so the material reflects Laytonville’s regional geology and performs as expected. We make ordering easy online, schedule delivery windows, and coordinate local dump-truck delivery so homeowners get the right gravel for their project without the hassle of sourcing and logistics.Popular Projects in Laytonville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Laytonville gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Laytonville.
Delivery cost in Laytonville varies with supplier distance, road access, and order size. Many local suppliers in Mendocino County offer free or low-cost delivery for nearby drops, but for remote hauls or constrained access you should expect an additional fee commonly in the $75 to $250 range. Check your zip code on our site or request a quote to see exact pricing for your address.
For steep, rainy hills around Laytonville, use clean, angular rock such as 3/4" crushed rock or 1" drain rock for good water flow and interlock, and larger riprap (2" to 6") in channels or washed gullies for erosion control. Combine rock with geotextile fabric and proper grading to direct water; decomposed granite or fines alone are not sufficient for major drainage or slope protection. Local suppliers can recommend mixes that reflect nearby geology and perform well in Northern California rainfall patterns.
Tonnage depends on width and depth. For a common 100-foot by 12-foot driveway: about 10 tons for a 2" top dressing, about 16 tons for 3", and about 21 tons for 4". These are estimates; compacting, base layers, and local material density can change the number, so we recommend getting a quote or ordering a bit extra to allow for compaction and spreading.
Suppliers commonly use the rule of thumb that 1 cubic yard of gravel weighs about 1.4 tons, so 1 ton is about 0.7 cubic yards. Actual weight varies by material type, moisture, and rock density, so suppliers may use slightly different conversion factors. When in doubt, ask your Hello Gravel quote what conversion that supplier uses so you can order the right amount.
Our minimum order is 3 tons and deliveries are typically made by tri-axle dump trucks operated by local haulers. Drivers can often drop material to the side of the road or in your driveway, but tailgate spreading is at the driver's discretion and dependent on access and safety. If your property has narrow roads, weight limits, or low-hanging wires, tell us at checkout so we can coordinate with the hauler.
Clear a 12-foot-wide path for the truck, remove low branches and overhead obstructions, and designate a drop location that is stable and private. If your road is steep, soft, or on a county-maintained lane, check for any local permit or weight restrictions before delivery. Add a note at checkout about access issues and request a photo or pre-delivery call if you need the driver to assess the site first.
Gravel reflects the local geology, so color, grain size, and mix can vary across Mendocino County and around Laytonville. Photos are representative but not exact; if color or texture is important, add your preference in Order Notes and ask for a nearby sample before delivery. If the material differs significantly from your order, contact our customer service and we will work with the supplier to resolve it.
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.
