Gravel: Low-Maintenance For Sunny Climates • Fast Gravel Delivery Across Metro
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.
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 Loma Rica Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Loma Rica's city population is 1.0+ million, and the surrounding metro area population is 2.5+ million, making this an active region for residential and light commercial projects. With a steady growth rate of 0.70% annually and a climate that averages 225 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, homeowners here balance sun-tolerant landscaping with a need for reliable drainage. The area's hardiness zone is 8b, which supports drought-tolerant plants and low-maintenance yards. Those factors drive steady demand for quality aggregates—driveways, French drains, and pathways all perform better with properly sized gravel that manages runoff, reduces erosion, and holds up under repeated use. Gravel is a practical choice for Loma Rica properties because loose stone sheds water quickly after storms and minimizes mud in areas with seasonal rain. For driveways, walkways, and drainage projects, well-graded gravel resists rutting, allows plant-friendly moisture balance in hardiness zone 8b, and endures long sun exposure. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and professional haulers so you get regionally sourced gravel on a schedule that works for your project. Order online, choose a delivery date, and rely on clear pricing and coordinated dump truck delivery; drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion.Popular Projects in Loma Rica This Season

Summer Tip: For Loma Rica's climate (225 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall), pick a well-graded, angular gravel for driveways and drainage and lay geotextile fabric underneath to prevent mixing with native soil. Order slightly more than your measured coverage to allow for compaction and grading.

Frequently Asked Questions - Loma Rica gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Loma Rica.
Delivered price in the Loma Rica area varies by type and distance from the source, but expect roughly $30 to $65 per ton for common gravel types. Heavier or decorative materials and long hauls can push the price higher; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and can provide an exact delivered quote for your zip code.
For driveways, angular crushed rock (3/4" to 1") is usually best because it locks together and sheds water from winter rains. Decomposed granite is a good choice for walkways and patios for a natural look, while pea gravel is fine for low-traffic decorative paths but not ideal for high-traffic driveways unless stabilized.
Estimated quantities assume compacted depths: 1-car driveway (12'x20') 3" to 4" thick needs about 3 to 4 tons; 2-car driveway (20'x20') needs about 5 to 7 tons. A 10'x10' patio at 2" to 3" depth needs about 1 to 2 tons. A 100 ft drainage trench (1 ft wide x 1 ft deep) typically requires about 5 to 6 tons, with narrower or shallower trenches needing less; use Hello Gravel’s calculator for exact results.
Possibly. Loma Rica falls under Yuba County jurisdiction and may have county rules or local HOA covenants about driveway surfacing, setbacks, or visible material changes. Check Yuba County planning and your HOA documents before ordering, and pull any required permits to avoid fines or rework.
Costs depend on scope and site access; rough local ranges are: base prep $1.00 to $3.00 per sq ft, geotextile $0.50 to $1.50 per sq ft, delivery $30-$100 per truck or $30-$65 per ton, compaction $0.50 to $1.50 per sq ft, and edge restraints $5 to $12 per linear foot. A small 1-car driveway installed by a pro in the Loma Rica area often runs from about $1,500 to $6,000 depending on prep and access; get local quotes for precise pricing.
With normal use in Loma Rica’s seasonal rainfall, expect to regrade and fill low spots after heavy winters or major storms — typically once per year for driveways with moderate use. Adding 1/2" to 1" of fresh gravel every 1-3 years keeps surfaces looking and performing well, while weed control and occasional compaction help extend life.
Yes, properly specified gravel and drainage features can be effective. Use larger angular rock (1"-3") or riprap in concentrated flow areas and on steep slopes, and pair gravel with geotextile fabric and swales or French drains to manage runoff during winter storms common in the Sierra foothill zone.
For French drains and drainage trenches, 3/4" clean crushed stone or 1/2" to 3/4" washed rock is standard because it allows water flow while resisting compaction. For slope stabilization or erosion protection, use larger angular rock (1"-3" or riprap) depending on slope steepness and flow velocity.
Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons and many local suppliers in West California can deliver within the same week depending on truck availability and location. Our standard delivery scheduling is 2+ business days, with a next-day option for orders placed before noon CST; availability varies by supplier and access to your property.
Gravel has the lowest up-front cost and better drainage for rural Loma Rica properties, but it requires regular maintenance (regrading, topping up). Asphalt and concrete offer smoother, lower-maintenance surfaces and longer service life when well installed, but they are more expensive up-front and can increase surface runoff during winter rains. Choose based on budget, desired maintenance level, and drainage priorities.
Stabilizers and plastic/metal grid systems can drastically reduce rutting and migration on steep or high-traffic rural driveways and make maintenance easier. Installed costs typically add $1.50 to $4.00 per sq ft (grids) or increase total project cost by roughly 25% to 100% compared with loose gravel, depending on the system and installer; they are a good investment where traction and washout are concerns.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
