Why Millbrae Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Millbrae has a population of 21,120 and sits within a dynamic regional market that is part of a metro area of 7.9+ million residents. A steady 0.40% annual growth rate signals ongoing, manageable demand for home improvements and smaller construction projects rather than rapid development spikes; homeowners can expect consistent need for materials for landscaping, driveway repairs, garden upgrades, and minor structural work. With 204 sunny days per year and 49.77 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 9a, local projects must balance drought-tolerant planning with robust drainage. That combination favors quality bulk supplies—well-graded soils, stable base aggregates, moisture-resistant sands, and organic mulches—that perform through wet winters and dry summers. Regional sourcing matters here: materials that reflect local geology and weather patterns reduce maintenance and improve long-term performance across a range of typical homeowner projects.Popular Projects in Millbrae This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Millbrae Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Millbrae.
Start by matching performance to the task: consider drainage, slope, foot traffic, and appearance. For many projects, selecting between gravel, sand, dirt, stone depends on whether you need drainage and stability or a fine surface for planting and leveling. Regional sourcing means texture and color can vary in Millbrae, so use our material calculator and contact our team for guidance before ordering.
Choose materials that balance drainage, durability, and appearance for Millbrae's mild, sometimes foggy climate and occasional rain. Gravel, sand, dirt, stone mixes can provide good drainage and stability when properly graded and compacted; finer materials work better for smooth patios and paths. Consider slope and runoff on your property and ask our team for recommended mixes and installation tips.
Measure the area (length x width) and decide on the depth you need, then calculate volume (area x depth) to get cubic yards. Because gravel, sand, dirt, stone weigh differently, convert volume to tons using our online calculator or ask our team for an estimate. If you prefer, provide project dimensions and we can help estimate quantities and recommend a little extra to account for compaction and grading.
Delivery is available in Millbrae if your zip code (94030) falls within our service area; check availability at checkout. Standard delivery requires 2+ business days, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee, and many areas qualify for free delivery. Minimum order is 3 tons and delivery is made by local contracted dump truck fleets.
Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed. You can request spreading at checkout and the driver will assess safety and access upon arrival. If spreading is required, consider scheduling a professional landscaper or labor crew to ensure an even finish.
Permit requirements vary by project type and location, so check with the City of Millbrae planning or public works departments for rules on curb cuts, street blocking, or significant grading. Contractors should verify any local permits before work begins and factor permit timelines into project scheduling. Hello Gravel can provide delivery details to help with permit applications but cannot advise on local code compliance.
Millbrae's coastal influence, fog, and winter rain make drainage and erosion control important considerations, especially on sloped sites. Choose gravel, sand, dirt, stone combinations that promote runoff control, resist washout, and compact well where needed. For steep areas, plan for geotextiles, retaining features, or coarser material to stabilize surfaces and reduce maintenance.
Contractors should give exact delivery address, contact phone number, project access notes (driveway width, overhead clearance), preferred delivery date, and material specifications or gradation requirements. Indicate staging space and permit status so haulers can plan safe drop locations; this helps avoid delays and additional fees. Also confirm minimum order size (3 tons) and discuss next-day delivery needs early in the process.
Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest before the order is processed and dispatched. We will do our best to accommodate modifications, but changes are subject to supplier and hauler schedules and are not guaranteed. Review the order confirmation for timing and contact details to request updates quickly.
Natural materials vary by region, so color, texture, and gradation of gravel, sand, dirt, stone may differ from photos. If the material is substantially different from your expectations, contact our customer service promptly and we will work to resolve the issue in line with our policies. For visual preferences, note them in Order Notes at checkout to help suppliers match your needs when possible.
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.
